I Do

Okay so I had to repost this because it got fucked up some how. I had like so much of an authors note written and I'm too lazy to go back and rewrite that all so here's the run down. Zoey Gordon, the only other face claim is a minor character in this book but will def be a bigger character in the next book. I have an idea for the next book and it'll probably be after a few months because I have another book I'm working on. It's an enemies to lovers and it'll be posted after this book. It'll go this book, enemies to lovers and then the sequel.

Anyways don't forget to vote, comment and enjoy!

"Bro, we need to go. Like now." I said to Vinnie, practically falling over.

"You good?" I shook my head and he wrapped his arm around me. "Did you drink?" I shook my head and he sighed. "Are you sure?" I nodded and he pulled out his phone, dialing someone.

I laid next to the toilet, resting my head on the cool tile. I felt like shit and was ready to give up on life. Whatever I ate within the last three days has ended up in the toilet.

Vinnie was so gracious to bring me water but I kicked him out half an hour ago. I didn't need him seeing me like this.

A day later and I was feeling fine. Got over whatever fever I had caught. Some would say it's a miracle. I'd say it's weird. What the hell.cpuld I have eaten that gave me the fever for 12 hours and then disappeared without a trace?

"Don't tell me I'm being crazy. That shits just not normal."

Vinnie sighed. "It's not normal but I don't think you should be reading into it this much."

"But it just doesn't feel right. It all feels like a set up."

"I'm sure your body was just trying to adjust to Europe. Please Max, just stop stressing."

"I can't. Everything just feels wrong. I feel like I'm constantly being targeted and I'm stressed. I don't feel safe at home, I don't feel safe in public, hell I don't even feel safe in another country, halfway across the world."

Vinnie sighed and hung his head in his hands. "I don't know what to tell you Max. There's nothing we can really do."

"I know and that's what sucks. I just want to be normal again."

"There is no more normal."

"I know Vinnie, I know."

"So what do you want?"

"I want to go home. I want to live in peace."

Vinnie sighed and looked at me, thinking hard. I patiently waited for him to say something.

"Maybe it's time to...move out." Vinnie trailed off.

"Move out?"

"Of the hype house. It's been a year now."

"But, move out? The hype house is home."

"Max, if you're not comfortable here then I don't want to stay here."

"Vinnie, I don't think you should move out."

"Why not?"

"The hype house is dying and your probably the only thing keeping it afloat."

"So?"

"Why don't we wait until more people move in, maybe three more months, and then we can leave."
