I tapped the green answer button and held the phone to my ear, still laughing because of what Bellamy had done earlier."Hi," I said, trying to control my laughter."Where are you?" Tristan asked immediately without saying a hi or hello like he used to."I'm out with my mom and dad." I answered.My laughing seized when I noticed Tristan was serious. His voice was deeper than it used to be and nothing close to fooling around was in the tone he used. "Where?" He inquired and I knitted my brows into a frown not understanding what was going on."Magnifico's." I answered. "Are you okay?"A stray of brown hair fell to my face and I made a mental note to dye it butterscotch whenever this family thing was over. Unexpectedly, Bellamy tucked the stray of hair behind my ear and I muttered a thank you."Okay. Yeah, I'm good. See you later." With that, t

Maya tightened her jaw bone so hard I thought she was going to break it. Quickly, she ran out of the room and I was left with my brother and the black head. The girl stared at her fingers like they were suddenly something interesting and she blew air on them, sitting comfortably under my brother's duvet. "Who is this?" I pointed a manicured finger at the rat beside him and she rolled her eyes at me. "What?" I moved closer to her, narrowing my eyes into crinkled slits. "Take that fucking eye roll back before I shove my fingers into them." "I don't even know." He held his head and scratched his hair like he was running crazy. "I can't remember shit. I only remember walking out of the house to the... I can't even remember, but I was with someone and then book, this."I shook my head and frowned at my dumb brother. He wasn't making any sense. Did he drink at a party or something? "Who are you?" He directed the question to the no

Frequent headaches were beginning to make me feel like I was going to die soon. The light cascaded into my room from the window and pierced my eyes. It literally pierced my eyes because I could feel my head aching all the way to my left eye and ear.I tried to turn so I could face the other side and not get friend by the sun, but Maya's hand was wrapped around my waist so I turned slowly and took in the sight of my best friend sleeping with her mouth open. She looked pretty even with the saliva running down her cheek.Euw! My subconscious exclaimed. Why the hell was I studying the features of her face when I wasn't Cameron or even her husband? Gross.The headache continued and it was on the verge of splitting my head into two. I winced and massaged the sides of my head for a little bit, hoping it'd stop hurting, but it didn't. It constantly felt like my head was being stabbed with a pitch fork.

"What are you doing here?" Tristan asked, anger blazing in his eyes.He wasn't wearing a shirt and appeared like he had just gotten out of the shower, balls of water rolled down his chest and I forcefully took my eyes away from his drool worthy body."I'm here to see you. Can I at least come into your room?" I asked, voice thin and slivery.He moved aside and I walked in, feeling a little uneasy."So?" He asked with his hands Akimbo after closing his door."I came to see you. What's going on, did I upset you or something?" I questioned, taking a step closer to him."Why don't you go see your boyfriend, Bellamy and feed him one ice cream." Tristan snapped with a straight face and I got confused. What the hell was he talking about?"What do you mean by my boyfriend, Bellamy?" A line appeared between my brows.He sat down on the bed and raised a brow

Guilt. That was what was written all over his face as he scratched his eyes and had a wandering gaze. His facial expression was like that of a kid that was caught stealing candy from a jar. My mouth was still hung open, but then I picked it up and jammed it close, staring at him with an I don't care face. I folded my arms and arched a perfectly carved brow at him and said, "Yes, what do you want?""Jade..." He trailed off and dug his hand into his front pocket and the gentle breeze blew his open button shirt around. "I'm sincerely sorry-" Tristan hesitated to rub his bare arms to keep him warm from the cold.Softness and pity poked my heart and I decided to let the cold kitten in by stepping aside and jutting my chin to my living room. He nodded and proceeded into my living room, looking at anywhere, but my face. I crossed my arms over my chest and rested all my weight on my right leg, waiting for my boyfriend to cont
