Short A/N: For all you wanting to know what Michael says I will be adding that into the next chapter. It'll be Bella informing Ashton and Jasmine. So yeah :) Hope you guys like this. xx
I was frozen. Michael and Kayla where yelling at each other outside, Luke was in the kitchen making food. Everything is getting worse. I stared into a blank space and sighed.
"I'm so sorry Bella, I really am." Luke said sitting next to me, while handing me a plate of food.
"Why are you sorry?"
"Maybe if I didn't join Kate's plan you're life wouldn't have turned out like this." He sighed putting his head in his hands.
"If it wasn't for you coming to mine to drop my phone off and seeing what my mum was doing, she probably would have killed me right then and there."
"But maybe that wouldn't have happened."
I shrugged slightly and looked outside to see Kayla and Michael still yelling at eachtother.
"I can't believe you did that Michael." Kayla shouted.
"You've repeated that so many times." Michael sighed leaning against the wall.
"That's because I don't want to believe it Michael. Bella is our friend and I don't understand why you betrayed her for Kate."
"Kayla, I joined the plan to help you. She threatened me okay, Kate came to my house once you left to go to the shops last week and she started asking me all these questions about you." Michael said taking a breath.
I suddenly felt guilty. I'm pulling everyone I care about down with me.
"She threatened to kill you as well Kayla." Michael finally said.
I shook my head, getting off the couch walking towards the door with tears rolling down my cheeks.
"Bella." Luke called after me.
I leant against the wall and started crying.
"What's wrong?" He asked pulling me into a hug.
"Everything is wrong Luke, if I didn't come with you to Michael's they both wouldn't have been pulled into this mess with me. I'm bringing everyone down with me. Even you." I cried.
Luke hugged me tighter as I sobbed louder.
"Bella." Kayla called.
I quickly seperated myself from Luke and wiped my eyes.
"Do I look okay?" I asked Luke quietly.
He nodded lightly and I walked around the corner to greet Kayla.
"Have you been crying?" She asked.
I looked at Luke and he put his hands up in defense.
"Look I am so sorry for Michael." She said.
"Don't." I said shaking my head. "I can't stand anymore apologies that are not needed."
"But they are."
"It's not you're guy's fault, it's mine for pulling you into this mess."
"Don't blame yourself Bella." Kayla said giving me a small smile. "Blame Kate."
I nodded not wanting to say anything else. Suddenly we heard something smash outside. We all looked outside to see Michael sitting on the ground behind a smashed flower pot. I stood up straight and headed for the door to go into the backyard.
"Bella, what are you doing?" Luke asked.
"I'm going to talk to Michael."
"Do you think that's a good idea?"
I shrugged. "If he kill's me I'd rather it be now."
"He won't kill you Bella." Kayla assured me.
I nodded before walking out.
"Go away." Michael snapped not bothering turning around.
"Isn't that what I should be saying to you." I sighed walking over to him.
He glanced at me before looking at where he was looking before.
"You're the last person I would expect to come out here."
"Well I have nothing to be mad about."
"You do."
I shook my head. "You guys should be hating me, I'm the one who actually pulled you guys into this mess." I sighed.
"Fuck Bella, you can't blame everything on yourself." Michael sighed throwing his hand in the air.
"And you can't blame yourself for protecting Kayla."
"But I probably made everything worse."
"You haven't." I said honestly.
After a few moments of silence, Michael stood up and went back inside. I sighed and looked at the ground. What have I done to Kate to make her this upset with me? Ever since I introduced myself to her she's made sure that nothing good happens to me. Ontop of the Kate situation, I still have my mental mother who is probably more willingly to kill me than Kate.
"Bella." Luke said, probably for the thousandth time today.
I looked over to the door and faked a smile.
"Hi."
"Michael and Kayla are leaving."
I nodded. Luke looked back inside and waved before coming to sit next to me.
"Am I a bad person?" I asked.
Luke shook his head frantically and put his hand on my back.
"You are not a bad person. What made you think that?"
"I don't know. I mean, my mom abuses me, Kate wants to kill me. Obviously I have done something wrong."
"They are just fucked up, I don't understand why they would want you dead."
I shrugged.
"Thanks for being there for me." I said looking at Luke.
He looked at me and smiled.
"Anytime."
