The Mount Hotel...Indiana

When we arrived back at the hotel I was mentally exhausted and emotionally drained.
Those papers and that picture were enough to fill me with rage. I couldn't understand why I hadn't been told about this. It's really not that hard to just spit it out.

When I opened the door of our hotel room, I saw our luggage on the floor.

"We are leaving. Someone recognized me again. They are in this hotel somewhere. Jessica rapidly said, coming from our room.

Without further thinking we were checked out within minutes. We couldn't risk anymore people recognizing her.

"Did you guys find anything?" Jessica asked once we were on the road. I could feel Spencer's gaze me.

"Hello?" Jessica pushed.

"Jacky and Dan were once married," Spencer blurted out. I'm not gonna lie. I was expecting Jessica to go on a rampage about it but instead she just sank in her seat and kept quiet. I appreciated it though. I wasn't in the mood to talk. That's why I ignored Jacky's many calls.

Spencer's apartment...California

When we arrived in California I didn't want to go to Dan's house so I stayed at Spencer's. I was more than surprised to see Christian there. Apparently they are roommates.

I woke up today feeling deflated. Maybe it was because of last nights nightmare. Jacky featured besides Dan's. That put our already shaky relationship on thin ice.

Christian was the one who woke me up while I was having the nightmare. He stayed with me the rest of the night.

"Morning," Christian greeted with a shy, awkward smile.

"Hi."

"Everyone is still asleep," he said. He was being so fucking awkward. "But you already knew that since the house is quiet."

"Mmm. Yeah," I was surprised I that I actually chuckled at him.

"How are you feeling?" He seemed concerned.

"Like a million dollars," I sarcastically say. He didn't need to know anything. Yet.

"Right. So what are your plans for today? We could hangout together. If you wanted."

"Yeah. We could do that," I smiled at him.

"Awesome. I'll get ready and we'll leave at around noon," then he walked out of the kitchen the same time Jessica walked in. Clearly I can't get any peace and quiet.

"Hey babe. What are you doing today? We could go out," she offered.

"Christian already got me busy. We are going out," I said taking a spoon of cereal into my mouth.

"You move fast best friend!" She squealed.

I choked on my cereal and mouthed a confused "excuse me?''

"I'm not that stupid okay. I know you guys shared a bed last night. And he likes you Kate. It's a bit too obvious."

She was right. He showed all the signs of an infatuation. He was nervous talking to me at the party and now. While we were sleeping I could see him in the dark trying to touch me but everytime he lifted his hand, he would chicken out of it. I won't like to myself. I do fancy him, but life is too hectic to get involved in a romantic relationship.

"We shared a bed as friends. And what makes you think he likes me?"

"Fuck Kate. Why must you overthink everything! I have spent a lot of time with him since you guys met at the gym. I knew he took a liking to ya so I asked him and he said yes," she simply stated.

"Of course you did," I wasn't really surprised. This is Jessica we are talking about.

"Well I will live you to prep for your date with Christian. Don't get frisky," she winked at me and left the kitchen. I sighed and followed her actions.

While getting ready for.the day, I couldn't help but think about what Jessica had said. Christian likes me. But I also couldn't ignore the fact that my life isn't of the norm. I have to fix it first before I get involved in any relationship.

"Are you ready to go?" I turned around to see who was at the bedroom door. Christian.

"Yeah. I'll be out now."

"Okay cool."

I hurried myself and put on my black converse. I looked normal enough so I went to join Christian and we left together. I swear I heard one of their friends say something along the lines of "don't look so scared of her."

"Where do you wanna go?" Christian asked starting the car.

"Anywhere really. Doesn't matter," it really didn't.

"Lunch and ice-skating?" He suggested. Shit. Ice-skating.

"Lunch sounds good. I'm not really good at ice-skating though." I could feel all the blood rushing to my cheeks when he laughed lightly.

"It's okay. I'll teach you."

Romance for Kate. Will it last after he finds out about Kate's past? Maybe, maybe not...

I have a new book called Multiple if you wanna go read that. It's an erotic novel so if you aren't into that stuff then don't read it. Please spread the word about it.
