Joanna 's POV

What happened? The last thing I can remember is falling down and blacking out. Well at least I felt cozy in this big fuzzy bed. A sudden noise spooked me but it turned out to be my stomach rubbling. Before I could realize it, I don't recognize this room at all ." Where am I?" I lifted myself on my elbows. A damp towel fell off my head. I felt my legs wobble a little as I tried to lift them over the side. I walked to the door and slowly opened it. Wow it was a nice place though. I walked down the strange hallway passing through the kitchen but stopping in my tracks.

I look over to a stove with a pot of what seems to be a steaming soup. I forced myself to keep going, repressing my hunger down. I walked down the strange hallway more and... back muscles? A glass room with a mini gym inside. A topless man was doing some hot pull ups. In the background poetic justice by Kendrick Lamar was playing. I stared for a few minutes kinda of enjoying the view but I decided to find out who this was. As I opened the door, I yelled. "Who are you and why have you brought me here?" The man got down and slipped on a sweatshirt.

As he turned around, I was speechless. I cant believe I just hit on a girl." Hudson?" Why would she be here? Many thoughts went through my mind all at once." Why did you bring  me here and what exactly do you want from me?" She took a step forward while I took one back." I called your parents while you were out cold. No one was available to pick you up and I wasn't just going to leave you there on the floor. And bad storms are happening this whole weekend.... just trust me until Wednesday. Until the storms will disappear, your parents will come for you." I stood there motionless. She's out of her mind.

" Hudson, do you know how crazy that sounds? How am I supposed to trust you when I don't even know anything about you. You don't even know anything about me and you want to take care of me?" I gave her an annoyed look." I actually know a lot of things about you. Probably more than you think. I've always paid attention to your every little detail. Like when you get mad, you drink warm milk while needing to be held. When you get annoyed, you listen to music. And when you're in a good mood, you like to go on walks or driving. Other than that you like the color white. You love reading by the window when it's raining ☔. I probably know more about you than your bestfriends."

The word "bestfriends" stood in my mind. All the memories of when they told everyone my deep darkest secret. That I am intersex. I exited my thoughts and faced Hudson. Even though she's sounds crazy, I'm stuck her till monday so I guess I could trust her a little.

" I guess I'll have to trust you but no funny business." She smiled." Do you want some soup? You must be hungry. I mean you were out for a few hours." I hesitantly nodded. We walked to a black marble dining room." I'll be right back," then she walked out. She does have a nice place, I'll give her that but why would she want to take care of me? I don't deserve this, I'm an outcast now. A freak to everyone I once knew. Everyone stared at me with disgust.

Why doesn't Hudson? Speaking of Hudson, she walked in with two steaming plates and mugs. She set the plates down and handed me a mug. The soup looked amazing. She laughed and passed me a spoon. I took no time digging in.

After I devoured the soup, I needed to use the bathroom." Where's the bathroom?" She pointed down the hall. As I walked down the hall, I noticed some pictures. I noticed one was down. Should I pick it up? Maybe not. I tried to leave it alone but I couldn't resist. I picked it up and realized a little note with hearts.

I couldn't help but realize you and me have many things in common. You have a cool personality :). I like when we play together. I like holding your hand when I get scared. I like when you hugged me to cover me from the sprinkler. I like when you lifted me up and I put my head in your neck and you were so ticklish. I would wrap my legs around your waist and you called me your little monkey. This is a love letter from me to you because I like you. P.S. my mom helped me with this.

From your friend,

Joanna Williams

I wrote this? No way. This was from kindergarten. I could tell because of the date. That must be a coincidence because I like a little boy named Mattie. Wait what is Hudson's first name? As soon as I put the frame down, a bell rang. I walked toward where the sound was coming. Hudson was speaking to some girl at the door.

" I brought cookies and went to your house but you weren't there and your mom told me you probably would be here," a girl said shakily." Thank you Emma that's very sweet of you. Come in, you must be cold," Emma the library girl? Emma quietly said hi as they walked pass me. A few minutes passed and they came back." You'll have to stay the night, the storm is getting worse," Emma instantly blushed." Well you could sleep in my room and I'll sleep in the living room," Emma grabbed Hudson's arm." You c-could s-sleep with me. I get scared of the thunder," she stuttered out.

" Are you sure?" Emma's face was beyond red. She nodded." Only if you're okay with me sleeping with you." Emma nodded nervously." Why don't you head up first and I'll meet you there in a little. I'm gonna let Joanna know where I'll be." Emma quickly headed up the stairs." We'll be upstairs if you need anything," then Mattie went up the stairs. I left to my room and climbed in bed. I turned off the little bright light. I faced the ceiling and let the darkness seep in.

Hudson's POV

11:30 pm

I was still so wide awake as I couldn't help it but hear whimpering and it wasn't Emma. She goofly smiling and all cuddled up against me. I gently crawled out and quickly kissed Emma's forehead. I quietly left the room and went to where the sound was coming from. It lead to the room where Joanna was staying in. She was probably having nightmares. I quietly opened the door and closed it behind me. When I could see her face, there were tears falling from her closed eyes. I crawled in the bed and pulled her into a hug. I soon regretted it as my heart almost raced out of my chest. She buried her head into my chest and held her hands by her face.

I was still awake while I watched Joanna sleeping in peace finally after hours of crying. I looked at the clock four am. I gently crawled out of the bed until I felt a hand gripped my wrist. She was still asleep. I searched around for... ah ha. My teddy. I grabbed it and replaced my hand with it. I left silently, rushing back up the stairs. I creep back into the bed with Emma who was still deeply sleeping.

7 am

I went downstairs and made a mini breakfast for Joanna and Emma. I took Emma's breakfast to the living room along with mine. I took Joanna's with some medicine and left it on her nightstand. I left sadly jogging to get Emma. I aimed myself and jumped onto Emma." Hudson... Is it morning already?" I nodded. I walk over picked up Emma while she squealed." Hudson let me go," she tried tickling me but it didn't work. I set her down on my sofa and handed her the breakfast. I flipped on the telly and gave Emma a quick playful cheek kiss. As I left she turned red and held her cheek. She's so gullible it made me laugh.

Now I just have to wait for Joanna..
