She melts into my arms, quietly sobbing into my shoulder.

I did not know her mom was THIS much of a bitch. Who does this to their own child?

I kiss her head and she begins to calm down. After five minutes she's stopped shaking and is only hugging me.

I swear to god, I'm going to murder her mother. Is she okay?

I lift Brianna's head from my shoulder and her cheeks are puffy and his nose is red. His eyes look a little bloodshot but nothing more. I wipe her tears and she frowns at me.

"I'm sorry," She whispers, shaking her head. The only light coming from her laptop, "you really shouldn't have to deal with this." She closes her eyes and I lift her chin.

"Don't apologise for something you don't have to," I say and she lets out a shaking sigh, "what happened?" I ask and she shrugs, still shaking her head. I can tell her thoughts are practically eating her alive.

"She's always, always favored David. It just," she takes a deep breath, "it just really sucks." Her head falls down and I stare at her. Seeing her cry makes me feel... Terrible. I want to kill whoever made her cry.

"Why'd she-"

"She's thinks that your my boyfriend." She answers and my eyes go wide with shock.

"I'm sorry, what?" I chuckle and she nods, Brianna looks back at me with embarrassment.

"She thinks that your the real reason I broke up with David."

"How the fuck does she come up with an accusation like that? Why the hell does she care so much? Even if we were dating, it's none of her business." I yell and she bites her lip to stop her from crying. My stomach churns with anger but I keep to myself.

"She loves David so much, more than I ever have. Hell, I don't even think I loved him." She laughs, wiping her tears.

"I mean, I'm pretty sure she's just fucking with you." I try to lighten the mood but she only shakes her head.

"I know her, she's not joking." She wipes away the tears spilling out of her eyes.

"So, where are you gonna go?" I ask sympathetically and she shrugs.

"I don't know." Her voice is hushed.

Her mom's a fucking wh-

"I could-"

"Why don't you stay with me?"

What?

"What?"

"Why don't you stay with me at my dad's house until you can get a apartment or something?" She stares at me blankly.

"Shawn, I don't think-"

"It won't be weird or anything. We've slept together before, why don't you just stay with me and wait until you can afford an apartment." I insist but can't interpret the words coming out of my mouth.

WHAT THE FUCK AM I DOING? I'm going to be at MY DADS FUCKING HOUSE. This is a mistake. She's just a joke. She's just for my side. She's just for fun. So why the fuck-

Her phone buzzes on the bed beside us and we look over. She hesitates to grab it but when she does her face falls and she runs her eyes. I grab the phone and look.

Mother

3 days to move out. I'm done with your fucking bullshit. Your 18 in 11 days. Grow the fuck up.
10:03pm

I stare at the phone in disgust.

"How are you gonna stay in school?" I ask and she looks up.

"I have a scholarship but not for the dorm." She wipes her eyes yet again and I bite my lip.

"Brianna, your not fucking staying here, obviously, please just come stay with me?" I beg and she lets out a breath.

"Shawn..."

"Please, just fucking do it." She looks up at me.

"Okay."

"R-really?" I ask and she nods.

"Yeah, I guess so." She smiles and I smile back.

What the fuck did I just do?
