(Sorry it's been slow updates)
The next morning:
I woke up to a sleepy Jeremiah laying next to me in a tiny bed, I got up going to the bathroom and once I returned back to the room I saw Jeremiah sat up shirtless.
"Good Morning" Jeremiah said in a sleepy voice, "Morning" I said walking over to get my stuff. "Where are you going?" Jeremiah asked as I was picking up my clothes as I was in my underwear. "I'm getting dressed and then going back to my room before anyone see's. I said putting my clothes on.
"No your not" Jeremiah said pulling me closer and pecking my lips. "Wait, we need to speak" I said pulling back, "About?" Jeremiah replied looking agitated. "How I was gone for months, then came back and everyone hated me and I hated them. It's not going to click back in place after everything that's happened" I said.
"I know that, what do you want to happen" Jeremiah asked me not sure of what to do. "I just don't want to rush into things as it's not fair on you or anybody else" I said. "What are you trying to say Maeve?" Jeremiah asked sounding irritated. "I just want to be friends until everyone's happy with me again, I just don't think it's fair after causing chaos to come running back to you and not even apologise to them. I want them to actually believe I'm sorry" I said.
"Here we go again" Jeremiah said slouching back. "What" I said confused. "All you ever do is think about everyone else and not yourself, like look what happened last time you did want you thought everyone else wanted. We all ended up unhappy, just be selfish for once" Jeremiah said. "I will, just let me apologise" I said now with all my clothes on and at the door.
"Now do you need me to find the meaning of rest?" I said chuckling to Jeremiah. I left still limping. "Good morning Maeve!" I heard Hailey say behind me which made me exhale knowing she saw me walk out of Jeremiah's room. "Morning" I said trying to avoid the topic. I turned to see Kenzie in Hailey's arms.
We carried on walking to the room I was staying in while having a conversation. Once we were in the room I put my clothes away. "Do you want to hold Kenzie?" Hailey said to which I nodded as she past Kenzie to me. "I feel like I've missed so much" I said as I held Kenzie while talking to Hailey.
"Maeve it's okay, truly much hasn't changed because Jeremiah didn't want to change" Hailey said placing a hand on my lap. "I'm not talking about Jeremiah, I mean like Kenzie doesn't know me, Parker and Louis always look uncomfortable when in a conversation with me and craziest of all Lucas has a girlfriend" I said while chuckling.
"Parker and Louis just don't want to push you to go back into the way it was before everything and for the Lucas situation she's lovely but I don't know how she puts up with him" Hailey said making us both chuckle.
We spoke some more before Kenzie started getting tired so Hailey took her to bed. I went upstairs to were the kitchen and all was, and grabbed an apple as I wasn't hungry much.
"Morning" I turned to see a girl around the same age as me walk into the kitchen. Without thinking I went to grab the knife next to me before actually taking in her presence. As I was about to throw it I heard Camila shout "Maeve stop! It's Rachel Lucas's girlfriend!" She said which I instantly put down the knife looking over to see her terrified expression. "I'm honestly so sorry!" I said running over to her and giving her a hug.
I looked back to her to see a more relaxed expression, I honestly felt really bad for that as I would probably not be very happy with someone if they did that to me. "It's okay just as long as you don't do that every morning" Rachel said chuckling. "I really am sorry, can I make you breakfast as I sorry?" I said. "You don't have to it's okay" Rachel said still chuckling.
"Are you sure?" I said, "Yes it's fine don't worry" by now Wesley, Louis, Parker and Lucas were stood at the door as they probably heard the commotion. "What happened?" Lucas said walking over to Rachel. "I might have accidentally attempted to murder your girlfriend" I said as she and Camila chuckled. "Please don't kill my girlfriend as I don't think I will find another one" Lucas said placing a kiss on her temple as i squirmed in cringe.
"Anyway, how are you feeling? I heard what happened" Rachel said looking over to me as I grabbed my apple. "I feel better now, I might go for a swim in a minute" I said looking out to the pool where Grayson and Hailey sat with Kenzie. "We were thinking of going to the shops later so you want anything?" Camila asked. "I'll come with you" I said thinking about how bored I had been in the house. "You not supposed to leave the house until your fully healed and healthy" Louis said resting against the kitchen counter.
I rolled my eyes in annoyance but just delt with it.

After breakfast everyone went out for a hike as they didn't seem busy in the morning, so I decided to go for a swim. I swam for around 30 minutes before I heard a noise behind me, I turned to see Jeremiah in some swim shorts.
"I didn't think you were allowed to swim" I said as he got into the pool, "I'm not but you were alone and I was bored so I thought I would join you" Jeremiah said slowly swimming towards me.
When he got near he started tickling me making me laugh, "S-stop" I tried to say. Jeremiah laughed a bit and then finally let me free. We stared at each other for a while in silence before Jeremiah spoke, "When you left were you happy with him?" He said confusing me. "What?" I said, "That guy you were dating" Jere said seriously. "Kaiden? No" I said answering Jeremiah's question.
"Why?" He asked. "I guess that life was the real problem not the people in it, I mean don't get me wrong Kaiden was horrible and so were everyone else I knew but I knew that was more of a me problem than them" I said still facing Jeremiah. He observed me in silence, "You didn't have to leave Maeve" Jeremiah said sounding hurt. "You hurt me" Jeremiah said as I looked into his eyes only seeing hurt. "I'm sorry I just want you to be happy" I said while tears blurred my vision.
"If you truly wanted me to be happy you would've stayed" he said breaking eye contact. "What do you want now? What makes you happy" I said swallowing back the tears. "You, I just want you." He said as we got closer, "Just to be with you, to wake up next to you and to fall asleep with you everyday" Jeremiah said. "Because Maeve I still love you, I never stopped" Jeremiah said at nose distance now. "I love you" I said as his lips met mine.

Me and Jeremiah continued to swim after that before everyone arrived back from the hike and had done the shopping then. Me and Jeremiah were in a different place with each other, I loved him but I wasn't sure if I should be with him. I just don't want what happened last time to happen again, but this time I just want to do what I want.
