Because I'm A Fool

Chapter 5

I helped him up the steps and to his room. Jeremy frowned at me and said, "Why did you have to pick me up." I could tell he was really upset with me and I don't blame him. After thinking about it I pretty much did crush his heart in a million pieces yesterday night. Jeremy staggered over to his bed and plopped down on it. I was about to say something when he motioned for me to leave. I shook my head, "Jeremy, I understand that you're upset. But, drinking is not the way to handle it."

Jeremy rolled his eyes and hissed, "As if you care. Just leave me alone." I shook my head again and said, "Jeremy, you're being unreasonable. Please listen to me." He shook his head and continued to tell me to leave. I just wanted him to listen to me. I didn't know what to do. I walked over to him and put my hand over his mouth and said, "Listen to me. Please?" Jeremy shoved my hand away and shook his head. I knew he was going to be even more unreasonable since he was drunk.

"I don't feel so good."Jeremy said before passing out. He was falling forward. I grabbed him before he fell. I stared down at him. My heart was beating fast for some strange reason. Was I getting sick? I can't possibly getting sick. I barely went out in public and no one at the dorm was sick. I laid Jeremy down correctly and removed his shoes. I pulled the covers up over him and was about to leave when Jeremy grabbed my wrist. I turned and looked at him. He could barely keep his eyes open. Tears was running down his face and he said, "Please don't leave me. I didn't mean what I said."

I sat down on the edge of his bed and said, "Ok. I'll stay. But, just for tonight." I felt upset seeing Jeremy cry. I reached over and wiped the tears off his face. Jeremy fell asleep. I looked at him and sighed knowing I would not get any sleep tonight. But, for some odd reason I was fine with that. I sat there most of the night thinking about what Coordinator Wang said. Jeremy apparently had feelings for me for some time. But, why am I okay with it?

I frowned at the thoughts going through my head. I can't possibly feel the same way about him. Maybe I am getting sick and this is all a vivid dream. He shook his head and glanced at Jeremy who was asleep. He looked so peaceful when he slept and even more adorable than when he's awake. Wait...Did I just say adorable!?! I pulled my knees to my chest and rested my head on it frowning. It'll all be back to normal in the morning after everyone gets some good night sleep.

I yawned and looked at Jolie who was sleeping in her basket and then at Jeremy who was sleeping in his bed. I felt myself slowly falling asleep. I was just so tired from photo shoots today.
