FORTY-TWO

MACY

I've been out of the house for at least 2 hours now but I'll admit I still feel like absolute shit. The wedding is in just two days now. I need to see them together again and I don't think I can.

My mom is right, he isn't good for me because in the end we will keep hurting each other. The pain won't be worth it when it comes to him. We both come with a lot of package and that's something we can't admit to each other.

"Oh god why am I crying again?" I wipe under my eyes cleaning all the wet tears. I inhale needing to calm down and stop the tears from streaming down my cheek.

I hear steps and quickly I wipe my face making it like I just wasn't crying. "Macy?" they question and I turn my head around to look at them.

It was Chris. "Oh hi," I smile at him and he takes a seat next to me on the bench. "Won't Danielle get mad at you?" I chuckle and he laughs too

"I broke up with her," he scratches the back of his neck awkwardly and I look at him again.

"Why?" I ask

"I heard what she was saying to you, so I dumped her. I don't think it's fair she's doing that. It's not our business on why you moved over here and what happened with him," he shrugs and I thank him "But I'm sorry for being a dick to you," he shoots me a half smile

"Forgiven,"

He walks with me back home and he was actually making me laugh but the conversation got all serious after. "Are you okay? I know you probably get tired of people asking you but I'm here if you want to talk," he stops midway of us walking

I think first before I even say anything. "I've been better," was all I said. Even though he knew nothing about me and how I didn't know anything about him. I wanted to spill my guts to him for some apparent reason.

"You know Danielle is right, it was stupid of me to even be with him. He is my step-brother even though we aren't related by blood it's still wrong," I let out "But again I think deep down I was trying to piss off my mom of how we kept moving around and kept getting married. I was always being dragged along for it. But then it grew more and more each day. I just got so tempted all the time. I lost control," I release

Before he says anything I say,"Sorry if I'm talking too much,"

He shakes his head at me and grins,"It's okay but think about it. Was it really worth trying to piss off your mom? Because look where it got you and how broken you are now,"

I shake my head at the last part. But he kept nodding. "Macy, you were just crying and at school you had a break down," he sighs "You know it wasn't even worth all the trouble and sneaking around. He probably does too,"

"Maybe, it was because I felt safe with him. I didn't have to be scared anymore. Because he was there for me," we keep walking

"Scared of what?" he said low.

"Scared of my uncle. I didn't want to remember the times he sneaked into my room just to "play with me"," I quoted "I lived with it, I never told anyone," my voice croaked

We were already in front of my house but he pulls me in for a hug. We stay in each other's arms for a good minute or two.

But suddenly someone coughs and that's when we pull from each other's arms feeling embarrassed. "Uh hey?" Dustin says very awkwardly. I smile at them.

"I'll see you later?" he asked and so I nod at him. He walks away and I go into the house with Malia and Dustin on my side.

The room was dead silent and it felt so weird. "So what was that?" they both look at me waiting for an answer.

Macy- wanna be my date to my moms wedding?

"He's just a friend," I shrug looking at my phone. But Malia scoffed.

She rolls her eyes at me and says,"Do you remember what he said to me last time?" she brings it up

I put my phone away,"Yes and he's sorry but enough about him. I need to talk to you guys about what happened at the party,"

—
"Ethan is my step-brother and one day I was high. The first day I met him, I flashed him and shit. I didn't think much of it until we kissed. Just one kiss was what started it all for me." I let out a breathe

Looking down on the floor feeling ashamed but they kept listening,"It went from a kiss to sex- then I tried to stop it. But I felt like I needed him. Then Dylan died and I just couldn't help it. I was so tempted and I felt so alone. He made me feel safe. It wasn't just the sex but the bond we had that no one knew. The sneaking around and all the tension."

"Then Derek knew about it but he didn't say anything. But things got complicated since Derek wanted to be with me. I wanted to be with Ethan. Then one day after Ethan and I being alone in the house I got sad because I missed Dylan. I started to cry and he helped me. We kissed and that's when my mom walked in," I finished

They were both just looking at me shocked. If I was them I wouldn't know what to say either. "I don't know what to say," they both say at the same time "But we are here for you just please don't shut us out anymore. We don't like being left in the dark,"

Chris- sure when is it?

Macy- in two days

"My mom is getting married and you're invited it's going to be Chris and the three of us," but that didn't seem to satisfy Malia. She rolls her eyes at his name. I don't bother to say anything.
