Princess
LESLIE'S POV
I pretended like it didn’t hurt.
The days started to bleed into each other. I suddenly missed sharing a room with my step brother, I missed his cocky smile and I still missed how he showed up at my school dripping in quiet luxury. I missed the way his hands felt around me and the way his kiss lit me on fire.
But, I also couldn’t forgive him for toying with my feelings and leaving without a word.
Days after he left, hours even, I would check my phone hoping that he’d gotten my number from his dad and texted me. I would even accept an ‘I’m sorry.’ I got no word, just silence. I didn’t bother getting his number either.
Brandon told me Wade had returned back to college for his finals. I probably wouldn’t see him again in months.
We moved into the new house two days after he left. Ilyssa and Tamara have been over multiple times. I think it's mostly because we have a pool and it's starting to get a little hot.
I’ve even started attending galas with Brandon as family.
