Change Of Life by Me :) (fastest ebook reader .txt) 📖

talk seriously instead of sitting in the living room on the couch and the vibe would be different.

All eyes were on me from the moment I walked into the room, all the way until I sat down in the empty seat that would create a full rectangle between us four.

[: Finally decided to take out my old crappy laptop to post a new update that has been sitting in my computer for a while now, sorry... Hope you liked it, comment and favorite what you thought (good/bad) and I'll update soon! xx :] 

Chapter 9: If there is one person who does not agree with the decision made, we cancel and start over again.

It was awkwardly quiet. No one knew where to start, how to start or who was going to start. I glanced over at Liam and he glanced over to me. I tried to not make any eye contact with mom. I'm still not ready for this. I just wanna disappear.

“Kayla, honey?” mom starts off breaking the silence, “You can start if you like, Christopher and I have a few things planned for how this is going to work but you can say whatever you like.”

“Okay, mom. Hold up. You're telling me, that you got off and got engaged, you got pregnant, and you planned a whole future with this guy, no offense Chris, and you didn't bother to mention any of it to me beforehand? Is that it? Is that what is happening right now, mom? Is it?” I replied ranting on. Well, I guess I did know how to start, and I definitely broke that silence, fast.

“Honey, I know I should have told you earlier-” she started saying.

“Damn right, you should've.” I cut her off, pissed.

“But, I didn't know how. I mean, how is a mother supposed to tell her own daughter that she's in love with another man who is not her father and she's gonna have a younger brother or sister that won't be on her father's side but only on her mother's.”

“Dad has been gone for a long time, mom. That is no excuse. I have seen you with other men, a lot of them. So, stop searching for excuses and give me a real reason for me to forgive you for this.” I say trying to stay calm.

“I'm sorry, honey. I was just scared at how you would react.” she says and takes a glance over at Chris.

“Still not a reason but we're going to move on. What the hell is gonna happen around here? Where are we gonna live?” I ask.

“Well, your mother and I thought about buying a new place. We've already started searching and no worries, everyone will get there own room and bathroom.” Chris explained.

“But what about school? How far are we gonna move? You just expect us to pack all our stuff and leave, just like that?” Liam temper starts to slowly rise as he asks each of these questions to his dad.

“We won't go to far. But, one of you will have to switch schools, either Kayla goes to your school and we move closer to that area or you go to Kayla's school and we'll find a place to move towards here.” Chris explains. I looked straight at Liam and him at me. He knows that I don't wanna change schools but I don't want him to switch just because of me. I don't wanna be the spoiled brat who gets whatever she wants in this house.

“I'll switch.” Liam says still looking at me. I stare into him giving him a you-don't-have-to-do-that-for-me look and he nods slightly and looks back at his father.

“Okay then, it's settled.” Chris says, “We shall continue looking for a place and we'll check them out. If we find anything that seems good, we'll let you guys know and we'll go see it together. The final decision must be agreed with everyone. If there is one person who does not agree with the decision made, we cancel and start over again.”

“Well, I agree with that.” I say and stand up.

“Okay, me too then.” Liam says and joins me standing.

“Then, that's it.” Chris says, “Liam, let's go home.”

“Okay, I'll meet you outside, just need to grab my jacket. I think it's upstairs.” Liam says and starts to go up the stairs.

“One sec, let me come with you.” I say and jump after him. We get into my room and I sit on my bed. “So, you're gonna go now?” I ask him secretly wanting to shout "Stay with me!"

“Yeah, is that okay? Are you gonna be okay?” he asks me as he sits next to me on the bed.

“Yeah, I'll be fine. I have stuff to take care of anyways.” I say and he gets up. “But, uh, thanks for offering to switch schools for me...” I say softly.

“No problem, Anastasia.” he says with a smirk and kisses my jawline.

“I'm seriously gonna murder you in your sleep. You better watch out!” I barked but he was already out the door.

Chapter 10: It's gonna take a whole bitch load more than an “I'm sorry” and some donuts

 

Monday morning. Last night was kind of awkwardly silent around the house, apart from me blasting music so mom wouldn't bother me and me making up an excuse so that I wouldn't have to eat at the dinner table.

I got out of bed and went straight into the shower. I still hadn't talked to Jess since Cooper's party, I mean, I had bigger things going on. I'm not really looking forward to this event of the day, but it has to happen, eventually.

Once I was out of the shower and moisturized, I slipped on some tights and distressed jean shorts along with a cropped sweater. As I was applying my make up and fixing up my hair, I had so much on my mind, so many thoughts, just flying around, like a tight space full of thousands of bouncy balls that are actually deadly lava rocks.

I could hear mom downstairs making breakfast, waiting for me, she's usually still  asleep at this time or almost out the door. I decided that I really didn't want to walk into school alone, so I messaged someone, Cooper. I don't know if it was a good idea, maybe he'll start thinking that I'm leading him on.

I just asked if he could drive me to school today, no big deal, right? He replied within seconds saying that he'd be here in 20 minutes. I finished getting ready, slipped on my shoes, grabbed my bag and my phone and ran downstairs.

“Hey, honey, I made you some pancakes with some fresh blueberries.” mom said as I came into sight.

“Sorry, someone's already waiting for me outside, I gotta go.” I lied, “Invite Chris over and eat with him if you like, or eat everything since your eating for two anyways.” I say as I grab an apple on the way out the door.

“Okay, have a good day, sweetie!” my mom tried to yell before the front door slammed shut. Cooper finally drove up to my front gate, I was awkwardly waiting outside the gate, hoping mom wouldn't see me. I jumped into the car and thanked him for coming but yelled at him for being late.

“So, what's up, babe? Why you want me to take you to school? You already got such a beauty of a car.” Cooper starts to ask.

“Uh, do you not remember what happened the last time I saw you?” I replied sassy and slightly angered.

“Oh right, of course I remember, but how come you still so caught up in that bullshit, let it go, baby.” he says, and he was probably right.

“Yeah, but-” I started saying but my phone started ringing, it was Liam.

 

Me: Hello?

Liam: Hey there, Anastasia. (he says as I could picture the smirk on his face)

Me: Hey, Liam. And wipe that smirk of your face.

Liam: What?! You stalking me?

Me: Bitch please, you wish.

Liam: Oh, you know I do.

Me: Stop, don't make it weird, well, weirder than it already is.

Liam: Okay, well, I just wanted to check in on how you're doing. You okay?

Me: Yeah, I'm okay. A little mental, a little shock, a little anger, sadness, fear, and more, but overall, I'm okay, I guess.

Liam: Well, send me a message, call me, whenever you need, I'll come over, pick you up, just call.

Me: I will, don't worry. I already have Cooper here driving me to school, so I think I'm good so far. (I smile over to Cooper and he smiles back)

Liam: Who the fuck is Cooper?

Me: The guy who was jealous of you and you were jealous of him.

Liam/Cooper: I was not jealous!

Me: Yeah, you were. (replied to both of them at once)

Liam: Okay, whatever. I'll leave you two alone then.

Me: Okay, see ya.

Liam: See ya, babe.

 

“Who the hell is that guy? And I was- I am so not jealous, just worried- no, curious- no, uh, just wanted to know?” Cooper said slightly panicked about what he was saying, it was cute.

“Hey, calm down...”  I say softly as I gently place my hand on his thigh, “He's a just a guy that I'll be moving in with because my mom is pregnant and getting re-married. Woah, that was totally, a weird and unusual thing to say...”

“So, he's your step- brother.” Cooper concludes my whole phrase.

“Ew. No, we decided to say “roommate” and never say that other word, ever.” I said in disgust of that other word and the thought of using it for Liam.

“Why?” Cooper wondered by our weirdness.

“Uh, awkward and complicated relationship...?” I replied unsure of what to answer, the feeling was just mutual on the use of that word and there was no explanation.

“Uh, okay...” he muttered softly and we arrived to school. I got out the car and got a few looks as people saw me getting out of Cooper's car. I didn't really care, I had more important things happening, for example, what the hell am I going to say once I see Jess, what am I going to do?

Oh fuck, she's there. What do I do? Do I confront her? Right here, right now and get it over with? She hasn't seen me yet, I could easily make a run for it. Uh, um, er, no... I decided to stick to Cooper hoping she wouldn't see me. If she sees me, I will definitely try to stay calm. Fuck, she saw me.

“Hey! Kay! Kayla?” she yelled out to me. I tried to pretend
