My Twitching Mess (Ticci-Toby love story) #Wattys2015

Chapter 6- I'm so sorry

"Becky's parents are dead." I stopped in my tracks.

"Th-They're dead?" I ask, a crack in my voice.

"I'm so sorry. I have no idea who did it, but when Toby took you to his room, mom got a phone call saying that they both died in a terrible car accident."

I started crying again, and Toby ran up to me and hugged me, stroking my hair and calming me down. Lyra took the message and left, closing the door lightly as she went.

"I am so so sorry Becky."

"It's not your fault." I sniffle and use the tissue from earlier. "This has to be the worse night ever."

"Aw come on it can't be that bad!"

"How can it not?! I got beaten, and now orphaned."

"But you get to live with me now."

"How do you know that?"

"Mom will gladly take you in, no matter what dad says."

"Thanks but, still doesn't make this day better."

"I know what can. I-I love you Becky, and I hope you feel the same way" I look up at him, and smile at him weakly then hug him fully

"I love you too Toby." He smiled and kissed me, I kissed back and it felt amazing.

We pulled back after a while and then i rested my head onto his chest.

"Hey you know what tomorrow is Becky?"

"What?"

"My birthday, I'll turn 17, and its Lyra's birthday as well, we were born on the same date. weird huh?"

"Yea! That's really cool. Looking forward to it."

"You know what the best part of it all is?"

"What?"

"i get to spend it with you." he smiled and I blushed like crazy.

"Cràp I just remembered something." I admitted.

"What?"

"I haven't got you anything for your birthday!"

"It's ok. I feel like this is my, early birthday present."

"What is?"

"You, dating me." I blushed but smiled at him.

"Well then, happy birthday." I giggled slightly and kissed him again. He kissed back, smirking slightly. There was a knock at the door, so Toby pulled away and answered it. It was Mr. Rodgers.

"What are you two doing in there?" He asked, slurring his words.

"Just talking." Replied Toby, clear hate and anger in his voice.

"I heard what happened to Becky's parents. Sorry about that." he said, an actual hint of sincerity in his voice. Me and Toby both smiled a bit.

"Thanks sir." I reply, smiling back at him.

"Anyway! So you're staying here now right?"

"That's right. I think so anyway."

"Stay outta trouble then and go grab your shit from your house. Don't leave anything behind because somebody will wanna move in there and they don't wanna find your shit lying around everywhere."

I giggled slightly "Will do Mr. Rodgers." He gave a crooked smile for a split second before changing it back to his normal look, and leaving.

"Did you see that Toby?" I ask him.

"No what?"

"N-never mind. Come on let's go get my stuff." I left the room and Toby followed behind. I walked down to my house and unlocked the door with my key. I grabbed all of my stuff and locked the door behind me, then putting the key into the mail box. We slowly walked back and placed all of my stuff back into Toby's room before collapsing onto my bed. Toby laid down next to me and held my waist and we talked for hours.
