The Story Of Us

Chapter 4: Like Father Like Daughter

*The Machines were beeping constantly, Tiff was alive thankfully but she was in alot of pain and needed bed rest*

"Where the fuck did you come from" *Dawson said to Laurie*

"I heard screaming down the corridor so I came to help" *Laurie said*

*Charlie was still upset and said nothing he only sat by Tiffany's side the entire time*

"So you're telling me your siblings weren't out of the room?" *Dawson said*

"No they weren't, Dawson why Don't you believe me?" *Laurie said*

"Cause you appeared out of nowhere" *Dawson said*

"Why would I want to hurt you or Tiff or Charlie?" *Laurie said*

"I don't know" *Dawson said*

"Exactly there's no reason" *Laurie said*

*Dawson felt like something was off about Laurie I mean they'd been friends for a few years but still this one time he for some reason felt like he couldn't trust her*

*Laurie's POV*

*I have a million thoughts rushing through my head rn, Dawson thinks I'm ghostface why would I be ghostface I get it I showed up out of no where and my dad was a ghostface once but I would never hurt him or his family...although I never told him about my secret and If I tell him he really will freak out*

"Can we talk outside a sec?" *I asked*

*Dawson looked at me very uneasy*

"Sure ig" *he said with sadness in his voice*

"Look there's something I never told you and ik that you hearing this rn will make you run far far away from me" *I said*

*Dawson just looked at me*

"I'm sure that's not True Lau" *Dawson said*

*Fuck I was finally gonna tell my crush something, not that I like him but something much deeper fuck I wanna just go and slam my head into a wall*

"I um...I- " *I kept stumbling over my words I felt sick*.

"You ok?" *Dawson said*

"I- I've killed someone" *I said as bluntly as possible, shit he's gonna run*

*Dawson just stood there, there was no fear more like shock pure shock*

"When?" *he said*

"About a year ago I had a stalker he was obsessed with me and my dad anyway one night I said enough was enough so whilst My parents were out I invited the guy over and when he came in he kept telling me he loved me and some weird shit about my dad. He said he knew my dad and was a fan and that he'd take his kids away, so I grabbed a rolling pin and smacked him over the head with it 3 times and the worst part was Danny came downstairs to get a drink...he saw me and we made eye contact he had that look of pure fear in his eyes...and Regan was just as shocked, I dumped his body in a barrel and rolled it off the canal" *I said*

*Dawson just looked at me*

"Jesus" *he said*

"Did you ever tell your dad?" *He asked me*

"I did...he was shocked but told me not to tell a soul" *I said*

"Well you told me" *Dawson said*

"That's cause you're the only person I trust" *I said

"Why tho I mean I'm the Brother of a Murderer like, If you think about it minds think alike" *Dawson said*

"You didn't seem very scared when I told you?" *I questioned*

"Well I mean why would I be scared of that..tbh after Charlie got locked up for a while I became super violent...kids would pick on me simply because I was Charlie's Brother and well they paid the price, not murder but yk me beating the shit out of them. I had to go to therapy cause my parents and Tiff saw a decline in my behaviour I became more angry...when I was 10 I was referred to an anger management class and put on meds the classes stopped when I was 14 but the meds never stopped, I still have to take them and if I dare miss a dose I'll snap just like how Charlie will snap and Tiff will snap if they don't take theres" *Dawson told me*

*it was alot to take in I never pictured him as the violent type, ig I was too after people would say shit about my dad it would get me worked up, I love my dad alot and I'd do anything to protect him and ik Dawson would do the same for Tiff and Charlie*

"Well I'm glad we got some shit out about us" *Dawson said*

"Yeah ig...it didn't uh ruin anything between us right?" *I said*

"No not at all" *He says to me with a smile*

"Cool" *I said*

*End of Pov*

*Dawson and Laurie walked back in Tiff was still laying still and Charlie had been crying so much he'd fallen asleep next to her*

*Laurie and Dawson just walked in quietly and spoke for a while before Laurie went back to her dad's room*

*Dawson just laid on his bed he didn't know what to think he then heard a buzz it was Charlie's phone he turned it on to see a message from Kirby*

*Kirby <3*

"Hey Charlie listen umm there's been a huge problem in new York a bunch of people just got killed and idk what to do, could you come by at some point?" *she wrote*

*Dawson just froze when he heard his phone buzz it was a message*

"Heyyyy Daws long time no see, I'm sorry to hear about your brother and sister, new York is Crazy but I hope I can see you soon we have lots to catch up on" *Dawson smiled and replied back*
