*Kiara's POV*
I snuggled up in my old bed with a satisfied sigh. It was good to be back and living with Alexis again. I could actually afford a new pair of heels. "Hey, Ki, I'm going on a date with Aiden, I'll text you when I'm on my way back" Alexis poked her head into the room with a big grin and I shot her a thumbs up with a smirk. It was still a little painful looking at her. I knew she cheated with my ex, I couldn't even say his name anymore, because of the photo that India and Liza showed me though Alexis denied it. I decided to let it go though, there was no point holding a grudge against my sister anyway. She had apologized and had reacted to my confession about being gay pretty well to my surprise.
I clicked play on my Mac book and started an old season of Pretty Little Liars. My plans for this weekend were pretty simple, now that I didn't have to work my butt off in that stupid bowling alley. I hadn't told India and Liza that I was back in good books with Alexis yet, their reaction wouldn't be something I wanted to see now. The doorbell rang and I groaned, shifting out of my comfortable posture on the bed and hitting pause on the video with too much force. "Alexis, did you forget something-?" I began as I opened the door to find a smug faced Regan Jay standing with his arms folded. "What do you want and how did you know that I moved here?" I snapped feeling apprehensive. "Chill out babe, I'm here for a bargain" He grinned but behind the smile I saw something else flash- Anger.. Or was it jealousy?
"I don't make bargains with fuck boys. No thanks" I turned the offer down and tried to shut the door but he held it firm. "Trust me you'll want to know this" His voice sounded almost desperate and I let out an annoyed sigh. "What?!" I pulled him in and closed the door. "Well, it's a very dirty and rough secret that the famous Hell on Heels keeps" He snickered. "Lexi? What about her? What secret?" I wanted to smack his annoying smirk right off his face. "You'll have to work to find that out." He said quietly, his eyes burning through mine. "B-But" How could I do this? Not when I was with Tzara. No, I couldn't. But what was Alexis hiding? "Why are you doing this?" I questioned suspiciously but he only shrugged. "Let's just say I'm not too happy with her seeing that bloody nerd, Aiden West" He sneered and I sighed, giving in. "This stays between you and me" I gestured to both of us, ignoring my guts that screamed for me not to agree. "As much as you'll stay between my legs" He smirked and pulled me onto the couch.

I gasped when I heard my phone buzz. "You need to get that?" Regan drawled and pulled me on his bare chest. I snatched my phone and checked my notification. "It's Alexis, she's going to be home soon. That's enough of.. Of this. Tell me what she's hiding" I demanded while pulling on a T-shirt and loose pants. "Aw, come on, we've still got time" Regan said quietly and pulled me back in between his legs. "Ew, I'm done. I did my.. Part. Now it's your turn." I shoved him away and folded my arms, jaw set. "Fine, fine" He put his hands up and grabbed his shirt off the floor and put his jeans back on. "But you may want to take a seat" He suggested slyly but I stayed rooted, stubbornly but filled with trepidation.

I slammed the door in Regan's face. HOW? How could this be true! It had to be a lie! All of it! But a bigger part of me knew it was real. Every word he had said was true. I wiped my nose and tried drying my tears but they refused to stop. "HOW!? ALEXIS FUCKING REN!" I shrieked to myself and threw her favourite mug on the wall with as much force, shattering it to pieces. "Why? Why? Why?" I hugged myself as I sobbed into my hands. I had an older sister and a brother. Used to. Andrew Shephard and Jane Shephard. They were real. Alexis had convinced me that they were just our imaginary friends from child hood till I forgot all about them. I was too small then and so was she. But of course she didn't forget about what happened. I didn't even know about it. They were a distant memory that was long before erased. My family pretended nothing had happened but they knew. And I fucking didn't. I bit my lip hard as I pounded the wall in hurt and frustration. The sound of keys jingling came to my ears and Alexis stepped in with Aiden.
She was smiling from ear to ear as he hugged her to her waist. I turned away. I couldn't bring myself to look at her. "Ki, do you think you could stay in your room tonight? Aiden and I were gonna watch a movie in mine" Alexis asked cheerfully and I turned to face her slowly. Taking one good look at my tear stained cheeks, red and puffy eyes and messy hair she stopped short in confusion. "Ki? Ki, what happened?" She ran to me in panic and took my face gently in her hands. "Don't.Fucking.Touch.Me" I spat in disgust and shrugged her off. "Wha-?" "YOU KNEW ALEXIS! ALL OF IT!" I screamed, ignoring Aiden back into the corner of the room and her flinch. "Regan told you didn't he?" She said in disbelief. "YES! EVERY SINGLE WORD! How you slept with him so I wouldn't find out about-about our.. PAST!" I could barely speak the word to her. "Y-You were sleeping with Regan?" Aiden came forward, his voice filled with shock. "Aiden, please, I had to. You don't understand" Alexis pleaded with him but he looked at her with hurt and disgust. "I thought all those rumours were lies. I trusted you, Lexi. I love you and you-you had slept with him to what? Keep a story that Kiara deserved to know all to yourself?" He made his way to the door and I could tell he was fighting the urge to cry, unlike Alexis who had tears streaming down her cheeks. "Aiden, I love you and I'm sorry. I should've told you!" She cried but he left, slamming the door shut. "Ki!" She whispered back at me desperately.
"How could you do this Alexis? My whole life is a lie. How could you tell me that Andrew and Jane were a lie? How could you AND mom and dad do that to me? Why? Why did you do it?" I was shaking her so hard that I knew I was hurting her. "I'm sorry. I was scared. I thought you'd hate me for what happened" She said quietly, her eyes flashing with remorse. "Not as much as I'd hate you now!" I said coldly and recoiled away from her touch. "I thought we could start over. No past. But it's caught up with us, I don't know I just wanted to leave everything behind, not just our strict parents! EVERYTHING!" She told me and ran her hands through her hair. I curled my lip. "So you lied? How would you like it if I gave you a sugary lie instead of the bitter truth?" I demanded. "Well.. Well, I'd choose the salty silence that kept me away from the harshness of the truth but still spared me the taste of lies that would rot my teeth" She whispered back.
I growled. This wasn't the time for her smart mouth. "We tried. We've buried our past, hoping that it's never discovered but what if it's like pirates burying their treasure? It's Precious!" I cried. I was done. Done with the lies and hidden truth. Done with desperately covering up my past and my real self. Done with everything including Alexis Ren. I walked away before she could protest. I walked away from my biggest problem. Mary-Lou Shephard.
