The Boy Next door

dead or alive? or simply lost?

-----------Mikes p.o.v-------------

he's back.

he's back.

he's back.

The words kept going through my head. who's back? why was she crying so hard?

I had asked her several times behind the stands but she just kept shaking her head and saying he's back but damn it who?

I had driven her to my house because she said she didn't want to go home yet she had told me she needed to calm down before she talked about it she said she couldn't talk about it right now but I didn't know what she meant.

-------- leanas p.o.v -------------

"hey leana it's Victoria I didn't know you had a brother? he is currently at our house he asked to stay for a few nights so that you guys can catch up so I said yes. be home soon"

I got that text about 4 hours ago I had been walking outside to go get Mike so we could go home as soon as I read the message the tears came and I fell on me knees un-able to breath I couldn't believe it this wasn't actually happening was it? This wasn't happening it couldn't be, my brother was lost over 9 years ago? wasn't he? well he was lost.... they didn't say he was dead but everyone assumed he was...? but now he wasn't? so many things were going on in my head I couldn't do it I couldn't face him again I just couldn't. then Mike came and I just cried more I cried into his shoulder while he just held me and asked what's wrong. It felt wrong it couldn't be happening, I couldn't explain it to him when I couldn't even fully comprehend it.

A nap was just what I needed I unexpectedly fell asleep on mikes bed and currently woke up in mikes arms and he was snoring...

"Mike? Mike! wake up!"

"hhhmmm? I'm up I'm up!"

"Mike I need to get home like now its important." I said get up from underneath the covers.

"Okay princess let's go I'll walk you over"

Tell me again why did I do that? why couldn't I just stay in the arms of Mike I felt so safe and now I'm just not... I felt so exposed and afraid of the world outside of his arms, I seemed to be feeling this alot lately..

The walk was quiet I was to nervous so Mike finally knocked on the door.

"Leana is that you?" I took a quick glance at his green eyes and scattered freckles. My heart skipped a beat and my breathing hitched.

"Alec?"
