HIDDEN (Hide Or Die)

Chapter 20

KYLE'S P.O.V.

"Wait! what?!" I looked at my mum then at Becky and they both looked ready to kidnap my Andrew.

"He has done nothing wrong!! I exclaimed but none of them seemed to listen or even acknowledge my presence and it made me very angry.

" MUM!! Andrew didn't do anything to deserve what you and Becky are planning on doing to him. If anything, just punish me instead, I was the one that kept stalking him not the other way round!" I Screamed and pleaded in a desperate attempt to save Andrew but it didn't look like I was making any progress.

I knew for a fact that mum was very capable of kidnapping Andrew. Mum might look weak or meek to people but that wasn't the case. I have witnessed over the years some very unspeakable things mum had done in her attempt to keep me safe and I have loved and respected her for going through such lengths for me. But, you could call me whatever name you liked I just couldn't standby and watch her add the love of my life to that list.

"You stalked him?! For crying out loud Kyle! Why did you do that behind my back? Didn't we make a promise to be truthful to one another?" Her voice broke at the last bit and I felt extremely guilty about lying to her but I didn't regret stalking Andrew. If anything, I was able to get to know him and feel close to him that way.

"I'm sorry," I said in a remorseful tone and she just shook her head meaning she felt disappointed in me. She waved her hand to Becky and Becky nodded like they had known each other for many years and were used to communicating in that manner.

I turned to look at Becky and I instantly became red with rage when I noticed she was about leaving, to carry out my mother's orders. With a quick move, I got up from the couch ignoring the sharp pain that followed and quickly grabbed her hand, holding it with all my strength.

"Where the fuck do you think you're going?!!" I yelled in anger, she paused and turned to me with a bored expression on her face and it so provoked me that I angrily growled at her. I fuckinly growled! I wasn't even aware I could do that!

"KYLE!" Mum yelled and I turned to her. She looked angry; well, so was I.

" Have you completely lost your manners!" She stared at me surprised and my mouth fell wide open.

"Did you just say manners? Really? Last I checked, I wasn't the one sending some psycho! Sego! Whatever bitch! to kidnap and innocent boy all because my son had a boner from acting like a pervert!" I screamed at her.

Instantly, I regretted my choice of words. Mum's face had suddenly changed, she looked so hurt like I had just shoved a knife through her heart and it broke mine. Without thinking, I quickly rushed to her side and pull her in for a hug.

"I'm so sorry mum, I'm really sorry. I don't even know why I said that I just felt so angry! I didn't really mean it that way. I'm so sorry." I cried into her neck. She hugged me back and then pulled back to look at me.

"I know baby, and I forgive you but you have to trust me, I will explain everything you need to know when all this is over I promise." She pulled me in for a quick hug then she hastily ran up the stairs.

"Mum! Mum!" I called out but she didn't reply as she disappeared from the stairs.

I turned to Becky only to realize she had already left the house, I sighed in defeat as I looked down at my injured arm and shoulder which were hurting like hell, knowing I couldn't do anything to stop her or mum, I quietly sat back down on the couch and cursed my weakness and stupidity.

******

I sat quietly and tried to think rationally; mum had never lied to me before, I have always trusted her judgments so for her to go this far, something extremely serious must have happened or was going to happen. My only problem was, she had to drag my poor Andrew into something he clearly had no business with.
