Chaper 31
That night I slept in Steven's room. I didn't want to be alone. I don't think he did either. We expected belly to come in to but she didn't.
Susannah had agreed to do treatments which has everyone in the house feeling hopeful.
I was sitting in the living room watching soap operas with Susannah when belly and Conrad walked in. They where holding hands.
I was happy for them. Part of me felt bad for Jeremiah but part of me was happy for belly. She finally got what she wanted. Conrad.
"I knew it" Susannah smiled looking at the two. "We all did" I giggled. I sent and little smirk to my sister. She rolled her eyes at me.
Belly went upstairs and Conrad sat and talked with his mom. I went upstairs to I needed to get ready. I couldn't spend all day in my pjs.
While I was walking to the bathroom to go shower I heard Jeremiah yelling at belly. I felt bad. I knew how he felt. I felt the same way.
I showered and got dressed. Then I decided to check on Jeremiah. I knocked on his door. "Jere it's me" I say softly. "Come in" he says.
I walk in. He is laying on his bed staring at the ceiling. I lay next to him. I get a sense of déjà vu. We where laying just like this in my room on the 4th.
"You ok?" I ask. "Not really" he says. I frown. "I'm sorry she did that to you" I say. "Ya I can't believe she played with my feelings and then kissed my brother! Who dose that? What kind of whore-" I cut him off. "Do not call my sister a whore!" I yelled sitting up.
I understood he was hurting and that she messed up she broke his heart but she was still my sister. "I should have known not to talk to you about this" Jeremiah says.
"I get your hurt I get she messed with your heart but she isn't a whore" I say. Jeremiah rolls his eyes at me. "You wouldn't get it" he said.
I began to laugh. "I wouldn't get it?" I continued to laugh. "You did exactly what belly did to you to me!" I yelled. He sat up. "I did not-" he tried. "Oh ya you kissed me then you kissed my sister!" I yell.
He just looked at me. "You know Jeremiah I came in here to try and get my best friend back" I say. "I know how you feel I know it hurts but being belligerent and calling her names dose nothing" I say. Then I left.
Two days later we left cousins. I didn't make up with Jeremiah. Neither did belly. Her and Conrad where in some weird "we are just friends" thing.
I hugged Conrad goodbye. Then I went to Susannah. Jeremiah had told Steven and my mom bye already and was not outside.
We left. I didn't see him again until thanksgiving.
