Troubled Life

Chapter 24: Long Time No See.

*The next day*

*Ara's POV*

"Look, trust me Ty. Ill be fine by myself. Go meet the boys, I won't break, I'm not glass." I practically pushed my brother out of the door. He's been hounding me and being my watch dog all day. It's after six in the afternoon and I need a little break.

"But Nate isn't here, he went with uncle Ben and uncle Alex, Mom and aunty Nat went to run some errands, and dad's at work."

"Leave." I demanded aggressively so he knows I'm pissed off and is about to blow a fuse.

"Fine." He gave in and I pushed him the rest of the way out of our doorway. "Call me if-" his comment abruptly stopped with me slamming the door in his face. I waited until his car started and I made sure he left before I texted Noah.

Me: okay I think everyone is gone. You could come over. I'll text cece.

I plopped myself on my couch with a sighed. I turned on the TV and put on Legacies. I grabbed my phone switching over to CeCe's contact and I sighed before texting her. The last thing I wanna do is bother her with my friend drama but he won't want to go to a doctor otherwise, so this is my only 'force him' option available.

Me: Noah's gonna come over pretty soon. When will you be here?

2 minutes later.

Cece: give me ten minutes sweetie, I'll be right there.

I let out a sigh of relief knowing that everything was gonna be fine... until my front door flew open. I was startled but nonetheless it was only my brother... again.

"What are you hiding?" He questioned.

"Nothing." I answered with a straight face.

"I don't believe that. You were rushing me out of the house. Something's up."

"Nothing's-"my sentence got cut short as Noah walked through the door at a bad time.

"Ara-" Noah said as he walked in to see Ty standing there, his sentence came to a close.

"Noah?! Is that what you're hiding?" He got into Noah's face. "I hope you're not doing the one thing I told you not to do." Ty growled dangerously low and I ran in between both boys separating them before Ty gets heated.

"I hope I'm not too." I heard Noah mumble under his breath as I speedily made my way to the two males.

"Ty look at me!" I put my hand on his chest pushing him back. He hesitantly looked at me with his jaw clenched. "It's not what you think. Breathe." He took a shaky breath in before exhaling and I did the same but with a sigh. "Good. Now. I didn't rush you out of the house because I wanted to hide something. I told you to leave because you need to have fun and stop worrying about me. I wont break. As for Noah we were texting and I told him I was home alone so he offered me company. Exactly what you wanted me to have." His facial features saddened after I was done explaining.

"I-" I cut Ty off again.

"I know TyTy. I know okay, worrying is what you do but I'm home. Nothing can get to me here. Now go meet the boys please." He looked at me skeptically. "Please. For me." I pleaded with him and he nodded giving in. "Thank you." I sighed as he left me for the door completely forgetting to apologize to Noah. He started his car and went to where he was supposed to be from the first time he left.
