One Last Kiss {Book Three}

Chapter 7

"He's coming back home in three days!" I take a fistful of my messy brown hair and realized that I haven't combed it in a few days. "I don't know what to do!"

A quick glance at Kat told me that she was already tired of my complaining. I would be too. In fact, I was sick of feeling anxious about this. I was tired of working myself up over something that I really shouldn't be working myself up about. But she sat me on the couch and put her hands on my shoulders. A quick glare at me said it all. Calm the fuck down.

A few deep breaths, and I felt my muscles relax a bit. Though I was still a bit shaky.

"Hannah," She started. "You need to tell him. Before he finds out when he comes home." Kat sat herself beside me and took one of my hands into her cold ones.

I don't know if I can tell him. Its stressful as it is, let alone wondering what your husband is going to say to you. He may be ecstatic about it, and I may be overreacting. But then again, he may hate me for not telling him sooner. He already had a ton of shit on his mind for the tour and I didn't want to add any extra tension.

"I'll do it with you." She smiled after I didn't reply to her. "And we can invite Breezy over, maybe even Elisa or Meagan. That way you wouldn't do it alone."

I looked back down at the ground. That might make it better. Or it may get my nerves all worked up again and I choke. But at least I would have some sort of support if everything goes down the wrong way with Brendon.

"Yeah." I finally spoke.

"Alright, good." She rubbed my shoulder in a reassuring way, before getting up and grabbing her phone. "I was gonna call them anyways. Socializing is definitely something that you should be doing since you haven't been out of the house in awhile." Awhile? Try since the last day Amelie and Knox were over. I pretty much just stayed in the house mainly watching movies, messing around in the music room, and playing Brendon's shooter games. They were actually quite fun, though I didn't know what I was doing most of the time. Old school Nintendo is more up my alley. But I never left the house, other than a step into the backyard to let the dogs do their business.

I realized that I was in a daze for quite some time, hearing selective pieces from Kat's phone calls. 'Elisa.'...'See you then.'... 'Meagan.'...'Sorry.'...'Breezy.'...'Bring them too.'

"Okay so," Kat sat next to me again, phone in her hand. "Meagan can't make it, she's spending time with family. But Breezy and Elisa said they would try to be here in an hour. Breezy has to get the children ready."

"Did you tell them?" I ask, not looking up from the floor.

"I figured you could." Of course. "Be a bit of practice." I mean she had a point. Though they would actually see for themselves in person rather than on a video chat, which I have just casually hidden the news to Brendon when skyping him every night. I'm surprised he has suspected yet.

"I guess." I couldn't form any words, my mind was in such a twist.

"Hey, it'll be alright." Kat took ahold of my chin and forced me to look at her. "Stop worrying." If only it was that easy.

~~~

"Hey Hannah!" Breezy walked through the living room and sat on the couch next to me, accompanied by Knox and Amelie. Elisa soon made her appearance afterward.

I had one of the couch pillows covering my stomach and smiled slightly at them. My heart rate started to quicken, and I had to take a few moments to calm myself down.
