You make me crazy

somethings are just sad

I made the patties and while they set for half an hour in the fridge, I started to grate the carrot and cheese. I also had to slice the tomato, beetroot, lettuce, pickles and my brothers favourite ingredient; pineapple. I only made these when Anthony came home, to stay.

A knock on the door brought me from my thoughts about Anthony. Walking over to it I looked at my phone and saw that it was only 6:30pm.

“Hey,” Zayn greeted as I opened the door.

“Hey,” I replied back awkwardly. I really hope tonight wasn’t going to be as awkward as I thought.  “Come in.”

We walked into the kitchen and he sat down at the bar table while I fried the patties.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t meet you earlier today,” I said sadly not looking at him since I felt really guilty.

“It’s okay, I’m sorry for ignoring you while we’re at the arcade yesterday, so I guess we’re even,” he said trying to make it sound okay.

“Yeah I guess,” I flipped the patties, seeing as they were perfectly cooked, I put them on a plate and said “Come on dinner’s ready,”

We sat down and started making our burgers. We sat in silence, just as we were about to eat my phone rang. I got up from the table as I said “Excuse me, sorry Zayn,” as I answered my phone.

“Hello Mollie speaking.”

“Hey little sis.”

“OMG Anthony!” I exclaimed.

“Yeah it’s me little sis. I guessed you missed me?” he teased.

“Yes, of course I missed you, you idiot” I love you so much!” I looked over to Zayn and his face dropped, he looked really sad and hurt.

“Well you can tell me all about what up, when I come home in two weeks.”

“Yay! I can’t wait I’m so excited. Sorry I have to go I’m having dinner with my boyfriend, Zayn.”

“Okay see you soon. Love you lots Monster.”

“Love you to Anthony,” With that I hung up and sat back down. “I’m sorry about that Zayn, I didn’t know he was going to call.”

“No it’s fine. You ex-boyfriend is coming back and you still love him. It’s fine. I’ll go,” he said getting up walking towards the door. This brought tears to my eyes and I started to cry. “Why are you crying?” he snapped at me. “You still love you ex-boyfriend, yet you still go out with me.”

I sobbed for awhile when I realised that he thought Anthony was my ex-boyfriend.

“You’re my first boyfriend,” I sobbed.

“Yeah right, if I am then who was Anthony?” he was angry, very angry.

Still sobbing I replied, feeling hurt, “He’s my brother.”

“What the… oh shit. I’m sorry Mollie. I didn’t mean to get angry I just didn’t know,” he came over and wrapped his arms around me trying to comfort me. “Come one let’s finish eating. I have something I want to tell you after.”

In silence we finished eating dinner. What would normally taste delicious to me tasted foul and horrible because I felt sick with hurt and pain of what Zayn had said. Offering to help do the dishes, Zayn and I cleared the table. Not long later we were sitting in the lounge.

“So what did you want to say?” I asked him, sitting awkwardly on one side of the three seater couch.

“You… we shouldn’t keep having to be this awkward, you know what I mean right?”

“Yeah I know, it’s just, well you jumped to conclusions; guessing my brother was my ex-boyfriend.”

“You never told me about your family.”

“True, well there is my mother, Grace. My older brother, Anthony. My father is dead. Other than that there is my aunty, you know her, Heather.”

“I’m sorry.”

“Okay, it’s late I should get going.”

“Oh okay. I’ll see you at school tomorrow?”

“I’ll come by and pick you up, in the morning.” he kissed me on the lips bringing my into a hug. “I love you.”

“See you then.”

The next day went fast, no one seemed to notice that Harry and Niall were missing. That’s must have been how Justin Bieber wanted it. All day I was getting the evils from Justin. It reminded me that if I didn’t do what he wanted my family’s lives were on the line.

“arwyn!” I yelled running at her, pulling her into a tight hug.

“Haha, what’s up Monster?” she laughed at me hugging me back twice as tight.

“Guess what!”

“What!” she squealed knowing that it would be good news.

“Anthony’s coming home!” I screamed happily.

“OMG when?” Arwyn yelled. At one stage she had a crush on my brother, but then again who wouldn’t? He had a body of a god. If he wasn’t my brother I would top that.

“In two weeks he said. I can’t wait to see him, I hope he brings me another Letterman Jacket of his,” I love his jackets.

“Are we gonna have a burger night like last time he came? We could invite all the boys,” she suggested just as Justin, Zayn, Louis and Liam walked up to us.

“What’s this about burger night?” Liam asked licking his lips.

“Yeah because count me in,” Louis said looking hopeful.

“Anthony is coming home, and everytime he does Arwyn and I throw him a burger night,” I said knowing that Justin will do something to stop this.

“And who is Anthony?” Justin asked smirking. I could already see what he was thinking.

“My brother, so unless you’re gay you high baboon, don’t think about trying anything,” calling him a baboon ticked him off.

“You brother is gay?!” Zayn yelled

Arwyn and I cracked up laughing. We laughed until there were tears in our eyes and we were bent over clutching our sides.

“Wow you are an idiot,” Arwyn said sobering up.

“My brother isn’t gay, the looks on your faces were priceless. Anthony’s girlfriend died a few years ago.”

“Oh,” all the guys said

“And also my niece,” tears started rolling down my cheeks.
