In Love With A Criminal

81

Delmonte POV
" you guys really didn't have to help us set up" I say eyeing Blue and Bailey and they shrugged. " didn't feel well enough to go to the crossing but we'll enough to set up for the Neo's party, I know what's going on" I say and Blue shrugs. " I'm actually only here to help set up, I still don't feel good" blue says and her face did look red. " same" Bailey co-signed as hers looked red as well. " go home girls, we don't need no nupes storming in here over they boo's" I tell them and they shake they're head. " that's not a question, we don't need no beefs between the nupes over they're pretty ladies"i tell them and they sigh before handing me the decorations they had in their hands and each giving me a hug. " I'll see you ladies when y'all feeling a bit better" they laugh me off and I watch as they head towards their dorms, my girls gone be the life of me, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Blue POV
I got a text from Ginger wishing me well and that she was sleeping in her man's dorm tonight and how she didn't wanna get sick. I stopped by the student store to pick up some nausea pills and I saw how flush my face was, maybe I really did need to lay down and take it easy. Going into my room I walk past my bed and put the Gatorade I picked up into the fridge, except once I crack it open and took a sip. " how you feeling mama ?" I jumped at the sound of Derrick's voice as held my chest as I slowly turned around.

How could I not notice all four on the end and she was there too. " nauseous" I say softly and their eyes fall to the nausea pill. " you missed the crossing" Danny says and I nodded nervously. " I wasn't feeling good, me and Bailey remembered we promised Delmonte we'd helped them set up for their neo Alpha parties but he told us to get rest cause he saw we weren't feelings good" i explain and they nodded. " hey autumn" I found myself saying and I waved at her. I guess this put her at ease seeing as she cracks a small smile and waves back. " I told you she was sick" Lionel says coming over to hug and ma s when he kissed my forehead and he pulled back and made a face.

" we'll let you rest, but tomorrow B, no more running, Autumn is in the group now" Derrick says and I nodded as they all got up to leave, except Danny. He waited until they left and he looks at me before he sits next to me. " I wasn't ready, you guys said it yourself you saw how we were acting and you pushed us towards it, I had no idea about Autumn or that you guys like her, I don't care what you do but I'm not ready to talk to her, at least about the group, to you guys I'm overreacting but to me I was in the dark on this one, I'm glad she makes you guys happy at least" I fired off before he could say anything. I couldn't look at him, afraid I might cry if I do. " you stayed silent this whole time, because we did with Lionel" I nodded at his statement. He sat for a few moments, obviously unsure of what to do before pulling me into a hug.

" it's okay I just need time to adjust without it being shoved down my throat, I've been talking to ehr and being nice I just haven't mentioned the relationship, just give me some time I'm good I promise"I assure him and he started at me. " I'm gonna stay and take care of you, and start making it up to you" he says and I smiled as he pulls me closer and I decided I'd just close my eyes. This was a lot to process and I'd rather just nap since I didn't feel good.

I suddenly felt myself being shaken awake. " B wake up, we got class in an hour" it was Lionel. " what?" How could we have class in an hour it was Friday I don't have any classes. " I thought it was Friday" I sit up and he chuckles. " Blue it's Wednesday, last night we came back after both our organizations studied and quizzed each other, said you were too tired to walk to your room, so we fell asleep watching criminal minds" he says as he was going into the bathroom. " you didn't cross?" I was so fucking confused. I hear him laugh. " two weeks, are you feeling okay, and who's Autumn? I heard you say autumn in your sleep" he asked and I check my phone and the time. It was indeed Wednesday now 55 minutes before one of my three classes today starts.

I then explained to him my weird dream and he assured me that they didn't want any red besides me. He even said he didn't even notice Autumn last night let alone know her name until now. I sigh sitting up, maybe I should sit out of class today and gather myself from that crazy dream. I sigh and get ready with Lionel and he grabs my bag for me and we walk to class. I was relieved that it was all a dream but if I reacted that badly to them adding someone of their own in my dream I wonder what would happen if they ever decided to in real life. I'll have to talk to Danny and Derrick on how they really felt when Lionel came into the picture.
