I will lie, and I will keep lying
I lie, to them. I lie to Blake, I lie to Hunter, I lie to Dustin, I lie to Shane and I lie to Cam. I know it's wrong to lie to each one of them. They are my best friends, and fellow rangers. But I have my reasons….
Our game of Truth Or Dare a week ago didn't turned out like I thought, or better say hoped.
Especially between the Bradley's. Because of those kisses Blake lives in their apartment and Hunter sleeps at Dustin's. My thoughts are interrupted by Shane.
"Dude, what's wrong you're acting weird ?", Shane asks me. I sigh turning my attention from the magazine to him. "Nothing is wrong Shane."
He didn't looked soothed with my answer, but I can't blame him; I'm a bad liar.
"You're lying to me aren't you ? Tor, is everything all right ?"
I looked to him feeling tears burning in my eyes, but I hold them back plastering a smile on my face.
He was right. Since I kissed Blake in the forest, I'm confused. He brought me home in my own van that night. I couldn't stop crying and I have still no idea why. He comforted me, told me it was his fault; that he overreacted about my kiss with his brother. But his eyes spoke different. They told me the total opposite. The sparkle in his brown eyes was gone.
Just like the sparkle in his brother's eyes, when we met him at my van. He looked to me in the arms of his brother sobbing, his relieved smile of seeing us unharmed, disappearing almost immediately, just like the spark in those beautiful blue eyes.
Blake placed me on the backseat of the van, closing the door. He knew what was going to happen and tried to protect me that way, but I knew it wouldn't change a thing. I sat right up looking to them through the window.
"What happened ?", Hunter demanded.
"She was screaming our names in the middle of the forest, when I found her. She kissed me, she started crying. That's it!", Blake answered. His normally smooth and sweet voice was replaced by one filled with venom.
"Bro, you can't lie and you know it! What happened between the finding and kissing ?", Hunter almost yelled.
"None of your business and don't call me bro. Brothers don't steel each other's girl !", the little brother screamed pushing his bro against the side of the van.
"What are you talking about ?!", he asked suddenly surprised.
"Don't deny it Hunter ! You like her too. You don't show it, but I can see it. The little smiles that no one expect she gets, the congratulations on her birthday, the small talk, the hugs, protecting her in every fight, feeling guilty that we attacked her more than ones. Do I need to continue ?", Blake said with a laugh, but a mockingly one.
"You don't know what you're talking about!", Hunter replied sighing, before turning around. "Do you bring her home ? I'm gonna run a while."
"Are you gonna run away again ? Like you did with Leanne ?", Blake cried out.
Hunter stopped in his track turning to his little brother, who continued.
"It's what you are doing eh ? Leaving the girl you love all over again. Like with her, when she went to the games. Hunter, we both know that Lothor's goons won't come forever, and when they are gone. You'll leave, I'll leave. But the difference between us is that I keep in touch and you will never come back again. Hunter, I know this sounds hard, but it is the truth."
The older brother looked to me through the window, before looking to his little brother. "Don't be surprised if it turns out differently Blake.", Hunter simply respond, before ninja streaking away, God knows where.
I looked to Blake as he sighs, and a tear rolls over his cheek.
"Tori, hello Tori ?", a voice sounded, making me come back to earth.
"Huh what ?", I managed to say as I looked to Shane's worried expression.
"I said: Is everything alright ?"
Does it looks like I'm all right ? I'm mad on myself. Everything happened because I agreed to play that stupid game. Otherwise it didn't happened. It's thanks to me, that the Bradley's can't be in the same room without killing each other. I'm the cause of that. Me Victoria Hanson, the blue wind ranger. But instead of telling my friends what's really wrong. I lie.
"Of course, Shane. I'm just thinking about that project for English.", I say.
"Yeah it's hard isn't it ?", Shane agrees dropping the subject. I nod with a simple smile.
This is what I'm doing with each of them. Only sensei knows the truth. I told him honestly and he promised to keep it a secret.
Great another secret. I have so much secrets in my life right now. The ranger secret, the academy secret, and the most important one, my crushes. That's right crushes. I like them both in that way. Hunter and Blake, I do since I met them. I felt for Blake since the start, but when Hunter helped me so much on my birthday and supported me, I felt something that even Blake didn't gave me. I felt happiness. I felt happy while battling those Kelzacks, while chasing him on the beach, playing with Ducky in the water. On my birthday were he and Dustin the only one who understood me. Both in different ways. Hunter told me that he don't know his or Blake's birthday, cause his real parents didn't tell the adoption center his day of birth. They just leaved him there. The same for Blake.
And Dustin, well Dustin just understands me by being Dustin. He is my best friend and will be it forever. We are connected in some way, and that gives me a reason to smile each time I see him, even when we were almost killed.
Snapping back out of my thoughts I see that Shane's gone and that I'm alone in the back of Storm Chargers. I sigh turning back to my magazine.
The two brothers will work it out eventually. They talk back to each other so that's something not ? Anyway I'm not going to interfere anymore till this thing cooled down. Expect the Bradley's, sensei and I, nobody knows about that night. We promised we would keep it that way. But I have more to hide than them. No one thinks this about me; Tori the oh so bad liar, but I do it each time and till I know the truth:
"I will lie, and I will keep lying."
The End
