Not So Typical Playboy

Chapter Eight

†Reese's POV †

     I held Mira close as she told me all her insecurities and told me all about

that douche Calvin. She told me how she hurt Michael and tried to make

things feel better by cutting and trying to kill herself. I let tears roll down.

It's hard hearing that someone you care about wants to die, and that they

feel like no one wants them anymore. She told me why she didn't want to

be with me, that she didn't want to do something stupid , but she stayed

because she didn't want to loose me like she lost Michael. She told me that

both Calvin and Michael started to come to our school. I clenched my fist

as I heard Calvin's name. He used my Mira-cle whip... And he's going to

pay. Mira cried into my shoulder and I let her. I sighed and said to her,

"Mira, I haven't been totally honest with you either... No, don't talk... just

listen. My parents died when I was 12. They had three kids, Angel, Zero

and me. We didn't have any other family members. So we live in a group

home right now. I have to fight to keep us together. Angel has a weird type

of static fever where it is unpredictable. Zero and I do our best to make

sure she is hidden so no one takes her away from us. I wouldn't be able to

live without my Angel. Also I am not a Playboy. I haven't ever done

anything like that. Your brother and I have talked about this. He kind of

promised me you. He told me that you would be perfect for me. That I have

to earn your trust before you tell me anything. He said that you would be

good for Angel, do you want to meet her?" Mira looked up at me and

nodded. She was so sweet. I smiled and took her hand as we walked to my

bike. I gave her my helmet and she decided that she wanted to drive. She

wasn't bad at it, just not experienced. Plus she didn't have her license. But

I let her anyways. She laughed as she drove. We drove to my home. Angel

was there with one of the other people who lived at the group home. I

brought Mira in and took her to Angel's room. I saw a small blonde head

peeking over the covers. Her big blue eyes were currently closed. I put my

finger on my lips and brought her to Angel's side. I smiled at her and sat

down on Angel's bed. She stirred and slowly woke.

"Rweesy!" She smiled and put her arms up for a hug. I smiled and hugged

her thin body. I pulled away and I said,

"Angel, this is my friend, her name is Mira." Angel got shy but got braver,

'Are you going to be my new mommy?" My heart melted as I saw Angel's

pleading eyes. Mira smiled and said,

"You can call me that." I grinned, Angel is so happy right now,
