I'm Just Not Ready

"Why not come home with me Kit? I know you would enjoy it."

"I'm still trying to get used to being here, there is nothing there for me Selena." I noticed the hurt in her eyes at my words as she looked away.

"I didn't mean it to sound that way Selena,  I know you'd be there,  but I'm just not ready yet, I still haven't gotten used to this place or the people in it." I added in a annoyed voice.

                                                                         Selena's POV

I didn't know what to say to her. I would be there, my family would be there, what did she mean by my home didn't have anything she needed? 

My family could be her family but she wanted no part in it. I looked at her. "My family would love you if you gave them a chance Kit"

"I'm sorry Selena, I will miss you during the summer but i just can't right now, I'm not ready ."

"What's really holding you back Kit? I looked at her angrily and was pretty sure that I knew the real reason. "Is it Scott?" I blurted out.

I noticed Kit took a deep breath. I could tell she was getting frustrated with my questioning but I really wanted her to come with me. 

"Selena, I'm still just trying to live my life here is all and get used to it so travel is just not a priority or option for me right now." she blurted out.

I watched as Kit put her head down before speaking to me again.   " I can't afford luxury right now Selena, I'm barely helping you pay our rent and bills right now and I owe you so much already, I just need to stay here and find a job so that I can help you."

"We are friends Kit, you don't owe me sh*t, I like helping you when you let me and I don't want the money back, this is what friends do for each other."

Yeah, I could see her point. She didn't like being a charity case. I knew that. She kept records of everything I paid on my own and swore to pay it back .

"Kit, Money is not a problem, I have a lot of it, my family has a lot of it, I can buy your ticket and I know my family won't mind at all!"

Kit finally looked at me angrily as I knew she would. "Look Selena, I get that you wanna help me and that you wanna show me your home, the place you grew up in, and introduce me to your family but I can't right now okay,  I'm not a charity case!

"I never thought you were one Kit," I added back angrily.

"Selena, I need to stay here and find a job this summer so I can help out!"

"Fine! Then I won't go either! I'll stay here with you,"  I cried as tears fell from my eyes.

"Don't you wanna go home Selena?" Kit looked at me questioningly then asked with concern. "Don't you want to see your boyfriend and family members? "

"It's so exhausting dealing with my brothers Kit , They are all 3 a*sholes and then my mate to add on top of them, I just hoped I wouldn't have to deal with them on my own."

"I was hoping you'd spare me and come but I totally understand your reasoning." I stated with sadness.

"Selena, you have to go , your family is expecting you!"

"They wouldn't care if I was there or not Kit!"

"What do you mean? she asked with a frown.

"Nothing Kit! Just forget that Insaid that!" I jumped out of my SUV and opened the backdoor to grab our bags. I heard our names be hollered and look up to see Scott rushing toward us waving his hand.

He rushed towards Kits door and opened it for her before she could. He was seriously getting on my nerves and pissing me off.He may fool Kit but never me, I knew his kind.

I watched as he put his arm around Kit and started walking toward the school with her. In my mind, he was not what Kit needed , I didn't like him, and I knew what he was just as I knew he knew my secret as well.

The closer he got to Kit , the more p*ssed off I became. There was no way I was leaving Kit here alone with him to defend herself against his male hormones.

She might think he was a good friend, sweet, and a decent guy but I knew different, he didn't fool me one bit, I knew what he was after .

My goal was to get Kit to go with me and far away from Scott or he would swindle his way into her pants and get his creepy little hands on her.

Following close behind them, I finally let my feelings show "Hey Scott, don't  you have your own exam to get to?"

He turned and glanced at me as if daring me to keep him away from Kit causing me to roll my eyes as I smirked and asked. "Why are you always following Kit around with your tongue wagging?" I asked with a smirk.

"Why are you always wearing that bitchy face of yours Selena?" He asked me, causing me to laugh out loud.

I just shrugged my shoulders and walked between them grabbing Kits hand as I glanced at Scott and whispered. "Touch her and I'll kill you."
