Blinded

~Chapter 9~

I stared at him ad tears formed in my eyes.

"I thought you were dead," I said wiping the tears from my eyes.

"I did die," Junior replied.

"What?" I said. I stood up and walked toward him.

"I'm immortal Elizabeth, I never die well only from old age," he said smiling.

I laughed throwing my head back. I wasn't laughing out of humor I was laughing out of anger.

"So all this time we were 'friends'" I said putting up air quotes. "You didn't have the decency to tell me you were immortal! What about after you 'died' or whatever the fuck it's called, you couldn't drop by and let me know you were alive say 'Hey Elizabeth, it's Junior I'm alive?!" I said mocking his voice.

By now I felt my face become red, I was mad over the fact that he didn't tell me but more over the fact that I went through so much pain when he 'died'. I drank so much almost everyday, my mom even took me to therapy because all I did was drink and smoke. That was basically how I dealt with it.

"I'm sorry Elizabeh, I just thought I would give you time to get over it before I told you I-"

"How long were you going to wait, 12 fucking years?!"

"Elizabeth, your mom knew about this the whole time she told Harry to bring you here so you would find me," Junior said I saw his eyes get glossy I knew he was going to cry and I remember everytime I saw him cry it was painful.

I turned to face my mother and the boys were all staring at me but I didn't care.

I laughed hysterically. Holding on to the door frame. "Wow Junior, good one," I grabbed my phone and stormed out of the hotel. I ran out the door with tears in my eyes. I walked down the street and sat down on a bench. I threw my head back and looked at the sky.

I couldn't see stars but I did see a pitch black sky. I knew I would forgive Junior and my mother soon but not now.

I've never been this upset in my life, more because of the pain all this caused me.

"Better?" I turned and saw Niall sitting beside me.

"No," I said turning my head to look at the sky again.

"I know you're going to forgive them sometime Beth, just give it time," Niall said.

"Did you know about this?" I asked.

He stayed quiet.

I put my head up and asked him again. "Did you know about this?" I asked slower.

"Yes, but your mother told me it was a relative," he said.

I laughed once more. "Wow, she's on a roll today Niall, making me feel so much pain, not only that but lying," I laughed again, out of pain.

Niall wrapped his arm around my shoulder and I laid my head on his shoulder. "I love you Niall," I said.

He kissed my head. "I love you too Elizabeth,"

We stayed like that for a while and I began to calm down. I knew they had there reasons but I was upset that their reasons had caused me so much pain. Junior was my best friend and I eventually fell in 'love' with him.

I never believed in love before because of the simple reason that Junior never loved me back, but Niall had began to change that, slowly but everyday he did.

"We should get going," Niall said.

"Yeah," I sighed. "I should apologize,"

We stood up and walked back to the hotel.
