Just My Luck

Chapter 15

*Bentley's Point of View*

     I had finished my hashbrowns and eggs and was eating my fruit salad I had noticed Skye sigh loudly about three times in one minute. I rolled my eyes and paused the best show in the world.

"Yes?" I asked looking over to her as she sat in our mom's chair. She hardened her lips then scooted forward.

"Bentley, I, I love you, and, don't be mad, but-" I cut her off.

"Skyler, cut the crap, what's up?" I stood up taking my plate to the kitchen.

"I'm going to dad's for the weekend." she blurted out and I stopped and closed my eyes. Not this. Anything, but this.

"Did you talk to mom about this?" I said as calmly as I could as I walked from the sink to the edge of the kitchen.

"Yeah." she stood up and walked a little closer to me. "I know you have hard feelings against him, but B, he just messed up."

"No, messing up is forgetting to close the fridge, messing up is using the wrong 'their' in an essay. He cheated on mom, left the family to live with that hoe Whitney!"

"She's actually really nice. Please don't yell at me."

"I'm sorry, you're right."

"He wants you to come too." I chuckled angerly and she just nodded. Like that would happen!  "I'm going to go get ready and pack!" she bounced up the stairs and I just grinned. After washing our plates a knock came to the door.

"What's the password." I screamed. The door then opened to see Valencia shaking her head.

"You should lock your door." she said very parent-like.

"Calm down Liam!" I exclaimed walking over and hugging her.

"You look like crap!" she screetched.

"I know! But you look great!" I replied shoving her away from me glarring at her. I shut off the TV.

"I know!" she flipped her hair over her shouler.

"I'm now overwhelmed!" I joked, then sat down on th couch, my knees immediately to my chest. "How'd you get here anyway?"

"My brother drove me." she said plainly.

"Ewww!!"  I shouted.

"I know, but he'll take us to the mall, so yeah." she then looked me over and smirked.

"Oh so the 'so yeah' meant, Bentley get up, get dressed and look pretty?" I shook my head and she smiled. I stood up, the doorbell rang at the same time. Skye barreled down the stairs.

"It's Dad!!!! Don't answer it!!!!" she pulled behind her a blue suitcase. When she opened the door he let himself in. 

"Daddy!" she screamed and gave him a hug and a kiss. "I'm almost ready, I just have to get my magazine!!!" he nodded and she ran back up the stairs. He looked over at me, I looked away. I hated to be reminded I got my green eyes from him.

"Bentley, you look older." he plainly stated.

"John, so do you." I snapped back.

"I am your father.-"

"If this is a Star Wars reference, don't even try." he looked saddened, but I didn't care.

"I would've loved for you to join us, were going camping and I know Whitney would've loved to have you there." he reinvited me.

"We'll we have a concert were trying to attend, so yeah." I finished as Skye came back down the stairs.

"Okay love you B!! Bye Val!" with that they both left. When the door slammed, I turned around on my heels, Val was now sitting down. I sighed really loudly and put my head in my hands.

"Awkward!!!" she shouted and I just laughed, laughed because it was way to awkward to do anything else.
