Chapter 2

" Really that was all he said?". Elena asked again, and bloom just nods, her fingers on her lips, and a sly smile on her face, making Elena roll her eyes and smile.

" Bloom". Elena yelled, snapping bloom from what ever trance she was in.

" What was that about?". Elena asked, dropping her books into her locker and shutting it.

" It's nothing". Bloom whispered, playing with her rings on her fingers, yeah that was something in her language.

" It better not be about the all so hot Lorenzo". Elena sarcastically mumbled, rolling her eyes, making bloom smile.

" It's just there's something about him".

" Bloom he his your teacher this could go wrong in so many ways, he could get fired, ps it's just a stupid crush". Now she sounded like a mom.

Bloom lips pushed stopping herself from saying her next words, she would have said it either way, if her eyes hadn't caught the guards on suits walking towards them, they were her dad's men.

Her eyes widen and she was about to make a run for it but was stopped, seeing they were also coming from the other side, Elena turned finally noticed what was going on.

" Miss, we have orders, to bring you screaming and kicking or unconscious". Bloom eyes wonder, and caught sight of a green ones, that looked away the minute she saw them.

" Bloom". Elena called and she snapped out of what ever trance she was in.

" I'll call you". She mumbled, giving her a small smile, before shoving her bag into a guards chest, and storming off.

Run, Run, Run.

Where the only words she could hear, and she did just that, running, pushing off the flowers, she didn't stop running she just kept going, her dark hair sparkled in the moon light, her green eyes wondered about, her breath slipping away by the second.

She tripped and fell flat on her face, Turing she saw her chaser, but just his shadow.

" Get up Ari". He growled, annoyed she fell.

" I...I don't think I can". She forced out.

" You have to". He grumbled, and she just swallowed.

" If I caught you, I'll ruine you, in so many fucked up Ways". Her breath hitched, her eyes desperately wanting to see more than his shadow.

" Get up". His words came out like a plead.

" Wake up sleeping beauty". A voice which she likes to classify as annoying , whispered into her ears and that woke her up.

It was a dream.

She blinked and finally realized she was in her bed, she turned to Knox blue eyes, and rolled hers hitting his face with her pillow, she let out and ouch, and she rolled out of bed.

" Why am I here?". She mumbled Turing to her mirror and fixing her hair, she got a flash of her dream, closing her eyes she took a deep breath, what was that about?.

" Do you always have to be in a terrible mode every time you show up". Knox, asked his fingers on his perfect nose she might have broken.

" Well who can't be in a good mood, when kidnapped can you". She cursed falling back into her bed.

Knox stared at her, his arms tugged into his pants, he stared at the girl he has know his entire life, a girl he has loved his entire life, but she didn't have to know that not yet.

Not now, when he was just her dad's right hand man to her, not when she thinks it's okay to rant about her boy problem to him, or hate him when her father gives an order he can't think of refusing.

Just not now.

" Your crashed your blind date, what do you expect". Knox whispered.

" Correction I broke his nose and dumped hot cheese on him".

" Thank goodness, this time it wasn't murder, but I bet the next would be". He joked, and it worked cause now, Ari had a smile on her face.

"Is it too much to not want to be part of the Austin's?". She grumbled, her frown back.

" When you're the only thing close to your mom, yeah it would be". Knox said taking a seat besides her, and she decides to place her face on his thigh.

" I don't want this any of this". She mumbled, her voice low, but Knox was to busy trying to keep his thought clean he almost missed it.

" Last I checked you aren't given a choice".He teased,and that got her to lift her face only for one reason to hit him, hard on his arm, he grabbed a pillow and hitted her back, and now they were in a pillow fight, with ended with Ari being on Knox, and Knox laughing under her.

" You really are annoying". She mumbled smiling, completely unaware of their sex like position, his blue eyes softened, and he just stared into the green eyes he knew weren't real, but still they were beautiful.

" Only for you". He muttered, his voice low, but she caught it, she rolled her eyes and sat on him, making Knox eyes widen..

" Now back to my question why am I here?". She asked, but Knox wasn't listening.

He could feel her string panties underneath her already so short skirt on his dick, but before she could feel his hard Dick, and how much he wanted her, he flipped her over, holding her down to the bed.

" You really are annoying". Ari mumbled, before letting out a small laugh.

" You two done Fucking?". Ari didn't need to sit up to know who that annoying voice belong to, but she did anyway just to see the annoying stepbrother at the door.

" For your sake I hope he's good In bed, as good as he is at not knowing his place". If she had a gun, he'd be long dead.

" Trust me he is as good, so good I see stars, but you won't know how that feels like, seeing you won't know the first thing about being good in bed". Knox, stared between the green eyes and a dark one, but mostly one the green ones, was she serious?.

" I dare you say that again". Flynn dared, his hands clenched, and his eyes wearing a glare, telling everyone he was this close to exploding.

" Am sorry am only saying what your girlfriend couldn't say, you can ask her, oh right she dumped your ass, and actually went for someone who actually knows how to use his dick". And he snapped, he lunched towards her, but was stopped by Knox, he throughs a punch, at Knox, but Knox doesn't buge, instead gives him a glare.

" Punch's like a pussy". Ari taunt.

" Stop it both of you".

Ari stares at the man, she calls dad, a man who was once the hero in her story, her king, but now she just wants out of everything,her dad and this house a place she once called home, not anymore.

" Both of you down". He ordered, and Flynn stormed out, he stared at her, his gaze softened, before leaving.

Turning to Ari, he smiled she was trying so hard to hold the tears but was failing at it, well almost failing.

" Come to think of it, when was the last time I saw you cried?". He mumbled, she gave an half smile, a smile filled with so many hurt and surpressed emotions, she dropped the smile feeling she was showing too much emotions and took the tears right out of her eyes.

" Even if I wanted to I can't, my foundation is too expensive". She mumbled walking out, she really was a nut chase.

Walking down the stairs, she saw her sixteen year old self, watched her mom, fall down from this very step and died at her feet, she would give anything to go back in time and had been home earlier, anything to have a proper last words with her mom, instead of the words that would forever hurt her.

Sitting on the couch, Knox takes his seat besides her, what ever all this was about she really want it over.

" Let's make this fast, I have a life to get back to". She taunt, and Flynn glared.

" Do you two, really have to be in each other, Fucking throats every Fucking time". Mr Austin yelled sick of their constant behavior.

" Language dad, but who am I kidding, you never had the manners". Flynn stared at his dad, wondering how he was going to react to what she just said.

" How dare you?". Mr Austin yelled.

" Am just being honest, dad". She taunt, he takes in a deep breath, stood up and paced around.

" I get it you hate me, I get it you're mad, and I have spent the last five years begging and waiting for your forgiveness, I don't ask you to forgive me, I just want you to be the daughter of this family even if you hate my guts". He pleaded, Ari stood up and held his gaze, she was just like her mother, he thought, and nothing on earth would hurt more,than seeing these pari of eyes stare at him with so much hate, eyes that once pleaded with him to take her everywhere he went, only because she didn't want to be separated from him, but now, now she hated his existence.

" I can't be a daughter to the person who murder his wife". And his heart broke, his gaze fell to the floor only to push back the tears.

" I loved your mother ". He whispered underneath his breath, but Ari heard him.

" You shouldn't have killed her then".

" I Loved Your Mother". He yelled.

" I loved her". He mumbled again, breaking his own heart onto a thousand pieces, and Ari just gave him the smile and walked past him, but was stopped by Knox, she hadn't seen got up and standing in her way.

" Move". She yelled but Knox didn't.

" Get out of my way". She yelled, hitting his chest, as a way to get rid of her anger and emotions, and Knox just let her.

" Fucking move". I yelled again.

" You're not going anywhere". She turned to her father, his right hand in his pocket, back to his all glory and not the broken father, he was six seconds ago.

" I can't stay here".

" Last I checked this is your home".

" I have a life to get back to, school, final exams, graduation, which you won't be attending".

" Well to bad". He pointed out.

" You both shall accompany me to a gala party tonight, no questions asked, settled". He said, finally noticed Flynn, who has been quite while watching the father and daughter trying not to burn the house down.

" I don't want to". Ari snapped.

" Too bad it wasn't a matter of your choice, gown would be up in your room soon". He passed on and walked away, leaving Knox to his fate In Ari's hands.
