The Boy Trapped

Chapter 21

Nyxon's POV
"What's wrong? Why are you mentioning her?"

"If she was alive...would I lose you?"

"Woah, woah, woah. Slow down. Back up. Look at me."

I used my right index finger to lift her head up.

"What's going on?"

"I have no idea. It just....popped into my head, I guess."

"Do you know why?"

She shook her head.

"Would I lose you?"

"No. Calm down."

"Well she's part of your trauma right? You didn't get to go to her funeral."

"It hurts. It really does. Baby what's wrong? Who told you what? I swear if my brother told you something, I'm decking him."

She looked down.

"Colette who said something?"

"Never mind."

"No tell me. I need to know who, I have to yell at."

"Y-your cousin."

"Which cousin?"

"Oscar."

"Of course, he's the one who, put that in your head. What'd he say?"

"You probably loved her more than me and you wouldn't think twice about leaving me."

He's dead.

"I love you, more than I loved her."

"Really?"

I nodded.

"You've been there for me. You know what I've gone through, and yet you stayed. Masie probably would've ran."

"You think so?"

"Yeah. I probably would've lost her anyway. Plus she already had a boyfriend."

"Are you just telling me things, I wanna hear?"

"No no. I mean this. Yes, I lost her and it sucks. I have you now. Also...I'm pretty sure...she sent you to me."

"Huh?"

"On my first day in school, you walked right up to me. You were so nice right away. She must've known, I needed someone in my life."

"Yo-you think so?"

"Would I ever lie to you?"

"Never."

"Exactly."

She yawned.

"I was going to make you breakfast but...you should rest."

She sat up.

"You were going to make me breakfast?!"

"Yeah. It was supposed to be a surprise. I heard you scream, and ran up here."

"C-can you still do that? Please?"

I smiled.

"Sure."

I stood up and went to the kitchen.

Colette's POV
I jumped outta bed and ran to the kitchen. I jumped onto a side of the kitchen counter.

"So what are you making?"

"What do you want?"

"Food."

"Oh ha ha wise ass. Seriously. What do you want me to make you?"

I started scanning his body.

"Uh Cole? Earth to Colette."

"You're really hot."

"Uh thanks? You are too?"

"Oh! I've also been thinking."

"Oh god. What now?"

"I want a baby too."

His eyes widened.

"You do?"

"Yep!"

His face turned red.

"Uhh. Uhh...erm..."

He cleared his throat. He didn't say anything else. He just went back to cooking.

"Sooo we should start trying a lot."

"Cole..you just told me, you were assaulted. Now you're talking about sex. Did I miss something?"

"Eh. Not really."

"Not really?"

He turned off the stove and walked in front of me. He put his hands next to me.

"Spill."

I started playing with his necklace.

"Baby?"

He used his left index finger to lift my head up.
