Chapter 24: 13I’ll Swim To The Surface To Breathe Again
The next day, everything hurt, and ached. I stayed under my blan-kets for a while, until light came into my room.
Most of last night, was a blur, it is for the best, though. As long as I didn't do anything too stupid. As long as I, didn't let a secret out.
Someone knocks on my door.
It's Hayes
I go to the door, stopping halfway there to look in the mirror.
I'm now wearing an oversized t-shirt, underwear, and my "lucky" bra Rochelle got me. According to Rochelle, you wear it for your "first time".
I might've done something stupid last night.
Hayes stops knocking and opens the door. I grab a blanket to cover myself.
"Sorry." He says.
Silence pours into the room. Hayes won't look at me. My pit pulses.
"You want to go pick up some doughnuts?" Hayes asks.
"Hayes, where are my clothes, from last night?" I laugh to cover the pounding fear, all over.
"They're in the washer. I washed them for you." He says.
"Why did you wash them?" I ask.
"Because, they were dirty." He says. I only nod.
"Where's Rochelle?" I ask.
He opens the door wider and leans closer to me. His next words hurt me.
"She crashed at my house." He says.
"Are you coming?" His voice was raspy.
"No!" I say.
"Fine." Hayes huffs.
"No. Sure. I'll be right down." I say.
I close the door, and lean against it, head in hands.
I think I had sex last night
