Nights After Storm

Chapter 11

As I opened the door I was immediately pulled into a hug.

I held back tears and sniffed "just let it out"  he whispered in my ears.

I couldn't hold it anymore I let it out I didn't realize how long I had been crying but I knew it was long because of the now wet patch on his tux.

"sorry" I muttered.

"there is nothing to be sorry about he is an ass, wanna go home?" he asked and my mind went back to homecoming and my friends that where there.

He must have read my mind when he said "I will text them and tell them what happened I'm sure they will understand" I nodded

He looked at me with pure pity in his eyes, he brought up his hand to my face and tucked the loose strands of hair at the back of my ear his hand stayed a bit too long –but hey! I'm not complaining– he ignited some feelings I never thought will be there towards him.

I lifted my gaze from his hand to his eye and my stomach did a complete summersault and tied in knots I felt like I was going to throw up.

I quickly slipped out of his grip and headed for the sink, I threw up every of my body content while he held up my hair.

"let's get you home" he put his hand on the small of my back guiding me out of the washroom. He is such a gentleman, I wonder why I hadn't noticed that earlier maybe because I was obsessing over that son of a bitch.

I felt sick and weak. As we reached outside the night breeze hit my face calming me down.

The limo took us back to my house my mom was walking late today again so I was all alone I didn't feel like being alone today.

Jay saw me fumbling with the keys and offered to help me we got in and the place was quite just as I expected it to and he led me upstairs.

He made sure I had drunk water, changed into my pj's and I'm tucked in bed. "OK I think I should be heading home now".

"Wait! jay" I called out to him just as he opens the door "please stay I don't want to be alone" I pleaded.

"Sure" I watched him as he slipped out of his tux to be left with only shorts. I couldn't help as I let my gaze linger on his perfectly toned body and his muscular structure.

I internally thanked God that he didn't just see me checking him out.

His shadow moved closer, I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep the bed deepened beside me and a pair of arms snaked around my waist pulling me into his chest I matched my breathing with his and in no time I was asleep.

****
I woke up and the bed felt empty I turned around and he was gone but I noticed a piece of folded paper on my bed.

I unfolded it and it read.

Hey,if you see this you are probably awake then sorry I had to leave because I have practice and I didn't want to wake you cause you look so cute and peaceful I will stop by later just to see how you are doing.

BTW I tore this out of your note I couldn't fine any other paper.

Love
Jay.

I struggled and finally got out of bed it was like 10 in the morning, I got into the shower shampooed my hair and did the usual while doing those I blasted music round the house.

I'm pretty sure my mom is already at work that's why she didn't come bursting into my room to complain.

I went downstairs and to the kitchen to make break fast and clear the dishes.

I was surprised to see my mom already making breakfast then it hit me today is Sunday she is off work.

"Morning mom"

"Morning sweetie, how have you been?"

I'd rather not talk about it "Been good"

"Look I know we have not been close since we came here its work and all but I will always try to make out time"

"It's OK mom I understand"

"Thanks sweetie love you"

"Love you too mom"

I threw myself in the sofa and scrolled through the channels.

ugh!

There is nothing to watch, I decided to call Liv so we could hang and as usual she picked on the first ring.

"Yoo Liv wassup?"

"Nothing much"

"K wanna hang?"

"Hell yeah!" I had to move the phone from my ear or I could have gone deaf.

"I'm sure you don't plan on making me deaf"

"Maybe I do" she said giggling on the other end "be there in a sec".

I know I'm supposed to be depressed and shit right now or maybe drowning myself in ice cream or crying myself to sleep but I don't feel like that life just has to go on I miss him around but he is a piece of shit and he doesn't deserve anything nice screw him.

The door bell rang and I went to answer it while my phone vibrated in my pocket. Jay.

"Hey,how was practice"

"It was good coach made us stay longer according to him 'we are slacking'" I wanted to laugh at his attempt of copying coach's voice.

"Nice"

"Are you okay?" I could literally see his worried face right in front of me.

"Yeah I'm uhm...... Fine" even tho I wasn't I was just not sure of myself at all I'm a mess.

"Okay?" He said more like a question "anyways I called so you could meet someone special come over get your mind off things."

"Sure but can I come with Liv she Is at mine"

"Yeah the more the merrier"

"K see you soon"

"Bye"

As Soon as i hung up Liv attacked me "who was that?"

"Jay. He wants us over let's go"

"No you look like a mess"

"I don't care can we just go" I said pulling her out with me.

Mom will probably look for me but OK.

As I rang the door bell a voice came from inside "coming" and that wasn't Jay it sounded a little bit lighter but similar and a lot too familiar.

The door swung open reveling someone I didn't think I will see in my life again, I stood there frozen my feet glued to the ground.

OMG cliffhanger!!!

Who could that dude be?🤔
