Disorderly Conduct (ON HOLD)

Chapter 8

"She's finally asleep." Mel sighs as she closes the door to Kylie's room. "Thank god." Ruby leans over the counter. "Hey, at least we came home when we did." Mel rubs her back. Ruby nods. "You're right. Oh, i gotta let Malia know Kylie's ok now." She takes her phone out. "How do you have her number? When did she give it to you?" "She didn't, i went through Ky's phone and found it." Mel rolls her eyes. "Of course you did. I'm gonna shower, did you wanna join me?" She smirks. Ruby laughs. "In a second, let me just text her real quick." Mel nods and kisses her cheek. "Ok, I'll warm up the water." She leaves as Ruby texts Malia.

Malia was a mess. Morgan had gone to bed already, since she had class in the morning, leaving her alone with all her thoughts and emotions. Did she screw up? What did she do? Did she touch her where Matt touched her? Fucking shit. That's probably it. She's so stupid, of course that's the reason. That's why she had a panic attack. She takes out her phone, ready to send an apology text when it vibrates in her hand.

Unknown - Ky is sleeping now. She's fine but i would wait till tomorrow to see her

Unknown - this is Ruby btw

She saves her number before she replies back.

Maliaaaa - is she ok? I feel awful 😞

Repunzal🦎 - she's been better but she'll be fine

Repunzal🦎 - also, what's with the lizard?

Maliaaaa - didn't Repunzal have a lizard for a sidekick?

Repunzal🦎 - u truly r something else Malia 😂

Maliaaaa - 🫤

Repunzal🦎 - I'll have her text u in the morning, ok?

Maliaaaa - please?

Ruby doesn't respond after that so Malia turns off her phone and tries to get some rest. She ends up tossing and turning all night, barely getting any sleep. Her alarm goes off as she falls out of bed. When did she even fall asleep? Probably passed out from exhaustion. She quickly stands and turns it off. Kylie. "Fuck." She quickly gets dressed and runs to her dorm. She knocks on the door and anxiously waits. "I swear to fucking god, whoever you are, you better have a good ass-" the door opens. "Oh, Malia. Hey." Mel sighs. "Hey, is Kylie awake yet?" She asks. "Nah, she's still sleeping. Which is what i should be doing right now. Come in, go cuddle so i can go back to my girlfriend." Malia blushes as she walks in. "Oh, uh, just to let you know. It's probably best to be the little spoon for now." Mel suggests. Malia nods. "Got it." She goes to Kylie's room and slowly opens the door. She notices Kylie asleep in bed, curled up in a ball. She frowns before she gets under the covers and joins her. She slowly opens Kylie's arms and slides in under. She lies awake, staring at Kylie for a bit. She couldn't believe someone as wonderful as Kylie would have such a bad past like that. "It's not polite to stare." Kylie mumbles. "I'm not staring, I'm simply admiring your beauty." Malia smiles. "Mhm, it's still staring." Kylie mumbles with her eyes still closed. Malia smiles softly. "I'm sorry." She whispered. "Don't be. I'm sorry you had to witness that." Malia touches her cheek.

"Kylie, you have nothing to be sorry for. That was all me. I noticed you were uncomfortable but i thought it was cause you were nervous. I didn't think-" she sighs. "I'm sorry." Kylie shakes her head. "I don't blame you." "I promise I'll get better at that. At noticing your little tells and whatnot." Kylie sighs as she looks down at her lap. "He was behind me when he did it." She whispered. She looks up. "I was sitting between his legs, he was behind me when he reached around and stuck his hand down my underwear." Kylie lets out a shaky breath. "Did he actually....?" Malia doesn't dare finish that question but Kylie knows what she meant. "Almost. I stopped him. That's when he got sexually frustrated and left. I later found out that he cheated on me." Malia holds her hand. "I promise I will never do that. We'll go at your pace from now on. However fast or slow. I just wanna be with you." Kylie smiles and kisses her softly. "Thank you." She whispered.

They spend the rest of the morning just cuddling and talking. Around noon, they were getting hungry so they decided to double date with Mel and Ruby for lunch. They all go to a restaurant nearby. Nothing too fancy. They order and soon fall into casual conversation. "There's no way that happened." Malia gasps. "Oh yeah, Ky was a little daredevil back in high school." Ruby smirks. "And let me tell you, the whole thing was perfection. You might be able to look it up online, I'm sure someone posted it on YouTube." Kylie blushes. "So what am i looking up? Girl runs around school in bra and underwear?" Malia teases. Kylie shoves her playfully. "You will do no such thing." "Ooh, looks like i struck a nerve. Did i guess it right? Is that the actual title?" She smirks. "Ky?" They all look up and see Matthew standing there. Kylie quickly looks away while Mel charges at him. She grabs him by the collar and shoves him into a pillar nearby. "Mel!" They all stand. "You got a lot of nerve coming up in here, calling her by her nickname. That's reserved for friends and family only. Last i checked, you're neither." Ruby places a hand on her arm. "Baby...." "Please, i just wanna talk to Ky." She squeezes his throat. "-Lie! Kylie! Please?!" Now the thing about Mel. She may be small, barely 4'11, but she is strong. Boy, was she stronger than she looked. "You give me one good reason why i shouldn't crush your windpipe right now." Mel growls. "Music, please." Kylie places her hand on her shoulder. They both share a look before she lets the poor boy go. No one calls her Music anymore, only Kylie. Even Ruby didn't call her that. It was their thing. "Get out of my sight." "Please, can we just talk?" He looks at Kylie. Kylie glances at Mel, who shrugs. "On you babes. We'll be here." Kylie nods before they walk off. Malia glares at him the entire time. "You think she'll be ok?" Ruby asks. "She fucking better be or I'll kill him." Mel mumbles.

"Kylie I'm really sorry about everything that happened. I regret all of it. I mean it. I just feel so guilty. Could you ever forgive me?" He begs. Maybe this is what she needed. Maybe forgiving him might help heal some old wounds. It might help clear the air and help her prepare for the future, whatever it holds, hopefully a certain curly haired girl. "I forgive you." She sighs. "You do?" He asks. "Yes, i want to move on from this. I don't want to feel this way anymore." She admits. Matt smiles. "Great! Thank you! I promise, I'll never do it again." "Whoa, whoa! I said i forgive you, i never said I'll take you back. And besides, I don't feel that way about you anymore. I've moved on." She sighs. "With who?" "That's none of your business. You wanted my forgiveness and I gave it to you. But I'm not getting back together with you." "Kylie, please. I've changed. I promise. And that's good. Maybe things will be different with your next girlfriend. But not me. Like i said I've moved on. You should do the same. Look, i should really get back to my friends. I'm sorry." Kylie walks back to her table and sits. "Hey, everything ok?" Malia scoots closer and rubs her arm. To anybody else, it would have just looked like a friend comforting another friend. But he saw the look in her eyes. Those eyes were anything but friendly. And he didn't like it.
