Concerned

   Ever since what happened on Friday, I haven't seen or heard from Jet. It was weird, but I understood his mom had just died.

"It's crazy that Val and Jets mom all died in less then two weeks." Kelly asked.

"I know." I said.

"Even more crazy that they both had a connection to Jet." She said.

"Did Jet even go to Vals funeral?" I asked.

"I didn't see him there." She said.

"Weird." I said.

"Yeah, but anyways would you wanna hang out after school with Jace and I?" She asked.

"I can't I'm grounded." I said.

"Wait why?" She asked.

"I didn't tell you?" I asked.

"No." She said.

"My guardian found out that I wasn't really at your house." I said.

"How long you grounded for?" She asked.

"Not for sure, but I'm guessing at least a week." I said.

"Let me know as soon as you get ungrounded." She said.

"I will." I said.

After school, John and I would still go and train at the church.

Today we trained for about five hours and then headed home. I was hungry and could definitely use a nice hot shower.

When we got home, I greeted Boy then headed straight upstairs. I turned on the light, shut my door, then went into my bathroom.

I turned on the water to the temperature I wanted then turned on the shower. I grabbed a towel , set it on the toilet then stripped out of my clothes.

I moved the curtain back and stepped in. I started off with my hair, drenching it in water. I grabbed the bottle of shampoo and put some into my hand then into my hair, making sure I got every inch.

I moved on to washing my body, after I rinsed my body off I went back to my hair. I put my hair back underneath the water and rinsed the shampoo out. After I was done, I turned off the water, moved the curtain and grabbed the towel.

I dried off my feet then stepped out. I wrapped the towel around my body then went back out to my room.

I grabbed some clothes to wear and placed them on my bed. I then went back into the bathroom and grabbed a bottle of lotion. I applied lotion all over my body then put on the clothes I had picked out.

After I was done, I placed my phone on the charger then headed downstairs.

When I got to the bottom of the stairs I was greeted by Boy and then followed him into the kitchen to see John cooking dinner.

"Mm whatever you're cooking smells good." I said.

"I'm cooking steak, some macaroni, and some vegetables." He said.

"That sounds good." I said.

"It's gonna taste good too." He said.

I walked over to the living room and decided to watch something on tv.

Occasionally I would look back at him, something was on my mind. I didn't know if I should ask him or not. I wonder if he still was in love with me, like he had said before.

If I kissed him would he kiss back? What would even happen? I needed to stop overthinking and just go for it.

I got off the couch and walked back into the kitchen, keeping my distance at first.
