:: That Night, 10:37 pm ::
~Dyme's POV~

After a mid night bathroom break, I sneaked past to Kel's bedroom and peeked inside. She was finally home and fully asleep under her covers. This was the first disagreement we had in the house and it's tearing me up already. I felt bad for ignoring Jay but I have my own personal reasons for doing so.

Truth is I really like the guy but.....I just do wanna jump into with him and have yet another guy I really like...break my heart all over again. I thought she understood where I was coming from but I guess that sweet little innocent Jay got to her too.

Tip toeing to her bed, I laid down besides her and spooned her from behind. "Kel..?" I called softly.

"Yes Diya?"

"You still pissed at me?" I asked.

"It's not my place anymore remember. I'm not getting involved"

"Okay but...I just want you to know that I'm sorry for getting you into this. I never meant for it to...end up this way and you were right. I did want his attention in school and now it seems like I can care less about it. But...that's not entirely true,...I actually like him back. Its just complicated right now and just him being around me is changing everything I promised myself I wouldn't go back to doing. But now..., I'm acting shady and it's only a matter of time until he realizes it. So...I gotta tell him soon but...I'm kind of scared to. I don't wanna be the one doing the heartbreaking, I know exactly how it feels..."

"I understand where you're coming from okay, it's just a complicated situation like you said. But...you really need to talk to him, ignoring a person isn't right and you would be heart broken if someone did this to you, that you really liked. You gotta treat people how you wanna be treated..."

"Okay. I'm a give him a call either tomorrow or some time this weekend most definitely. I'm sorry again for getting you involved"

"Its okay, as long as you know what you have to do and to make it right"

"Yeah..., and I was going to treat you to that new Ice cream place that's about to open up. ...Mikey's?"

"Oh it's done already? When is it opening?"

"Tomorrow sis, it's all over social media. So what do you say, can I treat my best friend to some ice cream and fried Oreos?"

"You had me at Oreos bish" she laughed.

:: The Next morning ::☀

"Hey mom..."

"Hola sweetie.." she said in return.

"How's James?"

"He's fine, still sleeping in right now. He had a bit of a fever last night but I gave him some medicine to take that away. I'm just waiting for him to wake up is all"

"Awe, I was hoping I could take him to go get some ice cream this afternoon. But he doesn't feel well..."

"Yeah, I don't think he should be having junk food right now anyways. He complained of his stomach hurting too"

"You think I should take him to the doctors then? You know and get him checked out, I can't have my baby sick"

"Awe, look at you sounding like a true mother. I'm so proud of you, but uh no he's fine dear. I've been a mother for quite some time and I know how to take care of a simple cold. I'll call you when he wakes up okay, and how about you stop by later on too"
