They haven't stopped calling me, Aiden and Owen. I haven't had the guts to answer either one of them because of what happened last night. The images are vivid and my heart still hurts from the betrayal.
If only Aiden knew the reason behind me not answering, he'd surely feel the same way, and his reaction would be totally different from mine. Owen hurt me and I don't want to see him right now.
I'm still shocked by his actions, how he could even react in such a way and have no regret right after. It's as if all time I'd expressed or spilled about what that bastard did to me, did not matter to him.
I'm so confused, but not enough to seek answers right now.
A clear mind, that's what I need.
Something to clear my mind off things is what Wesley intended on providing for me. I'd already told him about not feeling up to heading home just yet, and like the friend he is, no further discussion was ne
My heart thuds against my chest when I notice him leaning in again.I push at his chest, my hands resting there ." Where's the bathroom? " I ask."Let me show you." He says, eyes closed." No, I- I'll look for it myself. " I mutter, moving from under his outstretched arm and heading over to the pile of clothes on the bed." I didn't know what you would have preferred, so ------------ "" So you brought the whole closet." I tease him, trying to lighten the mood." Too much?" He comes over to stand next to me, peeking a look at me as he rubs at the back of his neck.I nod, an amused smile coming onto my face.I start looking through the clothes, only to notice a piece of lace. I turn to face him with a raised brow, holding up a piece of lingerie in between my fingers.I swear, that I've never seen so much red on a guy's cheeks, like right now, when he takes note of what's in my hand." Anita gave me th
I silently watch him pace up and down in front of me, his jaw set tight and hands clenched into fists." Wes --------"" Don't, " he holds up his hand to silence me. " I need a minute." He says, continuing on pacing." Just don't get yourself worked up about this."" Don't get myself worked up - how the f*ck am I not suppose to, when someone you trusted, actually hi -------------" he huffs, not being able to finish his sentence.Seeing him like this, all bothered by what he's heard, for some reason plays at my heart. It actually reminds me that I haven't had many people worry about me, nor have I opened up the door for them to show me that they care.So to see him like this, plays with my emotions and that makes me scared a bit.I sigh, taking off the shoes and moving on further on the bed to lay in the center, on my back. There's a moment of silence where I'm staring at the ceiling, trying to get ahold of my emotions and
I hear him enter his bedroom but I don't bother to look his way. I just continue staring at the wall, as I lay on my side." Chloe?" I don't answer.I hear him sigh before the bed dips behind me, telling me that he's joined me yet I refuse to acknowledge him.I'm still very much upset with him, he went to my house without talking to me first, he just had to get himself involved. With the time I've gotten to know Wesley, he's not exactly one to think before he does something when upset, or feeling hyped.I can't even be sure of what he may or may not have done, if he bumped into Owen." What was the purpose of you going there?" I ask." To see Owen and maybe punch him in the face." I tense up." Well, did you?" I ask." No, Your brother knocked some sense into me," my body releases all tension." What? Didn't think I had it
"Will you finally tell me where we are going?" I ask, glancing at him after my curiosity gets the best of me.I mean he pretty much asked me to be his ditching Buddy, the least he owed me is knowledge of where we were headed to." Away from there," he says, not giving me the answer I'm looking for.I decide to not ask any further, but let to him have his way for now. For the rest of the trip we remain in silence, and all I do is watch trees become the only thing, I get to see around us.Entering into a dirt road brings a frown upon my face. We've long gone a little way out of town, this trip reminding me of times Aiden and I ran. When at a distance, a beautiful cabin house comes into view, I steal a glance Wesley's way." I needed to get away," he says, the minute he parks in front of the cabin house, which is beautiful by the way and quite big." Are we trespassing?" I as
" Is it here already? " I ask Anita, when I notice her in the kitchen, ignoring the sound of footsteps chasing after me.She turns around, wiping her hands dry." Well yes -------------" I don't even wait for her to finish, before starting for the door." Chloe, wait!" I hear him call after me, but I ignore him.Right when I reach the door, I open it, only for it to suddenly get slammed shut, I'm soon spun around and caged between the door and a panting Wesley." Wait."" Leave me alone Adams." I say in warning, trying to push him back but his hands on my shoulders, prevent me from doing anything." You're mad at me," he states." And I wonder why?" I arch my brow." Look, I just ----------"" You used me Wesley, you bloody used me!" This time when I push him away, he staggers back in surprise.
" Language, Chloe!" One of them scolds me, and I definetly identify him as the real Owen.Owen literally hates any foul language coming out my mouth, whenever he scolds me, he scolds me like a father would have done.Owen, the real Owen without the cap, steps forward." I'm happy that you are back. We've been so worried about you. I've been ------------"" Who is he?" I ask, gesturing to the stranger that looks identical to him.The stranger, wearing a cap, which reminds me of that night, steps forward, and I don't miss the cut on his lip." He is my twin brother, Davin." Owen answers, not tearing his eyes away from me.Since when?I didn't know that he had a twin brother, one who's violent when drunk, just like Luis." Hello Chloe." Davin says, holding out his hand.I don't shake his hand but look at him.
" Not even a goodmorning or goodbye, you're just going to leave?" He asks, speaking up and breaking the tense silence that had taken over." Morning." I mumble, not meeting his eyes." Chloe, I'd like for you to look at me when we are talking."No, that's one thing I can't do right now. I'm embarassed about everything right now.He sighs when I don't look at him." Chloe." He steps forward and that's when my head snaps to him.Before either one of us can say anything, we hear footsteps come downstairs." I have to go." I say, quickly getting out of the house before both of them say anything.I sigh and head down the porch steps, to meet Wesley, who stands leaned by his car." Morning." I say, heading over to get into the passenger seat." Morning." He calls over his shoulder.When we both
" You aren't ready yet?" Aiden's voice knocks me out of my thoughts.I glance away from the window and turn to him. " No, I uh........" I pause when I notice him glance down to my exposed arms." I won't do it again, you know." I mumble, walking over to my bed to take my gown, so as to cover up.He sighs, earning my eyes." I don't like the fact that you did it in the first place." He mentions." Will it make it all better if I tell you that it was my first time doing it?""Knowing that it was the last time, eases me." He says, not tearing his eyes away from my arms, even though I have covered them." Aiden, they will disappear soon." I say, mentioning the marks." I know that." Somehow he looks like he doesn't believe his own words." What's the problem, Aiden?" I ask through a sigh." You did it, that's
