Please Don't Leave Me

Chapter 20

I woke up the next morning to a knock on the door. I mean really 7:00 in the morning?

I walked downstairs quietly trying not to wake anybody up.

I opened the door and sighed.

"Why are you here?" I asked Reece.

"I had to-" he started.

"No I mean why are you here at seven in the morning?" I said as I walked into the living room inviting him in.

He came in and closed the door behind him.

I sat down on the couch and he sat next to me.

"I need to talk to you" he said.

"No!" I gasped sarcastically.

"Look, I know it's weird now cause I said that I did all of what I did for you" he said.

"Why though. Why tourcher.. Wait kill, my little sister and brain damage my brother who by the way might not wake up." I said.

"Cause they were keeping me from you!" He shouted.

"Oh my gosh be quiet! If Jared's parents realize I let you in-" I began.

"Okay sorry" he whispered.

"Keeping me from you? Reece, my little sister didn't even understand the concept of love yet. She still thought that boys had cooties." I sighed.

"I know. I didn't try to kill her that one was an accident. You know that A." He said.

"A? Okay. Anyway, I know you didn't try to kill her but you DID try to kill my boyfriend" I said.

"Yeah because I wanted you. Okay. I still love you. A lot. And I don't think I'll ever get over that." He said looking down.

"Why can't you? There are plenty of other girls and you choose one who is already taken and um isn't very happy with you" I informed him.

"Look, I've known you forever. We grew up together and we dated sophomore year. After you broke up with me I went crazy." He said looking me in the eyes.

"Oh believe me you went crazy" I said.

"No. Alana, I actually went crazy. My mom called the police because she was scared I would kill her. They showed up at my house at least four times a day. My dad was always at work, but was afraid that I would show up with a chainsaw and kill him. They tried to put me in physical therapy but I refused. I thought that if I couldn't have you then no one could. Alana I am truly sorry. I took people who you loved away from you. I killed your little sister. I put your big brother in a coma. I killed Libertys mother. I don't expect you to forgive me. Or I mean to even ever get back together with me. Heck I don't expect you to even be friends with me. I mean who would want to right? All I'm asking, is that you please. Please. Believe that I am sorry." He said as a tear slipped out of his eye.

I started tearing up. Here is a guy that has killed my whole family. My mom isn't even back yet. Oh gosh.

"Reece, I know that you love me. And I know that I have a boyfriend. I know you never cry but" I started to say but a tear slipped out of my eye I laughed and wiped it away. "Sorry. Killing people isn't the answer. I mean you deffinently won't get a girl like that. Man you should really work on that." I laughed as I wiped some more tears away.

He laughed a little. "So do you believe me when I say I'm sorry?" He asked.

"Reece, not only do I believe you" I said.

A smile grew across his face.

That made me smile. I haven't seen his smile in forever. Man that is one gorgeous smile. Alana stop! You have a boyfriend.

"But I forgive you, Reece Mason." I smiled as a tear slid down my cheek.

He started crying.

"Thank you so much A. I mean Alana I'm sorry I have no right to call you A" he smiled and sighed.

"Hey, call me anything you want" I smiled.
