Fighting Flames

Chapter -7

Me and Rebecca went to my room and sat.

"Rebecca tell do you like to dance?" I asked.

"Yeah I do. And call be Becca please." She was polite.

The reason I asked her about dancing was because even I loved to dance when I was young.

"What do you do? " She asked
I smiled at her and said " I run business. Would you like to go to the fair today we will have fun and come to know each other. You met the boys right?"

"Yes I did and I'd love to got the fair with you. Why didn't you live with mommy if you are my sister?"

I knew such questions would come but I didn't guess so soon.
"My business was here right then if I lived with you how will I run my business?"
I answered.

"My house was so small but yours is so big why are mommy and daddy not rich like you? She asked.

" This is not my house I live with my friends remember?" I lied.

"Oh"

I smiled. "Go get ready because after the fair we are going to go shopping."

" Really? Mommy and daddy never let me buy things I wanted. You would let me right?"

"Of course princesses"

My sister. She was so cute. My replica.
I knew that instant that Dustin was right. I was not alone anymore.
She was my family. The guys were my family. And I can feel. I do have feelings.

The best part I'm over my parents. I don't love them.

*Time skip to fair*

We had already done all rides and played all games. We were at the fair from the last three hours. Becca loved being with us and I was happy she was forgetting about her parents.

"I seriously don't want to die of starvation so please please please Kiara let's go eat something" said Cameron with a hint of drama in his behavior.

We all laughed.

"Okay jeez you don't have to go all save- me -from- dying idiot. Becca let's go eat?"

Out of the five of us she was the only one who wasn't tired or hungry yet. It was like she was having the time of her life.

We all left the fair and went to a diner near by.

By the looks, it was cute and the smell of freshly baked cake was coming. It was a cosy little place and had little chandeliers lighting the booth. It had wooden floors and was not too crowded.

All of us gave our orders and ended up eating more than we normally would.

Next we decided to go shopping. Becca didn't have a lot of clothes and even I needed something other than black on my closet.

Cameron was attached to Becca. She reminded him of Samantha.
As Andrew and Cameron left with Becca to help her buy clothes and left me and Dustin alone.

But the sly smirk across Cameron's face didn't go unnoticed by me.

With a developing crush on Dustin I didn't want our friendship to go down the lane.
So I decided to avoid my feelings.

Me and Dustin were looking for some more clothes.
I already brought a few coloured t-shirts. The ones that showed my tattoos.

I brought track pants. I was looking for more shirts when Dustin came to me with a dress.
A freaking dress.

"There is no way in hell I am wearing that."

"Please"

"No"

"Please"

"No"

"Please"

"No"

"Please. For me. No for you. No for the world."

"Oh god stop rambling and give the dress."
I said finally giving in.

"Just show me how you look."

I went in and tried the dress. It was blue and white and had three layer. It was made of soft material and had jewels around the neckline. The sweetheart neckline gave more of a classy look to the dress and it ended near my mid-thigh.

I came out and saw Dustin's expression. His jaw was hanging.
He let out a low whistle and his met my mine.
"Who knew you had curves worth dying. You are so buying it and I am paying."

"What why?" I asked.
He shrugged. "Go in and change."

After I came out he payed for my dress.
Dustin so far was sweet and nothing like the school said. Nothing like the badboy I thought he was.
Maybe he decided to use the badboy facecade to hide his problems. But he didn't do that with me.

We were making our way out of the store when I saw Amy come. I knew she didn't remember me but there is no way possible that she'll forget Dustin.

Dustin hadn't noticed her. But she had noticed him.

"Dustin" came her high pitched voice. Oh god.

Dustin looked at her and his carefree expression became guarded. He had a frown and a brow raised. Overall he looked bored.

"Dustin why didn't you answer my calls and texts?"
"I was busy?" He replied more like questioned. The last few days were unusually very eventful.

"You did not even come to school. You have no idea how- " she stopped at the middle of the sentence when she noticed me.

Not that I minded the earlier arrangement I knew I'd have to answer her questions.

"Who are you? Dustin what are you doing with her?" He questioned her eyes plainly bored.

"That's none of your business" Dustin spat. I didn't get this sudden change in his behavior.

"Let's go" Dustin said and dragged me to the parking lot.

"Why did you all of a sudden changed your attitude. That was kind of bipolar you know?" I said chucking.

"You have no idea what was coming after that. I just saved you from her drama. She would have shouted telling people how I cheated on her moving around with another girl. God knows who gave her the idea that I'm he boyfriend." He said.

I laughed. That girl is a queen bee. Of course she is a drama queen.

We were waiting for Becca and the guys when I got David's call.

"Hello? Kiara listen very carefully. You have to go back to your house right now. Do not come out of your house till tomorrow. When you are going to school keep your guns and ropes. Be ready for a fight. And I know about Becca. For her I'm sending Jeff and Cody to take care of her in the school. You have to take extra measures o stay safe and no way on hell leave Becca or the guys alone. Okay. Don't ask questions now. I'll visit tomorrow and explain the situation to you. Be careful."

I was shocked. I saw a text from Cameron saying they had already left.

"Dustin get in the car now. And call Cameron and ask them to reach home as soon as possible."

He looked at me a little confused but nonetheless followed.

When we reached home I had to answer many questions when I myself was left unanswered.
