Blurred Lines

~Plot Twist~

"The boys getting on your nerves already?" Taylor asked with a knowing look.

"You already know." I sighed. Her and Willow both laughed which made me smile. Willow really is a beautiful girl and she's incredibly sweet.

"If they're anything like my cousins, they must drive you insane." Willow said, shaking her head.

She has no freaking idea.

    THREE HOURS LATER:

I was actually enjoying myself for once. Willow's family is incredibly nice and I absolutely adore her baby niece Kayla. She's a cute chubby little girl and she has the cutest little laugh.

"You look good with a baby." I looked up hearing Brandon. I smiled before looking down at the baby in my hands.

"She's so cute! I can't wait to have one of my own." I said. Kayla giggled before she started babbling about her mama.

"Mhm. Doubt it'll be just one." I looked up at him and lifted an eyebrow.

"Are you implying something Mr Carrea?" He smirked before he shrugged.

"I absolutely am." He said before he leaned down and placed a quick kiss on my cheek. I glared at him before I smiled.

"You better be glad I think you're cute." He chuckled before looking at Kayla.

"Do you wanna hold her?" I asked softly. He looked at me and shook his head.

"I've never-uh, I've never actually held one before." I smiled before turning towards him.

"Hold your hands out." He bit his lip before holding his hands out. I slowly put baby Kayla in his arms and moved his hand to her back.

"See, not so bad." He looked slightly uncomfortable so I went to take her back but he shook his head.

"Uh, she won't cry will she?" I shook my head before leaning over to look at her.

"She's sleepy." Her eyes were closing and she was sighing. I grabbed her pacifier and held it up to her mouth. She yawned before taking it.

"She's cute." I looked up at B and nodded.

"Hey I'm gonna run to the bathroom. Are you ok to stay here with her?" He frowned before looking back at Kayla.

"What if she starts crying?"

"Give her to WIllow. I doubt she'll try though." I said before I quickly kissed his cheek and headed inside. I didn't know where the bathroom was so I looked for someone to tell me.

"Lost?" I turned and smiled seeing Leo.

"A little bit. I'm looking for the bathroom." He nodded before pointing upstairs.

"Third door on the right. Ignore the weird family photos. We have a FEW black sheep in the family." He laughed.

"I totally understand. Thank you." I said before I turned and headed up the stairs. He was right there were a lot of pictures along the walls.

I could barely see the paint on the walls because of how many pictures there were. I couldn't help but look at them. Willow truly had a beautiful family.

I had finally gotten to the bathroom when I saw something out of the corner of my eye. I thought about ignoring it because I really had to pee but something in the back of my mind was telling me to look.

I turned and bent down to see the picture better. I felt my heart stutter when I finally looked at the photo. It was like my airways had closed and my lungs were about to collapse.

Why was Tony in Willow's family pictures?!

I slowly backed away before I took a deep breath and turned around. My ears were ringing as vivid flashbacks of everything he did to me ran across my mind. I tried to ignore it but I couldn't. The more I tried to ignore everything the worse I felt.

I leaned back against the wall and let out a shaky breath. I feel so stupid. I can't even control my emotions around a stupid freaking picture! I feel weak. Useless.

PATHETIC.

I slowly sat down on the floor and tried to take slow, deep breaths. I was trying so hard to calm down but I couldn't. I hate feeling like this! So freaking helpless!

"Kali?" I felt as if a weight had been lifted off my shoulders when I heard Tristan's voice.

"Come on, doll. Tell me what's wrong," I felt his hands on my arms and I quickly grabbed onto him.

"I just wanna go, T. Please!" He nodded before pulling me up and wrapping his arm around me.

"Can you tell me what-"

"I just wanna go." I whispered. He nodded before leading me downstairs.

"Hi guys! Oh, is something wrong? Was it the food? Oh god we've poisoned you!" I heard Willow talking but I didn't care to listen. I just wanted to go home.

"She's feeling a little sick. I think we're gonna head home." Tristan said shortly.

"Kal, are you ok-"

"Tell Brandon and the guys to come on." Tristan said before he pulled me out of the house and over to the car.

He opened the door before he helped me in. I leaned back against the seat and closed my eyes. Suddenly I feel the need to take a nap. I just feel so tired.

"You ok, doll?" I nodded before turning towards him.

"I feel really hot." He nodded before he reached over, turning the car on and turning the AC on.

"I think you should get some sleep when we get back home. Then we'll talk. Ok?" I nodded before turning the other way. I felt him kiss my cheek before he shut the door.

The cool air blew on my face which made me shiver a little but I was grateful for it. I was burning up. My skin felt hot and my head was pounding.

I shifted in my seat before I slowly drifted off to sleep.

DUN DUN DUN!

Seems Willow's perfect family ain't so perfect. I wonder who else in her family has issues?

Hope everyone has had a WONDERFUL day and has an even better one tomorrow!

With love and kisses ~ Ava Wilson😘🫶🏾
