bed, and the place looked spotless. She smiled at me and waved “hi! How are you?” she shouted over the vacuum. I leaned against the door frame “good, sorry about the whole Jake thing, he’s grounded so there was really no reason for you to come” I shouted apologetically. She turned off the vacuum and looked up at me “oh well, at least his room is clean” she shrugged. I chuckled “yeah, very true” I said. She put the vacuum back where it goes, “I guess you’ve met my mom and dad” I said as we walked down stairs. She nodded “yes I have” she said. She walked to the door “okay, I have an appointment at the hairstylist, I’m going to a friends wedding” said with an excited smile. I felt guilty “I’m so sorry to keep you from that, I’ll talk to Jake” I said, putting emphasis on ‘Jake’. she smiled and nodded “its quite alright, I’ve still got three hours before the wedding” she said. I smiled and nodded “bye” she said. I waved and closed the door as she walked away. I walked back into the living room, giving Jake a threatening glare “idiot” I muttered. I sat down in the chair across from Kyle, crossing my arms over my chest. “so, Kaila, apparently mom and dad are staying till Thursday, their coming back for thanksgiving weekend though” Jared said, looking at me cautiously. I nodded “cool” I said simply. He stared a me puzzled for a second, then turned back to mom and dad “yes, we’ll be here for the holidays, Easter, maybe even valentines day” mom said. Jake Hail and Jared all widened their eyes at mom and dad “how about you come a few days after? You know, give yourselves some time alone?” Jared suggested desperately. Mom shook her head, smiling knowingly at Jared “nope, were coming the week of Valentines day” she said. I smirked at Jared, then something dawned on me, I looked at Kyle, then at mom, “everyone is going to be out on dates and things mom, can’t we like… move it to the next week or something?” I asked. She shook her head at me “no, were coming the week of” she said stubbornly. Yep, me and mom are just alike. I sighed and sat back, and the reason I gave up with her is because of that, when we want something, we wont back down. So I sat back and let her win this argument. Jared gave me an incredulous look “that’s it? Your not going to argue?” he asked. I nodded “one thing I have learned Jared, is me and mom are alike, our decisions will not be disputed, and if they are, then we’ll just be stubborn and argue right back” I said. Jared sighed and sat back in his seat, pinching the bridge of his nose between his thumb and forefinger. “good God Jared, its not that bad!” I exclaimed, adding a bit of laugher. He glared at me, giving me the shut-up-or-else look. I rolled my eyes at him “Kaila, can you please talk some sense into your brothers?” mom said, getting up from the couch. I looked at her in confusion “where are you going?” I asked. She smiled “I am meeting an old friend” she said. I nodded, then smiled sweetly at my brothers “of course I’ll talk some sense into them mom” I said sweetly, a threatening undertone in my voice. Hail looked scared, Jake looked overly confident, and Jared looked a little scared, but tried to hide it. I smirked “now Kaila, don’t be mean” she said sternly. I smiled innocently at mom “don’t worry mom, I’ll be a perfect angel” I said innocently. She studied me for a second “right” she said slowly.  Chapter Eight.

 

chapter eight.

While Mom and Dad were gone, me and Kyle sat secretly in my room and talked about what we were going to do Valentines day, it was only a few weeks away. "now, i think we should go out to eat, maybe watch a movie, or, we could do a drive-in theater" Kyle suggested, raising an eyebrow. I smiled at the thought "yes, a drive-in theater would be nice, we could make our own popcorn at home, wouldn't that be funny? our popcorn would be cold and greasy by the time we got there" I laughed. Kyle had gone silent, and i hadn't realized he was staring intently at me. "what?" I asked softly. "I need to tell you something" he was hesitant, nervous."tell me what?" I was now guarded. "now, don't get mad at me""mad at you for what?" he put his hands on both sides of my face, calming me instantly. "I need to tell you something, that I have wanted to tell you, but I thought you would get mad at me, and you probably will. I just want you to know, that I love you, and I always will" he said, truth ringing in every word. I nodded "I love you too, you know I do" I said, kissing his lips once. he smiled softly, but then that smile dropped, being replaced by a hesitant frown "I...well I... you know Lacy, the girl we saw at the place i took you?" he asked me. i nodded "yes, your ex girlfriend" I amended. he nodded and sighed "well, i knew she would be there, and at first, I wanted to make her Jealous, her seeing you with me-""you used me?" I asked incredulously. He winced "sort of, but as i got to know you, i fell in love with you. you have to understand, i was desperate, i wanted her back, but the night i took you out to dinner, i was in love with you, and I didn't want her anymore" he said, pleading. I shook my head slowly "I was never anything to you? You never loved me?" I whispered. He put his hands on both sides of my face, forcing me to look at him, "I fell in love with you, isn't that enough?" he asked. I ripped his hands off my face and got up from the bed, "so what you said to me before, about how you loved me since the day you saw me, you lied?" I asked him. He opened his mouth to say something, but closed it again, looking away out the window and rubbing his neck. I nodded "it was all a lie" i told mostly myself. He shook his head vigorously "no, no! it wasn't all a lie. I love you, please believe me!" he pleaded. A single tear ran down my cheek, "how can i trust that you still love me?" i asked him. he grabbed me in his arms and kissed me hard, and I couldn't help it, I kissed him back, relaxing into his strong embrace. He pulled back after a few minutes "I love you, and no one else" he said huskily. I stared into his beautiful blue eyes, seeing the pure truth in them, i nodded, hugging him tightly. He kissed me again, "i'm so sorry, Love" he said softly after we broke apart. Another tear ran down my cheek, and he wiped it away "I truly am" he promised. I kissed him again "no, I'm sorry, I should have trusted you" I said. I kissed him again and again "I. Love. You" I said between kisses. i felt him smile "I love you too" he said.there was a soft knock on the door and it opened shortly after, mom coming in "hi sweetie, Kyle, I just wanted to tell you that dinner is served, were having pizza, and, as I recall, your favorite, pepperoni" she said. I pumped my fist "yes!" I exclaimed. I jumped up, dragging Kyle with me, I was ready to forget this whole fight and get on with life. I dragged Kyle downstairs and stopped short when I saw who was at the table, Jana Hensworth, and her son, Ben, he is my enemy, and my old boyfriend. I glanced at mom, she shrugged and went to get pizza. I drug Kyle to the pizza, and heard him chuckle beside me. "mm, i love pizza" I said. He laughed "i'm a little Jealous of the pizza" he joked. I laughed and playfully slapped his arm "don't worry, I love you more than pizza" i assured. he snorted as i grabbed a plate and grabbed two slices of pepperoni pizza. he grabbed himself a plate and then i drug him over and sat down at the table, sitting him down beside me. I looked up to meet the gaze of Hail, he was looking between me and Kyle, frowning. I frowned in confusion at him before digging into my pizza. I groaned at how good this simple triangle with cheese marinara and pepperoni could be. "please don't do that" Kyle whispered huskily. I looked at him in confusion "why not?" I asked. I looked into his eyes, and i realized why, lust was the dominant expression in his eyes. but his face was carefully controlled. I smirked, and he narrowed his eyes at me "please don't do it again" he pleaded. I just kept smirking, i took another bite of my pizza and groaned quietly, so only he could hear. he shifted uncomfortably in his chair and cleared his throat quietly. He glared at me and gave me a look that said to 'stop or else' and i gave him a challenging look. he raised an eyebrow and grabbed my hand "excuse us for a second" he said. they stared at us in confusion as he drug me up the stairs, i had a challenging smile on my face. he led me upstairs and into my room. he then pushed me up against my door and kissed me hungrily, pressing his whole body up against me. every inch of him was pressed against me, he kissed me like he'd never kissed me before. I laughed slightly under his lips and pulled away, looking into his eyes. "This is what you wanted me to stop for?" I asked incredulously. He nodded "well, it was kind of uncomfortable with your whole family around, and you would have been really embarrassed if i had pounced on you" he said. I kissed him passionately and then pushed him out the door again, refusing to stay in that room any longer. I pushed him down the stairs, and half jogged back to my seat.

Ben was frowning in confusion "so Kaila, you are the "queen" of the school again i hear" Ben said to me, raising an eyebrow. I sat back in my seat, raising an eyebrow back at him "no, I prefer to call it...I'm no longer the butt of the joke" I said, smirking.

He rolled his eyes "so that means you’re going to start being a stubborn Bitch again?" he asked. I stared at him in disbelief, and felt Kyle stiffen beside me. "Okay, you people are so stupid; do I look like a female dog? I have to tell you, if it looks like a dog and barks like a dog then it must be a dog, do I look
