"he fucks like he wants to date me," i say, as we sit. bam about spits his ice cream out.
"bells!" he says shocked.
"what?" i almost laugh.
"out of no where much," he laughs.
"sorry," i smile.
"look forget about him tonight okay - you're hanging out with your bestie and we are gonna do fun stuff," he says.
"like what?" i ask.
"oh we could watch some horror movies, i have some glow in the dark skateboards that we could use on my skate park. what do you wanna do bells?" he asks.
"let's watch a movie - im kinda tired," i say, leaning back against the sofa.
"of course. what do you want?" he asks, pulling out some dvds. the exorcist. the silence of the lambs. nightmare on elm street. bam knows me too well, i absolutely love horror, i have since i was a kid. it's one of the things me and bam related on.
"the exorcist obviously," i smile. he puts it on and jumps back onto the sofa with me. he hands me a blanket and we both wrap up in it. i feel myself getting sleepy about 45 minutes into the movie and let myself fall asleep against bams shoulder. i've said it once and i'll say it again. bam is comfy. when i wake up the movies play screen is on and bam is also asleep, ice cream melted in his hand. i take the trash and throw it out before putting the whole blanket over bam so he can sleep properly. i go to the other couch and get myself a blanket. i decide to check my phone, 2 texts from sage, 17 texts from johnny, 14 missed calls from johnny. i look through sages messages first.wife

if you don't respond
i'm coming overyeah whatever i fucking doubt it. i put my phone down and put the film on quietly so i can actually watch it. i head to the kitchen and get some water and popcorn, while bams brother, jess, is in there.
"hey bella you alright?" he asks. i guess i have a look of concern on my face.
"yeah. just can't sleep," i smile a little.
"maybe watching horror movies doesn't help," he says, pointing to the tv.
"maybe," i laugh.
"well im gonna try and sleep. call me if you need anything," he says.
"thanks jess. sleep well," i smile, letting him leave. i head back out to the living room and watch the movie, passing the sleeping bam again. he's slumped over uncomfortably so i help lay him down gently, and put a pillow under his head and pull the blanket up. he stirs a little before settling back down. after about 30 minutes i'm starting to fall asleep again, trying to keep myself awake to actually finish the movie. there's a loud knock at the door. i ignore it because a stranger at the door at like 2am doesn't feel safe. the knocking continues so i grab one of bams bats.
"i got a bat - id suggest leaving," i shout through the door. there's no response but another knock at the door. "i'm being serious. i'll hit you."
another bang. i swing the door open ready to hit and it's knox.
"knoxville. my god. i almost battered you," i say, dropping my arms.
"well i needed to see you," he says, leaning against the doorframe.
"did you think for a second about answering me?" i complain.
"no," he says stepping into the house. i head out to the kitchen, him following behind.
"what are you doing here?" i ask, leaning the bat against the counter.
"bella you literally left telling no one where you were going," he says.
"ryan knew," i retort.
"give it a rest bella. you're being dramatic," he says, rolling his eyes.
"wowww. thank you. just really validating my feelings," i smile angrily.
"what feelings? you're upset over nothing," he complains.
"over nothing? johnny why don't you go ahead and flirt with the waitress again? you know what go date her," i raise my voice.
"i wasn't flirting with her," he scoffs.
"yes you were. i watched you look at her. you wanna act like my boyfriend but eye fuck someone else. okay go ahead, but you won't fuck with me," i speak frustrated.
"babe you're acting like a stuck my tongue down her throat - all i did was look at her. which wasn't my fault you saw how she was acting," he sighs.
"oh yeah right. wasn't your fault? johnny no one made you look at her. you did that. and i wasn't the only person to notice," i complain, rubbing my forehead.
"you're being totally over dramatic right now. it's not like we're dating," he spits out. i feel my heart almost shatter in my chest.
"you're right," i say quietly, "we're not."
"bells i - i shouldn't have said that, i do like you, im sorry," he sighs.
"knox i think you should leave," bam says coming into the kitchen.
"bam just stay out of this," johnny responds.
"dude this is my house," bam says.
"johnny just go home. we'll talk tomorrow," i sigh. my body just feels empty and numb. bam walks him to the door.
"are you okay?" he asks coming back in.
"just tired," i say. we head up to the bedrooms and head to bed.
