"W-w-what are you doing here?" I pointed at Heath, my voice trembling. "He came to apologize. Hello" "hello" I greeted Rick with a hug. Liam looked like a sad puppy "no hug for me?" "I just saw you!" He smirked and I pursed my lips.
"Go man" Heath looked at me shyly and I crossed my arms over my chest and started tapping my foot impatiently.
Jeez, I must look mean and bad.
So, everyone would laugh at this. Three guys at my doorstep.
Way to go Em.
"I'm sorry Em, I'm sorry for all of the things I did and said. I admit I was much of a coward, and I, i missed you too, and-" he trailed off. Looking at my neck.
He looked concerned, "what happened there?" He said touching the scar.
"A vampyre bit me" "Em, I'm not a little kid" "you act like one, you're stubborn, you get mad easily, and you're not serious" "look who says it" I rolled my eyes, "I accidentally stabbed myself we a knife, or better said the knife accidentally stabbed me." He furrowed his brow and I narrowed my eyes. "Okay" I pushed him away from me "you apologize, I forgive you, bye bye, I'm glad I won't ever see you again". I said. Liam was about to laugh and I glared at him.
Rick looked at me, "I need to talk to you, Liam. Heath, stay outside" he never left my gaze. When they walked to the driveway, he came in and closed the door.
"Em, Heath really means his apologies" I sighed "I know, but, he messed with me so much I don't think I could ever keep up with him like that anymore" "Em" he ran his hand through his hair and them proceeded to grab my shoulders. "I know, he doesn't mean to hurt you, but it turns out like that" "what does that mean?" "Well, that he's always loved you, but people always seduce him" "by people you mean girls" I said and he nodded. "Rick, the problem isn't that  it's no secret that Heath is very handsome. The problem is that he lets them do it, and he plays with them, along with my feelings" "I know Em, but if only you listened-" "te estoy escuchando!" I said impatiently in Spanish.
Translated to: "I'm listening to you!"
"Calmate" (calm down) he said. I don't know why we started talking In Spanish.
"Ya me calme" (I already did) I said. He sighed.
"Bien, sí quieres hablar en español, bien por me, pero escúchame" (fine, if you want to talk in Spanish, fine by me, but listen to me) "ya! Solo dime!" (Just tell me!) I was losing my temper.
"Heath te quiere, Liam también, el problema es que creo que yo también" i stood frozen.
Here is the translation to what he said: "Heath wants you, Liam does too, the problem is that I think I do too".
"Y por que no me dijiste?" (Why didn't you tell me?) "i used to like you back in time, why did you decline?" I said "because I was barely sorting my feelings" he admitted.
"Rick, you are a good guy, but you are, to find another girl, I'm to messed up right now" "I know you want Liam, and I respect that, you deserve him, he makes you happy. I would only bring problems since most of my time is spent with Heath" "we can still be brother and sister!" I exclaimed. I smiled half-heartedly and he smiled sadly. He hugged me and I just came to a realization.
Three guys are after me, who am I after?.
I cupped his cheek and looked sweetly at him, awaring that he doesn't think I'm flirting with him, and said "you are the best brother in the world" I said, and stood in my tiptoes to kiss his cheek in a brother-sister way. More playfully than flirty. He smiled sadly and said "I love you sis" I hugged him and said "come on, here waiting for us". We opened the door and saw that Heath and Liam weren't there.
Uh-oh.....
