belly barged into kaias room, "kaia! wake up now!" she said shaking the girl urgently
kaia opened her eyes and rubbed them, "what the hell?" she said still half asleep
belly sat down on the bed, "i have to tell you something"
kaia sat up, looking at her with her eyes closed, "what belly?"
"i kissed jeremiah last night"
that woke kaia up immediately, she shot open her eyes "what?!" she yelled
"shh, shh! quiet!" belly shooshed "keep it down! the whole house doesn't need to find out!"
kaia rubbed the side of her forehead, "okay, but.. what happened? where? how?"
kaia wasn't really mad she was just shocked, she knew something had been going on between them, jeremiah had been more present in bellys life so far this summer, she just didn't know it was this much
belly chuckled, "okay, calm down"
she paused, "it was in the pool last night.. one thing led to another and.."
kaia put her hand up, "and what about conrad? does he know?"
belly shook her head, "no, he doesn't. honestly, i don't know anything thats happening right now, even my dream life is complicated"
"complicated how? what?" kaia said lowering her eyebrows, confused
"i.. i dreamt about kissing jeremiah in bed and then it switched to conrad and then back to jeremiah and they were both saying stuff about how im meant to be with them"
kaia just stared at her, "girl, you are in some deep shit right now"
"everythings gotten more complicated ever since that kiss, a kiss i can't stop thinking about, it's literally invading my dreams kaia" she explained
kaia shook her head, "you better figure this out, and soon" kaia put her finger up "don't be messing around with my brothers, okay? i don't want either of them to get hurt"
belly nodded, "yeah yeah, of course"
