XII // You Bitch

I woke up in an empty bed. Which was odd seeing as Daniel should have come in last night. I turn over and look at the clock, it was still really early which meant it was still odd Daniel wasn't here. The clock showed, 6:20 am.

I jumped out of bed ready for an early morning run. Which I hadn't done in a couple weeks. My slim black leggings laid on the floor with my sports bra. All of it in my washed pile which I had failed to hang up or put away.

I place my clothes on and grab my phone. My phone sat in my arm piece and my headphones hung out. Because Daniel wasn't here I assume I would make the bed. Too much to my surprise was really easy.

I pull the sheet up and tidy the bed. Placing my throw sheet folded at the end of the bed. I pulled the curtains open and headed out of the room. I pull the door shut and hear a door creak open at the same time.

I turn my head and see Daniel pulling his shirt from yesterday over his head and walking out of Kelsey's room. What the hell?!

Stop Noah. They wouldn't. "Oh hey Noah," Daniel says. Ouch, that was cold, Noah? not even a good morning babe or nugget?!

"What were you doing in there? Shirtless?" I laugh trying to cut the tension which was not working. Kelsey walks up to the door frame in her bra and leggings. Her eyes widen.

"I was just uh..." Daniel mumbles.

"He forgot something from yesterday and woke up early so came here," Kelsey says. Which sounded like bullshit.

"Forgot what his shirt?" I state. She laughs and punches Daniels arm lightly to signal for him to help back her up.

"We went in the pool and all my junk was in there like my togs and clothes from yesterday," Daniel says making yet another excuse. I look at both of them, were they going to lie to my face? I felt heartbroken. They both looked quite upset and seemed like their heart was racing so I shrugged it off.

"I am going to run, see you at the studio?" I state. They both nod really fast. Daniel walks up to me and kisses my cheek. Like that had helped. What the hell were they hiding?!

I unlocked the house door and was greeted by Nugget and Blue. I pat both of them and slam the front door shut, throwing my keys on the cabinet by the door. Everyone had gone to the studio and was expecting me to arrive soon with lunch. But I had to find out about what Daniel and Kelsey were hiding.

I pull my armband off and place it on the kitchen table. Sweat drips down my forehead before I grab water and throw most of it down my throat in dehydration. My phone vibrates and I pull it out of my armband.

KeLsEy🌷: can you grab my jersey on the back of my door. It is pissing down now.

NoAh🌹: ofc

I shut my phone off. I run upstairs, Nugget and Blue beating me by a second. Both of them nearly made me fall over because they knocked my legs. I open Kelsey's room and walk in, turning the bright white light on.

I grab the black WHY DONT WE jersey on the back of her door. "Come on you two," I say at the dogs. Nugget nudges me. I look down to see in his mouth a used condom. "NUGGET! SPIT IT OUT! EW, EW!"

I pull it out of Nuggets mouth and throw it in Kelsey's bin beside her door. Well, she had company.

Wait. I place the jersey on the bed and begin looking around for proof that it was Daniel. My mind didn't want it to be him but so far the puzzle pieces were adding up. My eyes meet with something silver shining on the floor beside the right side of the bed.
