Chapter 10.
"MOM! You are pathetic! Pretend love isn't the same as the real thing." I screamed throwing a dirty look at her. We were standing in Blake's room at the hospital and things were quickly heating up.
"How would you know what love is? You have never loved or been loved in your whole entire life!" Mom spat back.
"Guys calm down!" Jesse and Blake spoke at the same time causing Mike to laugh a little. Poor Mike having to see this little family fight.
"Whatever Mom. The only thing you've ever loved in your life is yourself." I shook my head, disgusted by what she was saying.
"Yet it is still more than what you've loved." Dad scoffed.
"How would you know? You invented the term absentee parent" I seethed with anger and fought the urge to storm out of the room.
"We all know you're a slut Nikita. No need to hide it." Mom said it as if people in China knew. Where did she get off calling me a slut?
"Excuse me?" I exclaimed.
"We know all about how you played your little games with those boys in New York." Dad looked at me as if I was a piece of gum he had stepped on.
"All for the dick. We thought we had raised you better!" Mom added.
"Raised? For fucks sake the only parental figure in my life has been Blake and now he's fucking hospitalized."
"We know about the teachers too. Was there anyone in the Upper East side that you didn't fuck?" Mom laughed.
"Now that's not fair!" Blake exclaimed.
"She didn't fuck us or the nerds!" Jesse laughed. If Mom and Dad hadn't been here I probably would have laughed at that, but my parents boiled my blood.
"You're a dirty little slut Nikita." Dad spat.
"Yeah like I haven't heard that before. Like either of you are better." I laughed. I knew secrets about my parents that not even my brothers knew.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Dad asked quietly, both my parents growing more and more nervous the longer I took to reply.
"Really want me to spell it out? Maybe I should. I think Jesse and Blake have the right to know." I felt in control of the situation and enjoyed making my parents stress like this.
"Nikita what are you getting at?" Jesse asked jumping to my side. I kept my eyes locked on Dad's and a smirk crossed my face.
"Mom? Dad?" Jesse asked looking between them.
"They've both been cheating on each other since you were five." I spoke slowly and clearly and I couldn't help but smile as the colour drained out of my parents faces.
"Is this true?" Blake asked, voice close to a whisper.
"Get out." Mom's voice quivered, her voice barely louder than a whisper. I didn't move a muscle.
"GET OUT!" Mom yelled before throwing a vase at me that held some flowers. I ducked just in time before letting out an evil laugh.
"You're pathetic Mom. Both of you are." I shook my head once more then turned and nearly ran out the door all the way to the car park. I placed my hand on the handle, but unfortunately it was locked. For some strange reason this got me very angry and I kicked the car before crumbling to a mess on the ground.
Unknown:
Well done you are finally learning to listen to me! Now you just have to tell them everything - A
I felt stupid for listening to A and I could feel my whole body shake and I felt like I couldn't breathe.
"Hay Niki, are you okay?" Noël Kahn gently asked taking a seat next to me. I just took one look at him before placing my head back in my hands and continuing to let the tears flow.
"What do you care?" I finally replied.
"Don't be silly! Of course I care about you Niki." Noël placed a comforting arm around me, keeping that genuine look in his eye.
"Please just stop it," I shook his arm off, "I know you hate me, everyone does. I mean I thought I at least had the ability to love my brothers, do what is best for them, turns out I can't even do that right. I ruined it for good this time!" By the time I had finished speaking Noël had his arms back around me, hugging me tighter, trying to calm my shaking body.
"Don't speak like that! You're worth more than that, there are so many people around you that care for you like crazy. So many people you just met, Spencer, Aria, me. And I know for a fact that no matter what you say or do, you're brothers are behind you one hundred percent. I have never seen anyone love someone as much as they love you." Noël tried to comfort me, but of course he didn't get that what I had done crossed the line.
"You don't understand! This time I said something that turned their whole world around. Something they are bound to get really angry about, and the sad thing is I didn't even tell them half of it." I cried letting my body stop shaking. Letting the last tears flow and the small whimper stop.
"Nikita. I want you to listen to me. You and you're brothers are going to get through this and you will come out the other end stronger than ever. You just have to do what you think is right and the rest will work itself out." Noël shrugged kissing my forehead.
"I think I forgot what was right a long time ago."
"Don't say things like that." Noël angrily sighed looking away.
"Like what?" I flinched at the loss of Noel's touch.
"That put you down." Noel replied after a minute. He had regained the distance between us, and had gotten closer. I could see the small features of his face, like a freckle that you wouldn't notice a meter away. I could almost taste the coffee on his breath and I could almost feel the lips that I suddenly had a craving for.
"Why are you here?" I breathed, knowing that we shouldn't be this close.
"To see Blake." Noel uttered placing a hand on my cheek, letting his finger trace my jaw and his breath dance along my face. It felt so right, yet it was so wrong.
"I-I think you should leave." I muttered, immediately regretting it. Noel stared at me a while longer, before pulling himself of the ground and wandering towards the hospital doors. As soon as he was far enough away I let out a long breath, not noticing that I had held it in.
General pov:
"Hay Mate." Mike called seeing his friend walk towards him up the corridor that held the entry to the hospital.
"Mike, um hay." Noel stuttered keeping his mind on Nikita. They had almost kissed, he had almost kissed his best friends girl. Why wasn't Mike comforting her instead of him?
"It's pretty intense up there, not sure if I would go up straight away." Mike replied not noticing Noel's shaky voice, or shifty eyes.
"So I was just talking to Niki." Noel chose to say. He didn't know why he was even bringing it up, it was probably going to end up with them yelling at each other, but he had to know why Mike just left her crying all alone.
"She still messed up?" Mike asked in a sorrowful voice, he didn't even realize that his choice of words could be hurtful.
"Messed up? Nikita is not messed up!" Noel defended Nikita, his voice close to a yell. Mike just didn't get her.
"Well maybe that was the wrong word." Mike admitted, instantly feeling terrible.
"She is still hurting, I mean I tried to comfort her but..." Noel began, "Why weren't you with her anyway?" Noel was comforting Nikita? We all know what happened last time he 'comforted' her.
"Jesse told me to give her some time." Mike said in a cold, harsh voice.
"She didn't need time. She needed someone to tell her it's going to be okay." Noel shrugged, mimicking the tone of Mike's voice. They stared at each other for a long moment, before Mike finally spoke up.
"Did you kiss her?" Mike's voice was filled with anger and hatred. If Noël had so much as laid a hand on her. Noël didn't answer, instead a smirk crossed his face.
"Did you kiss her?" Mike yelled.
"I don't know why she chose you of all people mate. You don't deserve someone as amazing and beautiful as her." Noel replied, a hint of sadness in his voice.
"What? And you do?" Mike was this close to doing something he regretted.
"Yes. I think I do." Noël shrugged. With that small reply Mike threw a punch at Noel, breaking his nose. Noel wiped the blood from his nose before looking up at his friend.
"You stay away from her!" Mike threatened holding Noël against the wall. Noel knew he was strong enough to put up a fight against Mike, but he knew he deserved this.
"YOU HEAR ME?" Mike yelled. Noel nodded and Mike threw him to the ground, walking his way over to Nikita.
Hope you guys liked it! Read and review (:
