CHAPTER 13

I dropped my phone and just stood there shocked. The sound of my iPhone landing on the floor made Brent stir and change his position.

His arms were moving around, probably trying to find me.

"Tallulah," he began as he sat up. Brent rubbed his eyes and his voice was sexually croaky. His hair was messy but not in a bad way and he was still topless, "What's wrong." He said as he noticed me. I couldn't speak, after how many years my dad only chooses to talk to me now. When I'm happy and okay with my life, he chooses to call me. A few muffled words could be heard coming from my phone and Brent got up to pick it.

"Hello who is this?" He asked.

"I'm Mr Durley, Tallulah's father. Who may I ask, are you?" My dad replied.

"I'm Brent, Tallulah's boyfriend and you sir shouldn't call her again." Brent replied and hung up. He drew me into a hug and I sobbed into his chest.

"He ruined my life," I cried, "and my mum's."

"It's okay." He said as he calmed me down. I yawned and Brent took me back to bed. I felt safe in his arms.

My Blurred Lines alarm went off at around 7 and I groaned as I got up. My arms stretched above my head and Brent rolled to the other side of the bed so he faced the wall. The spare clothes I kept in Brent's house was in the cupboard so I got them out and laid them on the chair. I headed towards the shower and was greeted by Brice.

"Hey Tallulah." He smiled while taking a spoonful of cereal.

"Hey." I replied whilst brushing my hair back with my fingers.

"Nice sleep."

"Yeah great thanks." I smiled and walked into the bathroom. I'm going to miss this place.

A towel was securely wrapped around my body and I dried my hair with another. I walked into Brent's room to find him on my phone.

"What is this?" He asked showing me what he looked at.

-I have your tickets, collect them from me ASAP then you can get packed, Mum

I frowned and rubbed my face.

"I'm sorry. I can't tell you." I got changed as quickly as I could, ignoring all of Brent's questions. I almost got out of the door when Brent dug into my arm, his nails seeping into my skin.

"Ow!" I screamed, snatching my arm away from him. My hand came into contact with Brent's face and the connection could be heard from downstairs.

"Brent, Tallulah are you guys alright?" Brent's mum shouted from the kitchen.

"Yes Mrs Rivera," I replied then turned back to Brent, "Don't talk to me at school." I scowled.

"Why would I bitch. I'm your fucking boyfriend and I should know what's happening. No wonder your dad left y-" Brent covered his mouth. He went too far.

"Fuck you." And I left slamming the door. I ignored everyone calling me and headed towards school.

Rebecca was all over Brent today. Her hands almost always touching him and it made me sick. It didn't help that Brent and I were partners and I had to spend all of lunch with him. He tried talking to me but I just blocked him out. Tomorrow is prom and I honestly don't know what to do. I'm leaving then.

"Tallulah, what is the answer." Mrs Burn asked, interrupting my thoughts.

"Erm I erm it was erm, what was the question." I stuttered and the class laughed.

"Go outside Tallulah, bring in the textbooks and come back. They are quite heavy so you can get your partner to help you." I sighed and followed the instructions. When I got to Brent's class I took in a deep breath and knocked on the door before entering.

"Hey sir can I borrow Brent please." I played with my fingers as I waited for him to come out. He followed me to the history office and helped carry the majority of the textbooks.

"I miss you." He admitted and I bit my lip.

"It's been a few hours Brent. I'm sure that's not true." I sighed. Brent walked towards one of the desks and placed the textbooks down. He took the ones I held and placed them down too. Brent walked over towards me and placed strands of my hair behind my ear. I bit my lip down continuously and Brent sensed my want for him. He pushed me against lockers and began kissing me. It was rough and Brent was desperate for this. I could sense it. Fingers raked through my hair and one hand went up my shirt and rested there.

"Anyone can see us." I reminded but Brent continued the kiss.

"So what. They know we're together." He smirked and found his lips on mine again. I smiled into the kiss and Brent let out a small chuckle.

"TALLULAH DURLEY AND BRENT RIVERA, GET TO YOUR CLASSES NOW BEFORE YOU BOTH GET DETENTION!" Mrs Burns shouted. We separated and turned to look at a cross Mrs Burns.

"Brent we better hurry, I can see a vein popping out of her forehead." I whispered and giggled. Brent got the textbooks and returned to his class. The thought about my departure hit me and that queasy feeling returned again. I'm leaving Brent Rivera tomorrow and he doesn't even know...
