Chapter 19 .
"Can you pass me my socks" Lucas asked me as I folded my black shirt and placed it into my suitcase
I balled them up and threw them behind me
"You have bad aim"
I look behind me to see his perfect ass as he bent down to pick up him balled up socks
"DANIELLE! LUCAS!" I hear as my dad callas for us downstairs
We look at eachother, shrug and walk down the stairs to see a tall thin women standing in the doorway. She looks young but very sickly, a grey complexion
"Lucas" My boyfriends name escapes her dry cracked lips
"You need to leave" I turn to see Lucas shaking with anger and hatred rolling off him in waves.
As I look between the 2 of them, I see a striking resemblance. The blue eyes being the obvious one except Lucas's are filled with joy and happiness while hers are filled with sadness and desperation
"Please Luc, I need you. I need my boys back." She pleads, placing her hands together in a begging motion
"How did you find me" Lucas asked, teeth clenched
"Your brother told me where you were, I just wanted to see you" she says softly
"I'll just leave you all with some privacy" My dad says as he takes my mothers hand and slides around the door and outside
"You need to leave, you can have all the money you want" he says, taking a menacing step towards his mother
"I don't want money; I want you to get away from me" he yells
"Lucas" I say, standing on the stair behind him, putting my hand gently on his back
"What" he says, turning around with so much force he knocks me down
"Danny! I'm so sorry, are you okay?" he says, extending his hand towards me
"It's fine, im fine" I say, getting up myself and ignoring his extended gesture
"Who is this Luke" his mother says, smiling and stepping towards us
"No! you don't get to do this! You do not get to come into my life and make me love you again only for you to take everything and leave! If you do not leave this property right now, I am calling the police"
"Lucas! I made a mistake. I made a mistake and I don't know how else to fix it, your father died and I didn't know how to handle it. I had 2 beautiful boys and I had to do it all alone" she says as tears are streaming from her eyes
"Drinking all day and partying all night was not nearly the right way of handling it. I think you should leave now because this is done. I am happy with my girl friend, Dolan is happy with his. I Have made a life for him and I, since I was 18 and now that we are FINALLY HAPPY you CANNOT come and ruin that. So get the hell off this property" he says, fists clenched, stalking towards her like a predator stalks their prey.
I stand on the stairs, frozen and un able to help.
"Okay, I'll go. I love you.." she says, turning around and walking out the front door
Lucas walks down the last of the stairs, and slams the door behind his mother. He leans his head against the door and slams his fist against it
I walk towards him
"Stop Danny" he says, head still leaning against the door
I close the last of the distance between us and wrap my arms around his torso
"I'm sorry you had to see that" he says, turning around and hugging me back
"It's okay, you're okay, everything is okay, I love you" I say, my words being muffled by his grey V-neck.
