His to Ruin.

Chapter 6

Jacqueline’s POV

“Ughhh what’s that loud noise”, I said while rolling in bed. “Why do I feel so tired, I didn't even do anything yesterday..Ohhh” I remember how my evening went now my face is red as hell. “Where could Drey have gone", This time I sat up still feeling lazy as f**k but my phone rang again, I just had to get up to search for that goddamn phone, “finally” it was on the table just looking at me and I didn't see it.

“Hi, bestie. What's up? I didn't see you in school yesterday, and I’m still not seeing you anywhere in school this morning. Jacqueline Woods, where the f**k are you?”

“Well I didn't go to school yesterday and I’m also not going to be in school today”

“Why?!”

“Well I spent my Monday with Drey and I’m still going to be here throughout today”

“Shut up!!!” Tracy said while squealing over the phone “That means you spent the night there. Don't tell me you're using Drey to heal from Andrew”

“Ohh Tracy please stop. I’m not using anyone. I feel there was this unforeseen or unspoken feeling I have for Drey, and now that I’m not in any relationship I can embrace it. Just be happy for me”

“Wait what? Are you not with Andrew anymore? How? When? Why don’t I know about this, I thought it was just an issue and you guys would settle later, I had no idea you'd end it. But I’m really glad you did cause baby girl you've been stressing and don't get me wrong love. I am happy for you, I just don't want you to be hurt again, and before I forget while looking for you one of your teachers saw me and said you have a project work or something like that and the due date is two weeks from now, so just know when you resume you have work to do”

“Ughhh, I can't wait till I’m done with school”

“Same here Jacqueline, same here. Anyway we'd talk later I have classes to attend”

“Ok bye love you”

“Ewww,” Tracy said laughing “You’re supposed to be all lovey dovey with Drey, not me,” she said still laughing then she hung up.

After the call, I pulled off my clothes and went into the bathroom to have a nice warm bath, and brushed afterward.

Now I’m in Drey’s closet looking through my packed stuff and brought out my other Jean shorts with a tank top and put them on.

I’m so hungry right now that I can smell something good close by and it'll probably be something from the kitchen downstairs. I hurriedly put on some clothes, so I could get something to eat.

I opened the closet door to his room and I saw Drey placing food down on the table, carefully setting it up.

“Dreyyy, you know you're still healing you can't be lifting things or anything heavy. Why did you not just stay in bed?”, I said while rushing towards him to help out.

But Drey just chuckled in response and said “But I lifted you with ease and you didn't complain”, Now he is smiling cause he knows he rendered me flustered and speechless.

“Come let's eat, I made breakfast”

I just sat with a smile plastered on my face cause I was so hungry and I’m glad it's eggs and potatoes.

I hope these happy feelings last.

A thought crossed my mind, making me ponder my failed relationship with Andrew. So I wasted all those years thinking we were building our lives together.

I looked at Drey still eating and enjoying my meal,

“Why haven't I seen Drey in this light?” I asked myself.

I shouldn't be this attached. It's not like we are dating or anything.

Lost in thoughts overthinking, I subconsciously kept on using the food to drown in overthinking

“Jacqueline, calm down the food isn't running away,” Drey said while trying to clean the oil close to my lips.

Then I noticed his bandage needed to be changed.

“Drey your bandage needs to be changed where is the kit I’m to use?”

“Don't worry about that now let’s finish up first then we'll talk about that”

“But it can't get easily infected Drey,” I said disagreeing with him.

“Ten to fifteen minutes won't get it infected Jacqueline” he responded

I rolled my eyes, “That's the dumbest thing you’ve ever said.”

I could only agree with him. Not because of what he said but because I was still very much hungry and I planned on eating well.

He got up before me to lie on his bed and I’m still here devouring the rest of the food. I guess he's waiting for me to finish eating before he can bathe. Now I’m done and piling up the plates so I can take them down. “Drey just give me some minutes, I'll be back before you know it”, Then I left for the kitchen.

Different thoughts clouded my mind, like why am I taking this so well, what the f**k am I doing, am I any better than Andrew?

I felt a little bit disturbed and unsettled because I felt dirty for having s*x with someone I wasn't committed to nor was he.

Lost in thought, I almost tripped with the plates in my hand, got to the kitchen, and placed the plates in the dishwasher.

“Now where could Bob be” I could easily go back up to meet Drey to call him but I wanted to explore a bit.

Drey’s place is nice and a bit confusing at the same time cause of the countless number of doors I've been seeing. I walked through the big hallway taking in the paintings and aesthetically pleasing figures.

Curiosity got the best of me, so I opened one of the doors. What I saw left me frozen in disbelief.
