Paint Me In Trust - Tyren

chapter thirteen

Lauren groaned as Ty placed a cold cloth on the back of her neck. She was awake all night with major morning sickness, or really bad anxiety. Today was the day they were telling their parents. She had worked herself up over it all night, she was up at five in the morning with Ty by her side in the hotel bath tub. She thought it might help her relax a little, but it had done nothing but wake her up, although she had to admit that she loved the feeling of Ty washing and rinsing her hair.

"Ty." She groaned as she relaxed into his chest. She was beginning to get frustrated. She really hated getting sick, but no matter what pills she took, how much she relaxed, or what position she lied in she continued to throw up whatever was in her stomach.

"I know, baby. Breathe through your nose, it's okay." He said as he rubbed her back. They were sitting on the bathroom floor next to the toilet. He had pulled her hair into a very loose, lousy bun to keep it out of her face. Lauren knew it wouldn't stay, but it was the thought that counts. She knew that he was trying his damn best to help her and make her as comfortable as possible and she really, really appreciated it. He had brought her bottle after bottle of water, rubbed her feet, ankles, and back, brought her as many nausea pills as she needed, had brought her crackers, and even camped out on the bathroom floor with her all night.

He had suggested that she skip tomorrows show if she was still this sick when it came time, but she was determined to control the sickness. She had yet to miss a show and she wasn't gonna start now, especially not on the night that her family would be there. She wanted to finish out this tour, even if it meant having to have her stage outfit tailored to fit her stomach and breasts. She had started to wonder when the fans would start to notice because her body had gone through some big changes the last few months. She hadn't seen anything on Twitter or Instagram about it, but she wasn't going to push it.

"I'm so tired. I'm already over this pregnancy shit. I just want a damn nap." Lauren said as a few tears rolled down her cheeks. She wiped them away and closed her eyes, hoping it would last longer this time. Her eyes were so tired, she was physically exhausted. Lauren just wanted to lie down and sleep as long as she could without getting interrupted. She knew Ty was tired too and she had told him he could go to sleep, but he refused and said he would be here with her all night if that's what it came down to. Which is what it did come down to.

"Do you think it's the anxiety or somethin?" He asked.

"I don't know, I just know I want it to be over Ty. I just want to sleep." She said as a few more tears went down her face. Ty went to wipe them away but his hand was pushed away by Lauren who was, once again, getting sick into the toilet.

Once she was done she let out a breath, wiped her mouth with a Kleenex Ty had given her, and flushed the toilet for the millionth time. She felt bad for the person who pays the water bill for this hotel, it was gonna sky rocket while she was there. She leaned back into Ty who kissed her forehead gingerly. She had refused to let him kiss her on the mouth, she said it was disgusting to kiss a mouth that had vomited all night.

They stayed that way for about thirty minutes. Lauren hadn't puked again and she was so close to being asleep. Ty didn't dare move her, he sat there with his legs folded and his arms around her. He rested his head against hers and closed his eyes as well. Ty figured he might as well get some sleep too, even if it might only be five minutes before Lauren got up again.

Ally had woken up the next morning to light in her face from outside. Her eyes fluttered open and she sat there for a minute staring at the all the cars going by on the streets. Big cities like Orlando had always been here favorite. She loved that so many people were so busy in a city that never sleeps.

She sat up on the bed and grabbed her phone from the night stand. She looked over at Lauren's bed to see it empty, neither Ty or Lauren in the bed. She frowned her eyebrows and looked over to the bathroom door. A small light shined through the crack under the door.
