Scotty had spent the night with me last night and left this morning. He said he would be back tomorrow but I wish he had spent all day today with me too. But if I'm being totally honest I couldn't walk very well today. I had to hobble my way to my bathroom to pee but other than that didn't leave bed all day. Luckily, everyone else thought it was from still being heartbroken. Now that I thought about it, however, Colby and I never did officially break up, so I basically just cheated on him too.... Oh well, he did it first.

I was getting pretty hungry too but I couldn't leave bed. Then I had an idea.

"Aaron!" I called.

I could hear im speed walking to the room. He was such a drama queen. "Yea?" he said bursting through the door.

"Can you help me downstairs? I'm hungry."

He rolled his eyes, "Why can't you go yourself?"

"Since I've been in bed for the past week without walking a lot Scotty had the idea to do a VERY intense cardio workout yesterday and now my legs are so sore I can barely walk."

I mean... It wasn't a total lie.

Aaron chuckled, "Is that why you guys were so sweaty yesterday?"

"Yea, it was." ......

"Now that makes more sense."

"Just be a good hypothetical big brother and help me downstairs."

"Fine."

Aaron came over to the side of my bed and helped me up. As soon as I was up, however, I went right back down.

"Ow," I sighed.

"Hang on, I have an idea."

"I'm scared."

Aaron turned me to the side and picked me up bridal style.

"How are you so light?" Aaron asked while tossing me around a bit.

"Oh my god stop!" I screamed at him while trying not to laugh.

He went out the door still carrying me and we were laughing the entire way down the stairs. We started making our way to the kitchen when we saw Colby sitting at the table... with Shea. Aaron about to turn around but it was too late, they saw us. 

"Carly!" Colby exclaimed excitedly.

"Aaron, I think I lost my appetite. Let's just go back upstairs."

Aaron started to turn around but by then it was too late. Colby had already reached us and was blocking our way up the stairs. I kept my eyes closed, scared that seeing him again would bring back tears. Especially seeing him with Shea right now.

"Carly," Coby pleaded, his voice breaking a little. "Can you please look at me?"

I buried my head further into Aaron's chest.

"What are you guys like a thing now?" Colby asked angrily.

"Not at all," Aaron started, "I was just here for her when you weren't," he finished, testing Colby's patience.

"Uh, Colby?" Shea called from the other roo impatiently.

"Shea I think it would be best for you to leave," Colby told her.

"Are you kidding me? You're kicking me out to protect her feelings aren't you?"

"I'm kicking you out because I never wanted you here in the first place. I've told you over and over again that that night was a mistake and I don't remember that at all. I was blacked out and would never do that with you otherwise."

"But you did, and you weren't even that drunk. You were still talking like you and you weren't like almost falling over and  giggling a lot."

"That's just how I am when I get drunk. Now, please, get the fuck out of my house."

Shea huffed one last time before gathering her stuff and heading for the front door.

"You know," Aaron started, "kicking her out doesn't change the past, Colby."

"What will? That's what I'm trying to figure out!" He came over to where we were standing and put his hand on my arm, "Carly, please. Tell me what I can do to make it up to you."

I kept my face buried. "You can go upstairs so that I can get her something to eat," Aaron said for me.

"Stay out of this Aaron," Colby pushed him a little. [Yes I know Aaron is carrying her but Colby is overwhelmed with emotion and isn't paying attention to what he is doing 😂]

"Don't test me right now, Colby," Aaron said breathing heavier. He started to walk away but Colby pushed him again from behind, causing him to start falling forward and me flying out of his arms before sliding across the floor.

Oww.... 

The worst part was probably the fact that it hurt even worse to try and get up to walk away on my own. Colby didn't notice me on the ground, but Aaron did. But before Aaron could get up to come and help me, Colby stepped on his back making him fall back down. At this point neither of them were paying attention to me, they both were just trying to hit each other, with me screaming at them to stop.

After about a minute, Elton came out of the garage to see what was going on. At first he was going to stop them from fighting, but then noticed me on the ground.

"Corey! Sam!" he called while rushing to my side. "Are you okay? What happened?"

Corey and Sam came rushing down the stairs to see Aaron and Colby trying to kill each other. Corey went to grab Aaron while Sam grabbed Colby and they pulled the two of them apart. As soon as Aaron was pulled back, he immediately remembered what he did and came rushing to my side with Elton.

"Carly I am so sorry," Aaron said. And I could tell he was. "WhenColbypushedmeagainIthought IwasgoingtocrushyouandIpanickedandIpushedyououtofthewaysothatIwouldn'tbutIamsosorry thatyoucould'vegottenmorehurt! Are you okay?" He was genuinely worried that he hurt me, I knew I couldn't stay mad at him.

"Yea. Yea, I'm fine," I told him.

"Aaron, what the fuck is going on?" Elton asked him sternly. 

"I was just helping Carly downstairs when we saw Colby and Shea sitting down here and he blew up because she wouldn't look at him and because I was helping her instead of him and started pushing me around for no reason. Then I was walking away he pushed me again and I started to fall and I threw Carly forward so that I didn't accidentally fall on her and crush her. Then everything just escalated from there..."

"Are you okay, Carly?" Corey asked, running over to me.

"Yea, I'm fine. Aaron can you help me back upstairs?"

"Why can't you walk yourself?" Elton and Corey asked confused.

"Scotty had the grande idea to have her do an intense workout last night since she has been sitting in bed for the past week," Aaron told the chuckling.

"Yea, and now my legs are so sore I can barely walk."

"After I help you back to your room I'll come back and make you some food to bring up to you if you're still hungry."

"Here Aaron I'll help her to her room you get some food," Elton said.

"Okay, sure."

As Aaron went to the kitchen, Elton picked me up and took me to my room.

Okay just a little confession, I have no idea where this story is going 😂😂😂. I don't plan out any of these filler chapters I only know where I kind of want the story to end up (sometimes). Do any other writers do that? Let me know lol. But honestly I just write words and say oh this should happen and write dialogue to go with some grand idea. And sometimes I don't even have an idea I just space out with hitting keys on the keyboard. Anyways, that's all now. See you guys next time!
