Unexpected Love || Colby Brock

nineteen

When I open my eyes to see I'm in Colby's room. But sadly, I'm alone. My headache felt so bad. I sit up and look around.

I had to use the bathroom so I slowly get up. I look down to see Silas was sleeping on the couch that Colby keeps in his room.

I go use the bathroom and look at myself in the mirror. I looked like absolute shit.

It's like all the memories from last night came back. Especially the ones with Nate. I cringe at the memories.

I should talk to him about it. When I'm done in the bathroom, I go see who's awake. And to my luck, it's only Jake, Tara, and Erica.

Erica smiled when she saw me. "How're you feeling?" Erica smiled. I went over and sat next to Tara.

"Hungover for sure. Where is everyone?" I ask looking around. "Kat's asleep in Sam's room and Nate left not too long ago." I furrow my eyebrows.

"Nate left?" I ask confused. I look to see Jake nodding his head. "Yeah, said he wasn't feeling well." I groan at the thought.

I know he left because he's avoiding me. They all looked at me strangely. "What was that?" Jake asked laughing.

"Nate and I got into a fight last night at the party." They all looked at me surprised. "What, why? What happened?" Tara asked.

I explained to them what happened and how we fought. I told them how he walked away.

When I finished, they all looked at me shockingly. "I thought he was into you. I could sense the vibe." Tara told me.

"Are you going to tell Colby?" Jake asked seriously. Erica pointed at him like he agreed.

I didn't even think about it. I lean back and think about it. "I will when he gets back." I tell the group.

Erica looks at me with a look on her face. Like she was judging me. "What, Erica?" I ask as she puts her hands up defensively.

"I just don't think you should keep it from him." She explained. I squint my eyes towards her.

"I'm not keeping it from him. I'm just going to wait." I tell the three. "I don't want him freaking out more when he's so far away." She softened up.

Like she understood. "Who's freaking out?" Silas asked from behind us. He came over and sat with us.

"Colby when he hears that Nate admitted feelings for Stella." Jake told my brother. There was a hint of laughter in his voice.

"Is that why you both went outside?" I nodded my head. We talked about it for a while.

We figured to let Nate chill today and I could try to talk to him tomorrow.

The day, we hung out at Sam and Colby's, resting. It was a pretty chill day.

Around eight that night, everyone left. Erica and I were alone and hungry. "You wanna order a pizza?" I ask.

She agrees so we ordered a pizza. We sit on the couch and turn on a movie. We were binging The Hunger Games series.

"You know, you're literally Katniss, minus the whole rebellion thing." I look at her confused.

"You have two hot ass guys fighting over you!" I shake my head as I look back at the tv.

"Colby doesn't even like me that." I tell her. I won't deny that Nate likes me.

He's admitted it one too many times. "But I guess you were always right about Nate." I half joke.
