The jerk's bestfriend

Avoiding

After me and my dad hugged, I pushed him away and ran to my room.

Him hugging me felt  good, like he was actually being my dad and not some stranger he is pretending to be.

It felt so good having a dad.

I wish he didn't left, then maybe, just maybe we would be a family and I would even have siblings and not just depend on James all the time.
I spent all weekend avoiding James, so I was back to lonely betty since my mom wasn't around.

Tomorrow I would be back to school.. Alone

I sigh and suddenly heard my door crack open.

"Betty?" My mom voice boomed through my room and I quickly fake sleep . "Betty, Ben told me what happened between you and James." She said then I felt my bed sink as she sits beside me. "What happened?" She ask but I just kept quiet and fake my sleeping, like she's faking being a friend to my dad, but then again maybe they are really friends. "Bet, I know i am not the best mom in the world, god I'm the worst, b..but it would be nice if you tell me what's going on between you and James, you guys are best friend and I wouldn't want your friendship to end." She said then brush her fingers through my hair but I just turn around making muffle sound to look like i am sleeping. "Do you know..t..that's how I met your dad." She said and I was starting to get really interested in the topic but I don't want to blow my cover.

She suddenly laugh, a genuine laugh and I slightly open my eyes. She was smiling at herself, like she was remembering good moments, good memories.

"I remember when would push our self into the nearest pond and walk home wet, and how he always had that annoyed face that made me laugh, and me pushing girls that was crushing him." She chuckle and sigh, then stood up and said. "Goodnight Betty."   Before heading out of the room.

I open my eyes and sat up for a while, pitying my mom, its so obvious that she still likes Ben.

I bend down to bell and patted her head.

My mom and dad had a friendship that broke down, and I don't want that for me and James.

It wouldn't kill a fly to accept his apology, but of course I wasn't going to forgive him until he apologize again.

It wasn't because he kissed me that made me angry, we kissed before and I was just annoyed, it was the fact that he was using me, he was using me for Bea.

I know Bea was so much prettier than me, but I was his best friend, I was hoping he would care more for me since we've known each other for seven years and have been best friend through those years.

To be honest I wouldn't have mind being James practice tool for kissing, it was just that he was doing that for another girl and I didn't want to be any more attracted to him than I already was.
Yes, I am attracted to James, so it would hurt me kissing him for another girl. If I wasn't attracted to him, I would have agreed since he did many things for me, he helped me and cared for me even more than my own dad.

But kissing him, knowing I like him and knowing its for another girl would surly ruin our relationship, but I hope what I did didn't ruin our relationship too.

I sigh and stood up walking downstairs to get some water to drink but stop in my track as I heard my mom voice sounding stressed.

Who was she talking to?

I sneak and follow where the sound is coming from, I stop and hide behind the wall as I saw her leaning on the door looking frustrated.

"Fashion show was a disaster, Gigi fell off and..ugh, now Betty is not talking to me, and i am sure she wouldn't talk to you and she can't talk to James. I just don't want her keeping her feelings to herself." My mom sigh leaning her head on the open door.

"I am sorry." I heard a voice from outside the door and I knew who's voice was that. "Your a good mother, you know." Ben said and my mom chuckled.

"Never thought I would be hearing you say those words." I heard Ben chuckled too.

"Your not like before, the chatty Kelly I know, that says whatever comes to her mind, that when she opens her mouth everything dies." He chuckle and my mom playfully slap his hand.

Oh my mom never change in killing everything with her mouth.

A hand stretch out to touch my mom cheek and she leaned in closing her eyes.

"I missed you Ben." She whisper. "I tried acting tough, kept telling myself I could do it." She said, tears falling from her eyes. "But I can't. I still love you even after all this years." She cried and Ben face appeared moving closer to hers.

No he wasn't going to do it, he shouldn't do it.

They're face were getting closer and I know I should look away, but I can't.

There lips met, and i look away with wide eyes then look back.

My mom hand went to his chest then around his neck until it was tangled for in his hair, tugging and pulling softly. While Ben arm around her waist pulling her closer than ever.

I look away again and crunch my face.
"Gross" I mutter and look back cause for some reason, I just felt like Should... look

Things were smooth at first but then my mom wrapped her legs around his waist and Ben walked in shutting the door, pinning her against the wall.

OK now I shouldn't be looking at this. I was about to turn away when a phone ringed from one of them but they didn't mind it.

After a while it ringed again.

"You should probably get that." My mom said pulling her hand away but Ben grabbed it and put it back to his hair, shaking his head.

They were getting too passionate and I really should get away.

They were putting their hands into one and other's shirt and a 12  year old shouldn't be looking at this.

I was about to turn away again but then Ben phone rang again and I needed to know who was calling him.

"You should get that Ben." My mom moaned pulling her lips away from his.

One of Ben hand supported my mom up while the other one reached for his pocket.

He pulled out his phone then unlocked it.

"Hello." Ben say and unexpectedly my mom jump off his waist.

"O my god Ben." My mom gasp.

"I'll call you later." Ben say to the phone and put in his pocket reaching out for my mom arm

"What the fuck Ben." My mom pushed him. "You are married."
