isla hamilton i don't remember much from last night. scratch that, i remember nothing.
sitting up from bed, i cringed and immediately began to massage my temples. i looked around the room and didn't recognize a thing.
picking up the covers i noticed that i was fully clothed, i let out a sigh of relief. but i noticed that they weren't my clothes. a man's.
i stood up and tried to figure out where i was. there were pictures of boats and trophies. i opened the door and everything became familiar. it was susannah's house.
jeremiah.
i made my way to his room and softly knocked on his door. i heard a 'come in' so i opened the door. he was still laying down, so i joined him on the bed, "hey."
jeremiah turned to face me and gave me a smile, "good morning, how are you feeling?"
i touched my head, "i have a major headache." he put his hand on my forehead and began to softly massage it. i leaned into him and allowed him to rub my head.
"jere?" he hummed in response, "who's the room was in?"
he spoke softly, "conrad's. he slept on the floor of my room. when the cops broke up the party yesterday we ended up getting busted for underage drinking, but thankfully both of our families are important so we were just given a warning. and, i didn't want you to go to your house without anyone there with you being in the state you were in, so i just brought you with me."
i nodded and snuggled myself more into him, "thank you, jere."
a few minutes went by with complete silence. my headache slowly went down with the touch of jeremiah's hands. thinking about the events of last night and not being able to remember anything, i looked up to jeremiah.
"did i do anything stupid last night?" i asked. he closed his eyes for a moment and i got nervous...

jeremiah fisher did she do anything stupid? no. not at all.
all she did was kiss me and tell me how much she loved me, and not just as a friend.
i debated on whether i should tell her or not. i wanted to, only for the clarification, but i didn't want her to be embarrassed.
if she was being honest, it had never just been me who had feelings and maybe we could go somewhere as a couple. my heart started to beat faster.
"jere?" her soft voice rang out, "oh god, i did something didn't i?"
fuck it. "yeah."
she sat up and stared at me, "what did i do?" isla asked, hesitantly.
"you, um, told me that you had feelings for me and that you've always loved me. and not as a friend." i watched her reaction. a million thoughts had to be racing through her head because it took her a while to answer.
"oh."
oh. a simple word for a not-so-simple situation.
"was what you said true?" i whispered. "and isla, please don't lie to me."
her face softened as i stared into her eyes. tears almost welling in hers. "yes."
"yes," i repeated.
isla's eyes narrowed, "are you mocking me right now? in a serious situation? damn it jere, i tho-"
i cut her off by bringing my lips to hers. she gasped and began to kiss me back. thoughts were flying all around my head. isla is who i want. right? not belly. yes. isla. it's always been isla and i.
smiling, i deepened the kiss. it was passionate. her hand gripped my hair and my hand was sliding up and down her waist. holding her to me.
isla was the first to slow down. i followed her movements and we were left sitting next to each other, out of breath.
"i need to know if you have anything for belly." she began. "i can't have you like her, but then kissing me or doing whatever it is, jere. i need to know that it's just me you want."
i nodded, "it's just you. isla, you're the only one i want."
she grinned, "yeah?"
i grinned back and leaned forward and kissed her, "oh yeah." isla grinned and pulled me down to her lips again.
