Hidden

fifteen

The next morning, I dropped Anne and Luna back off at home. They kept thanking me for letting them stay at my house and honestly I couldn't let them stay with Parker acting like that, but after finding out about everything, I have sympathy for him.

He was abused as a kid. He was just an innocent child who wanted to be happy.

Just thinking about it got me pissed. His father hurt him, he suffered because of him. I could never be in the same room as that man.

Anne invited me inside and I quickly made my way to check if Parker was in his room. And of course, he was. He was on his bed shirtless and listening to music.

When he noticed I was in the room, he turned around and took off his headphones.

"Hi," he said slowly.

"I know everything," I said. I couldn't wait any longer. Parker looked confused and played his music loud again.

"Parker, Parker! Can you listen to me for once!" I pulled his headphones out of his phone and he rolled his eyes at me.

"Parker I know about your dad! I know what he did to you when you were younger and I'm sorry bu-," Parker interrupted me.

"It's none of your business what my father did to me in the past. It's not your life, it's mine and you can leave if you want to, I don't need you here." He spat.

He aggressively put on his headphones and blasted the music. I rolled my eyes and stormed out of the room.

"I don't know how to do this anymore!" I said while stuffing popcorn in my mouth. After Parker's meltdown, I went to Ashley's house.

"Ugh, why is he so hot!?" Ashley yelled at the TV, ignoring me. I giggled and threw popcorn at her.

As I started to relax, the moment soon got ruined when the one and only Myles walked through the door. When he saw me, his eyes lit up and a smirk came across his face.

"Hi beautiful girls," he winked at me, "I can see Ashley is still being lazy and still watching Grey's Anatomy." She flipped him off and continued to stuff popcorn in her mouth.

He sat down very close to me. I quickly got up and walked into the kitchen, and of course, Myles followed me. 

"Alex, what's wrong?" He asked. I ignored him and looked for a cup. I found the cups and reached on my tip toes to grab it but I couldn't reach it.

Myles wrapped his arms around my waist from behind me and grabbed the cup for me. Once he handed me the cup, I whispered "thank you" and moved quickly to the fridge.

I quickly poured some water and made my way towards the living room, but Myles blocked me.

I froze. He moved a piece of my hair away from my face and said, "you are the most beautiful girl I have ever met." He leaned into kiss me and I turned my cheek and his lips landed on my cheek.

He sighed and moved away from me.

He leaned against the counter and messed with his hair. I stayed frozen.

"Alex, I don't understand." He paused for another sigh.

"You'd rather be with a guy who treats you like crap when I'm right here. I want to take care of you, to show you how a guy should really treat you. I'm here with open arms, waiting for you to run into them. I want to be the one to make you smile and laugh not to cry and hurt you." I kept my head down.

I slowly walked over to him. I gave him a hug and kissed his cheek and walked away.

I couldn't stay at there. I had to go.

I gave Ashley a hug and headed towards the door. I looked behind me and saw Myles looking down with his arms crossed.

I agree with him one hundred percent. But something about Parker is like a drug, he's my weakness. And I don't know why.
