Chance's Secrets

Chapter Seventeen

From the ride to the airport, on the flight, and home, I was in Chance's arms. I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. He never let go unless he had to. I guess the short amount of time we were apart killed him too. Nevertheless, I was happy again and I felt safe. 

"Paisley, is that you?" Kasey called from the kitchen. I walked in in front of Chance and gave her a shy smile. Of course they were upset. I randomly freaked and left. They had every right to be mad. I didn't tell them where I went, nor did I pick up any of their calls or texts.

"I'm so sorry. I went a little crazy. But. I did get my love back." I smiled back at Chance. He had put our bags by the stairs and was walking towards us. He smiled back, wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing my cheek.

"So. You went after him, huh? That is adorable. No hard feelings babe, I would have done the same thing." She smiled. She pulled us into the living room where everyone was at. With a few other people as well.

Cory sat on the single chair beside the couch, which Kasey then sat on his lap. Colby was sitting on the couch with the girl from the party we went to. Flynn had a girl with him to. She was on his lap while they sat on the couch beside Colby. Wait a second..

"Amy?" I coughed. Well, more like choked. My innocent baby cousin was sitting on Flynn. The jerk who cheated on me, and was also a little whore. I didn't want her getting hurt. She was precious and deserved way better.

"Paisley!" She smiled. She got up off of Flynn and wrapped me in a hug. Of course, I hugged her back. She was my baby cousin. I never see her, but she needs to be happy.

"Can I talk to you for a second, in the kitchen?" I asked her, eyeing Flynn. He rolled his eyes, giving me an are-you-serious look. She nodded and followed me in there. She sat at the table and I sat across from her.

"Listen. You're my baby cousin and I love you to death. Family is family. But I'm going to be straight with you. Flynn. I'm not sure how he is with you but-." She cut me off. Her eyes had this tired look as if she'd heard this before.

"What does that even mean? He's amazing. I don't care if he screwed you over, but he isn't that way with me. He told me he made mistakes in the past, but he regrets them. I'm so sorry that he was an jerk to you, but you seem extremely happy with Chance. I know you're only caring for me, but please just step back. I love you, but please let me do this. We've been talking for a while now. I know what I'm going into. Let me make my own mistakes. I won't know unless I try. Okay?" Amy spilled. My mind was blown. My innocent little cousin just ripped up one side and down the other. I was honestly speechless. 

"Okay." Was all I said. 

Chance and I went to my room, laying on my bed. Chance was laid back against the head board and I was laying with my head on his chest. I had an arm draped over his torso and his arm was around my waist, our feet tangled. There wasn't much conversation, just laying there in silence. It was nice, honestly. I'm over dramatic, yes, but I hated being away from him. It wasn't long, I know, but it made my heart ache. He was literally all I had around anymore. I still had family, but they aren't around. Chance was.

"Babe. Do you want to do something tonight? Something fun?" Chance broke the silence. The thought of fun thrilled me. I was actually bored and doing something, anything, sounded amazing. I looked up at my gorgeous love, smiling.

"I would love to! I'm so excited!" I laughed. He gave me a toothy grin, leaning down to kiss me. We didn't get into the kiss, the kiss just lingered a bit. It was a sweet kiss, yet the love and passion behind it was so strong. I knew I'd found the one.

"Well. It's around five right now. We can leave in an hour. It won't really be a surprise, it's just something fun. I figured this time won't end in tears and misery." He laughed. I wrinkled my eyebrows in confusion, but I smiled nonetheless. "Be ready in an hour, okay?"
