Gone

"Soo... are you gonna tell us what you wanted to speak to us all about or just sit there?" Joesph says bringing me from my thoughts.

"Um.. I needed to tell you that.. um.. Im gonna have to go away for awhile" I stutter. "Go where? For how long?" My mother asks confused. "I um... I..." I stutter and Leanne takes my hand in hers. "Do you want me to tell them?" She asks softly seeing my nervousness and I nod. "Michael, if you've knocked her up. I Swear to God I'm gonna..."

"No no it's nothing like that" she cuts Joesph off. "Then what?" Mother asks getting annoyed and she sighs taking a deep breath. "Michael is addicted to pain killers and..."

"WHAT!!?" Joesph yells cutting her off. "But, I'm gonna go into rehab" I quickly cut in. "Michael, how could you do this? After everything we all went through to get you off them the last time?" Janet sighs disappointed. "I never actually came off them" I mumble. "I just told you I went into rehab so you'd all get off by back and..."

"ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS!!?" Joesph yells. "I really am gonna get help this time. I swear"

"Yeah right?" He scoffs "after everything we've done for you and.."

"But he's definitely going this time.. aren't you?" Mother cuts in and I nod. "I'm gonna drive him there and makes sure he goes in this time" Randy cuts in. "You knew about this!?" Joesph snaps at him and he nods "but, the main this is he's getting help this time" mother cuts in again trying to keep the piece. "Leanne can stay with us while your there and.."

"Actually she's gonna be staying with me" Randy cuts her off. "She's staying with us. No arguments" Joesph says sternly and me, Leanne and Randy nod, not wanting him to get pissed and start yelling again.

After the initial shock and Joesph and everyone flipping out at me. Thing's calmed down and everybody actually started being supportive. Im really glad Leanne was with me and convinced me to tell my family what was going on. I had no intention of doing so and just lying about where I was gonna go, but Leanne told me that lying would only have made things harder in the long run, which as always she's right about and I'm glad I listened to her because now I feel like a huge weight has been lifted and I feel alot better about going to rehab now.

While my mother is cooking something to eat before I leave, I go upstairs into the spare room so I could have sometime to calm myself before I leave and I hear a light tap on the door.

"Is it ok to come in?" Leanne asks softly and "of course" I smile inviting her to come and join me at the edge of the bed. "How are you feeling?" She asks sitting beside me. "I feel alot better now they all know. I still don't wanna leave you though" I tell her truthfully. "You'll be ok and I'll be right here waiting for you... I'm really proud of you for telling them. You were really brave" she smiles through pursed lips gives me a cuddle and I smile back the same way. "I'm gonna miss our cuddles" I confess pulling her in a little tighter. "Me too" she says resting her head on my chest and I start thinking about what Janet said to me last night. "What's wrong?" She asks lifting her head up and I don't say anything for a moment then sigh taking a deep breath. "I have to tell you something before I leave. I wanted to tell you before but..." I pause and look at her nervously. "I love you" I quickly blurt out the bite my lower lip nervously scared of what she's going to say. "I love you too" she smiles "y-you do!?" I stutter and she nods. "I been to scared to tell you in case you didn't love me back and..."

I crash my lips against hers cutting her off and kiss her deeply the break away slightly. "I love you more than anything" I whisper shakily onto her lips and she presses her lips softly against mine.

Our soft kiss quickly deepens as I lead us both down onto the bed and pull her in close to me and we continue making out then suddenly the door open slightly and we both quickly jump up as my mother walks in.
