I held my stomach as we drove to the hospital. I didn't like this. It was a very uncomfortable feeling.

"Stassie! Tell me what you did! Distract me"! I said as I squeezed my eyes shut.

Stassie looked down, "It's stupid. I regret it so much."

Julissa leaned her head on my seat, "It's hilarious."

I faced Julissa, "Julissa just because your parents can pay your way out of shit doesn't mean Stassie can."

Stassie sighed, "The Bus Driver. We went to his house. We pretended to be strippers sent by friends. And we uh. Attacked him."

Julissa laughed, "He started crying"!

I stared at them, "Are you guys stupid? Stassie! You can go to prison for that shit"!

"I know! It's just not fair! He's using Cliff to get money and I wanted him to feel as bad as I felt." Stassie replied.

"Im sorry Stassie. It's a horrible situation but you don't get your anger out like that. Okay? Next time just talk to me." I said soothingly.

Julissa sat up, "Dalia you should've been there. I literally kicked his ass in heels. And when I pulled out the gun which was fake don't worry he started crying and was like I'll drop the charges. And I was like that's not enough we want you to drop dead." She stumbled over her words drunk.

I faced Julissa, "So you gonna tell me what happened with James? There's a reason to why you drank so much."

Julissa stopped laughing and looked out the window, "Nothing happened."

I felt another wave of cramping and I flinched, "Tell me! Distract me"!

"He said he missed me. And I was like yeah I missed you too. And that he was grateful for what I did. And then he asked me if I was in a relationship and I said no. And it's just." She paused, "just weird. I don't know why he can still make me feel something for him. I wish I could've just moved on. I had to leave I knew if I stayed talking with him I would've gone back to him." Julissa replied.

"You don't want to get back together with him"? I asked.

She sighed, "I don't want to hurt him. Ever since I've moved back to Mexico things have gotten dangerous. The last thing I want is for James to get dragged into this mess." She said holding her head.

"That's really kind of you. To sacrifice your love to protect someone." I said squeezing her hand.

She slowly pulled her hand away, "No it's not. It's pathetic. I don't like the position of vulnerability I'm in."

I laughed, "Me either."

"Julissa listen. I think you should get back together with James. The universe keeps bringing you guys together and a lot of years from now you're gonna regret it. Every day I regret not spending more time with Cliff and I don't wish that on anyone." Stassie said.

I know that she was talking to Julissa but her words stuck with me. She was right. And this stupid attitude I was having with Kirk wasn't right.

I love him and he loves me.

"We're here." Said Stassie.

We started climbing out and we met up with Kirk. He took my hands and helped me walk inside.

"How are you feeling"? Kirk asked.

"Like I'm about to push a kid out of me." I said half joking half terrified.

Kirk smirked, "You've got this. Come on let's go."

We were walking down the hall and I looked up at him.
