My eyes grow wide thinking of my words over and over again.
Angela found my phone, along with the body and she reported the body.
While I'm in my own world I hear Belle groan and see her knee start up its bouncing out of the corner of my eye.
I hate it so much. I figured out that every time she's nervous, all she knows how to do is play with her hands and bounce her fucking knee. It pisses me off.
Before I can slap my hand on it for the hundredth time today, the door flies open.
My eyes lock with an officers as he points at me.
"You. Your dad is here to pick you up," he says before looking over at Belle, "You, I don't have anyone listed as legal guardian. You call someone and have them take you home" he says giving her back her phone.
She looks down at it before looking back at me, I already know she has no one to call. "I got you, cmon."
We follow the officer out of the room and I see my dad, looking more angry than ever. He notices Belles smaller body behind me and his eyes soften.
He looks her up and down when he realizes she's with me, "Who's your friend, Miles?" he smacks on his gum.
She looks around the police station nervously, too distracted to even hear my fathers words. I just roll my eyes at him and pull on Belles arm, dragging her to the car.
I walk over to the car, Belle already heading towards the backseat. I open the passenger door to see my red headed little sister already sitting down.
She doesn't take her eyes off her iPad as she points to the back seat with a free hand. I groan, knowing arguing with Summer was useless because she always gets her way.
I sit in the backseat with Belle while my dad takes his time getting in the front.
I kick the back of my sisters seat, "Miles! You ass! You made me lose!" She shouts at me.
"Aye! No swearing, Summer" my dad slaps her arm while getting in the drivers seat. Belle doesn't even acknowledge it. I can basically hear the music blasting in her headphones from here.
I rip one of them out of her ear, "Um hello? Do you have no manners" she insults me as I ignore her and stick the headphone in my ear.
"Yeah, Miles. Do you have no manners?" Summer repeats from the passenger seat. I bop my head to the extremely loud Taylor Swift sound while I stick my finger in Summers ear.
Summer turns around out of fury and punches me straight in the thigh. "Jesus Carrothead! I'm already injured enough back here!" I react to the pain shooting up my entire right side.
"Karma, idiot" Summer mumbles, turning back to her game. Belle snatches the headphone out of my ear.
I look at her blankly as she shrugs at me. I pull my own phone to see it only blown up with texts from Angela last night, wondering where I was.
"So what are we gonna do about little miss thing in the back there?" My father speaks, changing his rear view mirror to angle at her.
With the music so loud in her ears, she doesn't even budge at the question. "She's just going to stay with us for the night" I say looking over at her to see her just staring out the window.
"Ah. New girlfriend already?" He asks turning around to look at me. I roll my eyes at him in response.
"I'm not judging you buddy, just cool it on the women. But I suggest you keep this one around. Pretty little thing" he says while turning his eyes to look at Belle through the mirror and I feel my mouth fill with disgust.
I glare at the back of his head as Summer doesn't even acknowledge his words, trying not to die in her game.
I know Belle secretly doesn't want to go back to her own house. Common sense tells me that her and her brother don't have an awesome relationship and she's just gonna end up paranoid the whole night if she's all alone. She might hate me when she realizes she's not going to be sleeping in her bed tonight, but I'd rather her hate me than have her anywhere else.
The rest of the car ride remains silent, besides Summer randomly grunting angrily every now and then.
Once we pull up to my house, my dad immediately rushes out of the car to open Belles door for her. She looks up at him confusedly while mumbling a quiet thank you.
My tongue swipes over my teeth in annoyance. "Miles, get my skateboard in the trunk" Summer says, grabbing her bookbag and iPad before leaving inside. I sigh and pull out her skate board.
Belle meets me in the back of the car while I eye my father. "Why am I here?" She whispers to me while I shut the trunk.
"You're staying here tonight" I say bluntly before just walking off. She runs up next to me a couple seconds later.
"No, I'm not. Why didn't you drop me at home?" She asks and I just ignore her, walking up the long pathway to my front door.
"Miles, I'm so serious right now. Remember when I told you that there isn't a 'we' and that it's time to part our ways? This is that time" she whisper shouts considering my dad isn't far behind us.
"It can be over tomorrow then. You're staying the night" I say casually. She dramatically scoffs.
"So what? You're gonna just kidnap me because this is kidnapping" she says.
"That's a little melodramatic don't you think, Bells?" I tease, looking over at her with raised eyebrows.
"You're not funny. And I'm not kidding. I have to get home incase my brother comes home. He-" she says, but I decide to cut her off.
"No. None of that bullshit because we both know you hate him and his presence" I snap at her, stopping in my tracks.
She stares at me. Not denying it, proving my thoughts.
"No I don't. You don't know anything about me" She lies.
"I don't have to know anything. You hated me being outside of your room this morning and it wasn't because you were worried about me. Glass literally broke after you wandered off to have a simple "chat" with him. Your living room is trashed and I know you're not crazy enough to do that all on your own. So forgive me if I don't want you sleeping in the same house as him, nevermind provide him with care and food" I let out all at once.
Her fast pace beside me slows down while I keep walking, leaving her behind. She can kick and scream at me all she wants. She's not leaving for the rest of the night.

RomanceI take her small hands in mine, "I cant believe you've killed people with these hands. So soft, delicate" I say twirling her around and pulling her into me. "Don't underestimate them. They can wrap around your neck and take the breath right from you...
