chapter ten.

ade's pov

it's the next morning after the shower incident.. and god was that heavenly. being with billie like that is like something you can't even actually put into words. all i can say is that i'm still pretty sore. but, waking up in billie's arms made up for the discomfort.

it's like 9am and billie's still asleep, so i'm just gonna go out into the kitchen and maybe catch up with maggie and the rest of the family until bil wakes up. i go to open the door, but then realize i'm still naked. damn, i'm so fuckin stupid.

i throw on some clothes from my bag, and then go out into kitchen and sit at their island.

"morning dear!" maggie says joyfully as she hands me a plate of vegan sausage and vegan pancakes. i've never really tried vegan food, but this food was pretty good.

"morning, and thank you for the food." i say as i smile and eat the rest of one of my pancakes.

"so how was your shower last night?" finneas says, obviously knowing what was going on. i completely forgot that his room was on the other side of the bathroom wall.

"shit.. uhm sorry finneas." i say as i awkwardly chuckle and turn as red as a tomato. luckily, maggie didn't hear our little conversation.

"ew finneas get away from her." billie says in a sleepy voice from behind me and takes a seat between finneas and i, which causes me to laugh. i love her morning voice.

"hey baby." billie says lowly so her mom doesn't hear her.

"morning love." i say as i smile.

"i'm gonna tell them. today." billie says as she happily looks around.

"what? tell who what..?" i ask.

"i'm gonna tell my family about us, silly." billie says as she chuckles and looks at finneas, motioning for him to come closer to her. yeah

"hey finn, i'm dating ade." billie whispers to him.

"oh, i know." finneas says as he shakes his head and continues to eat breakfast.

"shut up asshole." billie says a little too loudly, which causes maggie to look over at her and scold her.

"mom, i gotta tell you something." billie says, taking a deep breath.

"yes?" maggie says, giving billie her undivided attention.

"i'm um.. bisexual. and i'm dating ade." billie says as she bounces her leg.

"oh.. well honey that's alright. you know we'll always support you," maggie says as she smiles.

"and same for you, ade. your apart of the family too." she says which causes me to smile. i know my mom'll support me, but it's still good to know that billies mom likes me too.

"thank you, i really appreciate it." i say as i nod and smile at her.

after me, billie, finneas and maggie continue to talk for another hour, i get an incoming call from my mom. i excuse myself and step into the hall, clicking the accept button.

"ade?!?! where the fuck are you?!" she asks, obviously mad at something.

"at my friend billie's, remember?" i say.

"well you need to get home. i found a pack of cigarettes and weed in your room. get your ass home." she scolds and then hangs up. damn, i guess i didn't hide my things well enough.

"hey.. i'm really sorry about this but something came up and i gotta get home. thank you for having me over though i really appreciate it." i say to all of them, but more directed at maggie.

"oh ok sweetie! no problem, your welcome over anytime." she says sweetly.

"do you need a ride home?" billie asks as she gets up and puts her disk in the sink, then walking over to me and grabbing her keys from behind where i was standing.

"yes please." i say as i nod and sigh, probably making it too obvious that i was upset and nervous.

as soon as we get into billie's car, she speaks up. "is everything ok? i can tell that something's going on. what came up?"

"oh uhm.. nothing. i just um, need to go home i guess." i lie. i know that if i tell billie my mom found my cigarettes and then on top of that tell billie i was doing drugs, she'll flip.

"baby, cmon now. i know something's up. just tell me." she says as she puts her hand on my thigh to comfort me.

"fine. but you can't get mad. basically, my mom found my cigarettes in my room. but, i've quit. i got those before i quit, obviously. if my mom hasn't already, i'm gonna throw them away as soon as i get home. ok babe? i promise." i say. yes, i'm still half lying. but, i cant tell her about the weed. at least she knows some of it.

"okay, just please promise me you won't fall back into that shit." she says as she pulls into my driveway.

"baby, stay here for a second. lemme talk to her first." i say as i give her a kiss on the cheek, and then going inside, leaving her on the front porch.

"so your a druggie now? just like your dad? is that how you want to end up?" my mom says as she bombarded me with questions, my little sister staring from behind the doorframe.

"no, mom. i'm not a druggie. i've just been numb and needed something. it was a one time thing, i promise." i say as i tear up.

"it better be. if you do any drugs, ever again, your out of the fucking house. i don't care. you can't be doing this shit ade, at all. never again. you should be fucking thanking me that i'm not beating the shit out of you right now." she spits.

"o-okay. i'm sorry mom.. i just.." i start as i wipe tears from my eyes.

her cold hand drags across my face quickly, which leaves a red mark on my cheek. she hasn't hit me in a while..

"i. don't. care. there's no excuse. what you did was disgusting and disgraceful. and you, me and hope are going to church again starting next sunday. you need to be saved by the lord." she says as walks into her room and slams the door behind her.

quickly, i go to the front door to let billie inside but as soon as i see her i run into her arms, collapsing and sobbing into her chest as my arms wrap around her and squeeze her tight.

"baby girl it's ok.. i love you.." she says as she hugs me back and runs her hand through my hair. i love how billie doesn't ever ask what happened right away. she doesn't even want to know in that moment, she just wants to make sure that you know that she loves you and is there for you. and that's probably the best trait about her. she really is the most caring soul you'll ever meet.

"let's get inside mamas, i've got you." she says as she picks me up with ease and brings me to my room as my sister steps aside, then setting me down in my bed and gently pulling the covers up to my waist and then crawling in next to me.

"sorry bil-" i start, but am cutoff by her lips on mine.

"no. don't apologize." she says as she pulls off.

"i love you so much. your so good to me." i say as i sigh with relief and nuzzle into her chest.
