Semua Bab My Boyfriend's Possessive Stepbrother: Bab 61 - Bab 70

BRANDONI kept delaying the conversation and that made things worse. Had I told her myself, she would have believed me. I had no fucking idea she saw what happened between me and Marisa at the ball.My mind refused to rest after the blow up conversation with Kim, I spent the whole night on the couch awake.It's now morning and I stand rooted outside the bedroom door, debating whether it's the right time to approach her or not. Making a final decision, I turn and walk away.* * Two Weeks Later* * Everything is almost back to normal, almost, because I feel like Kim is still holding back from me. I don't blame her because my past with Marisa is too complicated, the fact that I almost took my own life because she left me would alert any new lover after she returns.The feeling I felt when Kim came back home and spoke to me without distance and anger is beyond the word relief. Lily's friend poking her nose where she shouldn't is another thing that's making my time bomb tick faster. I w

BRANDON I close the door to my car and walk up the steps to the front door with Kim and my friends following close behind me. I spoke to my mom after I finished packing and she she wouldn't leave Marisa's side. Marisa tends to act impulsively when she's upset, I wouldn't put it past her to do something crazy after losing her eyes like that. We enter the living room and I spot her curled up in my mother's side on the couch while she runs her hand soothingly over her hair. "Rissa," my mom says when she sees me walking to them and Marisa's head snaps up. When our eyes meet, she jumps from the couch and runs to me, throwing herself in my arms and wrapping her hands around my neck. In that moment, I don't know what to do, my hands remain at my side. I look at my mom and she gives a small nod. My hands move and wrap around Marisa's back, at that movement, she squeezes me tighter. "I'm sorry for your loss." A voice speaks softly beside me, Marisa pushes back and looks at Kim w

KIMBERLY Car after car passes, making it's way to the graveyard where Laura is being put to rest. "Thank God it's finally over." Sam says. "Yeah, we can go back to LA and continue where we left off from." After finishing our coffees, I try Brandon's number again but it's still going straight to voicemail. Deciding I've had enough, I turn off my phone and head over to Nao's house with her and Sam. After helping her pick a dress to wear to her lunch date with Nate, we all head out. Sam stops walking, focusing on her phone with parted lips. "What?" Nao asks. Both of us walk back to her when she continues scrolling in silence. "Sam, what's wrong?" "Look," she hands the phone to me and Nao scoots closer. The headline reads : SUICIDAL FAMOUS LAWYER AND JOURNALIST FINALLY PUT TO REST. I skip the rest and go to the three pictures below, one is of the tombstone with Marisa's mom's full names, the other is of the people who were present, I scroll down to another post and it's the on

KIMBERLYI'm extremely annoyed, no, annoyed is an understatement, I'm utterly pissed and livid, I'm angry, I'm a lot of things right now. I glare at Michael who is seated opposite me with his elbows resting on his knees and a bottle of beer dangling between his fingers. The moron looks unbothered by my glare, in fact, when i glare harder and my eyes turn to slits, he grins at me."Michael!" I say with more annoyance and frustration but his grin widens some more."What?" He arches a brow.I sigh,"Are you just going to sit there and follow orders from Brandon instead of having fun?"He takes a sip and keeps staring at me as if I didn't even say a single word. My attempt at poking him fails miserably but I don't give up.Scooting closer to the edge of the sofa, I try to bargain with him."Look," he turns his head away from me, pretending to be avoiding me but I continue. "If you just let me do whatever the hell I want, I might get you a date with April."His eyes snap to mine.Yes!"I

BRANDON"I asked you to keep an eye on her, why the hell did you let her leave?" I whisper to Michael."Now I'm the one to blame for what happened to her? Dude, I didn't expect that to happen either."I let out a deep sigh and run my hand over my face. When I saw how she looked last night, my heart almost leaped out of my chest. She was all bruised and swollen I almost didn't recognize her."And that comes to my question, where the hell were you?"My eyes snap to Michael's and my heart swells in my chest when I think about where I was. This fucking guilt I will carry for the rest of my life. I left her, I wasn't there to save her and that fact eats me the fuck up. Whoever saved her protected her, I don't even want to imagine what would have happened to her if that person didn't appear on the scene on time. I can't even thank him because she doesn't know who he is, she didn't see his face."I had to take care of something.""Was it that important that you had to leave her behind witho
