Thief (n.g.)

Chapter 35

“We're home!" Nash yells as we walk in the garage door.

  “Nobody's home stupid." Hayes chuckles.

“You're here, oh wait…" Nash fires back.

  Hayes smiles.

“I'm going to take a shower." Nash says.

“Kay." I nod.

Hayes seems not to notice and to be in his own little world at this moment. Nash leaves.

I bend down to pick up the shoes beside the couch.

“So you're name is Babe? Sorry I haven't talked to you much, I've had a lot of catching up to do." He says leaning over the arm rest of the couch.

“Oh, no I understand. And yeah that's my name here."

“And otherwise?"

“That, is a secret."

“What?" He questions.

“When I moved here, I wouldn't tell them my name, so, they nicknamed me Babe." I shrug, it was such a normal thing to me now. I almost forgot my name.

“So let me get this straight, you've lived her about a month or so, you're dating my brother, another one of them likes you, another is supposedly you're best friend, everyone here claims that your just amazing, yet no one knows your name."

“Pretty much." I shrug. “No one knows my name to my knowledge."

Nash's POV

“(Y/n)?" I question.

“Yep." Bethany answers me.

“I like Babe better."

“Anyone would, that's a fugly name!"

“Yeah, yeah, so when do you want to meet?"

“Anytime you want babe."

“Kay well I've got to take a shower, so bye."

“Later, don't think about me too much."

Babes POV

“Why won't you tell them your name?" Hayes questions.

“Because, no offence to you, but they aren't exactly your average family. I didn't really trust the-"

“You think they're insane too?!" Hayes whispers intensely.

“Not insane! Just… miss guided."

“Miss guided? Babe, they deserve to be in jail!" He motions his hand to the hall to the stairs, I think he was referring to Nash. “I thought when I got here, I was going to be apart of a big happy family, not one more psychotic than the last!"

“No Hayes! You can not tell anyone!" My mind flashes back to that first night of me being conscience in the house. The words Brenna said to me echo.

“No, I want you to understand what those boys and that one girl mean to me, you hurt them,  I hurt you twenty times harder!"

“I know that! I love them! I would have left by now if not. I just don't think it's right." He sighs.

“Me neither, but, we don't know the whole story, who are we to judge?"

“Right." Hayes agrees. “Lets not tell them we talked about this."

“I know, I wouldn't want them to know either."

I jump and fall over when the door behind me flies open.

Hayes jumps to his feet to help me up.
