"Are you excited to go home?" Mom asks me as we turn down our street.

"You have no idea." I say.

Dad pulls into the driveway and parks the car. I get out of the car faster than anyone else, and go inside.

"Welcome home!" Everyone yells.

"Oh my gosh you guys!" I say starting to tear up.

Everyone in my family is here, along with my friends and Jesse.

Caitlyn and Olivia run up to me and hug me.

"We missed you so much." They say.

"I missed you guys too."

Maddie walked up to me next. It's been four months, and she's already really showing.

"You look amazing." I tell her as she hugs me.

"Thanks. I missed you." She says.

She lets me go and I hug the rest of my family. Lastly, I get to Jesse. I can't help but cry when I see him. I walk over to him and hug him like I'm never letting go.

"I'm so glad you're okay." He says as I hug him.

"I missed you so much it hurt." I tell him before I let him go.

Everyone started to scatter around. The boys, except Jesse, went in the backyard to play football, mom and my aunts stayed in the living room, the girl cousins went downstairs to play, and Caitlyn, Olivia, Maddie, Jesse, and I went upstairs to my room.

When I opened the door to my room, I looked around and smiled. I'm so glad to finally be home.

"Feel good to be home?" Caitlyn asks me as everyone finds somewhere to sit.

"I've never wanted anything more." I say. "So how's life been for you guys?"

"Honestly, no one's really felt like doing anything without you. We've all been really worried." Olivia says.

"So nothing happened while I was taken?"

"Well, I found out if I'm having a boy or a girl." Maddie begins.

"Well? Are you going to just sit there, or are you going to tell us?!" Caitlyn says to her laughing a little.

"I'm having a girl!" She finishes.

"Oh my gosh!" Olivia, Caitlyn, and I yell. Jesse kinda sits there unamused, but he's a guy so I didn't expect him to get excited about this.

"Have you guys started thinking about names?" I ask.

"We were thinking about MacKenzie."

"Aw, that's so cute!"

We catch up for a little while then someone knocks on my door.

"Can I have my girlfriend back now?" Trevor asks as he walks in my room.

"I guess so." I say trying to sound upset, but then I laugh a little and it gives it away. It's not like I'm not going to see her anytime soon, she lives with us now.

"My mom just texted me and told me she wants me home soon, so I should probably get going." Caitlyn says as she stands up.

I stand up to wake her out. When we get to the door, she hugs me.

"I'm so glad you're back and you're okay." She says. "I'll see you tomorrow, okay?"

"Defiantly." I say before she leaves.

I walk back upstairs to my room. I slow down a little when I hear Jesse and Olivia talking.

"You have to tell her Jesse. You can't keep something like that from her." Olivia tells him.

"And when would you like me to tell her? She just got home and she's happy. I don't want to ruin that already." He whisper yells at her.

"It's going to hurt her even more if she hears it from someone else."

"Hears what from someone else?" I ask as I walk into my room.

I look at Olivia and she looks at Jesse right away.

"Nothing, it's not important." Jesse says.

Olivia's phone rings and she walks into the hall to answer it.

"Am I ever going to know what you guys were just talking about?" I ask Jesse.

"Maybe."

Olivia walks back into my room.

"That was my mom, she said it's getting late and I need to go home. I'll see you guys tomorrow." She says hugging me, then leaving my room.

"Are you really going to go to school tomorrow? You haven't even been at home for 24 hours yet." Jesse asks.

"I'm defiantly going to school tomorrow. I've missed too much already. And besides, I have to go back sooner or later, I don't want to put it off for too long." I answer.

"I just don't want someone to say something to you tomorrow that could upset you."

"And what would be said to me that would upset me?" I ask him curiously, trying to go back to what him and Olivia were talking about earlier.

He takes a deep breath.

"I might as well just tell you now so you don't find out tomorrow."

"You're worrying me."

"It's nothing to worry about, but you might get a little mad." He begins. "About a month after you were abducted, I went to the park to clear my head. Ali showed up and we were talking about how much I missed you. Well, I got too caught up in everything, and I kissed her."

My heart drops.

"You did what?!" I yell at him.

"I'm not done yet. You're really going hate me for this, and I'm so sorry. I just really needed someone and she was there for me, I never wanted to hurt you."

"I don't know if I even want to know what you're about to say." I say madly.

"Ali and I didn't talk for about a week or two after we kissed. But one day she started texting me and we started talking again."

"Can you just get to the point already?" I ask rudely.

"Ali and I got back together in the time you were gone."

Hope you liked!!

Sorry for not updating sooner; I was really busy with work and softball this week and didn't really have time for anything else.

BUT I MET R5 LAST NIGHT!!!! That's another reason why I haven't updated, I've been out of town since Sunday night and just got back a couple hours ago.

The concert was amazing and so much fun. I can't wait to do it again in March.

I think that's it!

Thanks for reading!! :)
