"I think I'm pregnant

"I think I'm pregnant." Capri groans and I laugh.

"With a food baby, of course." She quickly adds.

"You're the one who suggested we order everything off the menu." I tease and she rolls her eyes.

"Well, you shouldn't have listened to me." She mutters as she lays down next to me.

Capri somehow managed to get me to stargaze with her.

Now personally, the idea of sitting outside when it's like 30 degrees outside makes me sick but this girl could ask me to run around a mall naked and I would happily do it.

She has this hold on me that I've never experienced before.

Not even with Lily.

Pri and I grabbed a bunch of blankets and pillows from her house and now we're lying in my truck bed all snuggled up and looking at the sky.

"Isn't the whole point of stargazing to watch the stars?" I ask.

"Yeah." She laughs.

"I don't see any stars though-"

"Shh! You're ruining the moment." She says as she places a finger on my lips.

I watch as she stares at the sky in awe as if it's the most exciting thing in the world.

"Knox! You're supposed to be looking up." She says and I laugh.

"I can't help it...I like looking at you."

Her face heats up as she pulls the blanket up higher.

I can't even begin to explain the relief I felt when she finally talked to me.

I've spent the last month fucking waiting for her to say something to me.

There were so many times I was tempted to just go up to her and talk to her myself but the guys always convinced me not to.

They kept telling me that she needed space and even though I knew they were right, it was killing me deep down.

I spent all my time just focusing on football and working out.

I didn't go to any parties, I guess I just wanted her to know that I am 100% serious about her and no one else.

I also spent a lot of that time researching Lily's case.

That's how I found out that none of it made sense.

I mean, first of all, she never got a trial.

She was just sentenced.

There was never any clear evidence against her other than the fact that she was passed out in the driver's seat thanks to my dad.

I've done so much fucking research, I might as well be an investigator.
