     I stretch out and something stops me. A weight on my stomach. I look down and see my babe sleeping with his head on my stomach. I smile at him before running my hand through his hair. He pulls my body closer to him as I do so. Then my bladder screams at me to relieve it. I sigh before gently shaking him. He moves so he isn't laying on me and I climb over him before picking up the shirt I had thrown last night. I slip it on and walk over to the bathroom. I relieve my blatter and wash my hands before walking out to the kitchen. Lucy sits at the dining table and looks up at me when I walk in.

      "How are you?" She whispers and I sigh.

     "I'm fine. How are you?" I say and she looks down.

     "Lucy. What are you doing here?" I hear behind me and frown before looking at Luke. He looks at me before grabbing my arm and pulling me behind him.

     "No one told her. Just stay away from her. Get out of this house. You are no longer welcome here." He says and I look at his back confused. She stands and walks out the front door. I look at Luke pushing him away.

     "I know your mad but you don't know what happened last night after Marrco took you away. You didn't hear her." He says quietly and I just roll my eyes at him before walking back to Marco's room. He looks at me and I look at him. I walk over and he holds his arms out for me. I walk over to his bed and he pulls me down next to him.

     "Where did you go?" He says quietly his voice thick with sleep and I smile.

     "My blatter was screaming at me to relieve it." I whisper and he nods before pulling me again.

      "Can we go back to sleep?" He whispers and I nod.

       "Are you okay?" He whispers and I just nod again. He pulls me so I'm laying on my back and lays his head on my stomach. I play with his hair for a little bit until I feel him fall asleep. I sigh and just lay there letting him sleep. He's probably tired from last night. As he sleeps he pulls my body closer to him. He face in a grimace before he relaxes. The door opens and Luke steps in. I look away from him and I hear him sigh.

    "You don't understand." He whispers and I roll my eyes.

    "What don't I understand?" I say annoyed and he looks down.

    "When Jack brought you back in. And after Marco pulled you away. Jack told us what happened. Why you were so mad. And upset. She didn't even care about you. She was mad at Jack for not telling her. She was mad at Jack that he puts you first." He whispers and I look at him.

     "You're lying." I say and he looks at me.

     "I'm not. I wouldn't lie about this." He says and tears well in my eyes. I blink them away and he sighs.

     "I'm not gonna say I know how you feel but I lost my girlfriend too. I kind of understand what your going through." He says and I look away.

     "Mmm." Marco makes a sound and I look down at him.

     "Hey babygirl." He says his voice still sleeply. That voice I can't help but love. He pulls my body closer again and snuggles closer. I look at Luke and he looks down before walking out. Marco turns his head and looks at the door the just shut before looking at me confused.

     "Luke. He was asking how I was." I whisper and he nods.

     "How are you?" He says and I look at the ceiling.

      "I'm fine. I guess." I whisper and he turns his head again. Placing his lips on my stomach over the shirt.

      "Come on. I'll make you something to eat." He says and pulls away and stands up before pulling me up with him. He pulls me out to the kitchen and sets me down on the counter. His mother comes in and looks at me.

      "Hi honey. How are you?" She says and I look down.

      "I'm fine thank you. And I apologize for last night. I wasn't in my right mind." I whisper quietly and she shakes her head.

      "I'm so sorry hun. I didn't know. I can't imagine what you must be feeling right now." She says and I look down.

     "I'm okay Mrs. Sanchez. Thank you though." I say and she looks at my eyes.

     "Are you?" She whispers and I nod.

    "I'm fine." I say and she pats my thigh and walks away. I huff and Marco looks at me.

     "Want some bacon?" He says and I nod.

     "Yes please." I say quietly. Jack comes out and I glare at him. He looks at me before looking down.

     "I'm sorry Lina." He says and I roll my eyes.

     "Why did you have to tell them?" I ask annoyed and he looks down again.

     "You don't think they had a right to know?" He says and I roll my eyes.

      "No. Not if I didn't want them to." I say raising my voice slightly.

      "After how you freaked everyone out? Lina come on. None of them knew what to do to help you. I didn't even know until I realized what day it was." He says his voice dropping. I sigh.

      "Fine. Whatever." I say and he looks at me.

      "How are you?" He says and I look at my legs. A red mark on my thigh and I frown before running my thumb over it.

      "I'm fine." I say and he looks at my hand and I look at Marco.

       "Can we eat?" I say and he nods before I get off the counter and we walk over to the table. Luke's dad walks out and looks at me.

      "Hola linda. ¿Cómo te sientes?" He says and I look at Marco.

      "Me siento horrible pero no quiero decirle." I whisper back and he looks at Marco.

      "How are you?" He asks in english and I nod.

      "I'm fine." I say for what feels like the umpteenth time I've said that since I woke up.
