Irreconcilable

Oh No I Did Not Just Say That

A few days after the shopping trip a court date was set for my parents. Having to face them is going to be awful. I have a week to build my case. I have 168 hours till I see them again and hopefully never see them again.

"Alexxxxxxx!" I drag out their name dramatically.

"What?"

"We've been around this for hours and personally I don't like watching and looking at my bruises body."

"Lunch," I perk up "then be are back at it. We need this case strong. In your favor!"

Where do you want to eat at?" I ask almost ignoring them but my body is trembling and I really just want to have a distraction from it all.

"Wendy's for sure!"

Yay! Let's gooooo!" I happily say pulling them out of the door and into their car.

When we arrive we get our and walk in to an almost empty restaurant. Wendy's is the best! I don't want to be around people. Obviously I get the spicy nuggs, a fry and a frosty! Alex gets a burger. Ew.

"So let's talk!" When we set down at the table Alex looks at me expectantly.

"About?" I ask.

"You.."

"You know practically everything."

"No, well yes, but you and Cain."

"What about us?" I'm confused. Do they..? "Do you...?"

"Know something is going on between you two..." they pause, "OBVIOUSLY!"

"No. Nothing is going on." I feel the heat rises to my face. Why though?! Nothing is going on between us!

"Put it like this," Alex looks dead at me and continues, "you have already grown comfortable around him, and Cain," Alex looks down and slightly smiles, "He is happier than I've seen him in years. Almost like he has his family back." The last was barely audible to me let alone to the people in the restaurant that had gotten busier. They clear their throat and looks back up at me and I give them a small smile. "Moving on, how are you?"

"I'm good" I say a fake grin plastered on my face.

"No, How are you for real?"

'Well honestly this all is just to much for me to handle. Dealing with all of this from my past and parents. The case building is hard because I've never had a reason to document the things they were doing because I didn't think there was any hope for me. It's almost impossible to me. How could I ever get through this? Cain. Then there is him. He confuses me. He..he...ah I can't even describe what I'm feeling! I've never felt like this about anyone and he doesn't even feel the same way. If not from the stress of dealing with the case and trial then I'm for sure going to have gray hair before I turn 19 dealing with him! Him and his mixed signals! That half the time I don't even know what the mean. We will be talking then he just shuts off! Or he is just standing in the kitchen at the end of island watching me with something I can't explain! I don't know what he is doing to me! I don't even think I want it to stop. All I know is 3 things.
One. I'm going to fight my hardest to put my parents in prison.
Two. Find out what a twink is! Still don't know!!
Three. Figure out what I'm feeling. But of course I couldn't say those things out loud.

"Sounds like a good plan ya have there." Oh no I did not just say that out loud!
