THE LOVE OF INNOCENCE AND HATRED

24.TODAY WAS MEANT TO BE THIS WAY

ALEX'S POV

"I LOVE YOU ALEX" SHE CONFESSES 

AND WE BOTH JUST STOOD THERE FROZEN

I PULL OUT OF THE TRANCE AND BEFORE I COULD TELL HER THAT I LOVE HER SHE CONTINUOUS SPEAKING AGAIN

"NO, DON'T EVEN SPEAK ANYTHING BEFORE I TELL YOU TO PLEASE," SHE SAYS WHILE MOTIONINGMEWITH ONE HAND 

"I'M NOT THE DAUGHTER OF MR AND MRS CARTER," SHE SAYS

I UNDERSTOOD NOTHING UNTIL NOW

"I LOVE BOTH OF THEM REALLY MUCH, I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHETHER THERE WILL BE ANYONE IN THIS WORLD WHO GIVE A CHILD SO MUCH LOVE AND TREAT HER AS A PRINCESS DESPITE HER NOT BEING THEIR DAUGHTER," SHE SAYS

"I WAS ORPHANED AS SOON AS I WAS BORN BECAUSE THEY ALREADY HAD 4 DAUGHTERS AND WANTED A SON, THE HOSPITAL IN WHICH I WAS BORN IN WAS NONE OTHER THAN CARTER'S HOSPITAL, AS SOON AS MOM SAW ME AND LEARNT WHAT HAPPENED TO ME SHE JUST TOOK ME IN HER ARMS AND TOLD DAD THAT I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU DO SHE'S MY DAUGHTER FROM NOW ON. IF YOU'RE WONDERING HOW I KNOW IT, IT'S CHELSEA SHE'S BEEN WITH MOM AND DAD SINCE RYAN WAS BORN" SHE SAYS AND WIPES THE TEARS FALLING OFF HER EYES, EVEN THOUGH SHE COULDN'T CONTROL HER TEARS.

I CONSOLE HER BY PLACING MY HAND OVER HERS

"YOU DON'T HAVE TO, "I SAY

"NO, I WANT TO, YOU KNOW WHEN A NEW MEMBER WHO COMES TO THE FAMILY WHICH ISN'T BLOOD RELATED IT FACES A LOT OF SIBLING PROBLEMS OVER THERE BUT I HAD NONE. RYAN JUST TOOK CARE OF ME LIKE I WAS A PRINCESS, HE FOUGHT WITH ME, TAUGHT ME, HELPED ME IN ALL WAY, ALL IN ALL, HE NEVER SAW ME LESS THAN HIS OWN SISTER" SHE SAYS

"NOW TELL ME, I DON'T EXPECT YOU TO RECIPROCATE MY FEELINGS, BUT TELL ME WOULD YOU ACCEPT ME, YOU SEE I'M AN ORPHAN WHO WAS THROWN AWAY AS SOON AS THEY KNEW IT WAS A GIR-"I DIDN'T LET HER COMPLETE BY PLACING MY LIPS ON HERS

"SH, SH, I LOVE YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE, I LOVE YOU, IDIOT, THAT IS ALL I CAN SAY. I JUST FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU AND NO ONE CAN CHANGE IT, BUT YOUR PAST HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU, IT'S TOTALLY THEIR FAULT THAT THEY LOST SUCH A PRECIOUS GEM LIKE YOU"I SAY TO HER

"I LOVE YOU SIA, THAT'S WHAT MATTERS. I JUST WANT YOU TO BE WITH ME THAT'S IT, I LOVE YOU, I DON'T GIVE A FUCK TO YOUR PAST" I SAY

"BUT, ARE YOU SURE, YOU WANT TO BE WITH A GIRL WHOSE PARE-"I CUT HER OFF BY KISSING HER

AS WE PULL AWAY I REST MY FOREHEAD ON HERS AND SAY

"I DON'T WANT TO BE WITH THE GIRL, WHOSE PARENTS ABANDONED HER, "I SAY

I COULD SEE SHOCK WRITTEN ON HER FACE

"I WANT TO BE WITH THAT GIRL WHO MAKES ME FEEL TOTALLY DIFFERENT IN THIS WORLD, I WANT TO BE WITH THAT GIRL WHO MAKES MY HEART FLUTTER, I WANT TO BE WITH YOU SIA, I LOVE YOU AND THAT'S IT, "I SAY, UNKNOWINGLY THERE ARE TEARS POURING OUT OF MY EYES.

I HUG HER TIGHTLY UNTIL HER BREATHING BECOMES NORMAL

"NOW LET'S GET GOING SHALL WE?"I ASK HER

SHE NODS

AFTER A WHILE WE REACH HER HOME

"SIA JUST SO YOU KNOW, YOU'RE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL, STRONGEST GIRL I'VE EVER SEEN, "I SAY TO HER AS SHE GIVES ME 

"WELL, YOU WANNA COME?"SHE ASKS ME, I NOD AS WE ENTER

"HELLO THERE MCADAMS"RYAN SAYS AND I GIVE HIM A NOD

"WELL, HOW WAS YOUR DATE?"HE ASKS OUT OF THE BLUE

ME AND SIA LOOK AT HIM LIKE WE'VE SEEN A GHOST

"WHAT,I MEAN IT WAS TOO EASY TO FIGURE IT OUT"HE SAYS

"YOU HAVE NO PROBLEM?"SIA ASKS

"NOPE,WHEN ARE YOU TELLING MOM AND DAD?"HE ASKS

"SOON,IN THE NEXT DINNER I GUESS"I SAY LOOKING AT SIA AT THE CORNER OF MY EYES.

"I WAS GONNA WATCH A HARRY POTTER MARATHON,GUYS WANNA JOIN?"HE ASKS

WE NOD

"SIA, HOW ABOUT YOU GO INSIDE,I JUST WANT TO HAVE A LITTLE, TINY-MINY CHAT WITH MCADAMS,"RYAN SAYS

SHE LOOKS FROM ME TO RYAN TWICE THEN WHISPERS SOMETHING TO RYAN AS SHE WALKS PAST HIM INTO THE LIVING ROOM.

"YOU HURT MY SISTER AND I WOULD HUNT YOU DOWN," HE SAYS

I NOD AND BOTH OF US MAKE OUR WAY TOWARDS THE LIVING ROOM TO SEE THAT SIA HAS ALREADY WATCHING HARRY POTTER WITHOUT US.

I PLOP DOWN BESIDE SIA AS RYAN SITS ON THE COUCH ADJACENT TO THE ONE WE ARE SITTING

"DID HE SAYS ANYTHING STUPID?"SIA WHISPERS IN MY EAR

"IS THAT WHAT YOU SAID TO HIM WHEN YOU LEFT ME OUT THERE?"I ASK HER

"AND TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION, NOPE,HE WAS JUST BEING YOUR BROTHER"I ANSWER HER

"WELL, THAT MEANS HE DID ASK YOU OR TOLD YOU SOMETHING STUPID,"SHE SAYS AS REST HER HEAD ON MY SHOULDER

I CHUCKLE AND WRAP AN ARM AROUND HER

"AWWW, LOOK AT YOU TO, SO CUTE" RYAN SAYS AND CONTINUES

"I CAN'T BELIEVE MY BABY SISTER IS ALL GROWN UP" AS HE WIPES HIS FAKE TEARS

"SHUT UP RYAN,"SHE SAYS TO HIM AS SHE THROWS THE REMOTE AT HIM

WELL,I GUESS TODAY WAY MEANT TO BE THIS WAY
