scotty sire & kristen mcatee; a love story

Chapter 7; the truth

// recap of the past 3 weeks: nothing much happens, just school and assignments. me and Scott are really happy together.

fast forward to halloween break // Kristen's POV:

"Do you have all your stuff packed?" Scott asked as he picked up bags. "Yes, some stuff i already put in the car though." I tell him as i throw my toothbrush in one of my bags. We both grab the rest of the bags and carry them downstairs. "Scott?" i say to him as he walks to the door. "Yes." he says while turning around. "Nothing." i say smiling. You see, theres something i've been keeping from Scott, and everyone. I decide it's not the right time to tell him and just keep smiling. I run into the kitchen before going back to the car to leave. "I'm going to miss you hunny." my mum says crying. "I'll miss you too mum, but you know i can't be here when Kasey is here." I tell her. "Yes i understand. I love you hunny." my mum says hugging me. "I love you too mum." i say. I then go back to the car and get in the passenger seat. Scott turns my head and wipes the tears from my face with his thumb. "You okay?" he asks. I just nod and look at my house. Scott drives away and tears roll down my face. 

We soon get to Scotts house and i head up to his room to unpack my things. When i get upstairs i see a photo of Scott and his parents, i decide i need to tell him. "Scott get up here!" i shout. "Are you okay?" Scotts asks as he walks into the room. "Scott, i need to tell you something." i start to say. "Awhile ago, in California, something really bad happened. It has to do with Kasey." i say. Scott sits on the bed beside. "You know you can tell me anything." Scott tells me. "I know, but nobody knows this Scott. Not even my mum. We all have secrets, but this, this is just dark. I'm scared you won't like me after this." i tell him. "Nothing Kristen, nothing could make me not like you." he said, comforting me. "Okay," i said, feeling slightly better. 

"I was about 12 years old and i was still kind of friends with Kasey. Something you might not know about me is i used to have a sister called Luna. She was about 1 year older than me and we were really close. I was with Kasey one day after school, and my mum was in Los Angeles with her friends so Luna and I were staying with Kasey and his parents at his house." i say starting to cry. "Kasey's parents where at the store and we were home with his older sister. Kasey and I where watching a movie and Luna was upstairs. I was texting another guy from my school and Kasey got made and jealous. This was at the time that nobody really knew Kasey was overprotective and controlling, apart from Luna who knew. I went upstairs and told Luna everything. Kasey got super mad and we didn't see him for the rest of the weekend." i say, now pouring my eyes out. "On Monday, Luna was driving me to school when she saw Kasey on his bike riding down the street. She drove towards him and as she came close the car beside her swerved, which forced our car to move and hit Kasey. Luna slammed on and our car forced itself to the side quickly. Luna hit her head when we slammed on. Kasey got off his broken bike and again, ran away. I called the hospital and Luna was rushed there. My mum soon got home and Luna had been in the hospital for about week or two until she, um, passed away. I didn't tell anyone the truth about the accident, because no one knew about Kasey obsessive behaviour. A while later, when everyone knew about Kasey's behaviour, i realised i should tell the police. Then i realised i would get in trouble for hiding the truth so i didn't say anything. I knew if i told my mum she'd go to the police. I, I just needed to tell you Scott." i say, tears all over my face. 

Scotts picks up my face and wipes away my tears. He cups my face and kisses me. "Kristen, nothing you tell me could change my feelings for you. Because... I, I love you." Scott says, stuttering nervously. My eyes open wide, more tears falling onto my warm face. "Scott," i say slowly. "Look its fine you don't have to say anything." Scott says, looking down sadly. "Scott," i begin to say again, "I love you too." i say, my smile as big as ever. Scotts throws his arms around me and we fall back laughing. "I am just so damn lucky." Scott says looking into my eyes. "Not as lucky as me." i say, my head now in his chest. We soon fall asleep on the bed.
