My Story

Chapter Fifty-Five

"Mirana wake up you have to go to school!" Sébastien yelled.
"I don't want to I want to sleep." I put a pillow over my head. He dragged me out of the bed and I got up so fast.
"I'm staying home." I looked at him with some of my hair in my face.
"No you're going to school." He walked away.
I got dressed and walked to school.

I was late I missed three of my classes.
"Mirana can you come here please." The squeaky voice from my teacher said.
I walked up to her.
"Yes?"
"It says you weren't hear first, second or third periods. Why is that."
"I woke up late." I said and walked back to my desk.
I got out my journal and my pen.
Today we were writing notes. This was my writing class and we were writing notes. How in the world were we supposed to take notes and do our assessment today. I just kept writing the notes till the bell rang.
"The writing assessment is for homework now."

I wanted to go home. I was sitting with Anuel during lunch and he didn't even say much.
"Hello? Are you okay?" I asked.
"No me and Evelyn are done for good." He rested his head on the table and watched me eat.
"How can you eat at a time like this, my girlfriend just broke up with me." Some girl from another table turned around
"So that means you're available?"
Anuel shook his head, "no he is not he's just depressed."
"How do I look depressed."
"Well you aren't happy are you?"
"No." He said and I just stared at him.
He shook his head and looked away from me.
"Anuel, you know you and your brother are like well known at this school"
"No I did not."
"Boy you can have any girl from here. Yes you loved Evelyn but come on, when you are ready try to get with someone else. You might really like them."
"But what if Evelyn wants me back."
"Trust me it's better to move on then going back to someone who thinks of you second." I said going back to eat my food.
"You might be right" he stood up, "everyone I am single." He yelled excitedly. All the girls that were in here all screamed.
"What did I tell you. Every girl here would love to be with you."
"I guess." He said shrugging.
"How are you and Sébastien doing?"
A tiny chuckle came out my mouth.
"Not good I'm assuming?"
"Not at all. He has been so distant lately and it pisses me off."
I saw Ezra sit down in front of us.
"Who's been distant?"
"Sébastien." I said looking up at him.
Ezra looked at Anuel and he just shrugged.
"What the fuck was that?" I said.
"What was what?" They both said.
"You two were clearly talking to each other like you both knew why he was ignoring me."
"I don't I just though Anuel would know, but when did he start ignoring you?"
"Couple weeks ago." I said.
"Oh look at that I have to go." Anuel said running away.
I was so confused.
"You guys really don't know anything?" I asked.
"I promise." Ezra said as he sat closer to me.
"Did you know Evelyn broke up with Anuel?"
"I did, I mean he should be okay he could have any girl in the school."
My eyes widened, "that's what I told him."
"Yeah, don't tell him this but Evelyn wants to get back with him and I told her to leave him alone."
"Did she tell you why."
"She made a mistake, but you can't make that big of a mistake over someone like that. I mean I did and now you're with my uncle."
"Woah woah, listen here buddy." I started to say.
"No no I know it was all my fault. I know and I'm sorry, but I mean you are making my uncle happy as from what I can see. It's good for him I just remember him always getting in trouble."
"Yeah he would." I said shaking my head.

**********

I was back home and there was a car parked in the driveway.
"Was he inviting someone over?" Ezra asked.
"I don't know." I said gripping my bag as I felt tears come out.
"Hey what's wrong?"
"Ezra, when he lived at his old house that car was there. We had like a tiny argument and when I came out of my room that woman was there. Just hanging out with him in the living room."
"Do you want me to get out with you?"
"No I don't want to be here." I said hugging my bag to my chest.
"You have the number so I can go in?"
I gave him the number to the door so he could go inside.
I waited about 30 minutes and Ezra came back. He looked angry. Once he got in the truck his hand had blood on it.
"Ezra what did you do?"
"Nothing." His voice sounded deeper, he was angry.
"Ezra did you hit Sébastien?" I asked.
He looked over at me then looked away.
"Ezra, what did you do to him."
I got nothing from his. I grabbed my stuff and got out of the car. I ran to the door and I heard Ezra drive off.
When I got inside I saw Sébastien on the floor with that woman.
"Sébastien?" I whispered. "Get away from him." I told the woman.
I got by Sébastien's side and his poor cheek had a cut on it.
"Baby, what did he do to you." I said sitting him up and hug him.
"You should've punched him back." The woman said.
"Excuse me if you know anything about Sébastien, you would know he wouldn't do anything to hurt his nephews." I said hugging him. He whined in pain.
"Baby?" I said tears building up in my eyes.
"I'm okay." he said kissing my forehead.
"But your not. Look at you, I can't even hold you without it hurting you."
"She's right babe you need to go to a hospital or something." The woman said and my blood began to boil inside me
"Who the fuck are you?" I asked, I felt Sébastien grab onto me.
"I'm his girlfriend." She said in a duh tone.
"Oh his girlfriend," I smiled pushing Sébastien off of me. "So your weren't gonna try and protect him? You were just gonna let him get beat by his own nephew?" I asked walking closer to her.
"There was nothing I could do..."
"Oh there was plenty you could've done, but you did nothing." I glared at her.
"You think I'm scared of you? You're a kid that no one can love."
I just stared at her.
"Mirana don't, just leave her alone." Sébastien said.
I walked away I got my phone out of my pocket when I was going up the stairs to pack my shit.
"Hello?"
"Hey Sam can you come pick me up?" I asked tears streaming down my face.
"Of course what's wrong sweetie?"
"I don't want to be here with Sébastien anymore." I cried getting my things together.
"Okay I'll be right there." She said and hung up.
I packed my laptop and iPad in the same bag. The I got a separate bag for some of my clothes which I have to go into Sébastien's room for that. I just grabbed a few things and then headed downstairs.
"Baby, where are you going?"
"I'm going home." I said walking out the door.
I waited outside for Samantha only to be greeted by that woman.
"Where are you going?" She asked.
"None of your business." I said glaring at her.
"Mirana." Sébastien said. "Where are you going?"
"I told you I'm going home."
"You are home."
"No I'm at your home, it's not mine it's yours. My home is with your sister and that's where I'm going."
"Baby can we talk about this."
"You mean me Sébastien? When are you gonna propose to me?" The woman said.
"Ali I'm not even talking to you." He said "I told you to leave yet you are still here." He sounded so frustrated.
"Listen Sébastien, me and you were together before you met her." She said. I looked over at Sébastien who was just looking at me.
I heard a car pull up and I started walking to the car then Sébastien grabbed my arm.
"Baby, please don't leave me."
"Sébastien get your hand off her. I see you and Ali are still in your little cahoots." Sam said.
"Sam, you already know I want nothing but Mirana."
"Yes but she wants to come home so I'm taking her. Oh Ali get off my brothers property before I call the cops on you."
She took off to her car and left. Samantha walked up to Sébastien and slapped him.
"How can you do this to her! Huh? I let her stay with you, you tell me you love her and you bring Ali over?" Sébastien head fell down in defeat.
"Sébastien I even gave you my fucking blessing and for what? For you to screw it all up. I don't think so."
"Samantha please let her stay here." He grabbed her hand.
"Sébastien, no she called me crying saying she didn't want to be here anymore. So I'm taking her."
"Mirana please." He looked at me. "Please stay." I shook my head.
"Baby please I'm sorry I've been distant from you and there is a good reason for that."
"A good reason. There's no good reason why you've been ignoring me."
"Sébastien you can tell her, but it's not gonna change her mind." Samantha said.
I looked him in his eyes and I could feel tears forming.
"I'll be back, just please don't leave." He said walking away.
I looked over at Sam, "I'll let you hear what he has to say. Either after you can stay or you can go with me." She said.

Sébastien came back out.
"Mirana listen I just wanted to say that the reason I've been distant and ignoring you is because I'm trying to work up the courage to ask you to marry me."
"What?"
He pulled out a small little box and opened it handing it to me.
"Why would you want to do that?" I asked looking at the ring that was inside the box.
"Mirana I love you. I want you. Me inviting Ali over has nothing to do with me wanting to get back with her. I just call her over to help me plan shit out. She knows I adore you and everything. She knows how I feel about you and she hates you, but I don't care because I want you."
"Sébastien I'm only sixteen. You know that right?"
"Yes I do but I love you." He said falling to his knees.
I looked over at Samantha, she had her hand covering her mouth.
"Why are you covering your mouth?" I asked.
"Because I didn't know he got you this ring." She said.

The ring has two diamonds one shaped like a heart and one shaped like an almond. The almond shaped one was my mothers birthstone.
I felt tears build up in my eyes.
"Sébastien you didn't have to do that." I cried.
"But I wanted too. Mirana I love you and that's what I wanted to do for you."
I got down and hugged him he held on to me tightly. "Please don't leave Mirana."
I looked up at Sam, " I think I'm gonna stay but I'll call you if I need anything." I told her.
"Okay. Have fun." She said walking to her car.
"You want to go inside baby?" I said to Sébastien.
He smiled, "yes." He said kissing me.

I stood up and then Sébastien did picking me up and going inside.
