To Catch a Dream

“I told you that I know your family, Eira.” Koa smirked, knowingly. I shrugged Isaac’s arm off of my shoulders and glared at the three males. I groaned, frustrated and turned to walk home. “Where do you think you’re going this late?” He was taller than me so it didn’t take long for him to easily catch up to me, coming to a stop in front of me. I glared daggers up at him, crossing my arms defiantly. I chewed on my lower lip defiantly while angrily shifting my weight onto my right leg.“Come on Eira. Just get in the car. You know that Ma would kill us if we let you walk home, alone, at this hour.” Landon complained. I whipped around so that I could face him, growing angrier by the minute. I flipped him off causing him to sigh. “Do I look like I fucking care right now? I’m a grown ass woman and can take care of myself!” I declared, placing my hands on my hips. He looked at me pleadingly and I shook my head, then turned so that I could begin to walk home once more. Within seconds of turn

“Koa...please listen to me when I say this…there was nothing that you could have done. I couldn’t leave the darkness that haunted me both during the day and at night.” I pleaded quietly with him. He slowly reached out his hands toward my face and using his thumbs, he wiped away my tears. I opened my mouth to speak again but couldn’t find the words that I desperately wanted to say. “Then stay. Stay here. Stay with me.” His voice broke as his eyes searched mine imploringly. I looked down, hesitating a moment too long because he took the opportunity to lift me up and place me onto his lap. I went to stand up when he firmly held me in place, straddling his lap. “I’ll do whatever you want and tell you everything you want to know. Just don’t leave…” I looked at him, my eyes widening slightly in shock. This was not the Koa that I remembered.“Koa…” I quietly began. He cut off what I was about to say as he crashed his lips desperately onto mine. I was caught up in the moment as I automatical

I was pacing in my room, fully dressed and mentally was preparing myself for tonight’s activities. I was wearing a simple flowy dress, with thigh-high boots and my favorite hat. I heard the doorbell chime, and contemplated on just sneaking out my bedroom window. I groaned knowing that I wouldn’t do anything to upset Dom again, gathered up my purse then walked down to the foyer. Standing there was Koa, he had his black leather jacket flung over his shoulder and was dressed in a snug, white v-neck tee, dark jeans and black converse. He watched me closely as I descended the stairs, my brothers’ backs facing me. Dom followed Koa’s gaze and when his eyes fell on me, he smiled and gave a small nod before turning his attention back to Koa, “Take special care of my sister. I may have known you for a fairly long time, but I will not hesitate to kill you if something happens to her. Understand me?” Koa smiled, giving a small confidant nod and Dom chuckled before dragging the other two out of t

Once I had arrived in front of Chad’s place, I was beyond pissed. I called my twin brother who automatically answered on the first ring. “What’s wrong, E?” His voice was husky informing me that he was probably sleeping. I rolled my eyes as I glared at the preppy boy’s house in front of me. “Come to Chad’s. Now!” I demanded then hung up. I shut off my bike and hiked up the stairs to his front door. I knocked loudly twice when he shouted that he was coming and to quit knocking. When he opened the door, he smiled smugly at me while checking me out. “What do I owe the pleasure, babe?” I rolled my eyes and punched him as hard as I could square in the face. “You sick f*ck! You beat on my baby sister, then try to hit on me?” I screamed angrily at him. I heard the cluster of motorcycle engines roaring behind me. Chad looked up at me terrified. The group of footsteps running towards our direction told me that Ethan had told the others. Ethan got to me first and briskly pulled me off of Chad

Once we had slowly yet successfully made it out of the bar, we came face to face with my brothers. “Eira?” Ethan walked up to us first as the others watched us closely. I could tell that he was being cautious as he approached us. Our eyes met and his expression mimicked the pain that I was desperately trying to hide. I knew that I was failing at masking of my emotions though judging by the look on all of my brothers' worried riddled faces.“Someone take me home…” I mumbled and Ethan nodded solemnly. He glanced from me over to Koa briefly.“Just let us talk to Koa for a quick sec, ‘kay?” Ethan nervously asked, resting his hands on my shoulders lightly. I nodded slowly then made my way over to his motorbike. He walked over to Koa and I zoned out for most of their conversation until I heard Parker say my name. “What the hell happened in there with Eira and you?” Parker asked Koa. At first, Koa simply shrugged but Parker and Liam persisted. “I don’t really care to talk about that at the
