Falling again (sequel to NGLS)

26.) Good To Be Home

*2 Months Later*

"IM FINALLY FREE FROM THE HOSPITAL!" I shout as I get into Nash's car. "Could you keep it down?" Nash said turning the car on.

"Aren't you happy for me?!" I said smiling like a big idiot. "Yeah I'm glad you're okay and out of the hospital but I'm not too thrilled you're coming back home." He said driving away and my smile instantly faded.

"Oh." I said and I looked out of the window. This is why I hate Nash most of the time, because he's a jerk.

"So... What's happened at home over the past two months?" I asked trying to be nice and civil. "Nothing really, the place is a mess." He said and I laughed to myself.

"Figures, and I'm not cleaning it up." I said and he didn't make a sound. Geez who pissed in his Cheerios?

"Why are you so grumpy today?" I asked and again, not a sound. "Ok." I said to myself because he obviously wasn't listening to me.

This is literally what it felt like in the hospital. No one talking to me for days, no sounds besides the machines and occasionally the tv.

But I can't let one person kill my vibe. I started to think happy thoughts, like puppies and shit and I felt a lot better.

"I should just call you Negative Nash" I mumbled and I could see him slightly smiling from the corner of my eye.

"Can we listen to some tunes?!" I yelled turning on his radio. He ignored me still and just nodded his head to the best of whatever song I picked.

"Okay so I'm Troy and you're Gabriella" I said and put on a song from High School Musical. He mumbled the words which was as good as it was going to get.

We finally arrived home after 15 boring minutes and I got out of the car without any help, go me! I walked inside and Nash wasn't lying when he said this place was a mess.

Dishes piled up in the sink, dirty clothes everywhere, cups with soda in them on all of the tables, bowls of ice cream and cereal everywhere.

I wanted to throw up. "This place smells like a dumpster." I said and Nash shrugged. "Get cleaning." He said and I kicked him.

"Or Cam and me will." He said and I said "That's better." Sometimes it pays to be a bitch. "Oh Cam!" He yelled and Cam came downstairs like half an hour later, typical.

"BRIA!" He shouted and he ran to me and lifted me up. "Since when are you this happy to see me?" I asked and he laughed. "Never but I haven't seen you for two months and I low key missed your sarcasm." He said putting me down.

"Aww, Cam loves me!" I said smiling and he pushed me into the dirty couch. "Well you guys need to clean this disaster up." I said and they both groaned.

"But why? We can just spray the house with your perfume." Cam said and I have him a look. "We totally didn't do that while you were gone." He said. "Totally." Nash added.

"I think there's a broom in the closet in the basement." I said turning the tv on. I can finally watch the shows I want to watch.

Ah SpongeBob, classic. "You can help." Cam said. I raised an eyebrow and looked at him. "Did I make this mess?" I asked and he didn't respond. "That's what I though." I said turning my head back to the tv.

My phone started buzzing like crazy so I looked at it and it was texts from Dylan and Jack. Oh no, is God trying to play some cruel joke on me.

"I heard you're home. I hope you get better soon!" Jack said and I felt my insides turn to mush. Ugh! Why can he do that to me?!! It's not fair. Every time I forget about him he somehow makes me fall all over again for him.

"Hey babe, I'm coming to see you soon." Dylan said and I smiled. He was really nice and cute, but he wasn't Jack. For some reason I crave Jack. But right now I'm really craving a cookie. That's sounds good. Okay back to Jack.

He was the best boyfriend I've had, but I need to get over him. He is just a person, he shouldn't have this big of an impact on my life.

But damn his smile. Am I right? His teeth are so white and perfect. Omg I sound like a fan girl now.

He was so good to me and I was my usual bitchy self. Way to go Bria! You could've had really cute babies.

Well I do truly hope that everything works out with him and his girlfriend, and maybe God will send my soulmate my way.

I don't really think it's Dylan. Sure he's nice and funny but he doesn't make my heart melt every time he texts me or talks to me.

That's true love (at least for me it is). When he says your name and you blush so hard, or when he calls you just to say hi and you get crazy butterflies in your stomach.

That's the type of love I need to feel to know its real. That's the type of love that Jack and I had. Key word had.

Maybe I wasn't meant to have a soulmate. Maybe I was meant to be alone because so far every relationship I've had has turned to crap.

And I can't blame they guys because when they weren't dating me their lives were simple.

Or maybe I just need to find that person that can deal with all of my shit.

"Bria!" Nash yelled over the vacuum and tv. I put the tv on mute and looked at him. "Can you please clean the dishes?" He asked and I rolled my eyes, surprise surprise.

"I'll do half of them." I said and went over to the sink. Nash grinned evilly and I punched his arm.

"Stupid, I'm putting them in the dishwasher." I mumbled to myself . I took some dishes and threw them in the dishwasher but there was A FUCKING RAT IN THERE!" I dropped a plate and ran as fast as my broken body could take me.

I stood on a chair and Nash and Cam were laughing uncontrollably. "It's not fucking funny!" I yelled and Nash walked over to the dishwasher.

"It's fake." He said but then he stopped laughing. "WAIT NO ITS NOT" he yelled and he jumped on the kitchen counter.

"CAM I TOLD YOU TO GET A FAKE RAT!" He yelled and Cam was just frozen with a broom in his hands.

"Oh shit." He said. "DO SOMETHING!" I yelled and the rat started to come out of the dishwasher.

"FUCK FUCK FUCK." Nash yelled and we all started screaming. The rat jumped out and was running all around the house.

"CAM COME GET IT!"  I yelled on the verge of crying. I hate rats with a burning passion. "I can't." He said calmly. "HOW THE HELL ARE YOU SO CALM." Nash yelled holding and wooden spoon.

"If I move, I'm going to piss my pants." He said and I tried so hard not to laugh but I couldn't help it.

The rat disappeared and I started freaking out. "WHERE IS IT!" I yelled jumping to the table. "I think it went under the couch." Nash said.

"We're all going to die." I said and they nodded their heads. "Okay, Cam use your broom." I said but cam didn't move.

"CAMERON DALLAS!" I yelled. He threw the broom at me. "You do it." He said slowly backing into the bathroom.

I took the broom and slowly got off the table. I took a deep breath and put the broom under the couch and moved it until it hit something and then I ran out of the house.

"Ew ew ew ew!" I said and I bumped into Jack. "Sorry." I said and he laughed. "You do that a lot." He said and I nodded.

He headed towards the door but I stopped him. "There is a rat in there somewhere because Cam and my brother are fucking idiots." I said and he started to back away from the door."

"Well I was coming to see you anyways." He said and I smiled. "Really?" I asked trying not to sound too desperate. "Yeah. Why don't we just go for a walk instead." He said and I nodded walking as fast as I could.

"The farther away from that house, the better." I said and he chuckled.

Tonight's going to be a fun night.
