I think I'm in love with a boy who I might actually have a shot with... that makes my heart flutter. Oh lord help me
Brooke:
"So then she was like 'what?' And I was laughing the whole time!" I laughed the whole time while speaking. I'm pretty sure my face was red by now. "Seriously!? She was? No way!?" Ben cracked up. We were laying on the couch relaxing, telling funny stories and watching Netflix.
"Man.... I missed hanging out with my old friends. Or just one, that works perfectly fine too." He nudged my arm playfully. I just nodded as I stretched my legs onto his lap. "Wow, okay... I'm apparently the couch now." He continued laughing.
Hunter:
"Aight man. Thanks for letting me stay yesterday but I should head back. Brooke wasn't supposed to be home alone...that's not gonna end well for me so pray." I did our handshake as he laughed " yeah, well I told u that. Be careful because Ben is back and he's looking for Brooke." Collins joked around. I walked out the door and into the car driving to mine and her house; they're next to each other.
Brooke:
I heard the door jiggle as I heard someone yell out "Brooke! I'm back! Are you okay?" I immediately knew it was Hunter. Ben looked confused so he questioned " are you and Hunter living together? Are you dating!? Oh my god I stayed here last night. I was an accomplice to your cri-" I shut him up by hitting him with a pillow; we were still on the couch watching Netflix. "No! We aren't! He was just supposed to take care of me but he doing a good job so he isn't going to stay." I said matter-of-factly. Then Hunter walked in. He stared blankly at us. Then it looked like he was going to explode, "what is this guy doing here?" He hissed.
"Taking care of me... unlike you... And his name is Ben. You should already know that."
"Absolutely not! Your my responsibility. I'm supposed to take care of you! Not him.!!!"
"Says the guy who left last night...the night when I literally got released from the hospital, from the thing that he caused. Yet I'm still your responsibility." I scoffed in hatred.
Hunter's eyes dimmed and he swallowed the evident lump in his throat. "...fine." He walked to the guest room, where he was staying at, then slammed the door shut. "Hey...are you okay Brooke?" I felt Ben tap my shoulder. I responded with a sigh, nodding my head. "I'll tell him that I want him out tomorrow."
"No, it's better that he stays, I mean he was ordered by the doctor. And no one contradicts professionals. Plus I-"
"Can't you stay!?" I begged.
"No. My boyfriend will be worried." Ben smiled.
I smirked "I knew it! But your still staying with me tonight!"
