Stuck in Crazy Love

Mom? Dad? (Part 2)

"Slut!"
My mother slapped me hard across the face. I turned my face in shock.
She told.
I didn't know Georgie would actually tell. Didn't she know how big of a deal this was for us? What the heck is going on? I don't even have to think about my summer plans...summers over...my life is over.
"I would never-," she broke down crying.
"Mom-", I placed my hand on her back. She smacked it away. "I can explain!"
"She doesn't want your explanation. None of us do," Georgie growled at me with hateful eyes.
I looked around at the disgusted eyes in front of me. They all thought of me the same way. As a slut.

"Did you guys forget that Ethan is included in this?!" I was feeling betrayed and humiliated.

"Ethan?! Don't you dare drag him into this!" Beast and Lewie [i think] shouted at me.

"You told the kids too!" I shouted at Georgie.
"You seduced Ethan!"
"Eh-what?!" I blinked back. "We did this together! He loves me! We can't help our feelings for each other!"
"He has no feelings for you! We're all related in here, Harley. You can't love your brother or sister!!!"
"Is that what you told everybody, Georgie? That this is all my fault?! You saw what went down in that room that night! Ethan shares as much responsibility and humiliation as me!"

"Ethan is innocent! I know it!" Rachel yelled.
Mom called me in her room to talk. On the way I kept in my tears. Where's Ethan? He should've come out to defend me by now.
"Harley...I have no idea what to do with you. As your mother,  I have to love you. But this is unacceptable! I have enough problems surrounding Ethan right now-
"Mom! What kind of mother are you!? Can't you accept me for who I am?! Cast me out but stop humiliating me! Georgie is lying mom...Ethan loves me too. We've been trying to hide from each other but for the past few months we just haven't felt like bro-
"That's the problem!!! You don't understand! I'm not mad with you for loving Ethan...it's not even like a big deal considering his relationship to this family." She shook her head nervously.
"His relationship to this-what??"
"Harley...I'm sorry that I have to do this but it's to keep us alive. All of us. Ethan can never know about it. I have to be on their side so that everything remains quiet. And you...go stay with Mabel."
"What?! I can no longer live here? You're still part of this family but if you stay the kids would get all riled up and attack you."
"But why Mabel? Who said her family would take me in?? And where's dad?"
"Because that's the only place where you'll be safe. I'll change your name and you will live with Mabel. And your father...he's dead."
"Mom. It's not funny."
"You know him as dead for now. That's all I can tell you."
"Mom what kind of life are we living?!"
"A dangerous one honey. Curses follow up to millions of generations." she said while packing my stuff. "Tomorrow you will leave. Don't contact us and I will meet you once a month if possible to keep things cleared up."
I stood there emotionless and speechless as my mom told me about our complicated life I never knew about.
If there was one thing I got from this its definitely the fact that Ethan...he's not my brother.

Ethan's POV
I heard them. I heard everything.
But like a fool I sat there.
Sat there and let them tear her to pieces.
I could've stopped them. All I had to say was that Georgie was lying and that I loved her. But this was pushing it. Im not Being harsh only to her but too myself too. But it's the only way to stop these ridiculous feelings.
After I watched Harley go in moms room to talk I fled back in my room before they saw me. But Harley saw me...I knew she did. The small glimpse she threw upstairs. I betrayed her.

"What's going on?" I asked after coming out.
"It's ok, Ethan. Moms handling it. Harley's leaving," said Georgie.
My heart felt awfully heavy. I wanted us to change our relationship not have none at all. Nothing was working out the way I planned. They all think Harley's the bad one. And now moms moving her out??

"Ethan?!" I heard someone yell behind me.
I turned around to face Harley. She gave me the look. The emergency look. As being close we were supposed to use those looks to show extreme need of help or frustration. She wanted to talk to me about something else other than what happened last night. I felt it. Either way...I ignored her.
"For now stay in your room, Harley." Mom said.
On her way up she stopped in front of me. I looked at her. I wanted to kiss her badly. It was like she read my mind. Ignoring everyone around us...she slammed her lips into mine. I didn't budge. I just stood there showing no emotion afraid the wrong one would come out. As if she understood me, she went up to her room ignoring the calls of mom and the trashy words of Georgie. I can't believe that bitch told.
I too ignored everyone and went to my room.
I was no longer hungry.
And I regret not eating that day because I was going to be hungry for a long time.
