Leah's POV
Nina stayed with me the entire night. I couldn't sleep after what happened. I was laying on my bed with my head in Nina's lap. She would say that I'm safe now and caress my face.
"Thanks, Nina, for staying with me. Fall asleep with me. You must be tired."
I made room for her to lay down. We always use to sleep together when we were younger and got under the blankets and told stories to each other.
We slept through the morning and woke up in the afternoon to Nina's cellphone ringing.
"Hey, Jarett. Yea I'll send you the address. Ok bye."
"Is it okay if he comes over?"
I chuckled. "Of course."
"How are you doing?" She asked.
"Thanks to you, I'm doing just fine." I smiled at her.
We got out of bed and I let her borrow my clothes and makeup so she can look good for Jarett.
"When did you and Jarett meet?" I asked, fixing her hair.
"Friday night. At a club. We ended up dancing together and I thought he was so hot." She squealed like a little girl.
"What a coincidence." I said.
Jarett arrived and he and Nina acted like shy, high school kids.
"Leah, I'm so sorry about Landon. I talked to him yesterday and slipped him a few sleeping pills. He's going to be asleep for the entire day."
I couldn't help but laugh that he got him to swallow sleeping pills. I wonder how.
"Don't ask me how I did it. Trust me,
You don't want to know." It's like he read my mind."Make yourself at home, Jarett. I'm sure Nina will enjoy your company." I winked at Nina.
I excused myself and went out to grab some fresh air.
I thought about telling my dad what happened between me and Landon, but I think it's better if he doesn't know.
He will kill Landon, literally.

Sunday morning I woke up to a loud banging on the door.
I grabbed the thing closest to me that I could defend myself with, my hairspray bottle.
I looked through the peephole and I let out huff. It was Landon.
"Landon what do you want?" I said through the door.
"I want to apologize. Please open the door." He begged.
"Apology noted, acceptance is pending." (Favorite line from Hawaii Five-0.)
"Leah, please. Hear me out." He banged on the door.
"Fine. Just wait until I get changed."
I looked at my night clothing which consisted of a thin nightie that barely covered my ass.
I quickly changed into my yoga pants and a crop top. I brushed my hair and walked back to open the door.
"Hey." He softly smiled.
I didn't say anything and walked into my living room. He closed the door and followed me.
"I'm so sorry for what happened. I had a couple drinks and I know that won't justify my actions."
I crossed my arms. "You were a whole 'nother person, Landon."
"I went to see Nicholas and he told me things that made me angry and furious." His jaw clenched.
