Torn up. ~Flamingeos Fanfiction

Chapter 140

I CHANGED THE TITLE OF THIS BOOK ♥

There was silence for a while. My brother was staring at his lap, clearly trying to think of where to start. Eventually his eyes met mine and he let out a long, deep sigh. 

"I was jealous." 

I frowned yet again as anger and confusion overcame me. Being jealous isn't an excuse to make someone beat you up, instead it makes the entire situation worse. I wanted to tell him all of this but I couldn't. I didn't want to speak... I didn't want to waste my breath on him. I didn't need to anyway. Dylan spoke for me. 

"What the hell dude?" He snapped as he towered over Theo with tense, crossed arms. "Do you have a crush on your sister or something?"

Theo rolled his eyes. It wasn't a playful roll with a slight smile, it was an irritated one. "In all honesty I don't know where the jealousy came from." He sighed. He sounded doubtful and looked as though he was lying.

Out of nowhere realisation hit me. It was hard to not yell "oooohh" when I realised what was up. It was so obvious! The way Theo looks up at Dylan, the way he quickly turns away after staring at him for a while with blushed cheeks. 

Theodore has a crush on Dylan and he was jealous seeing Dylan get all "cosy" with me. 

"Theodore... I know why you were jealous." The room went dead silent the second I began to speak. Everyone's eyes stared at me as though I had just told them the real meaning of life. Theodore looked the most shocked... and the most scared. 

"N-no you don't!" He spat, his sudden anger causing my heart to flutter in nervousness. 

"I do." My voice had turned low and serious, I couldn't help but feel sympathy for my brother. Yes, him making someone beat me up was wrong. And I can't forgive him for that. But my brother liked Geo and must have thought that we liked each other seeing as we always talked... and now he likes Dylan but clearly thinks we both have a thing for each other. 

I looked up at Dylan who gave me confused eyes, and then back at my brother. My brothers shocked face turned to panic which showed that I was right.

"Told you." 

"Can you both leave for me?" Theo was looking at both Dylan and Geo now. They hesitated for a while, clearly not wanting to be together seeing as they hate each other. But eventually they obeyed by slowly walking out of the room, soon after going completely different directions. I couldn't help but let out an amused grin.

"Okay... you're right." He sighed, his head lowered down as his eyes gazed upon the floor. Even though I knew I shouldn't, I reached for his hand to grab it. His hand felt strangely smooth and cold, even though it was June. His eyes which were filled with tears then gazed into mine. "I'm not bisexual... it was just a cover up so that Dylan wouldn't think I love him."

"Dylan doesn't love me, nor do I." I reassured him as my thumb stroked the palm of his hand. "I'm dating Geo if that makes you feel any better."

A handsome grin appeared onto my brothers face. "I mean, a few years ago it would have broken my heart but I don't care. He's a nice guy." 

I nodded, butterflies filling inside of my stomach. I was about to ask my brother about Dylan as I could see the subject was changing. But to my surprise Theo wanted to talk more about Geo and I.

"How long have you been dating?" He asked as his golden green eyes stared directly into my crystal blue ones. Both sides of my mum and dads family have a reputation of having beautiful, bright eyes which has caused my brother and I to have eyes which stand out like there's. It's something I've always been proud about.

"Uhhh... over a year. Or maybe even two." 

Theo let out a soft chuckle, one which made me smile myself. I missed this guy a lot. "Are y'all thinking about marrying? Or even getting kids?"

I let out thunders of laughter straight after gasping by the question. "I'm seventeen!" I giggled, "we've only known each other for four years too!"

"Whatever." Laughed my brother. His amused face then turned to seriousness. "I... I was just wondering because I found a video on Facebook of Geo. He was kissing Loren..."

"Oh. It was probably from ages ago." I tried my best to act calm, but in reality I felt like I was going to have a panic attack any second. My breathing had increased in speed, as well as my heart beat. I could even feel sweat beads rest on my forehead as my brother gazed into my eyes in silence.

"I was there. It happened a few days ago, straight after Geo had a fight with Dylan." He allowed me to grab his phone as the video played. I could mainly hear kids cheering and laughing and saying my name. But none of that mattered. All I cared about was what was happening on the floor. 

I could barely see Geo's face, but I didn't need to. He was allowing Loren to kiss him. 

I dropped the phone on Theo's lap and then stormed off without saying anything. 

First Acacia, now Loren. Can I really trust him anymore?

For all my UK readers....we are very fortunate to live where we live; although a lot is happening in London especially, it wont change us or make us scared. Not only does it make our security stronger, it makes us people stronger. The only advice that I can give is to not stay out late as these terror attacks seem to be happening at night. I love you all and stay safe! These sick losers can't stop us from having fun or feeling safe.
