Manage Me, I'm a Mess
I watched you burn, and I felt it
(three weeks later)
-Jacks POV-
'Mum, can I talk to you?' I ask and my mum nods,
'morning to you too.' he chuckles,
'right, this is really awkward but I think I'm starting to like Alex... You know, like like Alex.' I sigh,
'Really?' she asks,
'Yeah.' I breathe,
'Thats okay Hun, you know that right? You're not related. We do not make Alex call us mum and dad and you two don't class each other as brothers. It's okay.' she smiles softly,
'Im just so confused mumma... And I know he's hiding something. He has something wrong mentally and emotionally. He won't tell me though.' I whisper,
'Don't force him to. Have you told him about your anorexia?' she asks,
'Yeah, I wanted to help him feel as though he's not alone.' I sigh and she pats my back,
'You two have made such a strong bond in such a short amount of time, it's truly amazing.' she whispers,
'He said he's never felt more comfortable at a foster home.' I smile softly,
'Thats good. He's a sweet, sweet boy and me and your father love him very much, just like we love you, so please remember we are always here for the both of you.' she whispers and hugs me,
'You alright Jack?' Alex asks, walking into the kitchen,
'Yeah bud.' I smile, pulling away from my mum, who giggles,
'Good.' he smiles and sits on a stool at the island counter, I smile and go and hug him,
'did you sleep okay?' I ask and he nods,
'You?' he asks,
'Yeah bud.' I chuckle and roll my eyes when my mum leaves the kitchen, giggling slightly, 'She's a freak.' I mutter,
'Shes a lovely freak though. Whys she laughing?' he asks,
'Long story.' I chuckle.
