I must have drifted off short after then, because I woke the next day, curled up in my duvet.
I was typically an early riser, daddy issues I guess. I looked over at the clock to see the time was 7:34, a reasonable time for me to get up and ready. I had planned to meet Hannah today for breakfast so I put on a flowy sun dress and slicked my hair back. I wasn't a person who was very much into makeup, especially on hot days like today, so I just used bronzer, blush and mascara. It was all I needed.
It didn't take me long to get ready today so I managed to go into the kitchen to make a brew and a bowl of cereal, just some cheap off brand shit Jake picked up from ASDA yesterday. He was so tight he couldn't even splash out for Kelloggs.
I sat at the breakfast bar, daydreaming about god-knows what until I heard the slight creak of the door open and close behind me, I spun around on my stool, knowing exactly who it was.
"Walk of shame?" I said with a giggle, stopping him in his tiptoe tracks.
"Hardly." He responded, redirecting his body to sit next to me. "I'm sure you can probably guess what happened um, yesterday" he said hesitantly.
"yeah...good for you bro." I said with a small smile, which quickly faded as I realised he had a slight look of fear in his face.
"yeah thanks Hayls, its just- the thing is...the condom split" he hesitated an I just held his hand allowing him to carry on. "and I um- I didn't tell her..." he said grimacing at his cruel mistake.
"Jake..." I said
"Yeah I know, dick move. I swear I was going to but just as I was about to see cuddled into me and told me how much she likes me and I really like her like a lot Hayley and I didn't want to scare her off..." He said leaning his head on my shoulder.
"Jake, I am going out in about an hour and a half and I don't know where the fuck your knob head room-mate has disappeared to, you will be alone, invite her round, explain everything. She will understand." I said lifting his head up so that he was making eye contact with me.
I kissed his cheek and watched as he texted his mystery girl, getting a quick response. I left not long after and found a booth at the back of the omelette shack and waited for Hannah's arrival. At least that was until a message popped up on my phone: Hey hunny! so sorry i'm going to be about an hour late, I have to do something. You can either order and wait, I wont be long or feel free to leave, we can reschedule. sorry for the hassle xx she was so sweet and genuine, at least she texted me, a lot of decent people wouldn't even go that far, so I waited, and as expected she wasn't that long.
"Okay, explain" I said just as she sat down with a small smirk on my face.
"Okay so basically I had this amazing date yesterday, he is so tall and dreamy and funny, we laughed the whole time. And then we went back to mine to...you know." she gave me a wink and a huge smile came on my face with glee for her. "But that's not even the craziest part, he texted me earlier telling me to come over.." oh no, is this what I think it is. "anyways he told me that the condom split and he was too scared to tell me, so that's fun!!"
"Wait Hannah, what's this guys name?"
"Jake Phillips...kind of a player name, which explains why he didn't mention him maybe impregnating me" she face palmed and I sat, face like a slapped fish.
"Wait so if you guys work out, you would be like my sister how cool is that?" I said with a tight smile.
"Hayley what are you on about, you weirdo." she laughed disregarding my comment.
"Jake is my older brother" I said quickly, looking down at my omelette.
"SHIT I just told you all about that sex stuff, god I'm so embarrassed." she covered her face.
"Hannah, babe chill. He already told me all this stuff anyways, obviously I didn't know it was you. Who do you think told him to tell you about the condom? He would have never mentioned it if I'd have left him to it" I chuckled at her still, covered face.
We carried on chatting about her and Jake, I could tell that she was censoring parts which was nice but also unnecessary. As much as its weird hearing about my brother's sex life, we were a naked family. I've heard it all before.
"So what are you going to do?"
"Well my period is due soon so I guess I'm just going to wait and see , I just hope I'm not pregnant." she said looking down at her hands. I grabbed her hands and gave her a reassuring smile.
"I'm sure everything will work out, Han."
We finished eating our omelettes and then Hannah drove me home, i invited her in and she accepted.
"I'm home!!" I called as I walked through the front door,
"Yippee" Nate responded sarcastically, I just rolled my eyes.
"That's Nate." I introduced him to Hannah. She gave him a smile and a wave and he waved back, nice of him to be polite to her and a dick to me.
"Jake!! Your booty call's here!!" I called and Hannah gave me a death glare before returning her attention to a very sweaty topless Jake.
"Hey." He said walking up to Hannah and pulling her into a hug. "Sorry I've just been doing a work out, you staying for tea?" he said holding her hand.
"uh yeah, yeah definitely." she said, a bit shy.
"Great, I'll go get showered and then come see you. Wait, why are you here?" he said, realising what had happened.
"She's the friend I went for breakfast with, you picked a good one bro" I said slapping his shoulder as I walked to my room, seen as I wasn't planning on going out anywhere I put my long silk pjs on and tied my hair up in a bun. When I returned back to the living room I saw Nate and Hannah chatting on the sofa, I sat down on the arm chair next to them.
"What you talking about?" I said joining in the conversation, he rolled his eyes but answered me anyways.
"The possibility of time travel" He said.
"Oh yeah that's a fun one, I loved the time travel aspect in Avengers: Endgame, it changed my whole perception of the subject" I said and he looked at me impressed.
"Didn't take you for a Marvel girl, maybe we have more in common than you think." he said and smirked at me.
"yeah yeah, dickhead. Don't push it"
