Love in Her Eyes, Hurt in Her Life

Chapter 15

What is he talking about? It's not his choice? What does that mean? "My adopted mom is making me do these things to you. She wants revenge on your parents for what they did to her." Eugene starts to explain. "What did my parents do?" I ask. Eugene and I both just look and each other. We end up turning our chairs so we are facing each other.

"There was a trial. My adopted moms husband was on trial for robbing this huge bank. She thought he would be fine, but that wasn't the case. Your mom was the one who went up against him in saying that he was guilty. Your dad was the one who sentenced him to death. Apparently my adopted moms husband had also murdered a few people just to get in and get the money." Eugene explains "So when my adopted mom found out that we went to the same high school she wanted me to start bullying you for what your parents did. She thought that if I was hurting you, that would hurt them because you're their daughter." I sit there in shock. "She said that if I don't hurt/bully you she would hurt me instead. She would pull out a belt and a knife. She would whip me with a belt and/or cut me with a knife."

I'm in shock. I feel bad for Eugene. I just look down at the floor as a small tear drops down. I lift my head after wiping the tear away. Eugene just clears his throat.

"So, um, what's this about you not being able to see your parents?" Eugene asks pulling back. "Well, my parents are always at work. Constantly working on cases. Getting home late. Leaving for work early. I practically live by myself." I explain with a sad tone "All my friends come to me and tell me what a fun time they had with their parents...than theirs me who's just like, I wouldn't know what's it's like to have fun with my parents." Eugene seems sad about what I just told him. I look down at the ground and explaining this makes me start to get teary eyed. Eugene softly lifts up my head and strokes a piece of hair, that fell in my face, behind my ear. He did the same thing in the cave when we were in the water and trying to figure out how to get out.

"Who would help you with your homework?" He asks with a sad look on his face. "Usually Jack or Hiccup." I say "Jack and I have been friends since we were really little. So we are really close. Hiccup and I have known each other since sixth grade. We are pretty good friends. What about you? Who do you hang out with?" I ask curiously.

"I'm more of a loner. It's hard for me to make friends." Eugene says rubbing the back of his head. I mouth the word 'oh'. We stay looking at each other for a little bit. Something in me clicks. I've never had this feeling before. I can't quite explain it, but I...I like Eugene.

EUGENE's POV

Rapunzel and I just opened up to each other. We told each other our past/current issues. I think that hike we took brought us closer in some way. We relied on each other instead of getting frustrated with each other.

Something clicks inside me. I knew I liked Rapunzel before tonight, but something happened that I like her even more now. She's just so beautiful. Her sparkling emerald green eyes. Her golden blonde hair that just glows from the camp fire. Her personality is fun and energetic. No mater how much I have hurt her in the past she still has love in her eyes.

RAPUNZEL's POV

We stay at the camp fire talking. We sit closer together. I'm really enjoying this. I don't want to leave this moment. It's starting to get pretty late. It's about 10:47 pm.

"We should probably head back to our cabins." I say sadly. "Yeah, we probably should. I really enjoyed this though." Eugene says at first with a sad tone, then changing to a more happier tone. "I really enjoyed it too." I say with a smile. We start to walk away and then something happens.

"Rapunzel," Eugene says with me stopping in my tracks. He never calls me by my name. He always calls me Blondie. Wow. "Would you like to go out with me?" He asks slowly and very cautiously. I turn to face him, I walk up to him, and I give him a smile. "Yes, I would love to." I say kindly.
