Red and White Flags || Oliver Sykes

7

It's been two days since I've texted Oli. We haven't really talked since then, which wasn't a surprise. I knew that all of this was just another one of his tricks to fuck over me. He probably just wants to hook up, and then leave me again, or maybe I'm just overthinking everything .

We have one more day until we fly to the U.K. Cassie was really excited when I told her. I didn't tell her about meeting up with Oli; I just told her that we are taking a trip out there. She still freaked out since the boys live there. I'm just really nervous, scared, and excited all at the same time.

A part of me hates that I'm exited to see him, but what's the worst that could happen. A LOT OF THINGS! A lot of things could happen while we are down there. I could catch him making out with another girl, he tells me that he just wants to be friends, he takes Cassie away from me, everything imaginable could happen.

"I can't believe we are leaving tomorrow to the United Kingdom. There are going to be so many hot British boys!"

"Calm down Cassie, you are only thirteen. I'm more excited to show you around where I grew up."

"Are we going to meet grandma and grandpa. I've never met them."

I completely forgot about my parents. That's now another problem that I have to worry about.

"Um, maybe. Are you all packed? We leave early in the morning tomorrow."

"Yeah, I have everything. I just can't wait to go, I can have true British tea, and crumpets, and biscuits, which are apparently cookies."

"Yeah, make sure you get some rest. I don't want to hear you complaining about being tired, okay?"

"Fine, but not yet, it's only 7:46. I'll go to bed around nine or ten."

"Okay, I'm going to be in my room if you need me, goodnight love." I leaned down and kissed her cheek.

My nerves were still to bad to go to sleep, so I just checked my phone. I was at first looking at the news, but all of it was just about Donald trump, which wasn't very interesting. My phone buzzed and showed that I had a text from Oli.

Oli: hey Natalie. I should be asleep, but I can't stop thinking about the fact that you and Cassie will be down here by tomorrow. Words can't describe how I feel right now, and I really want to make everything up to you. Your parents actually wanted to know if you'll visit them, but I told them that you hadn't planned on it. They really do miss you. You may think that they are mad, but they are just upset that they haven't spoken to you. I'm gonna try and go to sleep since it's 1:13 here. I'll be at the airport to pick you and Cassie up. Love you.

My heart started to race. First off, my parents want to see me, then he's going to be picking us up? I wanted at least one day without him, but I guess I won't. What am I going to tell Cassie? Well, I already told her that Oli and I was friends, so this could be understandable. I just really need to think of a time to tell her that Oli is her dad. I could either tell her myself, have Oli tell her, or just have her find out by someone else. All I know is that she is going to fine out sooner or later.
