Without You

Part 10 "So what's it like having Luke Taylor as your baby daddy?"

I woke up by myself Monday morning and I felt horrible. A pounding headache and bad cramps.

I slowly and painfully slid off my bed. I rolled over to my bathroom and turned on the shower.

"Wake- Aubrey?"

"In the bathroom" I groaned.

"What are you doing on the floor?" Mom says looking down at my sprawled out figure.

"I hurt don't feel good."

"There's Tylenol downstairs," Mom leaves and I stay in my same position.

"Can you get my glasses?" I ask sitting up.

"I guess," she sighs.

A few minutes later, I'm in the shower and washing my body. I can't really see since my glasses have water droplets on them but at least it is making my head feel a little better.

After ten more minutes I get out of the shower and put on my clothes.

I walk downstairs and eat a banana. I also make myself a cup of hot chocolate, maybe that'll help with the pain, and I hate coffee.

I feel like I'm being stabbed from the inside.

I drive to school and get there a little bit early. Once I arrive, I sit in my car with my head leaned back on the head rest.

I hear all the doors to my car and I jump almost managing to spill my hot chocolate all over myself.

"Hey boo-boo" Eli says from the backseat.

I mumble a hello and close my eyes.

"What's wrong Aubrey?" Izzy asks taking my hot chocolate and sitting in in a cup holder.

"Other than feeling like I've been ran over by a train, I would say nothing," I say putting down sun visor so the sun isn't in my eyes.

It doesn't work so I just put it back up and huff in annoyance.

"You were fine yesterday" Olivia says confusedly.

"Oh, Aunt Flo?" Izzy says sympathetically rubbing my shoulder.

"Oh holy heavens, my time to leave! Hope you feel better boo-boo" Eli chuckles and exits the car.

"We should probably go" I mumble taking my hot chocolate and getting out of the car.

I sat in first block and as soon as the late bell rang, Luke came waltzing in.

His eyes caught mine and he smirked. I blushed and looked down. He took a seat behind me and a minute later I could hear his chair scooting forward.

"Are you okay?" Luke asks as he moves a curl off my shoulder, placing his arm around the back of my chair, sending me some of his body heat.

I turn my head and look right at him. His face was about six inches from mine and it made my cheeks tinge pink.

"Yeah, just a headache" I smile. I turn back around and I feel Luke playing with the ends of my hair.

That feels so good.

I lean my head back a little and let him continue what he's doing.

Every now and then, his hand would brush against my back and I'd have a mini heart attack.

He knew what he was doing to me too.
