Chapter 21

The night out that Jai promises is really fun. All the boys come out and they give me a good night. “Ariana you can sleep in my bed tonight as a congrats” Luke teases and I laugh along. I remember once when Luke tweeted to Jai “You took my celebrity crush. Ariana Grande is mine.” I can’t help but think maybe Luke still likes me. I know he wouldn’t do or mean anything though because he knows that Jai and I are in love and also Luke is a really nice guy we are just good friends. Same applies to Daniel, James and Beau.. Amazing friends which I have such a great time with.

We spend the night drinking champagne and they all made a cake which is really cute “Congrats Ariana <3” It say’s and we all do that. We don’t get that drunk just a little out of our heads we just dance and play on the x bob and make videos. My type of favourite things. We sing and we just have fun. They make me do pranks and dares which is pretty funny to be honest on the streets of Melbourne so I don’t mind so much.

When the time comes it is about 1am I am about to leave to go home when Jai grabs me “Why don’t you stay with me tonight?” Jai says shyly. “Hmm I don’t know I would love to but I should probably get home” “Okay” Jai says understandingly giving me a kiss and a hug and helping me put my shoes on “See you tomorrow babe” He says picking me up and kissing me again one last time. But this is when I realise how much I really want to stay the night. I feel bad because I am not at home a lot but soon I will be so tied down with work and I just want to make the most of Jai. “I will stay” I say “Oh goodie!” Jai says carrying me up in my favourite position up to his bed.

“Did you want to borrow some pjs or sweatpants to sleep in?” Jai asks kindly. “Yes please” I say because I don’t want to sleep in a dress and heels. I attempt pulling my tight heels off but I can’t “Let me give you a hand” Jai says walking over from the bathroom where he was about to get in the shower. He slowly starts to pull at the shoe when all of a sudden he falls dramatically back. “Jai” I shout trying not to laugh as he limply laughs where he is on the floor. I trip over the shoe and land on top of him. “Owwh” He screeches as the one heel I still had one digs directly into his ‘private’ place. (Lmap k this is awks) “Sorry” I say feeling really bad. “He is rolling around on the floor in pain and I am stuck with what to do. Jai suddenly starts laughing. “What?” I ask

“You” he says smiling although I can see the pain he is still feeling. “You are trying to cover up so I don’t feel bad aren’t you?” I say to Jai “No” he says although he is no good at lieing. “Jai” I say getting back on the floor where he is still lieing. I grab his hands and sit him on the bed. I sit next to him and kiss him. “I am so sorry I am such an idiot” I say “You’re not an idiot” Jai says laughing. I run down the stairs to get some ice. He obviously thinks I am running to go home and he shouts after me and even tries to get up but fails. I take about five minutes trying to find ice which I manage in the end. I notice in the lounge each one of them are asleep on the sofas the xbox still on.

 “I thought you went home” Jai says sadly. “No baby I went to get some ice” I say and just incase you’re wondering my second heel is off my foot now. I shove the ice onto him and he jerks back a little “Umm sorry” I say as this is a little bit awkward. After five minutes he says “I’m fine now” and he gets up. I notice he is walking funny but I don’t want to say anything because I’m sure anyone would after getting a high heel squash.

Jai gets himself ready for bed and so do I. I take all my makeup off and when I’m ready I jump into his bed waiting for him to come. He takes about five minutes before he comes out the bathroom still limping a little but not as bad. When he is under the cover with me I say “Bet you wished I decided not to stay the night now” I say “No, Ari it was a mistake and I forgive you” Jai says at ease. “But you are still in pain right?” I ask sadly “No I put ice and cream on it” He says embarrassed. “Good” I simply add. He is looking at me loads but not touching me at all. I wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him slowly. “I love you” I whisper my hair falling into his face. He starts laughing. “I’m sorry for crying all the time” Jai says humiliated “Don’t be, I have cried way too much lately too” I say but I don’t feel embarrassed about it. “I know but you probably think I’m stupid” Jai says. “No way” I say.

I keep drifting in and out of sleep. When I wake up I see Jai staring at me “What?” I laugh and he suddenly comes out of his daydream “Oh nothing umm sorry” he says taking his eyes off me “You were watching me weren’t you!” I say “Cheeky” I add. “You are even perfect when you sleep though” Jai says touching my shoulder. “How are you balls?” I ask “Better” He says and then he jokily says “Would be better if you massaged them” “Jai” I say laughing and he turns a little red. “It was a joke” He winks at me. Not funny.

I seem to fall back to sleep. When I am falling to sleep I feel Jai kiss my head which makes me smile and then I am out of this world again. Next time I wake up the time is 1am and Jai is fast asleep I give him a little kiss and I fall back to sleep again. He is so cute when he is asleep. Aww.

“Jai Jai Jai” I scream when I next wake up. I had the most horrible nightmare. Jai got killed and there was nothing I could do but I was so close but when I reached to get him he was dead. His head flopped back. Neck snapped. It was such a horrible and disturbing image. I am sweating loads and I am still in shock. Jai is not lieing in bed which panics me more. Omg wasn’t a dream was it? I ask myself starting to cry really hard. “Jai Jai” I scream at the top of my lungs.

Suddenly Jai comes running from the bathroom in just his boxers. “Jai” I shout jumping off his bed and going flying towards him. I am still crying a little bit when I reach his arms. I am safely inside his arms. He isn’t dead Ariana he is here I say to myself but I can’t seem to calm down. “You died” I whisper in terror still in a state of disbelief from the disturbing images of my boyfriend dead. “I’m here” Jai says stroking my hair. I gulp but can’t get any words out. “You’re okay Ariana, you’re okay” He softly presses his face into my hair and kisses me repeatedly.

“Don’t leave me” I manage to get out calming down a little. He takes me back to bed and hugs me closely not letting go. He rubs my back as I stop crying and enlighten myself about how it was just a terrible dream and I have got Jai now. I don’t want to fall back asleep just incase I see what I saw before. The man who did it. I think the look of his and the blood.. I shudder. I can’t deal with that. “Jai I am sorry” I whisper “Don’t be” He says back. “Sorry that I’m in my boxers” he says “That isn’t a problem” I spit out trying not to start smiling like an idiot.
