Working for Him (His Maid) Chapter 6: Burn

The water ran cold. I uncurled my limbs as I reached out to shut off the water. I pulled myself off the tile floor and pulled the curtain. I grabbed the towel hanging near the sink and dried myself off. I went to my room and pulled on a pair of leggings and a jumper. I made sure the sleeves were long and hid my wrists. The jumper was large with green and white stripes. I was pretty sure I had borrowed if from Belle once and never returned it. I sighed as my phone rang. I reached for it and saw Adam's name. Debating for a few moments I finally hit answer.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Kat? You okay?" No.

"Yeah."

"I want to talk to you. Meet me at the coffee shop?"

"Sure see you in twenty," I mumbled as I hung up. I was too lazy to make my self presentable so I threw a hat over my hair and pulled on my UGGS. Luckily no one was downstairs and I easily snuck out of the house. I shoved my hands into the front pocket on my jumper and began the walk to the coffee shop. I heard the little bell jingle as I walked in. It was nearly empty. I spotted Adam's red baseball cap and found him seated in a booth near the back.

"Hey," I said softly as I sat across from him. He had a mug of tea in his hands but didn't seem to be drinking it. He just looked up at me. "What did you want to talk about?" I ask.

"Kat. I'm sorry but I can't be your friend anymore."

"What?" I asked stunned.

"I'm really sorry Kat but..." he trailed off.

"What?" I asked.

"I just can't," he mumbled looking down again.

"Look at me. Why can't you be my friend?" I ask.

"Kat its pretty obvious that I love you."

"Yeah of course, you're my best friend."

"That's not what I mean Kat. I'm in love with you.

"What?"

"Oh don't pretend you didn't notice," he snapped.

"I d-didn't," I said truthfully. Sure I had wondered if Adam had feelings for me at first but I had thought I was just imagining things.

"You never realized?" he asked surprised. I shook my head.

"Adam I'm so sorry."

"Kat don't."

"But-"

"Just stop. I know you're in love with Harry."

"How'd you...?" I trailed off.

"Oh Jesus Kat it's so obvious! Everyone knows!"

"How long?"

"What?" he asked.

"How long have you felt this way?"

"Kat its been almost a year. I've always wanted to tell you but as soon as I saw you with Harry I knew you cared for him as much more than a friend."

"Adam I'm so sorry. I know what its like to love someone who doesn't love you back," I said softly.

"Look Kat really don't need your sympathy," Adam sighed.

"Adam I care about, I really do-"

"I know Kat. I guess this is goodbye."

"NO! Adam please! I need you! You're the only friend I've got who knows... I-"

"Kat give it up. I just can't be around you anymore. Watching you hurt over Harry and his girlfriend. I just can't." Adam stood up and began to walk away.

"Please Adam," Tears pricked my eyes. He shook his head and continued walking. "Adam," I said softly. He turned to look at me. "you said we'd always be friends."

"I lied." And he was gone. So now I lost Adam too. I was losing my mother, I had lost my father, I had lost my sister, I had lost Adam, I had lost Harry, who had never even been mine, and I was losing myself. Who am I?

I'm Katniss Taylor. I'm seventeen and a senior at Lakewood High school. I'm 5'3. I have dark hair and blue green eyes. I'm in love with my best friend. My other best friend is in love with me. My mother is dying of cancer. My girl friends have no idea what's going on. I'm loosing myself.

I'm loosing my mind.

Maybe I really am starting to go mad. That would certainly explain why I did what I did next. I left the coffee shop and began walking to place I hadn't seen in a month. Saint Bernard's Hospital. Also known as the hospital where y previously abusive mother was staying. I entered the hospital and signed in.

"Kat!" a voice called. I turned around and saw Nurse Karen a woman in her early thirties who helped look after my mum. I had gotten to know Karen pretty well after all my visits. She was a single mother struggling with two young children. And I thought I had it bad. At least I didn't have two other people depending on me.

"Hi Karen," I faked a smile.

"Hi sweetie, it's been awhile."

"Yeah I've been busy with school," I told her.

"That's alright honey I'll take you to your mum." So we walked to my mother's hospital room.

"Hey Kathy you've got a visitor," Karen said hiding me behind the door.

"Who? Nobody visits me." Her voice was still cold and hard. I stepped out from behind the door.

"Hi Mum," I said softly looking up at her through my fringe.

"Katniss?" she seemed shocked.

"Hey Mum, its been awhile."

"It sure had been! Where have you been?"

"Well Harry came home-"

"That mop-headed curly kid? Katniss give up on him!"

"Mum-"

"I leave you two alone," Karen quietly closed the door as she left. I sat down in the hard, plastic chair beside the bed.

"Mum I have a problem."

"So do I: I have cancer," she remarked dryly.

"Mum,' I said getting annoyed. Why was I even here? I should have known better than to go to my mother for advice!

"Alright sorry tell me what was so important that you made you actually decide to visit me."

"I'm in love with Harry but my other friend Adam is in love with me," I explained in a big rush.

"I always knew you were a whore."

"Gee thanks," I mumbled. "What should I do?"

"Well does curly boy fancy you back?"

"Nope he's got a girlfriend."

"Then talk to this other friend. Maybe you'll l grow to love them more than you love Harry," my mum shrugged, I thought that over.  And it wasn't a bad idea. It wasn't a bad idea at all.
