I'm sorry!

"Naomi! Naomi! NAOMI!" I jumped up and hid in my closet, between my new clothes. My bedroom door was slammed open and Jordan ran to me bed, only to frown when I wasn't there. "Naomi?" I watched him walk around my room frowning like he just dropped a piece of candy. His head whipped around and he stared into the closet. I stared into his green eyes as they squinted to see in the dark.

"Jordan! Get your ass down here or else or not getting waffles!" Bennett's voice shouted from down stairs.

Followed by Declan, "Leave Naomi alone! You can annoy her later!"

Jordan stood up and started walking out my room muttering, "I'm coming, geez." I could hear him yell as he walked down the hall, "Naomi loves me! You're just jealous you didn't- Ow! Stop doing that!" I let out a deep breath and left my closet slowly.

It's been a week since me and Jordan... kissed. I don't know why it's so hard to say, but I've been hiding from him since that day. He's been trying to get me to talk to him and look at him but I can't. I get this really weird feeling in my heart when I look at him and I feel like the butterflies in my stomach were eaten by bigger butterflies or aliens. I'm not ruling anything out, because the feeling I get in my stomach is not butterflies. It's something bigger.

I grabbed a white loose V neck shirt and grey pajama shorts. I set my glasses on my nightstand, closed and locked the bathroom door and stripped. I turned the water on and waited for it to turn hot. I got in and under the water. The water beats against my skin as the hot water relaxes my muscles. I tilted my head back and let the water run through my hair and over my face.

This week has been extra stressful.

I washed my hair and scrubbed my body. I turned off the water and stepped out, wrapping a towel around my naked body. I feel like throwing up, my stomach is so empty. I haven't felt like eating for the past couple days, due to nerves about being accepted in college so late. Me and Jordan also got our drivers license this week. I dried off and got dressed. I walked out and put my glasses back on.

I grabbed my dirty laundry and threw my towel in it before walking down stairs. I walked past the dining room and the kitchen, the guys were stuffing their faces with waffles.

"Hearyudoanlaudry?" Jordan spoke- well tried speaking around his food.

"What?" I looked at him but then quickly looked at the others. "What'd he say?"

"Are you doing laundry?" Declan muttered while taking a drink of milk.

"Oh! No I'm not, I'm just holding a basket full of my dirty clothes because I felt like it." I rolled my eyes walking away. I opened the door to the laundry room and started sorting them my clothes.

"Is that a yes?" I heard Jordan yell. "Hey! That's mine!"

"Not anymore." Bennett spoke.

I finished sorting and put in a load. I walked to the kitchen and grabbed a plate of waffles for myself. I took a seat next to Declan and started eating. My stomach growled in appreciation. I smiled and took a big bite. It got quiet. I slowly looked up. They were all staring at me. I took another bite without looking away.

"What? You guys have seen me eat a thousand times, why stare now?" They went back to eating.

"Today is the day we get to know if we got accepted." Bennett leaned back in his chair, now finished eating.

"I know." Declan muttered. I found it weird that he was so quiet.

"I'm not worried." We all looked at Jordan. "Who wouldn't want me in their college." He smiled smugly.
