Meeting The Family

Chapter 8

"Great I come home to this,my ugly cousin and the girl who I deserve making out!" He says. "Great just fucking great,that means a lot Leslie!" I blink back tears as he says that ok yeah I get that your mad and I don't know why but to take it out on me. "I don't think you get it Leslie I like you a lot and I know I just met you but your everything I want. I thought you liked me to but Jackson is always in my god damn way!" He screams walking out of the living room.
    "Woah." Mariah says showing no emotion.
    "That was..." Delilah says not finishing her sentence.
     I get up and walk towards the door.
     "Where are you going beautiful?" Jackson asks worry in his eyes.
      "Outside." I reply.
       "Do you want me to come?"
       "No Jackson,I just need sometime alone,I love you ok?" I answer.
      "I love you to Leslie!" He says with his head down. He lays back down on the couch.
      I walk to the guest room where Landon should be. He isn't there. I look in his sisters room. He isn't there I continue to search all around the house when I just give up. I walk onto the front porch when I hear someone clear their throat.
    "Princess decided to join me I see." Landon says.
    "Landon I should've listened to Delilah,you're a dick and that's all there is to it. I know that you got mad in there but you didn't have to take it out on me. I thought you were sweet I was going to hold off on Jackson to give you a chance but you ruined it. You can never just leave someone alone! You and Jackson were fighting over me for gods sake and basically forced me to pick one! I've always liked Jackson because he has never been that rude to me! I might've given you a chance if you didn't have mad issues!" I scream at him. He looks astounded. His eyes had tears in them. He tried to blink back the tears but they remained. Causing me to feel guilty.
     "I'm not going to cry,but is that really how you feel about me. Do I really have mad issues? I was just falling head over heels for you and you didn't see it! You only thought about Jackson and how much he would hate you if you stood up for yourself and picked me! You didn't have the guts to do that,did you? That's why you're with Jackson!" Landon yells back.
   "Landon I'm not going to fight with you when you get your act together then come talk to me. I can't deal with this right now. Your just causing it to be worse. Bye." I say walking inside.
       Now I'm the one with tears in my eyes. If I didn't think that Jackson would hate me would I have gotten with Landon? It seems like a possibility. Landon had always made me blush and smile until he seen me and Jackson kissing. He was always nice to me and I just broke his heart. Good job Leslie.
