My Best Friends Step Brother//Tom Holland

Oooo Laura!

I walk into Laura's room, and see her texting someone.

Sharni - Who are you texting?

Laura - A girl...

Sharni - Spill....

Laura - You spilled about you and Tom when I went to the bathroom. You guys couldn't look at each other when I came back.

Sharni - A girl never kisses and tells.

Laura - You just did.

Sharni - I know. That was the point of that saying. Stoopid

Laura - No you are stoopid.... Ohhhhh, I get it now!

Sharni - As I said, You stoopid... I love you.

Laura - So you kissed him?

Sharni - Yes.

Laura - Tongue?

Sharni - Yes, and girl, he was amazing.

Laura - I'm sorry Ew, shouldn't have asked, but good for you. I'm happy for you, but if he breaks your heart. I will physically break him.

Sharni - No you won't, you're weak.

Laura - I know I am... But he is legally my brother so I can do whatever I want to him.

Sharni - I don't think so...

Laura - Shhhhh.... Yes... It's a threat, you see, so he doesn't hurt you.

Sharni - Your crazy, you know that.

Laura - That's why you love me!

Sharni - You are something else.

Laura - You're something else.

Sharni - Anyway, spill about this girl you're talking to...

Laura - Her name is Dove.

Sharni - Have a photo? How old is she? Is she even from our school? Wait, when were you gay? You never told me you were into girls...

Laura - I've liked girls forever. I tell you all the time that I would fuck Lydia in heart beat all the time.

Sharni - I thought you meant as a joke... Soooo Have a photo? How old is she? Is she even from our school?

Laura - Haha well. Here is a photo of Dove. She is 19, and she graduated last year.

Sharni - She's pretty!

Laura - You might remember her, before she got her lips and cheeks done.

She showed me a photo of her before the surgery.

Sharni - Oh I remember her, she was the one who always got the lead role in musicals.

Laura - Yeah, talented fuck. I actually am falling for her. But you know what my mom is like about the gays.

Sharni - I know, but she might have a different mind set now that she's with Domonic.

Laura - That is true, but I'm still scared.

Sharni - Can we tell her together?

Laura - She'll think I'm gay for you.

Sharni - Yeah... I didn't think about that....

Laura - I'll tell her now... While you're here, you can stay with Tom.

We go downstairs and see Ella and Domonic in the kitchen and Tom sitting on the couch, on his phone. I sit next to him and Laura asks if she can talk to Ella alone. Dominic joins us on the couch. I can just hear what she is saying.

Laura - Hey mom.

Ella - Hey sweetie. What's up?

Laura - Um...

I look and see she is fidgeting with her fingers and looks like she's going to cry.

Ella - What's wrong?

Laura - I'm gay...

Ella laughs and Laura keeps a straight face.

Ella - Oh you're serious... No your not gay. Your being stupid.

Ella waved her hand with disregard and continued cooking. Laura turned Ella around.

Laura - No I'm not mom. I actually like girls.

Ella - You can't be gay. How am I meant to have grandbabies?

Laura - IS THAT ALL YOU THINK ABOUT? There are other ways mom.

Ella - ... If your going to be gay, get out of my house...

Laura - Are you serious... Dad would've accepted me...

Ella - Don't you dare bring him up...

Laura - Your the one that fucking moved on.

Ella - You're the one that didn't.

Laura - This is why I didn't move on, because I feel like even though he's gone, he's the only one in this family who would accept me.

Ella - Pack your shit and leave. You have 3 days.

Laura - Where am I supposed to go?

Ella - I don't care.

Laura - I hate you.

Ella - No you don't.

Dominic - You're being a bit over the top, Ella.

Ella - I didn't raise my daughter to like girls.

Dominic - But it's the 21st century. Things are different.

Laura - Thank you Dom.

Dominic - Look. Don't kick her out. Meet the girl she's talking to and see what you think.

Laura walks to her room.

Sharni - It's my time to go.

Tom - Ok, before you go. Check on Laura, please. I can't handle crying girls.

Sharni - Ok.

I kiss his cheek without thinking. I got to Laura's bedroom door and realised what I did to Tom... Oh my god...

Sharni - Laura, It's me.

Laura - Go away. I just want to be alone.

She then walks out of her room and walks to her car.

Sharni - Laura, you're not emotionally stable to drive.

Laura - I'm going to Dove's house

I know I can't stop her, so I let her go.
