Hurt. (A Rhett and Link Fanfic)

Chapter 8

Rhett's POV

I smiled at her and she she smiled back.

"You know Link's gunna be pissed if he finds out." She said. I smiled and said "Who says he's gunna find out?"

She leanded her head down on my chest and I stroked her hair.

"It was my mom, not my step." She said out of the blue. I looked down at her with a surprised look and she smiled sadly up at me. Then I heard foot steps. We quickly pulled away just as the door opened.

Katherine's POV

"Hey, I need to talk to you Katherine." Link said. He looked at Rhett and then said "Alone." Rhett nodded and left the room. We both sat down on the couch and I thought about the kiss me and Rhett had shared here.

"Katherine, I think we should talk this out..like maybe we can get back together." He said.

"Link." I sighed "I don't know if I can forgive you yet." I said.

"Katherine just hear me out, It was a mistake!!" He exclaimed. I shook my head and looked down. He walked close to me and lifted my chin up with two fingers. He slowly kissed me and I felt what I had felt with Rhett, but what link did was unforgivable. He pulled away and I felt a tear slip out of my eye. He wiped it with his finger. I smiled up at him.

"Katherine, I want you to know that what happened with Ally was a mistake. I never meant to do it. She some how convinced me to, please forgive me and maybe take me back." He said.

"Link, its not that easy. I can't just forgive you like that! You really hurt me, and I know I dont show it but I'm really sad. I'm just bottling it in, and its not good for me...I- I'm sorry." I said. I turned around and walked out the door. I walked out to go find Rhett and found him in his office on his laptop. He looked up at me.

"So what happened?" He asked as he came up and stud over me.

"Well, Link thought that we should get back together and I didn't think I could forgive him yet. So he came up and kissed me. He said that it was a mistake and that he wanted me back, but what he did was unforgivable." I replied. He hugged me and said "This must be really hard for you." He started stroking my hair. I smiled into his chest. My shoot up when Link came bursting in.

"Rhett out, NOW!" Link boomed.

"No. She isn't yours anymore. You can't do things the way your doing!" Rhett yelled back. I hugged Rhett closer, wishing this away. "I mean look what you've done to her! She's petrified! She clinging on to me!!!" Rhett yelled again. I looked at Link then at Rhett then at Link, waiting for the next move to happen.

"Well can't I have a word with her!?!" Link asked.

"No, because I know you Link! You going to matters worse than they already were!" Rhett fought back. Link pulled me off of him and whispered something loud enough for only me to hear.

"Stay away from Rhett or else." He whispered. Rhett gently pulled me back and yelled....again.

"Link! God! Just go home." He yelled, but all I could think of was his words. Or else. What did that mean. Link left for what I'm assuming home. I looked up at Rhett.

"What did he whisper?" He asked, I could hear the anger in his voice.

"H-he said that if I don't stay away from you something's going happen." I replied. "Why is all this drama happening all of a sudden?" I asked.

"I don't know." He replied. He hugged me close.

"I'm sorry you have to get mixed up in this mess." I said to Rhett.

"Well I'd do it for you." He said. I looked up at him.

"Why?" I asked. "Well...I....I- I love you." He said nervously. I smiled up at him.

"I love you too." I said quietly. He moved a piece of hair out of my face and tucked it behind my ear. He leaned down and kissed me softly. His lips were so soft and his beard tickled me. I felt fireworks just like the first kiss. We pulled away and Rhett said the words that would change my life forever.

"Will you be my Girlfriend?"
