Is it Enough to Love you (A Josh Hutcherson love story)

Chapter 23: Incest Issues

Hey guys!!! Sorry about all the cliffhangers I promise not one this time and I know Brendan is slightly creepy but Im having a lot of fun with that character so try to like him cause that character is the best thing to me hahahahahaha :3

Chapter 23:

"I'm sorry." Was all Brendan could say as he was standing in my doorway.

"For what I'm the one that flipped out." I made an attempt at laughing but it didn't exactly sound right considering there were tears still running down my face.

"That you did." He laughed subtly walking towards me across my room.

"Why aren't you with Connor?" I asked confused as he casually sat down next to me and wiped the tears off my face with his sleeve as though we had known each other for a long time. I smiled thankfully comforted by the company of someone who seemed so kind.

"He's freaking out a little bit." Brendan answered actually laughing this time. He took my face in his hands and pushed my cheeks up forcing me to smile. "There it is."

"Stop." I laughed and pushed him away. "I am very capable of smiling on my own."

"Then why don't you?"

"Because I'm sad."

"Well don't be."

"Why?"

"Because I don't want you to be sad."

"Brendan we just met, I'm almost positive that my happiness is absolutely none of your concern." I laughed as he stood.

"Almost positive." He winked at me as I stared into his green eyes. Green eyes always just had a way of making me melt. Brendan's couldn't compared to Josh's eyes in my perspective, but that is only because I fell in love with Josh's eyes, but it didn't matter because he would never look at me the same again, because everything between us had just been a huge lie. But Brendan's eyes gave me butterflies and I liked that, they didn't make my heart ache and they didn't make me want to cry or throw myself into his arms and beg him to hold me, they made me want to smile, so I did but I ended up looking towards the floor unable to stare into his eyes any longer.

"Come on let's go back downstairs, and work out your family incest issues." Brendan coaxed me towards the door.

"You know I'm not actually related to Josh and Connor." I looked towards Brendan with an eyebrow raised.

"Really? I thought you were some long lost love child or something."

"No." I laughed genuinely amused as I walked through the door of my room tripping and grabbing Brendan to try to stay up but taking him down with me.

"Jeez Charlotte I would love to but didn't you just get out of something." Brendan smirked at me as I laid under him on the ground.

"Get off me!" I flailed around still laughing like an idiot. Brendan stood and pulled me up.

"You know I don't weigh that much, I probably shouldn't have been able to take you down that easily."

"I know." He answered me making me turn to him wide eyed and slightly pissed but didn't say anything as we went back downstairs.

"Connor." I mumbled entering the kitchen where Connor was pacing.

"Hey." He blankly said refusing to look at me.

"I lied." I took a deep breath before actually lying to one of the only people in my life who had never hurt me.

"What?" His attention snapped towards me.
