The Love Story That Began in a Tree House - Sisters? - [5]
**Present Day**
Krystal's POV
**Bell rings**
I didn't even realise I had pretty much missed a whole day of school standing here listening to Damien and Aiden recount the past events in relation to Genevieve. Students began to rush out of the school building,
"Umm... can you drive me home Aiden...please,"
"Yeah sure" he said as if he'd just snapped out of some sort of trance, he ran his hands through his sexily messy disarray of hair and walked towards the drivers side without so much as a glance at Damien. It seemed they'd rekindled an old rivalry.
"I'll see you tomorrow Dami?"
"Of course, uh bye" he stuttered then smiled before turning to walk towards his car, the smile didn't reach his eyes. I sat in the car next to Aiden; I won't lie and say there wasn't an awkward tension in the car but...
"Are you alright?" I asked looking at him.
"Yeah why wouldn't I be?"
"You just look a little... I don't know tense."
"Ha-ha can you blame me, it's the whole deal with Genevieve all over again, I hate arguing with Dame but..." he shook his head probably trying to shake the thoughts out of his head.
"hey don't worry it's in the past now so forget about it, hey can I pop over my place to see my mum before I come over later?" I saw his eyes widen, he must have forgotten about the deal but his usual smirk appeared on his face as he realised,
"Sure but don't take too long," he murmured against my ear as he parked in the garage. He got out quickly coming to open the passenger door for me before locking the car behind him and snaking his arm around my waist as we made our way toward the elevator, still sending shivers through my body at the feel of his touch. As soon as we got inside he pulled me up closer to him and whispered in my ear "I liked what you were wearing this morning, don't think I mentioned it"
I felt a blush creep up to my cheeks as I replied shyly "thanks"
He chuckled quietly next to me; the elevator dinged signalling we were on our floor. I got out and called out to Aiden behind me while unlocking my door "promise I won't take long"
"Okay" I heard him reply as I closed the door.
"Mum? I'm home I need to ta-" I began but immediately stopped when I saw mum sitting solemnly on the couch, "oh my gosh mum what's wrong?"
"Baby, theres something I need to tell you, and you need to know that I had no choice, well I did but..."
"mum what is it your scaring me"
"Remember how I said you dad left just as I got pregnant with you?"
"Yeah, why do you need to bring him up again?"
"Well I never told you why, see he was secretly still seeing his French high school girlfriend" mum said with abhorrence laced in her voice
"I don't get where your taking this" I said still utterly confused.
"Round about the time he got me pregnant with you, he got his girlfriend pregnant as well, and what I'm trying to say is that you have a sister"
"oh my gosh" I gasped quietly holding my hand over my mouth, but it looked like there was more to it. "what else aren't you telling me mum?"
"I met up with you father in Paris and his mistress of girlfriend whatever you want to call her, she passed away of cancer last year. He was left with temporary guardianship of her because they never got married, and for some reason she put my name down as next of kin to look after the girl or your sister."
"Step sister," I corrected
"Well yeah, so as you can guess I did the right thing and I brought her here with me"
"WHAT! You have got to be kidding me why would you do that?"
"Krysy I didn't know what else to do" she said breaking out in tears, I hugged her
"I'm so sorry mum, yeah don't worry you did the right thing, so where is she?" just as I finished asking that I heard the clicking of heels, I let go of mum to turn and see her walking down the stairs.
To say she was gorgeous was an understatement; I stood up and walked towards her holding out my hand to shake her hand as I said, "hey I'm Krystal".
"Hi, I'm Genevieve" she said as she reached her hand out to shake mine with a smile. I knew immediately that shock was all over my face as my mouth formed an 'O'.
The door buzzing immediately snapped me out of my thoughts, oh my gosh Aiden, I'll get it I barely whispered. I opened the door only slightly and whispered, "This isn't really a good time Aid, and I'll call you okay?"
"Why what's going on? Are you alright?" I'm sure the shock was still evident in my face
"Is that who I think it is?" Genevieve called from behind me as she walked towards the door, Aiden's widened in shock, disbelief and horror and he took a step back as he muttered more to himself
"It couldn't be?"
"Aiden!" she cried as she ran past me and hugged him, Aiden kept his eyes on me the whole time eyes still filled with the same disbelief. "It can't be..." he trailed off
