Family Again (✔)

CHAPTER 16

My annoying phone woke me up from a deep sleep. Kylee and I were snuggled together on the couch . I eased myself away from her naked body and grabbed my phone . Why the heck was Jayden calling me at three in the morning ? Well, my morning .

"This better be important . It's three AM here. " I answered the call.

" It is. It's about Lia. "

I was wide awake now. My parental instincts kicking in.

"What is it? Is she okay?" I not too long spoke to her. She seemed fine. Happy. Unless she was hiding something from me.
Jayden explained to me about how Brandon and Jayson has been hitting her since I left. No words could describe the anger that was boiling inside of me.

"I'm trying. I really am. I know I've been an ass towards her, but I don't know what to do. They won't listen to me.! " He pulled his hair in frustration.

" I'm coming back. Right now."

"Now, Adam? What about your boss?"

"It's a family emergency. He'll understand. " I hung up the phone and started packing my bags to board the next flight home.

Kylee woke up to find me dressed and ready to leave. I told her I had to leave . A family emergency.

"You're leaving ? Are you coming back soon?" Her voice was hopeful.

" No, I don't think so. At least not until I fix whatever's going on." I sat next to her.

" Oh. " She said.

I took her phone from off the table. "I'm saving my number . ' I told her.

" I thought you didn't give your numbers to one night stands .". It's true I told her that when I first met her a few months ago. She was a one night stand. I never saw her again until I came here. The more I got to know her the more I liked her. I didn't want to just leave her, but I had no choice .

"Well, I guess we'll just have to see if our one night stand could turn into more . " I kissed her deeply . One last kiss. " When your exam is finished , stop bye. We'll catch up.". With one last kiss to the back of her hand, I was out the door and going back home to deal with whatever awaits .
