Just Another Day (Adopted By Josh Dun)

Fifty

So the last chapter wasn't at all happy. I wanted her to have to go through something that makes her really think about what she's doing. I'm sorry if it was bad...
Kamryn
I woke with my eyes sore and my throat dry. My face felt heavy with dried tears and I felt tired as fuck. This is why I shouldn't ever leave the house. Sammy noticed my consciousness, causing him to bark. I guess that he wanted to alert the boys I'm not dead. Josh and two other people ran in. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. "Who are the other two people?" Josh looked at me in concern. "Kam it's Ethan and Pete." I nodded and got up, going toward Ethan. He held me in his arms as I felt more tears well up in my eyes. "You should've texted me if something was going on." "I thought I could handle it. Then they fucking cornered me, just staring at me like I'm some stupid object. And when I left, Jensen and Jared followed me and proceed to ask me a rude question. I started to panic, so I texted Josh to come get us." He rubbed my back as I breathed out angrily. "Is the rest of Fall Out Boy here cause I need a bear hug from Patrick." "Yeah the rest are here." Pete gave me a piggy back ride downstairs. "Did you get lighter?" I shrugged. "I honestly have no idea."

Patrick noticed me and ran over. "Who do I need to get Pete to beat up?" I laughed and just hugged him. He seemed to catch on, wrapping his arms around me. "How about you just spend the day with us?" "I'd like that, as long as Josh is okay with it." Josh told Patrick it was okay, as long as Ethan went too. We planned on heading out at 10 and right now it's 8. I made myself some coffee and sat down on the couch for some TV. "Can we watch Supernatural? I do love the show still." Josh shrugged and opened my Netflix up. We sat and watched a few episodes before my phone began to ring. "I'll get it. I need to go shower anyway." I pushed myself off the couch and grabbed my phone off the kitchen counter.

"You've got Kamryn." "Kam." I tensed and shot a look at the boys. They were watching the show, allowing me to slip upstairs quietly. "How the hell did you get my new number?" "I saw your co-worker dial it yesterday to call you." I cursed quietly. I sat down on my bed and rubbed my free hand on my face. "Rich, why did you call me?" I felt like I gave up. "You sound tired." "Yeah well when you spend all night crying, you tend to get tired." I heard him sigh on the other side of the phone. "Kam is everything okay?" "Yeah just talking to Marvin. I'll be down in 30." "Who was that?" "My brother. Look Richard, I have no idea why you called me and I really want to know. I tried so hard to forget I even had feelings for you when you shoved me away. I'm tired of getting my hopes up and having you shoot me down again." "I called to see if you were okay. Jensen told me what Josh said yesterday. Are you really suffering from anxiety?" "I'm not okay and yes I am. I happened to forget to take my pills and I started to panic after seeing you guys. The fact that you cornered me also upped the risk of an attack. Thanks for that. But if that's all you wanted to call me for, then I'm fine. Lose my number."

"Kam wait! Listen I'm sorry if there was anything I did wrong. I'm sorry I didn't tell you that I was seeing someone. I do realize that I hurt you and I'm sorry I can't return the feelings. I did at one point but it was only a puppy crush. Also the fact you are 17 years younger than me." "You say that like you didn't go and date an 18 year old. I turn 17 next month. It's not a big damn gap. But I understand and I'm going to hang up now. Lose. The. Number." I hung up and rubbed my eyes again. "Just go shower and you'll be fine." I turned the shower on and stepped inside for a long and heartbreaking cry.

"Kam you almost done?" "Y-Yeah!" I pulled a flannel onto my arms and put Sammy on a leash. "Kam I heard the voice crack." I looked up to see Patrick leaning on my doorway. "What happened?" "Fucking Richard called me to tell me he doesn't like me. I mean I got that but fucking come on. I don't need a damn reminder." He rubbed my back and grabbed my hands. "He is an idiot for letting you go like that. Kam you may love him but he wasn't worth it anyway. Now you gotta get over him and move on. Date someone you never thought you'd date. Go to college and have the time of your life. Become someone he didn't believe you'd become. Become the Kamryn we all know you'll become. We are all here and we all love you."
