Chapter 34

"Hayes, I just, I don't know." I shake my head looking at the ground, he sighs and sits down beside me.

"Canada will be a fresh start for me." he comments and I look at his hand, seeing how he put it on my leg.

"Hayes, what about-" "Cole? I know." he nods and I shake my head standing up.

"no Hayes, me! what about me!" I exaggerate and he looks up at me, "you don't need me around right now, I'm obviously not over you, but you're over me." he adds and I look down at him.

"Hayes, I'm not over you, but I am with Matthew. it makes sense, but you're my best friend, it's going to have an effect on me." I tell him grabbing his hands, he nods and I pull him up and into a hug.

"please don't." I shake my head, letting the water in my eyes pile up, as Hayes rubs my hair.

"it's not official yet, I wanted to let you know before I made any decisions, for Cole of course." he adds at the end, I nod and wipe away a fallen before we pull away.

"are you crying?" he asks with a slight chuckle and smirk, I look at him with a duh look and he smiles.

"no, I'm not sad that my ex, slash, best friend might be moving to another country, no I'm cool." I nod and he smiles.

"we can always see each other, and, like I said, it's not official, so please, don't be sad, I won't make any decisions until I'm sure that you'll be okay." he says putting his hands on my shoulders and looking me in the eye, I nod and he pulls me back.

"I love you, more than a friend, Katilyn. that's why it's best I go." he says and kisses my head.

"no, Matthew and I, we- well we-" "you don't know, which again is why it's best." he comments and I look at him.

"Hayes, I always have, and most likely always will, love you more than a friend. it's not wrong, because maybe someday, if Matthew and I don't work, I would realize, it was you all along." I nod and he shakes his head.

"if is a big, two lettered word, Katie." he says sounding upset and I look down.

"i love you, but I need to move on if you are." he says pushing back the hair on my face, I look up at him and he grasps his hand around my neck, he leans down and kisses me on my cheek, slowly he pulls away and I look into his eyes.

"I'm really sorry." I tell him and he nods.

"go get to bed, you need rest after today." he smirks and I nod, I turn and he walks to his dresser, I walk to the door and slightly turn my head, I see him looking back at me, I chuckle stiffly and walk out.

•

"so he's letting you go?" Matthew asks me and I nod pulling up the covers.

"I mean, I guess anyway." I shrug and he wraps his arm around my waist.

"don't dwell on this, we're finally happy." he smiles and I smile slightly back, hiding my sadness.

"goodnight." I whisper closing my eyes, he kisses my lips and it feels weird, but right, I guess.

"goodnight my beautiful girlfriend." he smiles, I cut off the lamp and we fall asleep.

•

"good morning sleepy head." I hear and I open my eyes slowly seeing Cameron, and then seeing Cameron rip the covers off of me.

"what the fuck?" I ask sitting up and rubbing my eyes.

"language, children are on the premises." he shushes me and I giggle slightly.

"seriously, what's with the" I take a glance at the clock that reads, 7:28, "seven twenty-eight, wake up call." I ask sluggishly getting up.

"oh, can a brother not wake up his dear sister?" he asks me and I raise my eyebrow at him, he laughs and I smile nodding.

"you're right, I want something." I nod and shrug standing up and placing my hands on my hips.

"what is it?" I ask him shrugging and he points to follow him, I roll my eyes and follow him, he walks downstairs and we pass pretty much everyone, why everyone is up? I have no clue.

"I want you to talk to Andrea for me." he says once we get to the closed off pantry, I tilt my head and place my hand on my hip.

"that's what you woke me up for? so I can smooth out your relationship, that you broke." I exaggerate and he shakes his head and then tilts it.

"yeah, well no. I wanted a day with you, but yeah, Andrea too." he nods and I shrug.

"what's in it for me?" I ask him getting snarky, he looks at me all dumb like.

"you'll do it even if it was for nothing." he says copying my snark, I roll my eyes and he laughs.

"thank you sissy, oh and be ready by ten!" he says leaving the pantry quickly, I sigh and walk out after.

"good morning." I hear, I look and see Hayes with Cole in his arms.

"hi, how'd you sleep baby?" I ask Cole and Hayes interrupts, "I slept just fine, thanks." he winks and I look at him.

"I was talking to the smaller baby, not the bigger one." I say taking Cole from him and Cole pouts.

"I'm not a baby!" he exclaims and I look at Hayes with wide eyes.

"he told you." I say and Hayes smiles, "you too." he says back sassily and I laugh.

"want breakfast?" he asks me and I shrug, "want some?" I ask Cole and he nods quickly.

"lucky charms!" he shouts and I look at Hayes, he nods looking in the pantry and I sit Cole on a bar stool.

"eggs, bacon, and waffles." Hayes says getting everything he needs, I nod and I begin to set it up, he grabs the lucky charms and milk, while I begin to cook.

"what are you doing?" he asks coming up behind me and grabbing me by my waist, I look at him from the back and he takes his hands off with a sorry look.

"sorry, force of habit." he says surrendering and I smile nodding, he takes over and I watch him, along with Cole eating.

"my boys. you're both so cute." I smile playing with Coles cheek and he play slaps my hand away so he can eat, I smile and Hayes looks behind himself.

"see, you do think I'm cute." he nods and faces forward.

"never said I didn't." I smirk and he glances back at me chuckling.
