"You denied our foster offer" Ashton spoke as he entered.
I stayed silent.
"You told Luke that you wanted a family." Ashton spoke, grabbing my hand.
"We can be your family." He spoke quickly.
"You just have to trust us and let us love you-" "I did trust Luke." I spoke quickly.
"Mila, you know how you're sad constantly now? How you've had multiple breakdowns? How your heart is aching?" He spoke to me quickly.
I nodded to him.
"That's how Luke is." He spoke.
"I just left his office, but before I did I was hugging him as he cried, because he lost the trust of the one person he loved like a little sister." He spoke to me, making tears grow exponentially.
"Luke was doing his job, he had to tell them and he feels worse than anyone in this entire hospital." He spoke.
"All of our hearts are breaking for you, we all feel as if we betrayed you, but we want you to forgive all of us. We want to start over, we want you to give us a second chance, and you get the chance to tell your story to all of us when you're ready." He spoke quickly.
"You don't know?" I asked quickly.
"Mila, he only told Blake and Brennan, because that's who he was legally required to tell." He spoke to me quickly,
I was silent, just looking to him.
"Just- think over all of this and stop making rash decision, I told your social worker to hold off on finding your home, because I want you to be in our home." He spoke quickly.
"Push the nurses button after you've thought about it, and if you want I can bring Luke to talk to you- which he would love the opportunity to do without both of you having mental breakdowns, but if you want to just leave and not speak to any of us, you can do that." He spoke as he stood.
"Just know that everything I just told you is the truth and nothing but it."
He left me
And I sat there, thinking
If Luke wanted to hurt me
He would've told the guys too.
And just like that, I realized how selfish I was being.
I finally thought about everything, and I got up immediately.
I took the IV out for the second time, putting a bandaid over it.
And I started walking towards Luke's office.
His door was cracked, but I knocked anyway.
"Come in" his tired voice spoke.
I walked in, his back towards me, his hands clearly messing with his face, but I shut the door behind me.
"What do you need?" He spoke.
"I'm sorry that I wouldn't hear you out." I spoke, seeing him immediately turn towards me, his red puffy eyes almost shocking me.
"I thought that you established a relationship with me to just get information from me and to tell them, but Ashton just told me that you didn't tell anyone but who you were legally required to." I mumbled.
"I never wanted to hurt you, Mila." His voice cracked the entire sentence.
"I trust you."
