Tate and Violet- Forever Yours

Chapter 26

Violet

I'm glad me and mum are back on good terms.

I did really miss all the small things that we would do together. However talking about my love life is NOT one of those things.

Somehow she thinks I have a crush on Michael.

Hideous I know right especially seen as I consider him to be more of a cousin or like a brother to me.

Oh don't even get me started about all the little side looks she gives me, or how when I tell her that I don't like him like that, she starts to smile. And then she asks me if there are any "other" boys I have my eye on.

Mum still doesn't know that I'm back on speaking terms with Tate.

To be honest I am scared of how she will react.

It didn't take much to set the ticking time bomb she had with Dad off. I don't want this all to blow up in my face, so I'm just going to wait for things to calm down a. bit

Arrh what happened to me?

I'm talking too my self like a crazy old woman, and to make it even worse I'm thinking about boys.

I'm 37 for goodness sake and yet here I am blubbering away like a love sick teenager.

I think I need to be sick.

Well I suppose It could be worse.
But thinking about how cringy I'm acting now is not going to help anyone let alone myself.

I think I should try and distract myself from acting like such a girly girl, time to see what Michaels up to.

Roaming through the house I find Michael sitting in his bedroom watching TV.

"Hey Michael! What are you watching?"

Looking around his room I spot a large flashy tv that seems out of place compared to his very minimilistic bedroom.

The carpet is a light shade of grey, and the walls are bare and plan white. The only thing I can see in his room was a small.single bed, a wooden closest and a small writing desk and a chair.

And yet he has this big ass TV, somehow it doesn't fit in.

"Nothing much just the history channel"

I turn towards the tc and see the adverts for some sort of shampoo is on.

Well it looks like TV adverts still haven't changed in the past 20 years .

It still shows some beautiful semi naked woman with really long hair making sexual nosies when in the shower.

Thanks TV for corrupting the minds of sweet innocent children.

"I didn't know you liked history"

Michael turned around from looking at the TV and stared at me as I stood in the door way.

I feel a history lecture coming on , oh great what have I got myself into?

"I don't just like history, I love it.
It's powerful and the greatest tool anyone can use. Think of all thoes people who argued , fought and sacrificed their lives for you to be standing exactly where you are today. Think about all the evil dictators and monarchs who were brutal and mass murdered hundreds and thousands of people. Doesn't it get your body tingling thinking about all the people in the past used to commit canablisim and eat the flesh of children.
History is a part of all of us, it has a hold on all of us and it sure as hell is interesting ."

OK. That was a bit unexpected and slightly fucked up. However all that dark shit seems slightly appealing.

Is that why people like history because it appeals to their dark side. The side that craves violence gore.

"So, what are we watching"

Walking into Michaels's room, I walk to his bed and take a seat next to him.

I wonder what Tate's doing right now?
Is he thinking about me?
Or does he not even notice I'm not there?

Violet, you have to stop thinking about Tate and just hang out with Michael.

Oh and while your at it you might as well stop talking to yourself.

"Wanna a sweet"

Michaels holding a massive bowl filled with a mixture of soo many different types of sweets. Chocolates, strawberry laces, gummy bears, flying sauces, sherbert, lolly pops , little candy sticks and soo much more sweet things.

"Forget about one sweet I'll have the whole bowl"

Taking the bowl from his hand I place it on my lap but Michael doesn't say anything he just pulls something out from under his bed.

A massive packet of mixed sweets.

How much candy does this boy have?

Actually no don't tell me it would probably blow my mind.

Oh goody the stupid adverts have finished.
