Past Perfection

Chapter four

Brandon pulled Skyler closer to him. He lifted her easily and placed her on the dining table and stood in between her legs. A throat being cleared interrupted the kiss from getting more passionate.

"Am I interrupting something?" Chace spoke irritated. "You're home early." She spoke as she turned her head away blushing. Brandon stepped away and helped Skyler of the table.

"Yeah, mom and I was worried about you." He said looking between the two. "I am going to go now. I'll talk to you later, Sky. Chace." Brandon said with a nod before walking away.

"One moment Brandon. I want to talk to you. Skyler I'll talk to you later." Chace said before walking with Brandon outside. Chace was fuming. "Explain. When and why?"

"I like your sister. Something about her pull's me in. When she gave me a kiss on the cheek, thanking me for last night, was the only thing I wanted to do is kiss her. So, I did."

Chace clenched his hands into fists. "What happened last night?" "She couldn't sleep so I read to her and left when she fell asleep but I just made it downstairs when she screamed. I held her and we both fell asleep on her bed."

Chace took a deep breath and blew it out. "I can't forbid you two from seeing each other but know one thing. If you hurt her, make her cry, make her sad and if I even think you made her scared will I not hesitate to kill you. She went through enough shit as a child and I will always protect her."

Chace said combing his hand through his hair. Brandon nodded. "I have no intention of hurting her. She told me about the attack."

Chace's eyes snap to Brandon. "What precisely did she say?" "Nothing much. Just that she was attacked on a rainy day and that he wore a mask." Chace nodded. "That isn't even the tip of the iceberg."

"What precisely happened to her?" Chace shook his head. "That is something I can't tell you. Only Skyler can tell you what happened but don't force her to tell you but what I can tell you is that it would give you nightmares."

Brandon left soon after and Chace went inside. His mother and Skyler were at the table waiting for him. "There you are. I was beginning to think that we should eat without you." His mother teased him.

He sat down at the table and ate with his family. "When is dad coming back? I miss him." "He misses you too Skyler both of you. He said he will be coming home next month."

Oscar Cavallari was first a business man who gave the business temporally to his brother to run until Chace takes it over. He was now a doctor who worked for doctors without borders.

Once everyone was finished eating Brandon asked to talk to Skyler. They went to the fireplace and sat down on the couch. "Before you start. I am twenty-one. Almost twenty-two. I am an adult and can make my own decisions."

"I am not going to forbid you or Brandon from seeing each other but I don't want to see you get hurt. I won't get in the way of you and Brandon if you promise me you will tell me if anything he does bother you, if he hurts you."

"I promise." Chace hugs Skyler. "You are my only sister. I don't want to see you get hurt again."

Skyler was laying in her bed when her phone rang. It has been a week since she and Brandon kissed. He would call her and they would chat for hours. "Hello?" "Morning beautiful. Get ready I am taking you out. Dress comfortable. I'll see you in a half hour." Brandon said before hanging up.

A half hour later did Brandon pull up in the driveway on his motorcycle. Skyler was waiting by the door dressed in blue sneakers, black denim and brown leather jacket.
