THE HEMMINGS TWINS

CHAPTER 25

LILIA P.O.V 

Taking Dax trick or treating was not as fun as we thought it was going to be. We were out for about twenty minutes before he freaked out and we went back to the apartment. 

"What should we do?" Luke asked as we ate some pizza as Dax slept. 

"If you guys want to go to Ashton's party I'll stay here with the baby." 

"Really?" Michael questioned.

"Yeah." I said and he jumped up before kissing me. 

"Thanks, Babe." He said as they all grabbed their phones and headed out the door. I turned on the Xbox and played where I left off earlier, putting the headset on to talk to other people who were playing. 

"Lilia, what are you doing?" Cole asked from the other side of the headset. 

"I'm just chilling. Waiting for Dax to wake up. The guys left." I said.Everyone else just sat listening to our conversation. 

"We should hang out." 

"I don't think that's a good idea." I answered right away. I knew that I would not want Michael hanging out with his ex-girlfriend so I would never do that to him. Never in a million years. I then noticed that everyone else who was apart of the conversation left. Why would they leave me alone!

"I don't want anything to be awkward between us, Lil." He said. 

"Neither do I but I'm with Michael and I know that he would be pissed if he found out that we were hanging out and I didn't tell him." 

"But why can't we be friends? Doesn't he have friends that are girls?" 

"Yeah but..." I trailed off, as far as I knew he's never slept with any of them. "He hasn't slept with any of them." I said. 

"What does having sex have to do with us being friends?" He questioned and I sighed. I didn't know. I had no idea about anything but all I knew was that I didn't want Cole coming into my life to screw up my relationship with Michael. I wasn't going to allow that to happen. 

*MICHAEL P.O.V*

I knew that Lilia was probably going to be upset that I decided to come to the party even though I told her that I wasn't going to go but sitting at home doing nothing was so boring. 

"So, Lilia and Cole have been talking a lot lately." Luke said. 

"Yeah, they're friends?" I questioned. Lilia was allowed to have friends and I knew that Cole was also friends with her family, I had no problem with it. I trust both of them. "I trust them." I said. 

"You know they slept together a few weeks ago right?" 

"What?" I questioned. I didn't know that. 

"Yeah like right after you broke up. They saw each other at the club and she left with him." 

"Why didn't anyone tell me that?" They all shrugged. Lilia's sex life outside of our sex life was none of our business but it still grossed me out a little. 

"Did you tell her that you slept with someone else?" 

"No." 

"Then why did she have to tell you?" He asked. Well now I was kinda angry. 

"I'm going home." I growled as I put my cup down and made my way out of the party. I knew that Lilia was either sleeping or watching t.v and I was going to confront her about Cole no matter what she was doing. 

I walked in the front door to find her feeding Dax. 

"Hey, what are you doing here?" She questioned. 

"Don't." I said to her and she looked at me confused. She went to talk but I knew she wasn't exactly sure what to say. 

"What's going on?" 

"I know you slept with Cole." I said and she still looked at me confused. 

"Okay? And?" She questioned. "We had sex one time." She said as she tried to feed Dax but I knew that she was going to get frustrated and cry soon. 

"Yeah but why didn't tell you me?" 

"I didn't think it was that important. It was a one time thing." She said putting Dax down in the swing. "Why are you so upset about it?" 

"Because you're still friends with him!" I raised my voice. I knew I shouldn't have shouted but I needed to get my point across. 

"Why does that matter? You're friends with girls!" She said raising her voice too. Lilia was the type of person to always fight her way through everything and I knew this was one of those times. 

"But I haven't slept with any of them!" I fought back. 

"What does that have to do with anything? You've slept with a lot of people, Michael! More people than I have!" 

"I'm older than you!" I tried to fight. I knew that wasn't going to work. 

"By a year! Stop acting like my father!" 

"I'm allowed to control who you hang out!" I said to her. I knew that when she laughed that I was dead meat. 

"You think so?" She asked and I gulped. I had no idea what she was going to do to me. "This is a controlling relationship. You're not my father, you're not my mother. I'm allowed to hang out with whoever I want to hang out with. You have no control over that. Keep trying to control me and I will leave you." She said pointing her finger at me. "I'm not afraid this time, Michael Clifford." 

*LILIA P.O.V*

I made Michael sleep on the couch while me and Dax slept in our bed. He was not going to control me that way and if he thought he was he is totally wrong. When I woke up the next morning he was gone. I'm sure he was with the boys doing something. 

"Are you hungry little man?" I said to Dax who was fussing around. I sat down and fed his bottle before someone knocked on the door and I brought him to answer it with me. "Cole, I'm not in the mood." 

"Michael sent me." He said. 

"What?" Why would Michael send him? Michael doesn't like him. "Why?" 

"He wants to know if you're still mad at him." He said as I stepped to the side to let him into the apartment. 

"Of course I am!" I said getting angry again. "He can't control me." He nodded his head as I talked. 

"He knows that." He said. "He told me what happened and he said he was sorry." 

"He didn't say sorry to me." I said as I burped Dax. 

"He's afraid of you." 

"Because I said I was going to leave him if he didn't stop." I said. "He cannot just assume things. We're friends, we aren't doing anything." 

"Listen, he just doesn't want to lose you." He said. "He's so in love with you and that's the last thing he wants." 

"He's not going to lose me! What doesn't he get?" 

"Stop yelling at me. I'm just helping deliver the message." 

"Why didn't he come here himself?" I loved Michael so much and he had to know that. I know that he's been struggling with all of this but for god sake I'm here to help him and I sure as hell am not going to leave him over something like that. I may have said I would but that was to scare him. "Where is he?" I asked. 

"He's outside." Cole answered. 

"I hate both of you." I slipped on a pair of flip flops before opening the door to find Michael standing there in all his glory, his hair a mess. 

"Hi." He whispered. I crushed my lips to his. No matter how many fights me and Michael get into I hope he knows that I will not leave him and I will support him through everything. 

"I love you. Never forget that." 

*Sorry it's so short. I'm running out of ideas.*
