PICTURE OF BLAKE ON THE SIDE =)

Blake is played by a random that I found on the internet, so I'm not to sure on what his real name is :)

‘Are you fucking kidding me?’ I huffed, completely fed up with Blake.

‘No I’m not fucking kidding you,’ Blake harshly responded, quoting and spitting out the words that I had just used mere seconds ago. ‘I’m not letting you to go on some holiday with a boy I haven’t met. What kind of brother would I be?’ he questioned.

‘Um, a normal brother,’ I said, emphasising the word normal. ‘You’re just to over protective, why I have no clue.’ I muttered the last part which only caused Blake to glare at me.

‘See? Right there is one reason. You are childish and there’s no telling what you will get up to.’ Blake argued.

‘His my mate!’ I yelled. Well, that’s no lie. Just because Blake and I don’t have the same definition of that one particular word doesn’t mean that I’m lying, right?

‘Your mate? Since when do you start speaking like a stereo typical Australian?’ Blake hissed, narrowing his eyes at me. My cheeks started heating up the slightest bit and I mentally scolded myself for letting my ‘not 100% truth’ start to surface.

‘What does it matter what word I use? Mate, friend. It’s the same thing.’ I huffed, crossing my arms and shooting daggers at Blake.

‘Well that changes everything,’ Blake sarcastically responded, throwing his hand in the air.

My eyes involuntarily narrowed at him.

‘No.’ he stated.

‘Yes.’

‘No.’

‘Yes.’

‘No.’

‘Yes.’

‘N-‘I quickly interrupted him before he could finish.

‘Yes, and nothing you say will change what happens. You won’t even be in the god damn state when I leave so it’s not as if you can stop me.’ I challenged him.

‘But Tanner can.’ He stated, challenging my challenge.

‘Just because you’re barely ever around to be a pain in the ass all the time doesn’t mean that you can send Tanner to be one for you!’ I practically screamed, silencing the both of us. As soon as the words left my mouth, I instantly regretted it.

Blake’s eyes softened and turned into the look of guilt, and that just made me feel even worse.

‘Blake, I’m so sor-’ I started apologising but he hushed me.

‘Lani, it’s okay. It’s my fault. Your right, I’m never around. And if I was we wouldn’t be having this argument because I’d know the kid and I’d see that you don’t date assholes.’ The look in his eyes as they bored into mine told me that there was no room for argument, and that I shouldn’t talk back to him.

‘I said he was my friend,’ I grumbled under my breath, wanting to do nothing but tell him how sorry I am. A small chuckle escaped his lips and a small smile graced his face and he walked closer to me and flung an arm around my shoulder.

‘And now I have to say yes, because in my rant I just said that you don’t date- I mean, become friends with assholes,’ he chuckled once more and ruffled my hair as a sign of affection. ‘I trust you Lani, just not the other guys.’
