My brother's best friend

Chapter Thirteen

Link's POV

As much I wanted things with Hailey to escalate, now just wasn't the time. After hearing that she's not a virgin anymore, i have to admit i was a little upset about it. But her first time wasn't what she had expected, which just makes it that much harder a job for me to make it amazing for her when we finally get to that day.

When my eyes opened in the morning i rolled over to check my phone, the clock on the home screen read 6:37am. I decided that i would go spend the rest of the morning sleeping on the ungodly pullout couch incase Chase or someone came in later in the morning. The last thing we needed was Chase flipping shit on me for sharing the bed with his little sister.we already had enough on our plate for the time being.
Looking over at Hailey she looked so peaceful as she slept, her blonde hair was swept across her face, soft breaths pushed a piece back and forth from her lips and back. She was curled up in a little ball like a child. She was so beautiful. I knew my feelings for her were strong, but man they're strong.
I don't know how long i was looking at her but it must have been pretty long because she started to stir, her bum wiggled into my crotch, my morning wood was aching.

Haileys POV

I woke up in the morning curled up in Link's bed, but sadly he wasn't lying beside me anymore. I don't even know what to think of last night. The first thought that comes to ind was how amazing it was and how I didn't want the night to end ever! I had never really told anyone about Jake other than Megan obviously. Speaking of Megan, i should really fill her in on everything that's been happening or she'll kill me when she gets home at the end of the summer and i still haven't told her. Then Link and i could never be together. Wait. did I actually just think that? I seriously need to have a sit down with Link and figure whatever this is, out.

Just as I was unplugging my phone from the charger i got an incoming call from Trey.

"Hello?"
"Hey, Hailey. Its Trey.. from the university" he said shyly into the phone
"Yeah hey, what's up?" i replied happily
"Well I was ugh, wondering if you'd wanna grab dinner with me tonight.. You know, if you're not busy that is..."
"Oh, uhm. I'd love to but i'm actually home visiting my mom for awhile, having some family issues.." I replied grimly
"Oh no really? I'm so sorry to hear that Hailey, well let me know if you need anything, even if you just need someone to vent too. I'm a good listener" he chuckled a little at the end. He has a nice laugh.
"Thanks Trey, i needed to hear that i have someone.. And i'd love to get dinner when I come back to the city i you're ok with that?"
"Ya, i'd really like that Hailey, just let me know when you're home and available. Ill talk to you later love. Have a good day" i could hear the enthusiasm in his voice.
"Yeah you too Trey, thanks"

I hung up the phone just as Link walked into the room from out of the bathroom, he had a towel wrapped around his waist and another one he was using to dry his tangled dark hair. He looked sexy with his hair all messy, his body still wasn't dry from his shower so the water droplets slowly fell down his toned chest and seeped through the towel.

Link just looked over at me and smirked. He walked to the closet opened the doors and stepped in. oh how I missed my walk-in closet in this house. All the bedrooms had them, made for having a lot of clothes easy. I decided to take this time and use the washroom, I don't know how this day is going to go with mom. I still haven't really spoken to Chase about what we're doing to do. I for sure don't want her staying in this house all by herself. It's too big and there are too many memories here. This had been our house forever, this as the house my parents bought together after they had just gotten married and were pregnant with Chase. My parents were an older couple. Dad wanted to have a stable job before making a family. They were in their late thirties when they decided to finally have kids. Just seems funny to me that my dad has left my mom for someone younger, my parents had been together since their high school years. Mom wasn't even too old either, she was aging well for a woman her age she had just turned 56, and had not a single grey hair to show yet. She worked out regularly and went for runs every morning.
Once I finished in the washroom I went through the adjoining door that lead to my old bedroom, I saw mom curled up in the sheets with tissues all around her. I went and laid down on the bed behind her hugging her gently. I could tell she was awake as soon as I laid down. She started running her fingers up and down my arm slowly. She always did this to me when I was a little girl. Getting mom out of bed today was difficult. She was so frail and had no energy left. There were large dark bags under her eyes. Her skin looked so dry unlike her usually well hydrated skin. Her blonde hair looked sad and tangled. In the nicest way possible, she needed to clean up. Have a shower or a bath to give her some life back to her appearance.
