Kiss me goodbye

9

Thinkin' of ya when I'm goin' to bed

When I wake up think of ya again

You are my homie, lover and friend

Exactly why

You light me up inside

Like the 4th of July

Whenever your around

I always seem to smile

I started looking for my phone when it started ringing. Finally finding it under my bed covers I wanted to answer it but Jay ended the call.

I called him back and after 3 rings he answered.

“Where was your phone this time?”

“Under my bed covers.” I heard him chuckle at my reply.

“Anywaaay. What are you doing?”

“Nothing much. I’m coming from a meeting actually.”

“Oh. Was it fun?”

“It was a meeting. Meetings are never fun. How are you?”

“I am good. You?”

We continued to talk for over an hour.

“Hey babe, I got to go. I will call you later okay?” and with that he hung up.

He called me BABE?! He never called me that!

-To Elle-

I need your advice. Call me the second you get some time for you BFF.

My stay here is almost over and since my second day here she’s been ignoring my calls and texts. I tried with Jay but he always says she still didn’t get on board with the fact that she’s a werewolf now. And Sam is the same. Both of them are ignoring me.

“Becca! Dinner is ready!”

“Okay!!!”

I stood up from my bed when the dizziness returned. It’s been happening since Elle got bitten. I tried to walk to the door but before I even made a step complete dark was before my eyes.

I woke up with a cold cloth on my forehead and my brother with his head in his hands and his arms on his knees sitting on my bed beside me.

“Matt?” he looked up at me and it was the first time I saw tears on his face. I wanted to ask him what was wrong. But that would be a stupid question, so we stayed like that staring at each other until Tina came back in.

“So, I called a doctor and told him we are coming.”

Doctor?

Matt saw the look on my face and his eyes told me not to fight it that I am going to the hospital whether I like it or not.

2 hours later we were in the hospital waiting for the results.

I was daydreaming (again) about Jay (again) and wondered what he was doing. Whether he was missing me like I missed him. And I can’t forget how he called me babe. I mean was it a slip up, did he call that every girl he had a make out with? I mean it is obvious that there were girls before me (and maybe even after). With his looks who wouldn’t want to ‘tap that’ as guys would say.

“How long?” Matt broke my thoughts with a single sentence ‘how long’ I knew what he meant but I didn’t say anything.

Talking about it would only make it even more real.

“How long?” he asked again. And again, I didn’t answer. He had to ask me again before I answered

“After your last visit.” has happened even before that, but I won’t tell him that.

“My last visit? That’s almost a month ago. Why didn’t you tell me? This is serious. This is your life.”

“You think I don’t know that? That it’s serious? You think I wanted it to happen? I mean it almost didn’t work last time. And now I have to tell my brother that it is happening again? It’s not easy. I didn’t know how to tell you. Every time we were on the phone you were happy and I didn’t want to spoil your mood.”

“Becca I’m your brother. I don’t care in what mood I am. You tell me this kind of things.”

“Matt?”

“Yeah?”

“I’m sorry.” He smiled at me and I leaned my head on his shoulder and he put his head on mine.

Sometime in while our talk Tina left to give us some space. We fell into silence and waited for the doctor to come. We both suspected what he’s going to say. But there’s still hope. Hope that we are both wrong.
