Accidents Happen

Chapter 16

"...What do you say?"

I chewed on the inside of my cheek as I awaited an answer from him. He finally turned to look at me, "But what about you? I'm still going to be your brother right?"

I smiled at him, "Of course you will. We'll probably see even more of each other this way than before."

Bodhi stayed quiet for a second until he asked another question, "But who's going to take care of you?"

I chuckled lightly, "Kenny has been doing a pretty good job with that. Nothing will really change, my man. Your last name will still be the same as mine, Kris will just be your legal guardian until you're eighteen. So does that sound good to you?"

I watched my brother sway slightly back and forth until he looked at me again, "I think I'll like that a lot. I missed seeing everyone everyday."

I smiled wide and got off my swing to start pushing him. We spent an hour at the park until we decided it was best to head home. I'm just glad this talk was easier than I thought it was going to be.

It had been about four months since my mother had passed away. Bodhi went back to school and surprisingly enough you got a couple of photoshoots booked. I thought it was over but some people still saw all the potential I still had.

They started filming for their show again but lucky for me Kenny wasn't on it all that much so I didn't have to be on it much either. I didn't mind it so much I just like my privacy sometimes. Bodhi loved it, however. He told me that he's the most popular kid in his fourth grade class. He's become really good friends with one of the cameramen, Kris told me. I'm glad that he's enjoying himself there.

It's November and Kendall's birthday is coming up. She was turning 21 after all so she wanted to have a party with all of her good friends and family. She also wanted to have a little vacation with the whole family just to get a break from everything. I was totally ready for some down time. Kris said that the only thing was that because we were going on vacation, the camera crew had to come along with us.

It was the week before her birthday and we were all going to Hawaii to spend some time on the beach together. I was excited to get a full week of family time. We hadn't been able to all get together to relax in a long while. The plane ride there wasn't so bad. We were on the plane with Kourtney, Scott, Kim, Kanye, and all the kids. Watching the kids play was interesting to say the least.

Once we landed, we went to the beach house we were renting for the week to unpack before heading to the beach for the day. Kendall and I got a room to ourselves with doors that opened up to the beach beside us. We were both pretty excited about that. After unpacking, we decided to head out to the beach.

Kendall and I changed into our swimsuits but before I walked out, I felt her hands touch my back. I turned around to look at her, "What?"

"This is the first time anyone besides me is going to see your scars. It won't just be family either, the camera crew is here and I'm sure everyone who watches the show will see. Are you okay with that?"

I chuckled lightly, "Are you okay with that?"

She smiled and shrugged, "Yeah, I just liked being the only one who could see that side of you."

I kissed her cheek as I moved my hands to her bare sides. I pulled her close and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, babe. There's still plenty of me that no one else will get to see besides you."

When I lifted my head back up to look at her she was blushing and her bottom lip was between her teeth. I chuckled and took her hand as we walked out the doors to the beach. We were the first ones out so we sat down on the sand and waited for everyone else before getting into the water.
