Bailey's povI blinked. My heart dropped. My stomach twisted. I felt nauseas. This was not how I planned to have Mira know about me and her brother. This was not how I dreamed things would go. A twist of fear curled in my belly, making the nauseating feeling worsen. " I-I swallowed, nervously looking over at Kaleb who shot me a confused look, silently asking me what's going on. I cannot respond to him, neither do I know how to. " Mira- I don't finish my words, Mirabella cut through them like a sharp sword slashing through skin, wounding me deeper than I thought was possible. " Save your excuses, I saw you two. I guess Juliet was right about you used me to get to my brother." My throat burned and my eyes too. I blinked, trying to keep my tears at bay, ashamed to even cry in front of a worried Kaleb. " Mira," my lower lip wobbled as I tore my eyes away from Kaleb's and look at my house. In the distance, just standing in the middle of the open window to my room stood Mira. Her

Bailey's povHis words made my pulse race and the strong emotions he poured into them made me melt, knowing he meant every single word. I stared at Kaleb in awe, my heart knowing that it belonged to him and as his eyes meet mine, the emotions he poured in his words showed in the depths of his soul. " I finally went after what I want Mira," He whispered, his eyes shinning with so much strong emotions even I felt them through me. Returning his gaze to his sister, he uttered softly. " And I'm sorry, but I won't let her go." Mira breathed in sharply, takes a step back, shakes her head and whips around. Her eyes land on me, standing there and her eyes are dead. It makes my chest hurt and I tried to pull air into my lungs to help me breath. She looks at me in betrayal, anger and pain. With a shake to her head, she uttered over her shoulder. " Just take me home, I don't want to be here any longer." She rips her eyes off me and storms to Kaleb's car. Every step she takes, it feels like t

Kaleb's povI took a peek at my sister, my fingers around the steering wheel tightening. " Are you going to continue to give me the silent treatment the entire way home?" She does not respond, turning away from me and crossing her arms. She was acting childish. I let out a frustrated puff of air. " This is childish Mirabella, even for you." There's a long awkward pause after my words and I had thought she wouldn't have responded. But I am wrong. " Childish is you and Bailey keeping the truth from me." Her tone was bitter and lacked any emotion. She was way pass angry, she was seething silently. " We were trying to find a way to tell you about us Mira, but we were afraid of how you'd react. Like now." I pointed out in frustration. I loved my sister, and I knew that she had grown to be annoyed at me for my actions in the past for hurting girls and unknowingly having them come to her. I guess she didn't trust that I could be good to Bailey. " My reaction is completely justified."

Bailey's povThe days are going by quickly and it feels like the longer we go without speaking, Mira and I were losing whatever small piece of thread that kept our friendship. It had gone from a few glances, me mostly trying to grab her attention to now, nothing. As I settle on the chair and place my bag on the desk, I sighed. I loved Kaleb and I am growing more happier with him every day. But I also know my heart misses Mira too. " I'm so screwed." Kristina moaned, plopping on the chair beside mine. At any moment now Mira will show up. If she sees Kristina beside me, she'd sit at front, obviously trying to avoid sitting anywhere in close proximity to me. I brought my gaze to Kristina, my brows drawing as I regarded her words. " Screwed? What did you do?" Kristina winced, looking embarrassed. " I may or may not have forgotten to do the homework. I was up talking with you and Lucy last night and kind of fell asleep right after. I only remembered we had homework.....like at the this

Bailey's povHearing my words, Mira spins around, her eyes narrowing. " Did you just call me a hypocrite?" I nod, crossing my arms as I lift my chin up in defiance. " Yes. And I meant it. You are and you know that Mirabella. You know I am right." Mira gasped, looking outraged and stormed towards me, her eyes narrowing into slits of rage. I am not fazed by her reaction and stand still, waiting for what she would no doubt spit at me. " And how am I a hypocrite Bailey!? Prey tell, since you know so much about being a hypocrite." " You're angry at me for keeping my relationship with Kaleb away from you, yet, Mira you did the same thing. You're not telling the full truth here. Especially to Kaleb. You're keeping something from him too. " Mira snorted, looking around in disbelief before laughing in fake amusement. " Keeping something from Kaleb? What is that? Because last I checked I'm not you! I don't keep secrets!" she snapped at the end, breathing loudly. Still, even with all her an
