Passion

The Night Before

Kate's POV

I couldn't take it anymore living with Scarlett, couldn't take it anymore so I started walking into a bar and getting a few drinks, hoping to enjoy myself for a few hours but of course, something or someone has to ruin it. I sighed when I spotted Scarlett's best friend showed up, finding me and sat down next to me. I groaned in annoyance, I rolled my eyes, "I just need some space and I don't need you to tell me what to do."

Racheal scoffed, "Clearly you need someone to do that, you're lucky I'm here to talk to you and get some sense knocked into you."

I can't believe she's here and I know she's going to tell me what to do like Scarlett. As always.

Kate sighed, she looked over at her sister's friend, "You're not going to tell me what to do like my sister did, are you? Because I'm not to listen."

Racheal sighed and rolled her eyes, "I was 19 once, I know what it's like to be confused and not have anything figured out, it's tough. Overwhelming even. So no I'm not going to drag you out of here but I am to speak with you as a friend. Just a friend and you can truth me, alright."

Kate raised an eyebrow, "Why do you care?"

"Because your sister is my best friend and I do anything for her, since she doesn't want to mother you in fear you would just rebel, I'm here as a friend." Kate looked at Racheal for a few seconds, she sighed, "She's always so controlling, she doesn't trust me to make my own decisions."

Racheal nodded, unfazed and smiled, "Considering she's a cop and best one at that, she just wants to protect you, even if she could let you do what you want and let you handle the consequences, and she does trust you. Look your living with her, you went to her after fighting with your mom and stuff. She's cool with you living with her."

Kate sighed, "I guess, but she always makes me feel like I'm some little kid, I'm 19, I'm not a child anymore."

Racheal scoffed, "As if I don't know how that felt, when I was your age, I was just 18 and eloped with my ex husband, doing whatever I want, ignoring my parents and doing my own thing."

Kate raised her eyebrows, "Wait, you're married? And divorced, damn what happened there?" Curious as Kate wanted to know more about Racheal, Racheal rolled her eyes and grin, "Considering we were just 18 and rebellious, we were just dumb kids and doing stupid shit. But we did stay for 6 months with so many problems, such as with the ducebag cheating on me many times but being young, I ignored it, better to stay in the marriage then ending it to go back to my parents."

"Oh wow. What happened next? Did you try and make it work at least?"

"At a chance. We were always arguing and fighting, he kept cheating on me, partying hard and being drunk as always, which I shouldn't judge because I did the same with the partying and drinking. I even cheated on him with his own brother to pissing me off again and cheat with another chick. That was one time and never did again. We eventually ended things after 6 months, but I won't lie, we keep getting distracted with each other with our bodies."

"What a weird relationship you two got. So you two keep going back to each other to sleep, is it good?"

Racheal raised her eyebrow, "Well not everytime, each time it's okay but I would sometimes regret it. I know he's trying to get back together but I don't, it's never worth it. Now you, I get your 19 and still figuring things out, with moving out of your mom's house to Scarlett, and fighting only for you up and leave her place, it's fine to be rebellious but know this, your sister loves you and wants you to be okay. I don't know what happened but only that you two fought and Scarlett wanted me to go and find you."
