Killing my bestfriend's dad

chapter 55

To say I was confused was the least of my worries.

"Simonè open this damn door." He yelled and I obliged without any question.

As soon as I did he was on his knees cupping my face between his hands.

"Fuck baby you're okay. You're fine. Nothing happened to you right?" He bombarded me with questions and I was confused to the core bit.

"Damien I'm fine. Everything's fine."

"I was so worried. I thought you were mad at me and weren't picking up my calls so I went to your friend's apartment and he said you'd left hours ago and he tried to call you but you weren't answering his calls either. So then we both started to panic and he told me that you might be in danger so we drove to your apartment but you weren't there and we decided to drive around for a while looking for you and when we saw your car my heart skipped a beat."

I scanned his face again to make sure he wasn't joking. He was worried about me?

I turned and saw his car there with Adrian against it.

"You don't have to worry I'm fine." I told him once again and he let out an uneasy breath.

"I'm glad you are." He looked around me for a second and saw the blanket.

"Wait. Don't tell me you're sleeping in your car?"

Fuck. He had caught me in my fucking mess of a world.

"I'm not. I mean it was just a one day thing you know trying new things out?" I said in a light way so he could believe me but he wasn't buying it.

"Wait you've decided to start living in your car?" Adrian said now stepping towards us. "Simone when I said avoid your apartment I didn't mean live in a fucking car! You could have told me I'd let you stay at my place."

"I thought you said this is a one time thing? Simone why didn't you call me if there was something wrong with your place I'd have given you anything you asked for." Damien spoke calmly.

I loved how easily he was treating the situation.

"I uh I thought you were mad at me and Adrian I didn't want to evade your privacy."

"I'm mad at you now for not telling me about this. How do you expect this to work if you can't talk to me about anything!"

I noticed Adrian look away trying to avoid the awkward conversation he was now involved in.

"Fuck you're right okay you're right. These last few months have fucked me up real bad and I don't know how to trust people anymore Damien. I don't know how to let my walls down. " I honestly told him and he took in a deep breath.

"Let's get your things and put them in my car." He said while now getting up to open the back door.

"What are you-"

"Simonè it's 2 in the morning just get your things and put them in my damn car."

I did everything he told me to and when we were done he gave my keys to Adrian and told him he'd get my car the next day. I was literally watching everything happen in third person asif none of it concerned me.

We drove to his apartment in complete silence and when we got there we took my things into his place.

After putting the last box down he crashed on his bed and pulled me down with him.

He kissed my cheek pulling me close to my chest and pulling the covers over both our bodies.

He drifted into a drowning sleep with my hands gently playing with his hair.

"I love you." I whispered it gently to him.

I fell asleep right after that not knowing it was the last good sleep I'd have in a while.

Well the storm's coming.
