*Luke’s POV*
I can’t believe Katherine was drunk! What the hell? Okay I know whatever happened today was really weird but still, no! She has absolutely no right to go and drink whatever in the bar! And then she starts kissing me?! Okay, I know I loved it but it’s just not right. I don’t want to kiss her just because she’s wasted, that is taking advantage of her being drunk. I want us to be real. To feel real.
She pressed her lips against mine, hard; and then tightened her grip on my shirt collar. I could feel myself tensing now, I had to put all of my desires away, I had to get out of here, now. I ran out of the door and heard a loud thump, she must’ve collapsed. I can’t pick her up right now, I have absolutely no control over myself and I don’t want to regret anything.
I had even saw her like that earlier. I don’t know how to describe myself at that time. She was just so… perfect? Damn it, why was I thinking about that right now? That was not going to help at all.
I ran to the beach. It was dark as it was like midnight. The waves were louder and more dangerous than ever.
“Aaaahhh!” I screamed in anger, throwing a rock in the waves. I watched it make a pop and then sink, deep.
That really cooled me down. There was no one at the beach thank fully, it was just me and the waves, all to myself.
I jumped into the waves. I could feel the water splashing on my face as I sinked even lower into the water. I love Katherine. I love her more than ever. Worst of all, I care about her so much that it hurts to see her cry or harm herself like right now. I can’t believe I left her all alone in that room where she collapsed, hard. Where she needed me the most, I left her. I quickly got out of the water and ran to my room. I was soaking wet, but I need to get Katherine safely on her bed.
“Where are you going, kiddo? Why are you all wet? And where’s Katherine” Dad asked, running into me on the way to our rooms. Dad and Lauren finally came back from the beach party.
“I’m going back to my room. I just thought I needed a swim so I’m wet, that’s all. Katherine’s uhh, she’s I think downstairs” I lied quickly. I would be in big trouble if Dad saw her collapsed on the ground since she was so drunk.
My dad almost turned our room door knob…
“No! Stop. I mean uhh, you can go if you want but I really need to change right now since I’m shivering wet. Just let me change and then you can come” I quickly said and ran into the room and shut it closed so that dad won’t be able to look inside.
Kat was curled up on the floor. I grabbed her and made her lay gently on her bed. Her blanket was lying on her bed. I pulled the blanket over her and took the strands out of her face so she could sleep comfortably.
I put on a fresh pair of clothes and went to say good-night to Dad and Lauren.
“Night dad, night Lauren” I said as I opened their door.
“Alright honey, you go sleep” Lauren told me, smiling nicely.
“Yea sure” I mumbled and slammed the door shut.
As I was laying on my bed, thoughts kept on coming in and out of my mind. I kept on thinking about Katherine. About what had happened earlier. About how everything was just so screwed up for her right now.
I should have knocked before trying to open the door. I shouldn’t have seen her like that. I shouldn’t have let her get drunk. I shouldn’t have let her kiss me unintentionally. I bet she didn’t even like me deep inside. I mean I am her step-brother. Why would she like me, anyways? What I was feeling for her was probably one-sided this whole time. What the actual fuck.
