Chapter 18 - So I'll Ask Again

A/N: IMPORTANT PLEASE READ!!! Okay sorry but I stuffed up the last chapter a bit, I recently added something to it so can you just re-read it before reading this chapter because otherwise this won't make much sense... So yeah, you'll know where the new part is and it'll automatically click in your head when you finish the new part!! So please just re read or it won't make sense :) (This was said at 20/06/14, so if you read the last chapter after this then don't worry about it obviously!)

Sorry not much sense was made but it's hard to explain. Basically just RE READ THE LAST CHAPTER!

Also it may be quite short but I wanted to give you more so...

Thank youuu and as always, read comment vote and enjoy!!

*************************

I slowly pried my eyes open, squinting when at the bright sunlight that filtered through the open curtains.

For a moment I was enjoying the comforting warmth of the sunshine on my face until my mind flashed back to last night.

It's official, I was freaking out.

I slowly, hesitantly rolled over and saw Jayden's peaceful, sleeping face.

Good.

I slipped out of bed and pulled on my pyjama shorts and a random t-shirt that was lying on the floor, then all but ran out of the room, closing the door silently behind me.

It was light outside and I was worried that I would run into everyone but only Caleb was up and on the couch.

Not wanting to talk to him - or anyone else for that matter - I ran out of the hallway and then turned to the door,

"Katia," Caleb started but I didn't turn to see his face or pause long enough to hear the emotion in it.

I slipped out of the door and I was tempted to slam it but then I realised I didn't want anyone else waking up - especially Jay - so just as the door was about to slam I stopped it, then closed it quietly and sprinted down to the river, jumping over the rocks and dodging the roots sticking out of the ground with tears threatening to spill out of my eyes and down onto my cheeks.

What was I supposed to do now?

It's not like we had talked about what we were doing, it just kind of happened and I had no idea what to think.

I mean, I knew Jayden cared about me, he had said that much but why did we have to do... that, and stuff everything up!!!!

I knew from the moment I woke up that I had stuffed everything up by saying yes.

I can't believe I said yes, why would I do something stupid like that???

Why couldn't we have just made out like Kenzie and Ty did?

Why couldn't we have just gone on a date like Immy and Jesse?

Why couldn't we have thought about it? Talked about it?

Why why why why WHY??????

I had finally made it to the river so I climbed in between the bunch of rocks and sat on one that was lower than the rest, effectively concealing myself from the view of anyone who didn't know where they were going.

I ran my fingers through my hair and covered my face with my hands.

I had messed up everything. Stupid freaking brain!

"Katia?" I heard the voice before I saw the face in between the crack in the rocks.

My heart skipped a beat when I heard a deep, male voice far too close to me, then the blonde hair came into view and my heart continued.

It was only Caleb.

"Katia I know you're do-" he started to shout but I cut him off.

"I'm here," I stood up so that my head was poking out from in between the rocks. Caleb's head whipped around to face me with a look of relief on his face.

"What the hell happened??" Caleb asked, climbing over the rocks and dropping into my hideout where we sat, facing each other with our backs on the rocks opposite each other.

I hesitated. He wouldn't be asking with so much wary-ness in his voice if it was only me had seen running out of the house.

"What do you mean?" I asked, half procrasting the answer I knew I was bound to give.

His dark green eyes looked up into mine as he raised an eyebrow. I could tell he was about to make a comment like Really? You don't know? But he didn't.

"Well, first you coming running out into the lounge nearly crying then run out the door. Then I go down to your room to see what Jayden could have possibly done but he was asleep." Caleb paused, running a hand through his light hair that the sun had caught in it's light.

"And then," he continued. "I see Jayden wake up and when he rolled over he flipped out. Not even kidding he was, well... Upset, to say the very least. Actually, that doesn't even begin to cover it. But after a minute he just leaned against the wall and slid down, face in hands and he didn't look too good."

I hugged my knees to my chest then put my head on my knees, curling up into a ball and letting the tears stream down cheeks, dampening my bare legs but I couldn't care less.

After a minute of silence, Caleb talked. "So I'll ask again, what the hell happened?"

"Didn't he tell you?" I mumbled, then turned my face to look at Caleb and rested my chin on my knees.

Caleb shrugged, looking at me with a very worried expression. "He told me that you two slept together last night, but as soon as he choked that out he started-"

"Caleb stop." I said, my voice sounding weak.

I hated not being the strong, fearless girl that I used to be, but I guess love can break through the toughest of masks.

I took a deep breath then spoke. The words were tumbling out of my mouth before I realised they had even crossed my mind. "Well obviously last night was just, wow. I didn't expect.. Well, it doesn't matter. But I woke up this morning and realised I had screwed everything up. I know Jay cares about me to an extent but we didn't talk about it, it just kind of happened. Then, obviously, I freaked out and needed to clear my head. It just, nothing makes sense and me and Jay wouldn't... work."

"I'm sorry, but what about you and Jay wouldn't work??" Caleb huffed, looking surprisingly annoyed. "There is no way you wouldn't work! You and Jayden are the most perfect couple I have ever seen, even though you're not officially dating yet but whatever. I grew up with the two of you as best friends and it's always been you two, always. Jayden's loud, funny personality perfectly compliments your quiet, kind, sarcastic one. When you don't talk he does and when he's being funny you make a sarcastic comment back. You're always in this little bubble when you're together and I'm surprised you're not freaking married by now, but seriously. You can not physically say that you and Jayden would not work."

Wow, that was... Was that true?

Surely it wasn't, but then again, Caleb doesn't lie. Even when we were young he would always be straight with us. If I tried on a dress he'd tell me that it was sluttly and unflattering and tell me to go change. If you asked him something he would say the answer back, completely blunt.

"Caleb... What do I do?" I asked, almost desperately. I needed to talk to Jay - that much was obvious - but I didn't know what to say.

"Look, I'll take Ty, Kenzie and Trent into town and go shopping so that you can talk to Jay." Caleb explained, then added with a smirk and a wink. "Or just do a repeat of last night and get rid of all that built up tension."

I rolled my eyes but smiled at my best friend, my big brother.

"Thanks Caleb." I leaned over and hugged him and I felt his arms hug me back immediately.

When he pulled back he smiled then stood up. "Come back up in twenty minutes. You'll have time to figure out what to say and I can get everyone out of the house."

I nodded, then Caleb quickly leaned over and kissed my forehead, then climbed the rock and dissapeared out of sight.

My brain immediately went into overdrive, but the essential question remained:

What the hell do I say???
