living with the bad boy

Chapter 10

Summers POV
I was lying in my bed trying to ignore the pain worming around throughout my entire body as Blake's parents and my biological father argued about who would have custody of me.
"You cannot just take her from us!" Mrs. Mitchell screeched clutching onto her purse as if that was the only thing composing her sanity

"I will do as I please she is my daughter and she was hurt under your supervision" Keith bit back.

"Keep in kind that when she was hurt it was you she was supposed to be with Keith! It was you she was running from!" Dave exclaimed poking Keith's scrawny chest and scrunching up his nose.

"I am not terminating my parental rights I want her back in my house as soon as she is released and that's final" he stated walking away.

************************************************

My eyes remained locked on my trembling hands. I still couldnt believe i was going to have to live with keith. My body trembled as his venomous words echoed in my mind. I clenched my jaw in utter frustration thinking of a way to change Keith's mind. I dont want to live with him. He can't want me now.. why now? I tried so hard to fight back and army of tears, but it was impossible. Seconds later I had fallen into a fit of hysterical sobs holding my head in my hands.

"Summer" Blake whispered approaching my bed and ing beside me. He slowlt pulled my hands away from my face and engulfed me in a warm and gentle hug.

"He's taking me" I strained burying my head in the crook of blakes neck.

"Who. Summer,what are you taking about ?" Blake questioned pulling away and holding me at arms length.

"My dad. He refused to terminate his rights, he wants me back when im released from the hospital" I elaborated running a hand through my tangled hair and heaving a dramatic sigh. Blake stared at me for what seemed like an eternity before speaking.

"Summer.. dont worry, he can't just take you. I mean the judge has to decide who you are going to live with." He reassured me grabbing my hands in his.

"Yeah, but in in the hospital, he's my biological dad, and he wont terminate his rights, so how on earth would the judge not side with him?" I questioned hopelessly. Pitty flashed in Blakes eyes when I met his gaze.

This is why I don't open up to people. Because that look. It makes me feel so damn helpless and irrelevant. It's the look that never ceases to make me doubt myself.

"Please don't look at me like that' I pleaded pinching the bridge of my nose and breaking eye contact.

"Like what" he asked supressing a smile. I rolled my eyes at him

"Like I'm a puppy dog that's been kicked about a thousand times and one more kick will break me" I elaborated shrugging my shoulders when I saw the confused look on his face.

"I'm gonna miss you attempting to see me naked in the shower and failing" I chuckled nudging him in the stomatch. Blake laughed shaking his head at me.

"Im gonna miss pranking you kid" He sighed grabbing hold of my shoulder.

"Dude. We are the same age" I scoffed rolling my eyes at the name he just gave me.

"Don't worry. It's not goodbye. It's see you later" Blake saod ruffling my hair. I chuckled at his word choice.

"Spoken like a true idiot" I teased biting my lip to supress a smile.
