Keep The Secret

Chapter 7- Old me.

Rebecca P.O.V-

''Honey..'' Mother Elizabeth rubbed my back. ''Smile, do something. Live''. ''I can't'' I mumbled, starring at the cuts on my wrists. ''Sweetie, its been an month. You need to see your friends, forget the past and have fun'' she whispered, her fingers running down my wavy locks. 

But I don't have friends. Destiny hates me for 'sleeping' with her boyfriend, when I never actually did.

Kira has been told to stay away from me.

And now Ryan wouldn't speak to me, because of Destiny.

And they we're my only friends..

I scanned the brightly coloured lounge, and sighed. ''Why is life so awful?'' I asked. Mother Elizabeth sighed. ''Because we can't always be happy honey... We need it to be good and bad. Balanced'' she repiled and got up. 

Balanced...

Slience filled the room until Mother Elizabeth spoke up again. ''I got you an job, darling''  she said, wrapping her fingers around her coffee mug. ''Job?'' I questioned her, looking confused. She nodded with an grin. ''Where at?'' I asked. ''Starbucks, Jonathan needs workers, and people to take care of the place while his on his Honeymoon with his wife Jennifer. So I told him how much you love making cake, and hot drinks and stuff so he let you in'' she said. Jonathan! That's where Mason works! Or maybe he quit and continued life as an football star..

''Well, what do you say?''. I nodded slightly, I knew she was just trying to help. And plus maybe I should get used to it all, it's not like my life can get better.

''Sure'' I smiled. ''Great! I'll call him right away!''.

''Mhhmm... Smell that Becca?'' asked Mother Elizabeth, she had her hand wrapped around my wrist tightly, like she was helping me walk or something. I looked around, and breathed in the smell of cookies and gingerbread as well as coffee.

''Ahh, Rebecca! So nice to see you again!'' Jonathan said, walking up to us as he shook my hand. ''Elizabeth, thank you. I owe you one ''. ''No no, you and Jennifer have fun now'' she chuckled. Jonathan laughed and grinned at me. ''Well why don't I get someone to show you around, I just need to go out for an hour. '' I nodded with an weak smile. 

''I should go too, darling. Have fun, I'll pick you up at five'' Mother Elizabeth said, as she kissed my forehead. ''Bye...'' I muttered.

''Stay right here, I'll get someone'' Jonathan said as he rushed off inside the kitchen. I looked around, and rolled up my sleeves on my jacket. I pulled on a smile when Jonathan came back, this time with Mason...

 ''Mason, Rebecca has joined us! You two work together now, I'll be back in an hour''.

''Sure ..'' Mason said, he glarred at me. I tied my hair back, and walked pasted him, as I placed my hand on the counter. I watched Jonathan run out of the store, yelling out an quick bye. Mason turned  to my direction, his lips went to an small smirk. ''Why are you here?'' He asked. Jerk, you think I wanted to be here? I wanted to say.

''Why do you care?'' I said. ''Maybe I do?'' he chuckled lightly. He walked off, pushing my shoulder back. I felt my cheeks go warm, I was mad. He came back and chucked an apron over my shoudler with an smirk. ''Pull that on, or you may get flour on your clothing princess'' he said.

I pulled it over my neck, and tied the back. ''So I want you to make cookies. Chocolate cookies''.  ''Alright?'' I said. ''And then bake them and deliver them to this address, hand me your phone I'll type it up'' he said, with an grin. I grabbed my phone out of my pocket, and handed it over. He typed it up, his hair was messy with his apron covered in flour, he also had some flour in his hair. I smiled childishly as I hid an laugh.

He handed me back my phone, I put it in my back pocket and looked up at him. ''Where are the ingredients stored?'' . ''That door, left shelf. Good luck princess Becca, you'll need it'' he smirked.

I rolled my eyes, and walked off towards the door. I turned the knob which was already covered with flour. I walked in and grabbed the flour,eggs,milk and sugar. I walked back towards the kitchen, and got started on the cookies. As I was up to cracking the eggs, Mason called me. ''YO WATSON!'' He shouted, I jumped and dropped about three eggs, they all smashed on the floor. ''MASON YOU BLOODY-'' Then I realized I was indoors, in an cafe. With proberly people outside the kitchen. 

Mason walke din and he blurted out laughing and said ''Your screwed.'' ''You fucken idiot! '' I said. ''Oh come on now baby girl, what did Masey do?'' he laughed harder, as he moved closer. ''Its going to get ugly,LUCAS!'' I shouted.

''Thats it!' I yelled as I chucked an egg, aiming right towards his chest. He starred at me and smirked. ''So this is how it's going to be huh?'' He asked as he grabbed an bag of flour, and chucked it over my head. I closed my eyes, and my mouth dropped open once the bag hit the floor. ''MASON!!!'' I shouted, and spilled the milk over his head, as well as smashing an egg. He smirked and tipped the sugar over my head. ''Your sweet as sugar, princess!'' he yelled. I got so mad, I grabbed the flour and tippe dit over him and them he grabbed eggs in both his hands, I did the same. ''Told you it'll get ugly!'' I said, we chucked the egg at the same time... Exactly when Jonathan walked in.

''WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!?'' He shouted, I slipped by stepping on some raw york and milk, Mason caught me, we we're inches apart. He looked back over at Jonathan. ''MASON! REBECCA! EXPLANATION!?''.

Mason helped me up, I stood behind him looking around the place covered with flour, eggs and milk. ''Uncle, sorry... It was my fault-'' Mason began. I looked at him, and I felt guilty. ''No! Mason's lying! I started it! If it's anyones fault it's mine!'' I said, Im toast..  ''Mason? Is this true?'' he asked. ''No! It isn't'' Mason said, he looked at me. Struggling to keep his eyes open from the flour in his eyes.

''Clean it up... We're locking up early tonight, Lock up Mason!'' Jonathan said, trying to stay calm . He slammed the keys onto the table and walked out. Mason looked over at me. ''Mason, Im sorry'' I whispered. ''It's alright, my little half made cookie'' he chuckled. I blushed, and I knew he couldn't tell from the flour covered on my cheeks.

He leaned in, I wanted to say something. But I could only let out an small whisper. ''Mason.. I''..

He put his finger on my lips, and kissed the side of my lip.
