please read!

I changed the facts a little bit so now when Skyler's dad died she was Twelve not Ten like I previously wrote

enjoy!

.......................................

"great that's just great, anyway if we are done here-" Jaxon started to say but I cut him

"We are not, what are you not telling me?!" I said with a deadly voice

"Matthew call Jonathan," David said and King nodded. they all started talking with each other and didn't notice I froze

Matthew

--------------------------------

Matthew's (King) pov

I was going to go get Jonathan but then I saw her eyes, it was too late, she knew. at first, she looked confused shocked maybe but then I looked at her eyes, they held sadness, anger but most important, betrayal.

I don't get scared easily only when it comes to family and she is family, maybe not by blood but important just like one, and that, that exact reaction, is what scared me the most, what hurted me the most.

after a few moments, she broke the eye contact and turned to David

"tell me later who will give me the punishment and what is it, I will do it" she said quickly to David and left

"fuck" I said and gave the table a punch that broke him.

"Matthew calm down, this won't help right now, go and tell Jonathan," Jaxon said. without another word, I left the room and went looking for Jonathan.

................................

Skyler's pov

I was in my room lying on my bed, so many thoughts crossing my mind right now I don't know what to think.

Matthew

I haven't heard that name in ten years, but I would never forget him and his family, even if I was young.

I kept staring at the necklace I held in my hand

-flashback-

"Hey what's up?" I asked as soon as I finished climbing our treehouse

"Ria said she has something to give us but she wanted to wait for you," Nate said. I looked at Riley with questioning eyes

"while me and mom were shopping we passed a jewelry store and I saw something really beautiful and asked mom to buy it" she said and then walked to her school beg and pulled out a black box.

"come on Riley me and Nate have basketball practice in an hour and we need to get ready," Matthew said

"shut up Mateo, there is this thing called patience," I said and rolled my eyes

"fine please hurry up," he said and I glared at him

"Thanks, Kaya, but you know my brother," she said rolling her eyes. she opened the black box and I gasped

"Kaya that's so beautiful," I said

"I know right?" she said smiling

it was four necklaces every necklace had a part of a heart and with all the pieces it was complete on each one was a part of the sentence best friends forever and ever (picture of the necklace on the top)

"I'm not wearing that," Nate and Matthew said at the same time. me and Riley looked at each other and nodded

"I knew you will hate it," Riley said crying

"you don't love us," I said crying too

the boys had a guilty look on their face and after a few second they took their part and the same second we stopped crying

"great now hurry up you have practice," I said and took Riley's hand and dragged her down the tree

"They totally got us" I heard matt said

"How are they so good at that" Nate said

"years of practice" I yelled when I was already off the tree

Riley and I could not stop laughing

-end of flashback-

I got the forever one.

forever yeah right.

Riley, Matthew, Nate, and I were best friends me and Riley are the same age, and even if Nate was two years older than us and Matthew three years we still were always together. Riley and Matthew were siblings, we knew each other since we were born because our families were good friends, best friends to be exact. my dad and their dad were in the same team in the Navy Seals and from there, our mothers became friends too.

when my father died, when I needed them the most, they left. we never heard from them again they just left. not only my best friends were gone I considered Harry and Isabella my aunt and uncle and when we all cried about my dad's death they were on a plane to god knows where. Nate took it hard but I took it harder I couldn't believe them not only I lost my father they left me, my second family.

so now looking at the necklaces with the word forever I want to laugh at how not true that word is but I could never bring myself to throw it away or destroy it I just couldn't so I just excused it by saying to myself that my brother has one too and it's for my brother, but deep down I know the truth. my brother never took off his too.

I was brought out of my thoughts when I heard the door opening

"hey," my brother said once he closed the door

"did you know?" I asked him whispering not trusting my voice

"Since I got here, yes, but-" he started to say but I stopped him

"then get out," I said bitterly

"please" I added so he would see now is not the time and I need to be alone right now.

he sighed and then I heard the door open and then close.

I don't even want to start thinking why he thought that not telling me was a good idea. by the look of it the others knew too, I needed to know and now it's just fell on me like a bomb instead of telling me calmly. if there's something he should have learned from movies is that keeping a secret instead of telling the secret is always a bad idea

"Oh hi," I said surprised. I was in the shower and when I got in no one was here and now I just finished getting dressed and got out and the whole team which mean Jaxon, Lanny, Luke, and even Owen were here

"We wanted to apologize for not telling you," Luke said and they all nodded

"Listen I'm not angry especially not on you, I'm guessing my brother or Matt-" I stopped before I could say Mateo which was how I called him. I took a deep breath

"or King asked you not to so it's not your fault. with that being said I know you are more close to my brother but I hope that if something like this will happen in the future you will tell me at least something is up, we are a team and we are not supposed to have secrets from each other. I know it wasn't your place to tell me but now I feel like you don't trust me, like you are protecting me but too much, I'm not some fragile doll, my brother was wrong in hiding it from me, he probably thought I can't take it, that I will fall apart and I'm used to it from him but I hope I won't be used to it from you" I said and gave them a small smile

"I'm going to see if there's something left from dinner," I said and moved toward the door

"there is we asked them to save you some" Jaxon said and I mumbled thank you and walked to the Cafeteria
