Neglect... (BoyxBoy)

Chapter 9 "Getting closer"

As I was being wheeled to my locker today I noticed Kevin leaning on it through the crowd. I made eye contact with him and blushed. When I got over he shifted to the locker next to mine allowing me to get into mine.

"Hey?" I said as I unlocked my locker.

"Hey cutie!" He was in an obviously cheery mood today.

"Guess what?!" He added.

"Um, the tooth fairy came last night?!" I joked.

"Oh! How did you know." he smiled back.

"No silly! I'm staying at your place tonight. We can hang out watch movies, cuddle, and more depending on how both of us are feeling." he added a playful wink with the last thing. I blushed at this.

"And what would more be?" I asked keeping the teasing going.

"Well, remember that one time you kissed me? Yeah..." he explained more serious but still playful.

"We'll see how I'm feeling." I winked.

"Mattie!!" I turned and saw Bella running straight toward Kevin and I. She was wearing an off white laced dress that really complimented her skin and her hair.

"Hey beautiful!" I responded.

"What's with the wedding dress?" Kevin asked removing his gaze from me.

"I feel pretty! Oh so pretty!" She began to sing.

"Last night really was a mile stone for me. I thought I would celebrate and wear a beautiful dress. People may not understand it, but that's okay. As long as I know..." she explained with a huge smile on her face.

"I'm so happy for you Bell. And hey take it from me. It will only get better." I added. Just then the warning bell rang for us to go to first period. We all scattered and headed to our classes.

When I got home my dad was sitting on the couch as if he was waiting for me. When he saw I was struggling to get into the house because of my wheel chair he jumped up and helped me.

"What time is Kevin going to get here tonight?" He asked.

"Um..." I didn't have an answer.

"Well ask him dumb ass." he added. for some reason my dad seemed a bit annoyed today, and I didn't want to mess with that, so like the obedient puppy I was I fished my phone out of my pocket and texted Kevin.

'What time were you planning on heading over?' A few seconds later he responded.

'Is 5 ok'

'Yep'. And that was that.

"So!" My dad responded aggressively

"He is coming over at five." I answered cautiously.

"Well it's 3:16 I'll help you clean your room and then I'm off okay." He said as he picked me up.

"Where are you going?" I asked warping my arms around his neck.

"Something has come up. I may or may not be home tonight. If I'm not just make sure you guys are responsible." He answered. When he got to my room he set me down on my bed and started to pick up cloths from the ground. He was fast with his actions, as if he was anxious. When he put away my clean cloths he slammed my drawers shut. He seemed pissed and I had no idea why. Did I do something?

"Dad?" I said quietly not wanting to put him over the edge.

"What?!" He yelled back.

"I, I was just curious as to what happened."

"Look your grandparents want to keep all of Linda's stuff and not let anyone else inherit anything, and it is pissing me off." He shot back.

"Oh." is all I could think of as an answer.
