Bright Side of the Life

-Chapter 2-

Days passed quickly. The tension in the house was high, mostly between Z and her brother Sky: the two of them never got really along but, since the accident at the Café, things got worst. The only one happy with the situation was Sidney: she was happy because she basically hated the little Tate's siblings. She always dreamt about sending them to border school and having the house just for her and Sky. That day, apparently, was approaching quickly then she thought.

On top of that, Sky couldn't find somebody to help Adele with the guys: none of the girls that the agency sent were good for him "let's face it Sky, nobody will be ever good enough for you" the man looked coldly at Cole Evans, his best friend and partner in his job: they met each other years before and become really good friends. Cole knew who the real Sky was: the one in front of him seemed to have destroyed what he was in the past "don't you dare Evans…" the raven-haired guy stood up laughing "now you're calling me by my surname? I don't recognize you anymore Sky. Since your parents died you've become this kind of… monster! And your relationship with that girl isn't helping at all!"

At that, Sky stood up and grabbed his friend by the collar, glaring at him "you're not in the position to talk to me like that, you know it" he let the guy free and walked out from his studio slamming the door. Cole sighed: he didn't know what he was still doing in the house. Most people would have run away from Sky, but he would never do it: the man needed help, and he was going to give it to his best friend, at all costs.

Meanwhile, Z and her siblings were walking home, when the girl spotted a familiar face on a bench reading a newspaper "guys come with me…" she walked toward the boy slowly, leaving the others confused "Bridge?"

The boy, hearing someone calling for him, looked up "oh gosh, Z right? I was so worried for you" he stood up quickly and hugged the girl tightly. He let her go and looked behind her "who are these guys? Your children?" Z looked horrified at him and slapped him lightly on the arm "My siblings! I'm only 17! Cam, Conner, Ty and Trent this is Bridge, a great friend of mine" Bridge smiled at them as they studied him from head to toe: he seemed to be a very funny guy to hang around.

Z turned to Bridge and looked at him sadly "I'm sorry that you lost your job because of Sky" Bridge shook his head "it's not a problem, really, I'm mostly sad for my house, since I've been evicted as well. But I'm happy to see that he didn't kill you" Z's eyes widened in shock: the boy lost his job and his house, and all he was thinking about was her? "He's always like that don't worry, but where are you going to stay now?" the guy paled: he couldn't tell her "ehm… at a friend" she nodded. Suddenly, she felt one of her brother pulling her coat "Z we have to go, we're late and you know what Sky will do" she sighed as she looked for a piece of paper and a pen in her bag to write her phone number. She then handed it to Bridge "please call me sometimes" he nodded smiling softly at her. She waved at him and made her way to her house followed by her brothers.

At home, the sibling entered the main door to find Sky glaring at them all "guys go to your rooms…" he whispered very angry as he saw them running upstairs. Only Z stood there, ready to confront him "where have you been?" "Out" she simply said as she started to make her way upstairs as well. Sky however, wasn't going to let her win, so he grabbed her arm and stopped her "you know what the rules are, you have to come back here when to school is off, so where the hell have you been??" he said starting raising his voice. Z broke free from his grip "you know where I was? I was talking to Bridge! You remember him? The poor guy that you made lose his job? Ad you want to know something? He also lost his house!"

Sky remembered well the guy: the way he stood up for his sister and against him. No one ever talked to him like that the first time that they met "So what? I'm the one that tell you what to do or not, not a complete stranger! I'M YOUR BROTHER AND YOU HAVE TO RESPECT ME!" Z looked at him as her eyes started watering she couldn't take it anymore "my brother? You just remember it because you have to! And you know why? Because my mother and my father had the funny idea to left me here with you and die in that damn plane crash!!!"

At that, everything froze: something seemed to break into Sky's cold heart. He saw his sister sitting on the first step crying "please Z don't cry, you're not alone I'm her with you-""DON'T YOU DARE SAY IT! You just think about your stupid job and that witch you're with! You don't see anybody else anymore around you! You also succeed in making a guy loosing al he had! You're so stubborn that you didn't even go and tell him that you're sorry! You're not the right man to tell me what to do or not because you can't even do it yourself! I'm sick and tired of this situation Sky. I can't take it anymore"

The girl stood up and ran to her room, leaving Sky set back on the staircase shocked. He put his head into his hands and sighed heavily "You know that she's right" Cole said sitting near him. Sky looked at him sad "am I really like that? She said that I don't listen and I can't say sorry" Cole looked at him silently. Sky just nodded "you're silence answered me. But what can I do? It's hard living like this" Cole rubbed his chin thinking "well, first off all, you have to find that boy and say to him that you're sorry, then-" he didn't finished what he was saying: Sky stood up and ran out of the house, leaving him alone laughing at his friend.
