Everything I Didn't Say

"I know you remember me." Adeline mumbled. I sit down on the couch, letting her think I didn't hear what she said.

"Wine or vodka?" I ask instead, confusing the crap out of her. "Do you wanna get drunk tonight or no?"

"Luke?" Ashton suspiciously asks.

"Mum and dad's not home tonight." I tell him, then turn back to Addy. "You wanna know why I've always been so mean to you?" She nods. "Wine or vodka?"

"Vodka." She nods. Just like I thought. I know how to play her, but she doesn't know that. This is all part of my plan.

I grab a few glasses and sit them in front of her. She take the first shot, cringing as it goes down. I carefully watch her chug, shots after shots, never taking my eyes off of her beautiful face. "Y-you need to tell me what you were going to tell me b-before I don't remember it." Addy slurs.

I figure she wont be able to remember this in the morning this is part of my plan. Look at it like I'm telling her without telling her. "Right so. Remember when we were in high school?" Of course she does, Luke. "I bullied you for a reason, Adeline. At first it started as a crush. That's why I would push you in the hallway or steal your things. Then as we got older, you got prettier, beautiful. All the guys wanted you. I wanted you. But you already seen me as a bully, and would never go for me. Seeing you with other people hurt, Addy. And I know it's my fault, that I shouldn't have taken the bulling so far, but it hurt so bad. My first thought was to make nobody want you but me, so I spread those harsh rumors, and took the bulling to a physical level. Now as I'm sitting here I know what I did was wrong. Maybe if I was nicer to you, you would've gone for me. I can't express how sorry I. I'm going to be better, and make your family know I'm a good guy. I'm telling you this while your drunk so that, maybe you'll look the awful part of me, and give me a chance. Be the girl I fell in love with in high school. laugh at my jokes, and tell me you love me. Addy I love you."

"Your..stupid." Adeline slurs again, giggling. I smirk at her, picking her up in bridle style.

"Mrs. Anderson?" I call in the house.

"Luke- Oh my was she drinking?" Rose says full of concern.

I nod. "Yeah I'll bring her upstairs."

I place Adeline softly on the bed, wishing I could lay down with her and sleep with her in my arms. "Goodnight Addy. Maybe one day you'll forgive me. Maybe one day."
