Chapter 23

Now I am sitting in the passenger seat of Conrads car on the way to find Belly and Taylor to give them clothes.
I was so worried about them.

Ben was in the back of the car. All of us where silent it was clear that all of us where worried about the girls.

I did not ask about the text Conrad sent Belly that freaked Nicole out. I did not think it was the time to.

Luckily we found the two naked girls pretty fast. But we also found someone else. Jeremiah. He was already there when we pull up. Just great.

We all get out of the car. I run to the two naked girls huddled in a dirty blanket. "omg I am so glad you guy are ok!" I said and hugging the two. They hugged me back to the best of there ability considering they where trying not to flash everyone.

Jeremiah and Conrad held a balnket up while they changed while Ben and I kept watch.

Soon we where leaving Taylor came with Conrad Ben and I. Belly went with Jeremiah which made me want to puke.

I got in the back seat with Ben. He reached his hand out and squeezed mine. He knew what I was thinking before I said anything.

"crazy night huh" Conrad broke the acward silence in the car. "it didn't have to be if you would have just let her go" Taylor says. The rest of the car ride was quite.

What Taylor said had me thinking. If I do not let Jeremiah go I could hurt Belly and I do not want to do that.

Finally when we arrive at the beach house I head straight to my room. Ben was right behind me.

As soon as I got in my room I broke out in tears. "what's wrong?" Ben asked worriedly. "I have to let him go I am goanna hurt him and Belly both and I can not do that!" I cry.  Ben dose not say anything he just pulls me into his arms. I cry in Bens arms. "I do not know what to do" I say. "Neither do I but I am goanna be here for you" Ben says.

After awhile I calm down and we go downstairs to watch a movie together. Half way into the movie Jeremiah and Belly walk in. They are just getting home? They where laughing. I felt like I was being punched in the stomach.

"Hey what are you guys watching?" Belly asked turning towards us. "Some rom con it is kind of boring I am going to bed night Ben" I say and go to leave. Ben grabs my arm and mouths 'are you ok' I nod and leave.

That was a lie. I was not but I just needed to sleep. I layed in my bed and cried myself to sleep like a pathetic loser.

The next morning Ben woke me up and told me what happened after I went to bed.

I guess Jeremiah and Belly ended up watching the movie with him. He said that Jeremiah was very cold with him. Jeremiah asked how Ben and I had met. Of course now Jeremiah was trying to play big brother.

After awhile of us talking we went downstairs. Conrad and Steven where playing video games. "Hey Ben you want to play?" Steven asked. Ben agreed and they began to play. Ben was pretty good a video games he was good at most things. 

I went to the kitchen to look for food. Jeremiah was sitting at the counter. I went to make myself cereal when he spoke.

"do you want to go for a muffin run?" He asked. Part of me wanted to say no and keep avoiding him but that is not what I did.

"ya sure" I said. Maybe he would explain to me what is going on  why he kissed me then just left me. He didn't though. What he did do is ask me about Ben. "So whats with that Ben guy" He asked.  of course he wanted to hang out with me to get information about a guy he thinks I like. Of course he did not want to talk about what happened on the 4th

. "He is my friend from school" I tell him. "Why did Bailey not come down she is a better volleyball player" Jeremiah asked. I shook my head.  "Bailey couldn't make it and Ben offered and he is a pretty good player" I say. He nods I could tell he wanted to ask more questions about Ben but he didn't. I was relived he was done grilling me.

However the silence was even more annoying. It was so unlike us. We always had somthing to say to each other. Finally Jeremiah decided he didn't want to sit in silence.

"Are you ready for the ball?" Jeremiah asked. "Ugh ya I don't have a date but maybe me and belly can just go together" I joked. "Well actually Belly asked me to be her date last night" Jeremiah said.

When he said that I wanted to cry. I wanted to scream at him. I wanted to tell him that he was such a asshole. But I didn't do any of that or say any of that.

"oh wow looks like I need to find a date now too" I said trying to joke around. "ya the time is ticking" Jeremiah joked. I let out a laugh. It was not real but it didn't seem like he noticed.

"you know Con dose not have a date" Jeremiah says. I mean he was not wrong. Conrad would be a good option he knew the dance's but I knew why Jeremiah wanted Conrad to be my date. He was hoping that I would keep Conrad away from Belly and I was not going to make Jeremiahs life easier.

"eww no Conrad would trip me or some shit" I said. That was not true Conrad would be a gentleman. "you know he would be nice my mom would kill him if he ruined your night" Jeremiah said. He was right Susannah would flip if Conrad did anything to mess up my night. However I did not agree with him instead I said "I have someone in mind already."
