Tip Of The Knife
[AVA]
“You’re dating Sean Edwards?” Mom asked as she followed me into the kitchen while I poured myself a glass of water.
“It’s not a big deal, mom. Relax.” I said, maybe for the fifth time since I woke up and found her standing at the foot of my bed, probably contemplating waking me up by bringing in a cup of coffee or a bucket of water.
Thank God, she didn't choose any of them, and I woke up on my own. Even a five-year-old could make a better cup of coffee than mom.
Not that I was complaining. I was glad she was finally taking the role of her new title of a housewife a tad seriously. Dad would be thrilled to see she was getting used to our non-luxurious lifestyle.
For every one of us, the first couple of months of bankruptcy were a living nightmare. Especially for mum, who couldn't believe we were broke. One time she even laughed when dad used the word “broke”. When dad gave her a concerned look and Max and I shared a glance

[AVA]After relieving dad from watching over Max the entire previous night, I made sure to walk him to the elevator before turning around, heading back into Max’s care unit and punching my brother straight across his face.Max groaned, startled and infuriated by my attempt to bruise him, given his vulnerable situation. "What the fuck was that for?"He held an arm up before I could hit him again.“Don’t you fucking know?” I bristled, wanting to do give him more than just a black eye. I wanted to throttle him. Fucking asshole.Max stared at the door, probably wondering if he should wait for the nurse to show up to save him or just bolt out of the room if he could. Not that either of them was happening anytime soon. The nurse had already completed her morning rounds, and with all those stitches on his stomach, he wouldn’t make it three steps away from the bed without my help.He inhaled through his mouth, appearing more confined than he had ever looked in his life. “Look, I can explain.”
FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND You're the worst!
[BRIAN]“Dad, I’m so sorry!” Kian winced, and probably said for the fifteenth time, not that I had been keeping a count. My headspace had been a jumble of its own kind, not a single straight thought that I could recognize as my own.That is what happens when you trust your kid with your phone. They rob you of your peace of mind and leave you to fucking question everything in your life. God, how did I not see this coming?Today, I chose to drive the car myself, since Kian loved to see me behind the wheel, something he revealed while we went on a long drive that night, nearly to one of the cabins we owned beyond the city limits. We hadn’t traveled that far or anywhere else since Val died. But I could tell by the way his eyes sparkled at the familiar roads, the scent of pines and woods that he wished to come back here someday.If it wasn’t for Kian’s school the next day, and of course the fact that his mom still needed to find him tucked in bed and not driving too fast with his having-to
FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND More Time
[MAX]When I walk into the Hollyday bar, it’s like moving back to the 70s when the music was groovier and girls wore halter tops and jumpsuits. Sure, the men here wore more leather jackets and knuckle rings than polyester leisure suits, but it was exactly what made this whole thing so dangerous.I can’t deny that coming back here without the money I owed these people was never the plan. But then again, I didn’t actually have a plan, or a fucking idea, of what I was getting myself into. I knew these guys were dangerous—the scars on their faces and the look of death in their eyes were pretty good points to take notice of—but three months ago, I was more worried about upholding my reputation among my friends rather than my future.It's funny how none of those friends came to even see me when I almost died in the hospital. Not even Landon, the one to introduce me to these people. I wonder if he knew what these people ha
FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND Pass Out
[AVA]“You did what?” Is that what he said? Did my brother truly make things worse than they already were? “What on earth were you thinking?” I feel like I keep saying that, but people around me don’t seem to get tired of surprising the hell out of me, so maybe it’s not entirely my fault.“Obviously I didn’t,” he shrugs, as if it’s not a big deal, as if messing with a fucking gang leader is something he does every day, like brushing his teeth or going for a run first thing in the morning. He then frowns. “And why are you so upset with me? Isn’t this what you wanted me to do? To take care of it?” He has the audacity to act as if I am the bad guy here. A terrible, stupid man.“To clean up your mess, yes. Not make matters worse?” I can’t believe I’m practically spelling it out for him. What the heck is the matter with him? “What did you expec
FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND The Memory
[AVA]It’s five in the morning, and still quite dark outside.When I woke up after a long sleep, the first thing I did was grab my phone. There were missed calls from dad, Max, and Sean.Initially, I felt a sense of panic because dad didn’t know my whereabouts. However, I calmed down when I realized he was aware that I was going to be with Max at the hospital.I tried calling Max, but he didn’t answer. I assumed he was heavily sedated due to the painkillers given by the nurses. So, I sent him a text, instructing him on what to tell dad if he called. I also texted Sean, but unlike Max, he promptly called me to ensure I was alright.A hot cup of coffee sits on the table as I attempt to find a more comfortable position on the couch, desperately trying to avoid any reminders of the night I spent here with Brian. It was a night filled with countless passionate encounters, an experience that overwhelmed me like the ocea
FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND Come All Over
[BRIAN]I was fifteen years old when I first kissed a girl. Evelyn Gordon was her name. She was in my class and the most stunning girl I had ever seen. Mason, my twin brother, was also smitten with her. But I didn’t realize it at the time. I was so caught up in my own world, weaving all kinds of fantasies with her, that I didn’t notice how my brother looked at her or how he always got tongue-tied whenever it was their turn to sit together in Mr Warren’s lab.Mr Warren used to have this bowl system where instead of sitting in our regular seats or wherever we wanted, he made us pick a folded paper from the bowl and whichever number was written on it, we were stuck on that bench for a week. I recall being jealous of Mason because every time Evelyn smiled, laughed, or just pushed some hair out of her face, or blushed the deepest shade of red at something he said, I had a nagging suspicion that she was mistaking Mason for me. At least that
FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND Regret Us
[AVA] A blissful moment consumes every fibre of my existence. It sweeps over me like a cool breeze on a hot summer night, makes me giddy and silly, and leaves me so darn satisfied that if I ever had a last wish before dying, I am pleased to say it has been thoroughly fulfilled. Only, I should have known it was too good to be true. Because the second the veil of lust lifted and the awareness of what had happened dawned on both of us, the bliss that once felt like the best thing that had ever happened to me shattered like a fine china urn. Brian rips himself away from me as if my skin is suddenly oozing electricity. He snatches his clothes from the floor and throws them on in so much rush, I feel dizzy just looking at him. I sit up and get dressed myself without breaking down in tears. He’s acting as if he’s embarrassed by what happened between us, as if he’s on the verge of screaming his head off. For a long moment, he just sits with h
FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND Silent Auction
[AVA]It’s been a month since that night—correction:morning. A month since I saw the last of Brian. A month since we had that moment and he kicked me out of his life as if I had no place to be in it. Maybe he was right. Maybe there was no reason for me to feel so betrayed. Maybe it was just what he said it was. A mistake. And hoping that it was anything more than that was just plain stupid.After making sure I took the pill and forcing me to swear that I would take the rest of them too, Brian dropped me outside of my apartment building and left once I got in. I had a spare key with me, so instead of molesting the doorbell, I stuck the key and got myself in.I cried the entire time that day, not even bothered that only a day was left before those goons showed up to recover their money again. It was as if nothing else really mattered, as if my life was over and nothing good was left in it.But I reminded myself&md
