The property of Brendan Brady

Chapter six

I knew he'd come here, I knew he'd want answers and even though I was scared, petrified of losing him again, I owed him the truth. He wasted no time in asking me.

"Is it true Brendan? Did you threaten Doug, Knowing how busy we are with the deli? Did you make him leave?"

How could I let him stay here, take away Steven from me, let him have all the things I've wanted for so long, but denied myself them…..until now. Doesn't he get how much I love him after all that has happened between us? I would do anything to get him back, and everything I'd done to Douglas I would do again if I had to.

"Yes Steven, it's all true, what did you expect?"

I couldn't help but get angry. I'd tried so hard to forget what I saw, move on from what still haunts me every day….them kissing. Douglas with his hands all over my Steven….my boy, how dare he. Am I really supposed to just sit back and watch my world fall apart in front of my eyes?

"Then I have nothing left to say to you Brendan, were done here"

Steven was just about to leave, but then I shouted out.

"I SAW YOU KISSING HIM STEVEN!"

Steven stopped dead in his tracks and turned around to face me. I could see that tears had started to fall; I didn't understand why he was crying. It was me that was just about to lose everything.

"You…saw…us…kissing…"

Steven replied. He looked so sad.

"I'm sorry Steven, I didn't know what else to do, I'm going out of my mind with jealously, I hated that you have moved on from me. I love ye and I want to keep on loving ye for as long as you'll have me. It's always been you Steven; you are my life….please…."

It all came out so fast, everything I felt for him, I couldn't hold it in any more. He always wanted me to be honest with him, so here's me being honest.

"Brendan I'm so mad at you. It's all your fault that I've moved on, you pushed me away, you didn't want me, you hit me, again. You only want me now because Doug does"

But that wasn't true, not anymore. It just gave me the push I needed. I wanted him so much; it was the only thing in my life that I was completely certain off.

"You're wrong steven. Let me show you, I'll prove myself to you every day if I have to. All I want is a chance to make you happy, we can be together properly now, just like you've always wanted, like I've always wanted deep down."

"I'm so sorry Brendan…..we've been here too many times"

He went to open the door, but I was right there before he had the chance.

"Please don't go steven"

He looked at me, god how I love his face, I stared into his eyes, I could see that he was fighting with himself. Neither of us could deny the chemistry we shared together. If relationships were built on chemistry alone we'd be together in another life time as well as this one. I lent in so that our lips were almost touching, I needed him to kiss me first, I had to see if he would and of course he did. He kissed me and it was amazing, it was as if everything he felt for me came out through his lips, it left me breathless. I wanted him so bad and I know he wanted me too.

"You're never going to let me go are you Bren?"

"I can't let you go Steven I need ye more than the air that I breathe, ye are everything to me. I know that I haven't always shown ye that but I will. Ye need to trust me, I have to be with ye, without ye there is nothing else for me."

"Do you really mean it though Bren? You have promised me before and let me down"

He will always doubt me, I have to except that, I want him to trust me but that will come with time, regardless of what I promise him.

"I swear to ye Steven on my kids life, I want to spend the rest of my life making it up to ye"

He kissed me again, this time I knew exactly what he wanted. I always thought I could stop things with him if I wanted to, I thought that I controlled him and that he would do anything I'd asked him to do. But reality is that, it's the other way around. Although he loves me he can be without me and move on if he needs to.

I always thought he was my property but really he's not. As for me I am defiantly and always will be the property of Steven Hay.
