My Step Brother

From Sparks To Barks (part2)

My eyes widened, surprised at what Justin just said to me. "Oh reallyyyyyyyyyyy?"

He kept his eyes on the road with out saying one word.

"Remember this Justin, you left me, I didn't leave you. This conversation ends right here, there's absolutely nothing else to talk about!" My eyes watered as I looked out the window. I don't even want to look at him right now. & I'm not gonna cry. There's no point in crying about bullshit anymore.

Justin said what he wanted and I'm gonna give him exactly what he wants. I glance over at him a couple of times & I can see the anger in his eyes. I never knew he was like this. I mean I knew he had a temper but I didn't know he could be so jealous. At this point I don't know if to be pissed or to be turned on. Well, I'm both, but overall pissed & I feel like punching him in the fucking face.

We spent the rest of the ride home completely silent, with the tension so thick you can cut it with a knife.

As he pulls over in our front yard he doesn't even bother to turn off the car, or take out the key, or turn off the heater, nothing he just storms out. I roll my eyes & I huff & I puff as I do all that extra shit from the passenger seat. I storm right out of the car with intentions of going straight to my room completely forgetting about an excuse to tell my parents.

As I open the house door I can hear dad asking mom "what's wrong with him?" I sigh before thinking of a dumb lie.

"Weren't you guys going to the movies with a bunch of friends?" Dad asked all confused with his hands in his pocket.

"Yeah but you know your son & his temper!" I said as I walked over to the fridge to grab a bottle of water.

"Did you guys argue or something?" Asked my mother.

"Um, No we didn't argue, he argued with this random guy!" I said in a low voice looking down at my wet rain boots.

"About what?" They both asked at the same time with a worried look on their faces. 

"It was nothing big or serious, i'm just not in the mood & all I wanna do is lay down right now!" I said as I walked away.

As I'm walking towards the stairs I can feel my parents eyes burning through my skin. Why did this argument have to happen? Why did he have to storm in the house like this in front of mom & dad? Why the hell did Sebastian even text me? These are the questions that will be keeping me up all night.

I toss my phone on the bed wishing I didn't even have one. If I didn't  have a phone Sebastian wouldn't even exist in my life anymore. If Sebastian didn't exist Justin & I would've never argued.

Wait scratch that if Justin & I we're normal step brother & step sister we would have arguments about normal things. Normal things like "You took the last bit of cereal, fuck you." Or something like that, I don't know. But we wouldn't be arguing about my ex boyfriend texting me about a kiss.

I turn off my room light, undress my self, throw on a plain white v-neck & sit on my comfortable window seat. I have a huge knot on my throat, I don't wanna cry because I'm sad. I wanna cry because I'm mad. I'm mad because in such a short period of time I shared moments with him that I've never shared with anyone else in my whole entire life. But fuck that I won't cry, I'll be strong.

Well at least I'll try.

THE NEXT DAY;

I'm on my way to fourth period, I stop by my locker to pick up my English notebook & drop off the math ones.

As I'm putting my things away I can feel my best friend Lilly staring hard at something across from us.

"What's keeping you so interested?" I asked looking for 10 dollars that I think I misplaced somewhere in here.
