Its been a couple days since I broke the TV at the Brooks house, but I was still here. I was too worried to tell James that we have been figured out so I decided to stay here with Manda and Beau.
They were so cute together, staying up late watching the NoteBook. They knew almost every line from that movie. When it was time for bed Beau carried her into their room and they would snuggle until they both were asleep. In the morning Manda would wake up first and she would wake up Beau, they would then go to the kitchen and make eggs and bacon.
One morning I woke up and dragged myself out of Luke’s bed, he was letting me sleep there while he slept with Jai in his bed. I made my way to the living room to see that Manda and Beau were eating their breakfast. Honestly, after seeing that I could see them growing old together.
“How are you and James?” Manda asked.
“He doesn’t know about it yet..’’ I said as a sat in a bean bag.
“Will you tell him?” Beau said while filling his mouth with bacon.
“I have to figure out how to first....” I started to walk back to Luke and Jai’s room to grab my phone. Then I noticed that my phone was gone.. I left it in James’s car! What if he reads my texts that I have sent to Jenny? What if he opens my twitter and sees all the hate that I have gotten? I ran out to Beau, him and Manda were having a moment but I needed to get ahold of James. I saw his phone about to leave his back pocket as he leaned into Manda, I reached for it and got it. He turned around and when he saw me he started to laugh.
“I need to call James.” I whispered as I walked away.
Manda’s face was bright red since I walked in on a make out session between them-not like I haven’t done it before-
As I made my way into Luke and Jai’s room to make the call, I heard a car pull up and a door slamming shut. I ran to the window, it was James. He looked annoyed, he just walked into the house. He saw Beau and Manada having their moment making him go straight to the room I was in. I wasn’t ready to tell him anything so I hid in the closet - I know I’m childish -
“Where is Kat?” He yelled as Luke got out of Jai’s bed.
“She was here!” He said with a yawn.
“Why is she staying here?” He asked with a confused look.
“I can’t tell you, I promised her that I wouldn’t” Luke said as he climbed out of bed.
“Is she okay?” James wouldn’t stop asking questions.
“Kind of...” Luke said.
After that he said, “Well I’m going to check if she went back to her house yet, oh and she left her phone in my car, her twitter and texts are blowing up.. But i couldn’t figure out the password.” Then he left.
I stepped over the dirty cloths and piles of garbage stepping into the clean spots.
“Why were you in there?” Luke asked.
“Well I wasn’t ready to tell James yet, and I would’ve stayed in the living room if Beau and Manda weren’t doing there thang.” I said trying to make things not so serious.
“Well in that case, since Banda is out there, wanna go with me to look at new TVs?” Luke asked, “You know, since you broke the last one?”
I followed him out to the car where he had given me my phone, I looked at the notifications ‘20 new texts’ and twitter was blowing up with ‘500 new mentions’ and ‘1,000 new followers’. I was too scared to open it up, so I turned my phone off and turned up the music in his car. Holy Grail was playing, we both sang it at the top of our lungs, just as we pulled up to my house so I could change I saw James car.
“Where have you been?” he asked, “I’ve been looking for you!” he pulled me in with what he calls ‘a bear hug’.
“I’ve been out...” I answered awkwardly.
“I went on twitter last night and saw that people know about you and I....” James stated with worry.
“I know that’s why I’ve been staying with the two love birds. At the Brooks house.” I looked at him he was reaching for my hand then I looked at Luke who was feeling like a third wheel.
“How about we go to get a TV together?” I asked then I heard the front door open then shut, it was Jen and Daniel. “Why the fuck are you staying at my house?”
“Because you weren’t here!” Jen answered almost as innocent as Ariana Grande would, but we all know how not so innocent she is.
“That doesn’t-” I was interrupted by Luke.
“No let them stay, lets just invite everyone else over here and throw a small quiet party!” Luke suggested with a smile.
I was kicking the dirt and decided that I wouldn’t mind a little party.
