So I know that it took FOREVER to upload that last chapter, and I'm sorry. I will try to upload more often. I was busy for the last few months, but I'm not that busy anymore, so I have time to write. Anyway, how are you liking the book so far?

~Reece's POV~

I woke up in a bed that was not my own. Then I remembered the previous day's heartbreaking events. "Good morning. Did you sleep well?" I heard a soft voice say.

"Hayes? How did I get here?" I asked, still groggy.

"You don't remember? You ran over here from your house, crying. And Sky let you in, and you came up here. And I guess we fell asleep," he replied, a little uneasy.

"Why don't you sound like your normal self? You're usually outgoing, but now you sound a little uneasy," I said, finally standing up.

"We fell asleep. In the same bed. Together. And you're supposed to be my brother's boyfriend. What if he hates me for falling asleep with you?" he answered.

"Hey, he doesn't need to know. And I'm not his boyfriend anymore. He ruined that when he kissed Jack. So, as I told Skylynn, I am probably not going to be coming over here anymore," I added. "And, I should probably go before I run into him." I started to walk out his door when I felt him wrap his arms around my waist and hug me.

"Please don't go!" he exclaimed. It took all I had not to stay here with him.

"I have to go, Hayes. You can go with me," I offered.

"Where are we going?"

"Back to my house. Do you want to stay the night? My parents are out of town, and I don't want to be alone," I replied, opening the door.

"I'd love to," he answered, with a really cute smile on his face. And just my luck. As we exited his room, Nash was walking down the hall.

"Reece? Can I talk to you, please? I need to explain what happened yesterday," he said. I just ignored him and walked downstairs.

"Hayes, are you ready to go? Do you need to tell your parents that you're leaving?" I asked.

"They don't care where I go. I could be gone for a week at a time and they wouldn't bat an eye," Hayes replied, a sudden sadness in his eye.

"Let's go then. Before Nash tries to stop you." And with that, we were out the door. We had to walk back to my house, because I had run here the previous night. We were pretty quiet the whole walk back to my house. But it wasn't an awkward silence, it was quite nice. Once we got to the house, I opened the door and stepped aside to allow him inside.

"So this is where you live? It's amazing!" he exclaimed, looking at everything in the house. I took advantage of the time he was taking looking at the house to look over his body. He was really good looking. I got too transfixed in checking him out to realize that he was looking at me.

"Oh my god. I'm so s-s-sorry! Please d-don't be mad at m-me?" I stuttered, blushing like crazy as I looked at the floor.

"Hey, look at me," he said, lifting my face with his inhumanly soft, gentle hands. I kept my eyes closed as he lifted my face. "Open your eyes, please. I want to see those gorgeous green eyes of yours," he replied, a softness in his voice that I could not resist. I reluctantly opened my eyes, and looked into the most gorgeous eyes I have ever seen. We stared into each other's eyes for a long time, too long to say.

"I'm getting tired. Come lay down with me?" I asked, breaking the peaceful silence. He agreed, and we both walked up to my bedroom.

"So this is your bedroom?" he asked, in awe. "I like it."
