Only a Bad Boy

Chapter 14

I lean back "but" he opens his eyes with worry and sadness 

"but what?"

"i said i loved you"

"and so did i and i meant it" he says raising his hand to my cheek

"and so did i"

"then what's the problem?"

"I love you but not the way you love me, i -i always want you there with me, i want you to help me in times of need and be there for me whenever, i want to spend time with you i want to laugh with you, but i don't want to be with you, i don't want to be your girlfriend because i don't love you like that, i love you, but i love you as a brother"  i look up at hi and he has a blank expression, he says nothing "please say something" i plead

"You know i love you more than that, but i respect and understand the way you love me but i just need time" i see his eyes water and a tear rolls down my eyes, i didn't want to hurt him, i didn't want any of this to happen. He wipes the tear away from my face and says nothing while he walks down my driveway and i wtach im walk down the street until i can no longer see him. 

I calm myself down and head inside "MUM!" 

"yes honey" by this point i'm no longer sad i'm angry

"It's time to start explainng" she looks at me confused "we got a new coach today for soccer"

"is he good or bad?" she asks

"i dunno i never thought that he was a person i would ever see, his name is Nick" her eyes widen "but i don't call him that, i call him Mr Pierce or better yet i call him DAD!"

"Honey what did he tell you?" 

"is said for you to tell me so mum, why dont you tell me, why don't you tell me why my dad isn't actually dead?"

mum invites me to sit on the couch with her and she looks nervous but she starts to explain

"When you where younger your dad told me he went on business, but i soon got a call from man saying that he found him half dressed outside his house with his wife, i kne wthen that your father was cheating on me and having an affair with another women. I got a divorce with him and never saw him again, i told him he wasnt to come near you, because i daughter hsould think high and fondly of her father not as a scumbag" my mother is crying now and i move next to her and hold her in my arms trying to hold back my tears from her, to be strong for her

"mum?"

"yes"

"who was the women?" 

"Michelle Stevens" what? hahha no they just happen to have the same last name "you know her son" no no no, please no "I think his name is Noah" my heart breaks then and there, he knew, HE KNEW and he never told me. My mum heads off to bed and i grab a sweater and head down to the beach, i sit there and think.

I feel someones hand on my shoulder after a few minutes and i turn around to see him.

"elena?" i stand up and slap him

"HOW COULD YOU! YOU KNEW NAD YOU NEVER TOLD ME, YOU KNEW MY FATHER HAD AN AFFAIR WITH YOUR MOTHER AND YOU DIDNT THINK THAT WAS SOMETHING I SHOULD KNOW"

"ELENA! CALMD DOWN I ONLY FOUND OUT THIS MORNING AND YOU DONT EVEN KNOW ME, YOU THINK IT WOULD OF BEEN EASE FOR ME TO JUST TELL YOU THAT MY MOTHER HAD AN AFFAIR WITH YOUR DAD AND LEFT NOT SYAING ANYTHING AND TAKING MY SISTER AWAY FROM ME. ELENA THAT ISNT SOMETHING EASY TO SAY"

"YOU DON'T KNOW ME EITHER I THOUGHT HE WAS DEAD"

"AND YOU DONT KNOW ME" I look at him with watery eyes and i can't hold it in anymore i drop to the ground and cry i feel his arm come around me and i lean into him, we hug and i keep me head in his chest.
