25. No one knew!
Rose ran outside and sat on the steps crying into her hands all the anger and heartbreak that she kept in for years was finally coming out she never wanted it to go down like this but she couldn't handle it anymore.
Leati came out and sat down next to her he wrapped an arm around her shoulders and pulled her into his side kissing the top of her head "Let it out baby" he said kissing her head again.
"When we were kids I looked up to her so much I wanted to be just like her she was my best friend the one person I knew I could always count on to have my back but somewhere down the line that all changed" She said "I never thought she be one of the people responsible for ripping me in two" she told him.
"For years I kept my mouth shut I never told anyone that's who he cheated on me with" she said "I never wanted that drama I didn't want to put my parents through that" she said as Her family stepped on the porch listening .
"And I guess one small part of me hoped that I still could depend on her that this was all some bad dream" she told him "I shouldn't of lashed out but I have been dealing with her underhanded comments and jealousy for years" she said "Lynn knew she could hit me were it hurt and I bite my tongue so she made every jab she could" she told him
"So no one knew?" He asked her
"Not at first but one day me and him got into it backstage and Steph over heard so I had to tell her what was going on and of course she ran and told Paul everything I had to beg him to not tell my mom and dad" she said
"I'm not sorry I snapped it's been a long time coming" She said
"You don't have to be" Her mom said that caused Rose to stand up and turn to look at them "You should of told us" she added.
"I didn't know how" Rose told her
"I bet" Lynn scoffed out Paul went to say something but Rose put her hand up
"I got this" Rose said to him "Do you have any idea what it was like having to play nice to you?" she asked Lynn "All the underhanded comments, the attitude, and the hate that I had to deal with just because you knew that you could push my buttons and I would try my best to not snap" she added
"No you had no idea what it was like living in your shadow our entire lives" Lynn said "It was always Rose this Rose that I'm sick and tired of it" she said "I just wanted you to feel the way I did for once I wanted to hurt you so I did" she said "Just like you did to me" she yelled
"Oh my" Rose said rubbing her forehead "Are you still on that?" she asked
"Yeah I am I loved him" Lynn yelled "You stole him from me" she said
"I didn't still Todd from you" Rose said throwing her hands up.
"Right I saw you two" Lynn said
"No what you saw was him kiss me" Rose said "Then you ran off but what you didn't see was me knee him dead in the balls then slap him because I knew how hurt you were when he broke up with you" she said.
"You never let me tell you what happened that night you just assumed and then set out to destroy me and what you did was a million times worse" Rose said.
"Lynn how could you?" Their dad asked.
"I wanted to hurt her" Lynn said through gritted teeth "I wanted you to feel the pain I did and you know what I don't apologize for what I did" she told her "I loved him" she added
Rose started laughing to the point of tears which made everyone look at her confused.
"You wanted to hurt me hell Lynn you did better you destroyed me" Rose said "But I find it very comical that you say you loved him" she said "Did you know all he did that night and for years after was beg me to come home to forgive him and how you were nothing but a mistake" she said "You ended up alone so congratulations on fucking yourself" Rose told her
"But I'm done" Rose said "I am washing my hands of this mess I have dealt with more bullshit and drama in the past few months than I have in my entire life and I am worn out from it" Rose said "I just want to be happy and be in love and I can't do that if I hold on to all this negative shit so I'm letting go and moving on" she added
"Just like you to always run away when the going gets tough" Lynn said
"I guess so" Rose said "But at least everyone knows the truth so if you thought you lived in my shadow before you defiantly do now" she told her.
"I love you guys but I can't do this" she said hugging her parents as Leati went and got JoJo.
"We understand Bud" Her dad said kissing her cheek.
They got in the car and drove back to Rose's house once they arrived JoJo took off inside to watch tv as they stood on the porch he held her against his chest and let her cry it out.
"I'm so sorry" He said kissing her head
"Please don't hurt me" she cried into his chest he felt his heartbreak but just held her tight making sure she knew she wasn't alone.
