Twinsequences (A Twisted Twin Series) (13 page)

We
 made
 love
 for
 hours,
 taking
 breaks
 when
 we
 became
 out
 of
 breath
 and
 
going
 back
 at
 it
 after
 resting.
 We
 couldn’t
 get
 enough
 of
 each
 other
 and
 I
 think
 we
 
both
 knew
 that
 as
 long
 as
 we
 were
 making
 love,
 we
 didn’t
 have
 to
 worry
 about
 
anything
 else.
 
 
There
 would
 be
 consequences
 for
 what
 she’d
 done
 to
 us.
 
I
 was
 ready
 for
 them.
 
I
 think
 we
 both
 were.
 
 
 
 
Chapter
 8
 
You
 were
 my
 idol.
 I
 wish
 you
 were
 dead.
 
 
I’m
 not
 sure
 exactly
 what
 time
 it
 was.
 I
 woke
 up
 wrapped
 in
 a
 blanket,
 in
 
Stosh’s
 arms,
 on
 the
 floor
 of
 the
 boat.
 The
 wind
 was
 brisk
 and
 the
 once
 calm
 waters
 
were
 a
 bit
 more
 rough.
 I
 sat
 up
 and
 looked
 around,
 before
 standing
 up
 and
 going
 
beneath
 to
 use
 the
 bathroom.
 
 
I
 hadn’t
 meant
 to
 stop
 in
 the
 bedroom,
 but
 I
 wanted
 to
 grab
 our
 pillows.
 I
 
made
 it
 halfway
 to
 the
 door
 when
 I
 tripped
 over
 the
 diary.
 My
 stomach
 dropped
 
when
 I
 thought
 about
 the
 things
 my
 sister
 had
 said
 and
 done
 to
 me.
 I
 felt
 betrayed
 in
 
the
 worst
 way.
 
 
This
 was
 someone
 that
 I
 would
 have
 given
 my
 life
 for.
 I’d
 given
 her
 an
 organ
 
if
 she
 needed
 it.
 I
 would
 have
 done
 anything
 for
 her.
 
How
 could
 she
 hate
 me
 the
 way
 she
 did?
 How
 could
 she
 want
 to
 sabotage
 my
 
life?
 Who
 does
 something
 like
 that?
 Who
 did
 she
 think
 she
 was,
 playing
 God
 like
 she
 
was
 allowed
 to?
 
I
 didn’t
 even
 know
 her.
 
I
 certainly
 didn’t
 like
 her.
 
 
I
 picked
 up
 the
 little
 book
 and
 opened
 it
 where
 I
 left
 off.
 
 
 
May

^th
 
Prom
 day
 baby!
 I
 am
 so
 excited.
 There
 is
 a
 killer
 party
 tonight.
 Stoshua
 won’t
 
know
 what
 hit
 him
 when
 he
 wakes
 up
 tomorrow.
 Everything
 is
 going
 as
 planned.
 Soon,
 
everyone
 will
 think
 the
 baby
 I’m
 carrying
 is
 his.
 It
 will
 not
 only
 destroy
 my
 sister,
 but
 it
 
will
 kill
 my
 parents.
 This
 couldn’t
 have
 worked
 out
 better.
 
 
 
I
 put
 my
 hand
 over
 my
 mouth,
 because
 her
 world
 started
 to
 nauseate
 me.
 
 
I
 couldn’t
 stop
 reading.
 
 
May

^th
 
Just
 got
 home
 from
 a
 night
 I
 won’t
 forget.
 
 
I
 could
 tell
 Stoshua
 hated
 himself
 when
 he
 woke
 up
 next
 to
 me.
 That
 poor
 guy
 
didn’t
 even
 realize
 that
 nothing
 happened
 between
 us.
 He
 believed
 every
 word
 out
 of
 
my
 mouth.
 What
 a
 loser!
 
Soon,
 I
 can
 tell
 the
 family
 that
 the
 child
 I’m
 carrying
 is
 his.
 I
 can’t
 wait
 to
 give
 
them
 the
 horrible
 news.
 
It
 will
 be
 the
 best
 day
 of
 my
 life.
 
 
June

^th
 
We
 graduated!
 
 
Yay
 me!
 
I
 won’t
 have
 to
 share
 the
 car
 anymore,
 because
 my
 dad
 is
 planning
 on
 getting
 
the
 princess
 a
 new
 one.
 She
 still
 thinks
 she
 wants
 to
 stay
 home.
 I
 can
 see
 it
 on
 her
 face
 
when
 she
 looks
 at
 me.
 She
 hates
 that
 I
 had
 him
 and
 she
 didn’t.
 Little
 does
 she
 know,
 
that
 I
 didn’t
 even
 want
 him.
 
Her
 little
 pathetic
 pity
 party
 is
 about
 to
 begin.
 I
 can’t
 wait
 to
 watch
 her
 fall
 off
 
her
 pedestal.
 
 
 
June
 20
^th
 
I
 couldn’t
 wait
 any
 longer.
 They
 all
 know.
 
 
Fake
 baby
 daddy
 told
 his
 parents.
 He
 wants
 to
 do
 the
 right
 thing
 by
 me.
 
 
I
 got
 my
 ticket
 out
 of
 here
 and
 I
 couldn’t
 be
 happier.
 
 
He’s
 going
 to
 take
 care
 of
 me
 and
 the
 baby,
 while
 we
 stay
 home
 and
 pretend
 to
 
like
 him.
 He
 never
 has
 to
 know
 the
 baby
 isn’t
 his.
 
 
My
 sister
 is
 a
 mess.
 I
 heard
 her
 crying
 again.
 I
 think
 she
 may
 have
 thrown
 up.
 I
 
stayed
 on
 the
 other
 side
 of
 the
 door
 smiling
 the
 whole
 time.
 
 
She’s
 finally
 in
 Hell,
 where
 she
 belongs.
 
 
June
 22
th
 
Willow
 is
 leaving
 town.
 She
 made
 the
 announcement
 to
 me
 in
 private,
 but
 I
 
made
 sure
 to
 pass
 it
 along
 to
 Stoshua.
 He
 seemed
 equally
 upset.
 He’s
 even
 been
 
drinking.
 I
 guess
 he’s
 trying
 to
 numb
 the
 pain
 of
 losing
 his
 chance
 with
 her.
 They’ll
 
never
 be
 together
 now.
 That
 makes
 me
 so
 happy.
 
 
July
 2
^nd
 
I
 got
 married
 today.
 
It
 wasn’t
 perfect
 or
 even
 what
 I’d
 imagined.
 My
 ass
 looks
 fat
 and
 I
 can’t
 stand
 
Stoshua’s
 cologne.
 He
 keeps
 telling
 me
 that
 he’ll
 try
 to
 be
 a
 good
 husband.
 He
 
apologizes
 for
 loving
 her.
 The
 irony
 in
 that
 is
 fantastic.
 
 
July
 14
th
 
Willow’s
 gone!
 She’s
 gone
 off
 to
 school
 and
 to
 start
 her
 new
 life.
 I
 pretended
 to
 
be
 sad,
 but
 I
 was
 partying
 inside.
 
 
 
August
 27
^th
 
Last
 night
 I
 had
 a
 miscarriage.
 
 
Stoshua
 stayed
 by
 my
 side.
 
He
 seemed
 broken
 up
 about
 it.
 
My
 parents
 came
 to
 the
 hospital,
 but
 the
 princess
 never
 showed.
 I
 thought
 she’d
 
come,
 but
 she
 never
 did.
 
 
I
 feel
 alone.
 I’m
 stuck
 in
 a
 marriage
 with
 someone
 I
 loathe.
 He’s
 my
 only
 way
 
out,
 though.
 I
 can’t
 go
 back
 to
 that
 house.
 I’ll
 never
 go
 back!
 I
 guess
 I
 need
 to
 pretend
 
to
 love
 this
 guy
 and
 get
 knocked
 up
 again.
 The
 sooner
 the
 better.
 
 
I
 heard
 Stosh
 clearing
 his
 voice
 and
 looked
 up
 to
 see
 him
 leaning
 against
 the
 
doorway.
 He
 was
 completely
 naked
 with
 a
 concerned
 look
 on
 his
 face.
 “I
 thought
 we
 
agreed
 to
 not
 deal
 with
 this
 shit
 until
 tomorrow?”
 
I
 tossed
 the
 book
 to
 the
 side
 with
 shaky
 hands.
 “I
 couldn’t
 help
 it.
 I
 had
 to
 
know.”
 
I
 thought
 about
 how
 he
 felt
 when
 he
 read
 that
 he’d
 never
 slept
 with
 her.
 
 
“How
 far
 did
 you
 get?”
 He
 sat
 down
 on
 the
 bed
 next
 to
 me.
 
“The
 miscarriage.”
 
He
 laughed
 and
 shook
 his
 head.
 “Yeah,
 the
 jokes
 on
 me!
 I
 can’t
 believe
 it.
 I
 feel
 
like
 a
 fucking
 fool,
 Will.
 I
 knew
 I
 wouldn’t
 have
 slept
 with
 her.”
 
 
I
 grabbed
 his
 hand
 and
 traced
 the
 palm
 with
 my
 fingertips.
 “She
 needs
 to
 pay
 
for
 this.”
 
“Don’t
 stoop
 to
 her
 level.
 You’re
 not
 that
 person,
 Willow.”
 
“I,
 at
 least,
 need
 to
 tell
 my
 parents.
 They
 should
 know
 what
 she’s
 capable
 of.
 
If
 she
 has
 this
 much
 animosity
 towards
 me,
 I
 can’t
 imagine
 what
 she’s
 planning
 on
 
doing
 to
 them.
 They
 don’t
 deserve
 it
 either.”
 
He
 played
 with
 my
 hand,
 before
 looking
 right
 at
 me.
 “Let
 me
 ask
 you
 
something.
 She
 writes
 about
 things
 she
 overheard
 your
 parents
 saying.
 Is
 there
 a
 
chance
 that
 maybe
 they
 treated
 you
 differently?”
 
I
 shrugged.
 “I
 guess
 she
 could
 have
 perceived
 it
 that
 way.
 I
 mean,
 I
 always
 got
 
praise
 for
 my
 hard
 work,
 but
 it
 was
 only
 so
 that
 I
 would
 continue
 to
 do
 well.
 I
 think
 
they
 did
 it
 to
 make
 her
 try
 harder.
 They’d
 never
 pick
 favorites
 like
 she’s
 saying.
 It’s
 
ridiculous.”
 
I
 didn’t
 know
 the
 person
 that
 had
 wrote
 in
 that
 diary.
 She
 wasn’t
 the
 sister
 
that
 I’d
 loved
 since
 birth.
 
 
“We
 need
 to
 head
 back
 today.”
 
I
 nodded.
 “Okay.
 I
 know
 you
 have
 to
 get
 back
 to
 work.”
 
He
 smiled
 and
 leaned
 over
 to
 kiss
 me
 slowly
 on
 the
 lips.
 “I
 don’t
 want
 to
 go
 
anywhere,
 but
 the
 longer
 this
 goes
 on,
 the
 worse
 it’s
 going
 to
 get.
 She’s
 up
 to
 
something.
 She
 wouldn’t
 have
 gone
 to
 extremes
 to
 get
 you
 here
 if
 she
 weren’t.
 We
 
need
 to
 be
 prepared,
 Willow.”
 
“For
 what?
 What
 can
 she
 possibly
 do
 to
 us?”
 I
 didn’t
 understand.
 I
 got
 that
 
they
 had
 to
 get
 a
 divorce,
 but
 what
 wasn’t
 he
 telling
 me?
 
“Willow,
 I’ve
 been
 married
 to
 your
 sister
 for
 four
 years.
 At
 first
 it
 was
 just
 an
 
arrangement,
 but
 at
 some
 point,
 before
 I
 knew
 what
 she’d
 done,
 we
 tried
 to
 build
 a
 
relationship.
 We…we
 did
 what
 married
 people
 do.”
 He
 looked
 so
 disappointed
 in
 
himself.
 
“Stosh,
 I
 know.
 I
 don’t
 hate
 you
 for
 that.
 You
 did
 what
 you
 thought
 was
 the
 
right
 thing.”
 Just
 the
 thought
 of
 him
 being
 intimate
 with
 her
 made
 me
 cringe.
 It
 
wasn’t
 anything
 new.
 I’d
 thought
 they
 were
 together
 after
 Prom.
 For
 some
 reason
 
this
 was
 a
 little
 easier
 to
 take.
 “It
 doesn’t
 change
 the
 way
 I
 feel
 about
 you.
 I’ve
 been
 
with
 other
 people,
 too.
 If
 we’re
 going
 to
 be
 together,
 we
 need
 to
 live
 for
 the
 future
 
and
 leave
 the
 past
 behind
 us.”
 
He
 stood
 up
 and
 started
 walking
 around
 the
 room,
 scratching
 his
 head.
 “I
 
want
 to
 be
 with
 you.
 I
 just
 don’t
 see
 it
 being
 easy.
 Have
 you
 even
 considered
 what
 
our
 parents
 are
 going
 to
 say?
 Ivy
 will
 make
 them
 all
 hate
 us.
 Are
 you
 willing
 to
 give
 
up
 your
 parents
 to
 be
 with
 me?”
