Aaliyah

I wake up, but without Wes.

My heart starts to pound while I sit up and look around the room, but he's not here.

Stop overreacting, Aaliyah.

I throw on my clothes and walk into the bathroom to see if he's showering, but he's not in this room at all.

Groaning, I grab my phone to call him, and naturally he doesn't answer, so I go to the guys room.

"Knock knock" I open the door with the extra 'key' they gave me.

They're still sleeping.

"What are you doing?" I hear a familiar voice morning voice, causing me to look up and see Wes with a plate of pancakes in his hands.

"You scared me" I release a breath of relief.

"I just went to get you breakfast in bed, but now you're awake" he laughs and puts his hand on my back, leading me to our room.

I close the door behind us. "Breakfast is open this early?" I ask, hugging myself as it all of a sudden got freezing.

"Yeah, I didn't believe it either" he laughs and pulls off his shirt. "Please tell me I didn't walk all the way down to the cafeteria for nothing"

"No no, I'll eat" I sit in the bed next to him, noticing his scratched up back. "Your back..."

"No thanks to my girlfriend" he laughs and I frown in disappointment in myself. He notices and takes my hand. "I love you"

"I love you"

He passionately kisses me.

We eat the pancakes and start packing our bags to head back home.

You're probably wondering why we left the campsite and are literally in a hotel when we have the motor home. Well, the reason is stupid. The boys didn't wanna drive and they were CaR sIcK.

Whateverrr.

Parker and Lorenzo walk in, ready to leave.

So we all check out of the hotel and get in the car.

"I'll drive" Wes selflessly says and the boys nod, going to the beds to sleep.

"I was gonna drive" I push my eyebrows together. "Didn't we all agree to me driving home?"

He shakes his head. "I was never gonna let you drive three hours home"

"Wes, I love you, but, I'm not a baby. You don't have to treat me like one" I sigh and he clenches his jaw. "I'm sorry" I sit at the seat by him.

"I know you're not... I just want you to relax" he starts the car.

"With that being said, I'm taking a nap" I laugh before cuddling up on the seat.

He places his hand on my thigh.

"Home sweet home" Parker jumps on the couch.

"My bed!" Lorenzo runs to his room, making me playfully roll my eyes.

Mom walks to me, smiling and hugging me. "I missed you!"

"I missed you too" I smile, rubbing her back before pulling away. "Any news?"

She shakes her head with her lips curves down. "Surprisingly no. It's been quiet here"

"That's good, haven't heard from dad?" I ask.

Looking hesitant, she shakes her head. "No"

"Are you lying?" I push my eyebrows together and tilt my head.

She squints. "Are you?"

"What'd he say?" I release my breath.

"He wants us to meet up with him for lunch" she sighs and shakes her head. "But I told him I'd ask you"

I tug my lips to the side. "I'll go if you want to, I don't mind"

"Are you sure?" she asks and I nod. "I'll call him later"

I give her a thumbs up and turn to Wes to see him on his phone, texting. "Your dad miss you?" I chuckle.

He looks up at me, faking a smile. "Yeah. I'm gonna go head out"

"Okay!" I kiss his cheek. "Are you coming back to stay the night?"

He clenches his jaw. "I'm gonna spend the next few nights at my house"

"Oh..." I trail off.

"I'll see you later" he kisses my forehead. "I love you"

"I love you too" I fake a smile.

I shouldn't be selfish.

He wants to spend time with his dad.

"Bye guys!" Wes waves goodbye before leaving.

Mom looks at me, smirking. "Loooove?"

I blush and run to my room.

"Where did my best friend go?" Parker peeks his head through my door.

"He went home" I pull out my laptop.

"Watcha gonna watch? PORN?!" he says the last part loudly.

I look at him. "Parker, please?"

"Why are you sad? THE Aaliyah Archer is never sad! She heals the sad!" he runs and jumps on my bed.

I stressfully run my fingers through my long thin hair. "Is it selfish of me to still want Wes here? Even when he wants to see his dad?"

Parker exhales and takes my hands. "Aaliyah, I love you, but, yes. He's been with a different family for the weekend, let him be with his"

"I just miss him already, I guess" I tug my lips to the side and he nods, kissing my forehead before leaving.

I sigh.

Now he's not answering his texts?

Stop, Aaliyah.

You're being so selfish and obsessive.

He's spending time with his dad.

Nothing else.

FUCKK.

I hiccup once again.

When I'm stressed, I hiccup.

Hey, I don't make fun of your little habits so don't make fun of mine.

But I think a lot of people hiccup when stressed.

I don't know.

"Mommy!"

I'm snapped out of my thoughts by a little girl crying.

Looking over, I see exactly that, so I walk up to her and kneel down. "Hey love! Are you lost?"

"Yes" she sobs.

"What's your name?" I ask.

"I'm Gabriela" she chokes on her tears.

My heart breaks.

"Don't cry!! We'll find your mom, it's pretty easy to get lost here. I got lost here without my mom at least twice" I chuckle and she starts calming down. "I'm Aaliyah! Do you want me to help you?"

She sadly nods. "Please"

"Okay! Where did you last see her?" I stand up and she holds my hand, making me smile.

I kinda want a kid.

Wish Wes would answer his phone so I could tell his ass.
