KONGOS - Come With Me Now

"I hate you Connor Franta !" She screamed.

Beth's POV

I landed in California after the long flight. I called my mom to come and pick me up from LAX

She asked where I had gone and why I was alone. I didn't say anything, I just told her to come pick me up and I would explain then. But in all honesty I wasn't ready to have my mom brag and say how she told me so. But maybe it would be nice to have some of her advice.

"Bethany !" I heard my name and looked over at her in her white car. I strolled over to her and threw my bag in the back. I buckled myself in the passenger seat and stared out the window.

"So do you want to tell my where you've been" she said as we got on the freeway. I sighed and still looked out the window.

"I was in Minnesota visiting Connor's parents" I admitted.

"Minnesota ? If you went with him where is he?" She asked knowing the answer already.

"We got into a fight and a bunch of other things happened so I left" I explained and closed my eyes hard so I won't get any emotions.

I felt awful for leaving him. He would feel even more awful knowing he chased me away. The worst that could happen now is that he goes drinking again and no one is there to control him. But the fact that I'm so fed up and mad over weighs feeling guilty. I thought our fight was just another mistaken one where we were both just so mad. I go and look for him thinking he just went to a friends to cool off. Because that's what I did. Instead I just stayed home.

But when I do find him there is a big party. I was about to vomit when I saw how I walked in on the perfect time. Some girl was acting like some exotic dancer all over Connor. I ran out and cried. I went back and got all my thing packed up and left. I just don't know how he can keep repeating everything.

"So you just left? I warned you. That boy is no good! But you never listen to me anymore. " she complained. I hid my face in my hands and brought it up again.

"Mom you don't understand! I love him. " I snapped. She started laughing like a maniac and I rolled my eyes.

"Oh my little naïve daughter. You do not know the first thing about love. " she said laughing at me. I crossed my arms and looked at her with a scowl.

"How are you so sure? Why don't you ever believe me?! Mom I'm not some little girl anymore " I said back to her.

"I do believe you. Except when it comes to relationships. When you get much older you will understand" she stated. I looked away and didn't say anything back.

Maybe she was right. If she is then I don't know what to call what I feel for Connor. Maybe it's because he's the first guy to ever make me feel like this. The way he kisses me and is so delicate with me. The way he speaks to me and touches me. I don't understand how a single human being could do those things.

The rest if the drive was silent until we finally reached our home. It's been a while since I was here again. I looked at our house that looked lonely. I bet anyone was hardly here since my mom is always at work.

"Bethany I am going to a business trip on business trip on Sunday and won't be back till Wednesday. It's a medical thing I'm sorry but stay here until you're ready to go back" she said. She surprised me at how polite she was at me staying here. I already knew she felt bad for me and what had happened. I forgot how my mother could be nice.

"Thanks " I said to her. I grabbed my bag and went upstairs to my old room. I left my bag on the floor not having energy to unpack. Instead I went inside my work room and went through some old pictures.
