Back To You

33- Of course I will

Hailey's P.O.V.

"It's about time you both showed up. Did you both have a good night?" Jess asked, linking her arm though mine as she led me away from everyone.

"We did."

She looked back at Drake. "It took you long enough to bring my sister back."

"Well in his defense, we made a few pit stops. Guess what we brought." I held up the rattling bags that held the alcohol and put it on the counter.

"No you didn't?" Greg said, peeking inside with a smile.

"We did… and for later." I pulled out a new mystery murder game and handed it to Shane.

"Yay!" He said, looking over the box. "We're doing this tonight."

"I'm going to take your bag up to our room real quick." Drake said, giving me a kiss.

I smiled into his kiss, "Our room?"

"Yep, our room." He gave me another quick kiss before heading upstairs.

"You guys look like you're doing good?" Sara said, nudging my shoulder.

"We are. I was so worried he wasn't going to forgive me. We talked a lot and I told him about everything."

"Good. I'm really happy for you guys." Jess said, sounding sincere but I was still scared everyone else hadn't forgiven me.

"Are we all good also?" I asked hesitantly, looking around the room at everyone.

Jess smiled, "We're good. I'm just sorry we couldn't help you or be there for you more."

"But you all did help me. I'd more than likely be dead if I didn't come here last summer and I know I said this before but if Carlos or his men knew about you Jess… I never would have come here. I never would have put you all in danger."

"We know and we all talked, we promise this stays between us. No one else will ever know about what happened." Jess said.

"Yeah, we love you Hailey. I'm glad you're okay." Drew said, giving me a big hug and kissed the top of my head. "Drake really missed you. Be good to him, okay?"

I nodded, "I will, I promise."

Greg smiled at me as I let Drew go. "I watched you play football when I was in Switzerland."

"You did?" Greg asked.

I smiled. "The people I stayed with had all your games on their laptop so I could watch you. You're pretty good."

He draped his arm around my neck, "Oh honey, I'm the best." Making me laugh.

Drake came back downstairs and sat down next to me. We all continued talking as they finished their lunch.

"What was Switzerland like?" Sara asked.

"To be honest I didn't really sightsee. The family I stayed with owned a bakery and repair shop, so I worked for them a lot to stay busy. When I wasn't working I stayed home. We went skiing a few times, which was amazing. I plan on visiting them sometime and actually go out and enjoy myself this time."

Shane started laughing, "I wouldn't have minded looking for her there. The Texas trip was boring as hell."

I looked over at him, "What are you talking about?"

Everyone was quiet and looking amongst each other.

Drake cleared his throat, "Umm, Jess and I were worried about you since we hadn't heard anything. So we went to Texas to see if we could find you."
