Kaitlin's P.O.V
Mikalia left at around midnight but Jordan however, wanted to stick around and make sure I was ok.
My parents were out of town for the night after some convincing on mine and Mikalia's part. They packed their bags and left for an evening together.
So it was just me and Jordan laying on the bed playing minecraft.
"I swear to god Jordan! If you burn down my house I will shank you in the kidney!" I threatened.
"Oh! Really now? You mean this house?" He teased throwing flint and steel together starting a fire.
"Jordan!!!! I hate you! We are not friends anymore!" I whined. Turning away from him and faking anger.
"Aww! Don't be that way! Come on! I'll make you a Sunday! With extra Reece's chips!" He teased, knowing that's exactly what I wanted.
I turned back to him, a fake scowl on my face.
"Ok!" I piped up, and sat expectantly.
"Go forth a fetch me my sustenance, BOY!" I teased.
He slipped off the bed, "Yes, your majesty!" He teased back.
I continued to rebuild my house waiting on my ice cream. When my phone rang.
I looked over and saw Hannah's face pop up on the screen.
I slid to answer, "Hey girl!" I said.
"Have you heard from Destery?" She asked.
This mornings events replayed in my mind.
"Yes. This morning, he chewed me out." I told her.
"No, I mean since then." She corrected.
"No! Why?" I asked.
"Because he left afterward and he won't pick up and we don't know where he is." She said a little panicked.
"Oh, well he probably just left to blow off steam." I assured her.
"Yeah, I guess. But call me if he calls you." She told me.
"I will."
Just then Jordan came in carrying my ice cream.
"The masterpiece is ready malady!" He shouted.
I made a shushing motion.
"Who's that?" Hannah asked.
"No body, gotta go!" I hung up.
"You idiot that was Hannah!" I complained.
"So?" He shrugged, handing me my ice cream.
"So! I don't want her to think I moved on to another guy the second I get back home." I explained.
"I'm sure she doesn't think that! Now eat!" He commanded.
"Bossy!" I said.
"Only for you!" He teased.
----------------------------------------
I woke up at around 3, the feeling of nausea in the out of my stomach.
I ran to the bathroom, and threw up. I heard someone run up behind me and hold my hair.
Once I flushed I looked to see Jordan.
"What are you still doing here?" I asked.
"Well you fell asleep and I didn't feel right leaving you just in case you needed me. Looks like I was right." He explained.
He helped me back into bed, my leg hurt from scrambling toward the bathroom.
"Guess the icecream was a bad idea." I stated.
"Yeah...looks like it." He agreed.
We climbed back into bed.
"Um, Jordan..." I began.
"Yeah?" He asked.
"Would you mind, um. Can I cuddle with you?" I asked.
Sleeping alone was hard after always having someone there.
"Sure." He said.
I scooted closer to him and laid my head on his chest. It felt....different.
I was so used to Destery that anyone else just felt..off. But I guess it was good enough, I fell right back to sleep.
----------------------------------------
"What the hell?!" Someone shouted. Jolting me out of my sleep.
I looked to see Destery at the foot of my bed.
"What are you doing here? How did you get in here?" I asked.
"The door was unlocked." He said sharply.
Jordan stirred next to me. Then I realized what it looked like.
"Oh! No! Destery! This is not what it looks like!" Shit...
"Really? Because it looks like you have the ability to move on fairly quickly." He said, venom dripping from his voice.
"No! Mikalia and Jordan came by, and Jordan stuck around to make sure I was ok. And I guess we fell asleep." I explained.
"Oh! Real convenient!" He shouted.
Jordan woke up.
"Destery! We still have our clothes on you idiot!" I shouted.
"Kaitlin?" What's going on?" Jordan asked.
"Nothing. Destery is just jumping to conclussions." I told him.
"Kinda like you did at the club!" Destery reminded.
Ouch, knew that was coming.
"You know what! Get ou-" I couldn't finish. More nausea.
I scrambled to the bathroom again.
This time it was Destery that held my hair back. Once done I looked at his worried expression.
This isn't right! I should be fine. And I know I'm not pregnant.
Or am I?
"Destery, take me to the hospital." I told him.
