My First Love

Chapter Six.

      Luke forgave me at the end of the day even when I didn't deserve it. Its fucking 3 in the morning and I am in the kitchen drinking water waiting for the arrival of my jackass step brother. He always hung out with the wrong crowd. I don't  really blame Richard for hanging out with  the wrong crowd after everything that has happened i probably would be acting the way he is. He didn't have a father to rely on like I did. I don't even think he ever found out about his father. Richard's mom was my dad's sister so I wonder if he ever met his father or even knew anything about him.

      I got up and put my glass in the sink and starting walking towards the stairs to go to my room when I heard Richard walk through the front door with a another guy. I starting walking towards Richard.

"What the fuck are you doing? Who is this anyways?" I whispered to Richard so I wouldn't wake up my father.

"This is Jake. I met him today and he is really nice. We smoked and got drunk then Jake decided to make sure I got home okay. He is sleeping over by the way" Richard was walking up the stairs and left me alone with Jake.

"Hey beautiful. How did it go with that guy? He took you back or am I still up for the prize?" I turned around and walked to my room and heard him follow behind.

"That room is Richard's" I pointed to the room right across mine.

"I though I would sleep with you but I guess your all happy with your fuck budddy" Jake started to laugh until I interrupted him.

"Look here Jake. I don't know why you came back but you better watch it. He is not my fuck buddy he is actually my boyfriend. He has been there for me since the day you left so you have no right to hate him. He picked up what you left undone and I am the happiest I have been. Good fucking night" I was about to close the door of my room until I heard him speak.

"I know what happened to your mom Soph" I started to cry remembering the events of that night and felt Jake's arms wrap around me. I turned around and pushed him away.

"Don't try to be here for me now. I don't need your pity Jake. I have been just fine without you because Luke has been there for me while you were gone" Jake pushed my sleeves up my arm and revealed scars on my wrist leading up my arm.

"I regret leaving. I was nothing but a young boy so what could I have done? Nothing. Please don't blame me for something that I shouldn't be blamed for Sophie. I know you hate me for leaving and not being there for you when you needed me the most but I'm here now. That's all that matters" Jake's eyes were locked on my scars. I felt one of his tears hit my skin and I pulled him in for a hug.

      I woke up in the morning for school and found Jake laying on the other side of my bed. After last night I forgave him and told him every single thing I didn't tell anyone. We talked all night and I told him if he tried making a move on me while I was asleep I would beat him up. He just laughed at me and promised he wouldn't. Jake had one of his hands holding mine. I rubbed my thumb over his hand and I looked down at our hands thinking this is the way it should have been. When I looked up his eyes were set on me.
