Irresistible Stepbrother
CHAPTER 7: Now I Know
As we arrived home I ran upstairs into my bedroom; not doubting to look back. Harry was following me. I made it to my bedroom “Val-“ I slammed the door right in his face.
“Val open the door…I’m sorry…let’s talk” Harry said
I swiped my ear phones off the dresser and climbed into bed. I slid under the covers and placed the earphones in my ear fastly; trying to isolate Harry’s voice.
“Listen…Val…I didn’t mean to….just your…and I just want”
My music cut him off as heartbreak girl by 5SOS boomed threw my ears.
“You call me up. It’s like a broken record. You
Say that your heart hurt and you’ll never get over
Him, getting over you. And you end up crying
And I end up lying; cuz I’m just sucker for anything
That you do”
I slowly take one ear bud out. I didn’t hear anything so I guess Harry went back into his room. I slipped my ear phone back in and went to sleep.

I woke up to Ed Sheeran Give me love flowing through my ears. I take my earphones out my ear giving them a rest. I rolled over and check the clock on the dresser it was *10:17* I rolled back over and closed my eyes. I guess I could get a little more sleep. Just as my eyes closed, my bedroom door squeaked open. I didn’t even glance in that direction because I already knew who it was. “Valentina?”
I held my ground and stayed exactly where I was. I could feel a dip in the bed as he sat on the edge behind me. “Listen Val are you awake?” I still didn’t respond.
“Good she’s not awake yet” I could feel him come around to my side of the bed. I quickly closed my eyes. He came and sat on the edge of the bed by my legs.
Even though my eyes were closed, I could feel his eyes captivating my face. He shook me a few times to make sure I was asleep. “Listen Val…I’m sorry for…um kissing you yesterday, it’s just. Haaaaa where do I beg…ya know….
I remember seeing this girl inside the mall….You know when I lived in Chesire, and my dad didn’t meet your mom yet. It’s funny because all the girly girls were at Claire’s or Victoria secret. But no….there was this one girl…this one beautiful girl that was in Game stop.
I walked over to collect the game…you know I wanted and she didn’t even notice me. Didn’t even glance over, and in that moment I knew that I wanted her. If I want something I….I got
to have it. I’ve been that way since I was a kid.
What does this story have to do with him kissing me?!
Her hair was in a messy bun which means that she was care free. She was in soccer sweats, which fit her mighty fine. She had on a T that said “Hipsta please”. She turned around to walk away and in that instant. She finally looked at me, and our eyes connected like we were the only people in the world. She broke our connection and went to pay for her stuff and she was gone like that. I remember going back to the mall every Saturday at the exact time, to see if I could at least have enough balls to talk to her.
Ha-ha-ha but…she never came back. So I forgot about her and moved on with my life. But then there she was again….. hugging my dad and calling him Stepfather. So what was I supposed to do? Nothing. Cuz I knew that I would never have a chance with her now”
I could feel him get up from the bed. He leaned down and kissed me on the forehead “Sweet dreams…..sis”.
I heard the door close. I hurried and sat up…”Does this mean….”
Do I even remember that? I remember going inside the place but…..wow!
For some reason deep in my stomach I didn’t feel so bad about kissing him now. But oh god! That beautiful creature could have been my boyfriend! Why….why mom why did you have to marry larry?!!!
I threw myself back against the covers. What do I do now? How am I supposed to act around him? Maybe I should just act myself…..act like I never heard what he said.
Feeling relieved with my game plan, I got up and headed on down stairs. I could smell the waffles and eggs circling through the air and pass my nose.
I sat down at the table with Larry. He was reading the newspaper waiting on mom to finish up the eggs. I sat there going through my phone, trying to get my mind off of what happened this morning.
“Hey Larry”
He removed his eyes from the paper, directing them to me. “You know love you can call me dad….or stepfather…or dad?”
I smiled “Okay “dad”” he put his newspaper down and took a sip of coffee. “Um, when you guys lived in Chestier…..did Harry often go to the mall?”
He stared at me quizzically “Um….I never really—Wait yeah…yeah he did. He went like every Saturday or Friday I can’t remember. Why ya ask?”
My face froze. –Excuse! Excuse! Excuse!—“I just wanted to know…..I just want to get to know him better ya know. Get to know what he does outside of school.” I faked a smile.
Mom came over putting a plate full of eggs and waffles in front of Larry.
“Why like….did he go to the mall?”
He was now staring at me out of pure curiosity. “Well Val….um…I think to get different types of games….from game go or game stomp. I can’t remember.”
I smiled down at my thumbs –Game stop!—“But the funny thing is….” he interrupted my thoughts and took another bite of eggs. “He stopped going. Just out of the blue, one minute he’s anguish to get to the mall then the next thing you know he just completely forgot about it. And then that’s when I met you’re mother and I guess he got caught up with the moving and packing”
I stared off into the distance. How could I not have noticed someone like him? How is this possible? This is spinning too much out of control!
“Are you hungry sweetie” I snapped out of my thinking mode “Huh?”
“Are you hungry” mom repeated, while turning to look at me for a response “N-no I’m fine” I waved my hand nonchalant.

Harry’s P.O.V
I ran over and hopped on my bed burying my face in the pillows. “Uggghhhhh”. I sat up on the bed, slipping in suspense. I just wish now that…..I could actually tell her that….to her face!
My phone buzzed; I slid of my bed and walked over to my dresser. I unlocked the screen to see Shelby’s name pop up. I slid the button over and clicked on the message.
Shelby <3:
We need to talk….can you come to the beach?
What?!....did she find out about me…kissing Val?
Um…yeah
Before I could start towards my shoes she text me.
Let’s meet at the beach, the sunset’s beautiful today!
Okay Shell
I continued to slip on my sneaks; slipping my phone into my pocket. I slipped on a muscle T and some shorts and headed for down stairs.
“Val open the door…I’m sorry…let’s talk” Harry said
I swiped my ear phones off the dresser and climbed into bed. I slid under the covers and placed the earphones in my ear fastly; trying to isolate Harry’s voice.
“Listen…Val…I didn’t mean to….just your…and I just want”
