Taking a break part 2

Zach pov
Mom: Zach
Zach: what?!
Mom: Watch your mouth
I went in the living room
Zach: I'm sorry. I'm just worried about Kaylee. She's been ignoring me
Mom: I'm sure it's nothing
Zach: what do I do mom?
Mom: go and see her
My phone started ringing so I answered
Zach: hello
Kaylee: hi
Zach: did I do something wrong? You ignored all my calls and messages
Kaylee: sorry my head has been all over the place. Can you come over?
Zach: sure
Kaylee: I'm at Justin's
Zach: okay I'll be like 10

I jumped in the shower and threw on some clothes. I ran downstairs
Mom: where you off to?
Zach: see Kaylee
Mom: you need a lift?
Zach: yes please. Oh I'm gonna make her a gift basket
Mom: that's a good idea kiddo. We have a basket in the kitchen.
Zach: can we go to the mall?
Mom: sure
I ran upstairs and grabbed a sweatshirt and sprayed it with her favourite aftershave of mine. I put it in the basket. We went to the mall and I got her a pair of sneakers and a few sweatshirts. I got some sweets and Doritos as well as some Gatorades. we went into a perfume shop and I brought her lady million. We went to Justin's and mom left. I knocked on the door and Justin opened it.
Justin: come in. Kaylees upstairs
I walked in and went upstairs and walked into kaylees room. I gave her the basket and she kissed me
Kaylee: you didn't have to do this
Zach: I know but I wanted to cheer you up
We sat on her bed and she put her head on my shoulder
Kaylee: I'm sorry for ignoring you. It's just my heads been a mess and I wanted to be alone. I can't sleep. No matter how hard I try I just can't get more than a couple hours sleep and it's frustrating. I'm so tired.
Zach: have you been to see Sam?
Kaylee: yeah earlier. He's prescribed some sleeping pills
Zach: how about we watch a movie?
Kaylee: grown ups
Zach: sure. Whatever you want
She put it on and we laid down. Kaylee had her head on my chest cuddled up to me. About 10 minutes into the movie she fell asleep. I was just scrolling through instagram when someone walked in. It was Justin
Justin: oh nevermind.
Zach: what's up?
Justin: Jay and Hailey are here
Zach: you want me to wake her up?
Justin: no it's fine leave her to sleep. You okay staying up here with her?
Zach: yeah
Justin: you want me to bring you up anything?
Zach: A bottle of water would be good

Justin pov
I grabbed him a bottle of water and took it up before going back down.
Jay: I-I-is she okay?
Justin: she's fallen asleep on Zach
Hailey: at least she's sleeping
Jay: how d-d-did the appointment with sSam go?
Justin: he's given some sleeping pills and sessions are once a week. He also gave his work number in case she needs to talk to him. It seems she's having a bit of separation anxiety. She thinks that if she's away from Jay that somethings gonna go wrong
Hailey: that explains why she snapped when I asked her to go to her room.
Justin: yep. We're moving forward which is a good thing.
Hailey: we have some clothes and her meds
Justin: thanks. Jay how did your appointments go?
Jay: X-ray show g-good h-h-healing
He looked at hailey
Hailey: the breaks are healing so he should be getting his casts off in like 4 weeks. The stuttering is improving so that's good. We're on the right track
Justin: that's good.
The door opened and Connor walked in. He came over and wrapped his arms around me and gave me a kiss
Justin: hey baby how was work?
Connor: it was alright
Jay: hey Connor
Connor: how you doing Jay?
Jay: f-fine
Connor: where's Kaylee?
Justin: guest bedroom. She's staying here for a few days
Hailey: just to give us and her a break. She's lashing out because she hasn't been sleeping. We're hoping a change of scenery will help her.
Justin: Freddie wanted to speak to you about something
Connor: any idea what?
Justin: nope

Connor pov
I went upstairs to Freddie's room and him and Daisy were asleep. I took a picture and went to mine and Justin's room then jumped in the shower. After I put on my sweatpants I went back downstairs.
Justin: what do you want for dinner?
Connor: what if we order pizza?
Justin: yeah sure
Connor: okay just make sure you get a plain one for Daisy
Justin: they still asleep?
Connor: yep daisys out like a light.
Justin ordered pizza
Connor: I'm gonna go wake everyone up
Jay: can you l-leave Kaylee to sleep?
Connor: sure
Justin: Zachs also here
I went up and woke up Freddie and Daisy.
Freddie: Connor I need to speak to you?
Connor: can we talk after dinner?
Freddie: I need to talk to you. You said I can talk to you whenever and you'll listen
Connor: gimme 2 minutes okay and I'll be back
I went to Kaylees room and woke up Zach
Zach: mmm
Connor: we're getting pizza if you want some?
Zach: can you bring a few slices up?
Connor: yeah sure
Zach: thanks Connor
I went back to Freddie's room and he was pacing back and forth
Connor: Fred can you sit down? What's going on?
Freddie: erm please don't be mad
Connor: what's happened Fred?
Freddie: I had a call this morning. It was Calvin. He's out. He got out a couple days ago. Said he's sorry for everything that happened. He wants to meet me
Connor: what did you say back to that?
Freddie: that I'll speak to you. He wants to see you too
Connor: if it's something you wanna do then I'll be behind you. You know that. Whatever you wanna do I'll back you 100%
Freddie: I'll think about it
Connor: let me know what you decide
The doorbell went and I could hear Justin speaking and the door then shut
Connor: let's go get some pizza then
He ran downstairs and I followed after him. We ate pizza and I took some up to Zach before heading to bed.

Zach pov
I ate my pizza and Kaylee started to wake up.
Zach: hey beautiful
Kaylee: stinks
Zach: I know I just had pizza. You want some?
Kaylee: no thanks
My phones started blowing up. Izzy and mom were nonstop texting me.

Izzy
You need to come home now!

Zach
What's going on?

Izzy
There's news about Dad

I shot up.
Kaylee: are you okay?
Zach: yeah I just gotta go home
Kaylee: is everything okay?
Zach: it's about my dad
We both went downstairs and everyone was watching a movie.
Zach: hey thanks for letting me come over I gotta go home
Justin: you want a lift?
Zach: nah it's cool
I walked Zach to the door and gave him a kiss
Kaylee: let me know how it goes
He gave me another kiss. He left and I sat in between dad and Hailey.
Kaylee: I'm sorry for being horrible these last few days.
Jay: I-it's o-okay
Kaylee: it's not. I've been taking my frustrations out on you both especially you hailey. I shouldn't have said that you couldn't tell me what to do because you weren't my mom.
Hailey: it's okay Kaylee
Kaylee: it's not. You may not be my mom by blood but you're my mom by choice. I'm so lucky to have a mom like you.
I gave her a hug.
Kaylee: I love you
Hailey: I love you too kiddo. Me and your dad should get going. We brought over some clothes and your meds
Kaylee: when can I come home?
Hailey: whenever you want.
Kaylee: I want to stay here for a few days if that's okay
Hailey: take as long as you need kiddo
They left and I went up to bed
