Leaving Home -2

1821 Words
  **Amanda's point of view**          The school was finally over and I  headed straight to my car and drove home as fast as I could because I don't wanna meet Mr. Sexy again. As f****d up as it sounds I ignored him the whole day and it hurt me like crazy when I realize that he didn't even bother knowing my name. I should stop thinking that he will want to get to know me after all maybe he was using me for his pleasures at that particular moment or he was bored, I don't know but all I know is that I am overthinking this.     I get home to see black cars with tinted windows. They looked fancy and screamed rich!,  but what are they doing parked in front of my house, only one way to find out I thought to myself. I unlocked the door with my keys and saw Eugene with his head bowed standing in the middle of huge tall men and by their looks looked dangerous.   "Amanda you are home early," he said with his head up that is when I saw tears in his eyes and I got a bad feeling " Who are they Eugene and what are they doing in our house?" clearly ignoring his statement.  "I have the pleasure to introduce myself as Ryan, your dad's bodyguard and these are my co-workers, on your right is Alex, Nathan, and Tyler and on your left is Lucas, Sean, and  Cole" I turned to look at each and everyone and that is when I saw Mr. Sexy standing there with his head bowed like all the rest. I don't know why they are showing me such respect all I cared about was why Eugene had tears in his eyes and why looked soo sad. I had a lot of questions and I am sure my facial expressions gave it all away because Eugene asked if we could sit down and talk properly. I know something bad is gonna happen and I am soo scared.   "We work for Mr. Smith and I am sure you already know who he is," Ryan asked me with a face that irritated me. "No, I am not Albert Einstein to know which Mr. Smith you talking about.  I only know three people that go by the name Smith,   Will Smith, and the well-known mafia boss that owns half of Los Angeles and my good of nothing dad who left me" I said truthfully. They all looked surprised well apart from Eugene he was still sad. "What's with the face? Please tell me" I asked Eugene with sad eyes but before Eugene could speak up Ryan opened his mouth "Well, we work for Mr. Smith the one who owns half of LA and he's also your dad. To cut to the chase, we are here for you and there's no time to explain anything" without waiting for me to say anything he ordered  Lucas and Alex to go to my room and pack only important stuff and that the rest will be bought over there for me,  he ended his order with a smug look on his face. I was soo surprised that I couldn't even utter a word. I looked at Eugene pleading with him to tell them to stop but he continued looking down. I was sad but then my mood took a complete 360-degree turn to be angry. I was angry that Eugene was doing nothing just sitting there with his head in his palm looking down. I can't believe he was giving up on me this easily. Was this the punishment I get from doing the nasty with a stranger and to make matters worse that stranger works for my dad and attends the same high school? OH LORD!! "Eugene please say something,  tell them to stop, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna leave" I pleaded between sobs. He didn't reply and that was the last straw,  " FINE!, YOU ARE TIRED OF ME RIGHT??___ I KNEW THIS DAY WILL COME, I KNEW THE WILL BE A DAY WHEN YOU GET TIRED OF ME AND SEND ME TO DAD"  I said rage clear in my voice. I was angry, no even more than angry, I was livid. "I considered you as my only family, my ride or die, my best friend and brother but you have given up on me and it's breaking my heart" I added but this time in a much sadder tone. "We are done packing the things she will need Sir" I overheard Nathan telling Ryan. "We will be waiting for you outside  Ms. Smith,  it's a long road trip from here to LA, so wrap it up because we will be leaving in ten minutes from now" I snapped my head to where Ryan was standing, the smug look on his face which  I noticed was now filled with pity for me. That irked me, I didn't wanna snap at him or anyone here I didn't wanna say anything I didn't mean, and most of all I don't need anyone's pity. I know Eugene loves me a lot and I know there is a reason why he is behaving this way, I loved him and I wanted to let him know that but before I could say anything he turned the other way and walked to his room.  I followed him and knocked on the door for him to unlock it.  "Eugene please open the door one last time, I want to hug you before I go," I said banking on the door. I sat down by the door when I realized he had no intentions of opening up but then again he knows I can be stubborn if I wanted to but I didn't have to wait for long since he eventually came out and we hugged for a long time,  "Listen to me Princess, I love you very much and but you have to go" he broke the silence while hugging me one last time. "But I __" I got cut off by Lucas, it looked like he had noticed the whole show and at that particular moment I didn't give two f***s. "It's time Ms.," he said with his head bowed. I gave Eugene one last hug, it felt nothing like a goodbye hug but more of an 'I will see you soon' hug. It now made sense why they all looked down when talking to me because I am the daughter of the f*****g LA mafia boss.  I hate my dad because he left my family for another woman I don't know why he left us but before mom died she told me to give him a chance and that's why I am practically agreeing to all this s**t. He was never there for me, he didn't even care about me so why now? I admit I don't have friends and I get bullied a lot but I was happy as long as I was with Eugene. I glanced at him for the last time and gave him a little nod which he reciprocated with a smile. 'Here I come life'  I said to myself as I opened the door where they were all waiting for me in the driveway. "I am taking my car like it or not," I said practically to no one in particular. "You can't do that" I hear Ryan say. I was about to lose my s**t but composed myself "I am his daughter, aren't I?? So now you are gonna respect me, do I make myself clear" I said a bit more harshly than I intended to at first. "Yes you are but let Lucas and Tyler accompany you and that's not negotiable".I  rolled my eyes and went to my car.  "I am driving", I turned to see who the voice belonged to and realized it was Tyler. All I could do was nod my head and sit at the back by Lucas. We got comfortable at the back and I looked through the window one last time to see my home once again before he drove off.  "Hi pretty, I am Tyler, which you already know, seventeen years and go to a normal high school, in my senior year and I know I am too young to be a bodyguard but everyone has a story to tell over here and I am sure with time you will get to know them," he said with a very big grin. ''Tell us more about yourself" Tyler said a little bit too excited. "Well, what's there to tell about me, I mean, I am sure you already have tabs on me''. "Well, we do but it's better hearing from you" he answered me with a smile. "Ok, I am in my senior year of high school, I joined the swimming club and I love swimming, also enjoy cooking'' I said. I was glad that Tyler was starting a conversation with me. It did a lot of good. We continued for a while and there was a comfortable silence between us. I was just admiring the scenery when I heard a voice I know too well ''Hi, they call me Lucas, I am eighteen and I am your bodyguard your dad hired to take care of you. We have already met in class but I feel there's a need to properly introduce myself." Wow, his smile melted my heart and all I could do was smile back. I was behaving like a total weirdo but it was the first time guys my age acknowledged me without any attempt of bullying me. We packed at McDonald's' for some burgers and continued with our journey. "I still think McDonald's' is better than KFC," Tyler said loudly and I chuckled at the sight of another argument staring between Tyler and Lucas. They looked liked they will take bullets for each other, they looked like best friends. We headed to the car and I was getting impatient to get to the house, I needed answers and I know the perfect way to find answers to all my questions. "Trust me Amanda everything is gonna be fine, I  and this stupid dickhead will protect you, you have my word". Tyler said in his usual happy voice. I smiled to show my gratitude. I realized Lucas was a man of few words and wasn't expecting him to say anything but he said I had their word. I felt comfortable around them it looks like I made two new friends.  Could this day go any crazier, guess there's only one way to find out.  " We are here, Lucas said looking aight into my soul. "It's on kay baby girl we will be here for you if you need us," Tyler says reassuring me. With a heavy heart I got down from my car to was met with a huge mansion.
