Lawrence's POV
It almost took forever running from my house to Tom's. My legs were killing me, but I really needed to see him. All this is going shit and it's my fault! And my phone! Ugh! What the hell was I even thinking to turn it back on?!
All I could think is the worse—I mean, I already know that when my brother finds Tom, which he will because Luis is fucking crazy too...Tom will be in that damn hospital.
I curled my hand into a fist and started to bang on Tom's door hoping that he would answer as soon as possible because I really need to talk about this. His car was in the driveway, so he is definitely here...a minute passed by, and he still hasn't answered the door.
Fuck! What the hell am I supposed to fucking do!?
My hands grabbed my hair angrily, pulling it on as I cried—dropping down on Tom's front porch. The neighbors can think I'm some crackhead or some freak, but I was so stressed out! I'm just so tired of everyone just messing up my life.
First my mom.
Then Ana.
Now fucking Luis.
They're all turning against me for what?! Just because I'm fucking a guy a few years older than me? That's bullshit! I just want everyone to stop worrying and go back to their own lives! They don't need to be all up in mine.
"Lawrence?" I heard a voice behind me.
I sniffed quietly and moved my hair to see Tom and Bill walking towards me. My eyes widened as I quickly jumped up from the porch, fixing myself before smiling at the two men coming my way. "Hey guys!" I waved awkwardly, then putting my hands behind my back.
Tom steps on the porch and stares down at me, a cold stare...oh no. Was he mad that we were caught? I knew he was. I was mad too! Like fuck! But then Tom grabs my shoulders, pulling me in a hug—a big bear hug.
oh...that's exactly what I needed...
I sunk into him, wanting our bodies to stand as one...oh I needed this hug. He's just what I needed right now...
"I'm so sorry for everything." I whispered to him softly.
Tom sighs, "it's okay, Lawrence."
Lawrence.
Where was baby?
I slowly pulled away from him after hearing that he didn't use the nickname...I wanted him to call me it. I was too young for him—when I'm older I already know I'll look back and think of how much of a bad kid I was...at least it'll be worth it.
Tom is worth it for this...moment I guess.
"What are you doing here...I thought—"
"I snuck out." I quickly cut him off. Tom's eyes widened and backed away from me, he shakes his head before speaking up. "Lawrence, you're only going to go get us in more trouble." Tom says...true.
Of course, he was right but I rather risk this...I rather see him in my last moments—why? Because he's the only person who actually pays attention to me. Someone who actually acknowledged me...
"I know! But Tom...my brother, he's—" I stopped myself and licked my lips, running my fingers through my hair nervously. I didn't know how to tell him that my older brother is going to beat the living shit out of him. "My brother is back in town and my fuckass of a mother told him about us." I throw my arms to my side with a flop.
Tom's face jumped in worry before twists with confusion, "what's wrong with Luis?"
"He's going to—" I stop myself, my mouth gapped open and slowly shutting it. Oh my god...what the fuck?
Wait a damn minute...
Tom knows my brother?
"I never told you his name..." I whispered mostly to myself.
Tom chuckles, shifting himself a bit, "you told me about him, remember?"
No...I don't remember because I never spoken a peep about him to Tom. It was just running through my head—how the hell does Tom know Luis?
"Wait? Luis Lino?" Bill asks with a snort from behind me, I whipped my head around towards Tom's twin and nodded. "Yeah. You know him?" I huffed with an eye roll.
Bill slowly peered over to Tom before looking at me, then back over to Tom...what the fuck is going on? Why isn't nobody fucking speaking?! Someone needs to speak up before I blow shit up.
"What is it?!" I shouted at Bill.
"Luis and Tom...go way back."
