10 - cheated

————————————————————————————————

We went down the stairs where mom is setting up the ingredients, dad left to work and Ria went to shopping.

Luke grabbed my hands dragging me into the kitchen. he placed down the laptop on the counter typing how to bake red velvet cookies.

"Alright, we got it" he said while putting a fist in front of me and it left me no choice but to bump it.

"Grab the flour" he said without looking at me alright Mr serious. Then he kept ordering me around like some dang puppy "great I will mix it, go and heat up the oven".

I put the oven on the right temperature and turned back to him who was shoving a spoon in front of me "taste it" my head turned sideways not wanting to taste but his hands was on my chin making me face towards him again.

With no other choice I opened my mouth and then he shoved the spoon fast speed, I quickly took it up "what the hell" he was now patting my back while my eyes started to watering from the spoon going down my throat.

"There there" he smiled

Seriously you're smiling while I was close to throwing up. "The mix is great just pop it in the oven" I gave a thumb before heading towards the couch where Elijah sitting on.

Plopping down on the couch I ran my hand through my blonde hair "So your not tell me who is he really" Elijah said.

"Like I sai-" he interrupted me "bullshit you don't casually bring someone here except Damien" he said seeing pass my lie.

"He's just someone I hope to be friends with" maybe I should tell him to cut out with the flirting and the touching, I know Luke's not gay because all friends group does that especially Damien but when Luke does it, its taking up a notch.

Plus I fuck other girls and dated them then dump them in the process, that's exactly what am going to do with Ava. Imagining being gay was something that made me feel uncomfortable and mad for some reason.

"Fine, here" he handed me a controller to play some 'call of duty'. Luke hop on beside me on the couch "you suck at playing" he whispered in my ears.

Maybe.. I could just tell him tomorrow.

"Cute shirts" Ria who should came in "told you" referring 40 mins when I told him they're ugly.

"I will give you 10 mins until we start the cupcakes" he patted my lap and headed into the kitchen to get the cupcakes ingredients.

Yep.. tomorrow.

What the hell is wrong with me.

I need to set some boundaries before this spiral out of control.

Tomorrow..

"ARE YOU COMING HONEY" he shouted.

I let a loud ugh hoping that he heard it, definitely gonna talk to him.

——-

After we baked the desserts, we watched some more 'school spirits' with Elijah too. He kept on touching my thigh but quickly removing it again, definitely doing this on purpose.

His hands were reaching to touch me again but I quickly grabbed his hands and drag is ass out of here.

"Woah, were we going" ignoring his question, I opened the door and dragged him inside closing the door behind me.

"You need to stop this"

"Stop what?" Touching his black hair.

Please don't make me say it. "You know what am talking about" bitting my bottom lip in the process.

"No miles I don't" he walked towards me a little bit "mind if you break it down" I was staring at his brown eyes.

I gulped.

"Stop. touching. me" i whispered embarrassingly, his eyes widened and then seconds later he started laughing.

"Ok am serious Luke" folding my arms and pouting.

"Isn't that what friends do"

"Yeah but-" my door opened quickly revealing Elijah, he looked at us back and forward "Family meet" he said while looking at Luke suspiciously.

"Stay here Luke" he gave me a smirk before I shut the door on him. "What?" I said to Elijah.

"Nothing brother nothing..." I rolled my eyes of his suspiciousness.

"Dad should be here early" he said with no face expression.

"Hmm"

Miles is stupid if he thinks am gonna stay lock up, when he completely went downstairs that's when i started my adventure.

The hallway was cold and quiet. I stumbled upon a door that's was further away from the rest curiosity strikes and I turned the knob.

It was open.

It had an office area and a very big space, and very larger than miles room. The painting caught my eyes showing a man..

Oh shit it's miles dad. Another fuck up thing is there's no family photo or individual pictures of his kids.

Talking was heard behind his door and I quickly hid in a closet.. my eyes were peeping through the door space. "I know babe, I have family dinner soon."

This fucker was cheating, he has this amazing wife and still fucking cheated what the hell is his problem.

A rack fell down and his head snapped towards the noise "get out."

With no choice other choice I stepped out and he looked really mad.

I didn't even had a chance to say nothing beacuse he was launching at me, his hands were in on my throat choking me.

"How much did you hear" his voice turned deep.

"A-All of it and when this is— d-done.. am telling the w-whole family" struggling with my words.

"You won't if you dead" holding my throat more tightly.

Oh gosh am dead.

"ELIJA-" he covered my mouth and my eyes started watering.

The door quickly slammed revealing both miles and Elijah watching their dad strangling me.

"WHAT THE FUCK DAD" Elijah as he pushed him off, I hold my throat choking loudly and taking deep breath's.

Miles came in and stopped mid way he looked at my throat then at his dad his face turned to sadness then madness without another thinking he punched him in the face.

Damm.

Elijah pulled him off and miles walked towards me, he grabbed my hands and squeezed it tightly leading me out of the room.

We were walking silently and his hands keep squeezing more tightly "it's nothing really" breaking the silence.

"Nothing?" Laughing under his breath.

He opened the door and pointed straight to his bed, no need to tell me am so tired.

"Let me get some cold water to stop the sting" without another word he went into his bathroom.

Ok he's really mad.

3 mins later he came out with his jaw clenched "just stay still please" he bend down to my level.

The moment the water touched my skin I made an ouch noise. His eyes were full of guilt now I felt bad for leaving.

Without a thought i pulled him in a big hug, then he started crying "why don't we watch some more movie till the time comes?" Nodding to my question.

Turning off the lights and putting the show we were watching, I handed him some snack I had in my bag.

Now we were sitting side by side on the bed, his head were on my shoulder eating some chips.

I like this..

Maybe I am ga-
