He Thinks He's the Best - J.H

Chapter 35

Roxy pov

I woke up in the early hours of the morning, four thirty to be exact, with an absolute bitch of a headache. After stumbling about a little, I noticed that we were still sat in the living room, I was laid on top of Jaden's chest who is currently hugging a pillow in replacement of me.

As I walked to the kitchen, I felt the need to completely empty my stomach. So I walked as fast as I could to the toilet connected my bedroom so I didn't wake Jaden. If there's anything I hate most in the world, throwing up would be reigning at the top of that list.

Halfway through my very deep connection with the toilet bowl, I felt someone grabbing my hair and holding it back. I was about to turn around and punch them in the throat for touching me, but was cut off by needing to throw up again.

"I definitely didn't miss this part of the process." Jaden chuckled as he rubbed my back comfortingly.

"You're welcome to leave if you want." I chuckled back as I sat back on my legs, flushing the toilet and resting my head in the lid once I had closed it.

"You aren't getting ready if me that easily sweetheart." He joked.

I stood up and walked over to the sink to brush my teeth. Meanwhile, he just sat in the same place, watching me. I looked over at him, only taking a quick glance at first, but then snapping my head back to him when I realised he was staring. He let out a breathy laugh from my reaction, but still didn't say anything or stop staring.

"Are you gonna do something, or are you just gonna sit and stare at me, creeping me out and giving me more than enough of a reason to beat your head in with a baseball bat?" I threatened.

He laughed and stood up, his bones cracking as he bent his knees. I was going to speak up on it, but was cut off by him.

"Don't do it." He mumbled quietly.

"I wasn't going to say anything." I said, over dramatically.

"Yeah sure, and I'm rich." He joked.

"You are, asshole." I laughed as I walked out of the room and collapsed onto my bed.

"Oh yeah. I forget that sometimes." He laughed as he just stood there, not doing anything.

"Again, are you gonna get in, or are you gonna stand there being all creepy? Because if I'm counting correctly that would make this the fifth time you've been caught watching me sleep." I chuckled as he scoffed at my words.

I felt the bed dip, and a pair of hands wrapped themselves around my waist. He pulled me so my ass and back were flush against his hips and chest. He slipped his hands under my hoodie, and rested then on my stomach. My body flinched slightly because his hands are still fucking freezing.

"Did you stick your hands in the fucking freezer when you woke up? Also sorry if I woke you up." I smiled guiltily, even though he couldn't see me due to him burying his head into my neck, peppering light kisses onto it.

"First off, no I didn't put my hands in the freezer, purely for the fact I don't know where your freezer is." He laughed slightly, "and second of all, you didn't wake me up necessarily, I woke up because I felt my grip tighten on something that squashed quite a lot. I scared the shit out of myself because I thought I had somehow crushed your bones and organs without hearing a crunch sound. I scared myself so much in my sleep that I rolled off of the sofa, and then heard you throwing up." He explained.

"So you're telling me you've never noticed that my fridge has two doors no? The fact that there are two separate compartments on it?" I asked as I felt his breath on my neck.

"You should probably sleep." He whispered, avoiding the question.

"Okay fine." I whispered as I brought my hands to his, playing with the ring on his finger.

I had already felt his breath even out and slow, so I knew he was asleep. Now it was my turn to fall asleep. Which of course, wouldn't happen because my body hates me. His grip on me was tight, so I couldn't move, but it was loose enough so that if I needed to break out for whatever reason, I would be able to. But that would probably wake him up for nothing if I tried that. I laid my head on the pillow and stared at the wall.

"See what I mean now?" He said as he appeared in front of me.

"You fucking knew?" I hissed when I realised that he knew I was pregnant before I did.

"Roxy, don't be stupid. Of course I knew. I know everything your body will do before it happens." He said as he sat back.

"And you didn't think to fucking tell me?" I whisper shouted.

"Oh I did, but I wanted you to find out yourself." He answered.

"You fucking di-" I was cut off by Jaden's grip tightening around my waist slightly.

He moved a little, and did that thing where he lifted his head slightly, but laid back down again. I sighed in relief when I heard him breathing steadily again, and turned back to face Liam.

Or where Liam should have been. But he wasn't. He disappeared again. I felt my heartbeat speed up a little, and my chest felt heavy. I was crying. I didn't know why, but I was now just laid there, silently crying.

I managed to turn myself so that I was now resting my head against Jaden's chest. I nuzzled my head into him as far as I could, his body radiating heat I so desperately needed. His grip tightened around my body again as he pulled me into him.

And that's how I fell asleep.

Crying into the chest of the guy I wanted to spend the rest of my life with, and the guy who had no idea about how I felt.

But little did she know, that he felt the exact same way.

Both just two people in love, but both too scared to take anything further.
