I'm back with another update!!!

The bed felt empty and cold without Payne on it and his absence was the first thing I noticed as I got up.

I don't know where he rushed off but obviously it had been urgent because according to the alarm clock on my bedside table it was only 9:23AM.

Crawling off the bed I went into the bathroom where I brushed my teeth and showered.

As I got out I took a good look at myself in the mirror.

Last night I'd had the best sleep of my life and the glow in my eyes and the blush on my cheeks proved such.

Walking back into the room I crossed over to the wardrobe where I changed into cropped black jeans and a blue baggy T-shirt. Shoving my feet into a pair of slippers I made my way out of my room.

I headed straight for downstairs expecting to see one of the twins there because the entire house was dead silent.

The slippers made weird slapping noise as it echoed on the wooden flooring. Going into the kitchen I rummaged through the cupboard trying to figure out what to make for breakfast.

There was a box of pancake mix and I decided to make them. They were quick and easy. Now that we were in this house I'd have to make for Payge as well. I didn't mind making for more, cooking came like a hobby to me or maybe a chore that I enjoyed.

I fixed my hair into a high bun at the top of my head so it wouldn't disturb me as I cooked and  while pouring out my first pancake the kitchen door swung open.

"Morn—"

"O my God!" Squealed Payge as she basically ran into the kitchen and took a seat on a nearby kitchen counter where she could watch me cook. "I could kiss you right now!" She said and screamed.

I was so confused I accidentally threw out too much batter into the pan.

"Why? What did I do?"

"Pancakes! You have no freaking idea how I'm craving this right now, will you be a dear, kind, beautiful slice of cheesecake and put strawberries in them?"

I turned to face Payge and the anticipation on her face for the pancakes was adorable. She looked almost ready to drool.

Then I noticed her clothing.

She was in a peach bra and pink shorts that stopped just under her butt. Her belly was flat and a little muscular and I wondered how her belly would look when she was far along in the pregnancy. Her hair and face looked like a hot mess and I had to keep repeating that this woman is as murderous as her brother is so I couldn't make fun at how crappy she looked.

"I know I look like shit." She groaned out covering her face.

I couldn't help my laughter.
"I'll add in the strawberries. I noticed there's ice cream in the fridge, just saying."

Her jaw hit the ground and I saw her drool. The Flash had nothing on the speed Payge had as she got to the ice cream and returned back to her seat in a second.

Turning back to my pancakes and flipping them I could hear her moans of delight. "For what its worth, I love you so much right now I could bite you and mark your ass, literally and Payne could blow me if he's got a problem with that."

I shook with laughter and nodded my head.

This girl.

About a half hour later I was on my last batch of pancakes because every time I finished one they would just magically disappear and I'd turn and glare at Payge behind me and she'd just shrugged. I swear feeding a craving pregnant woman was like feeding a parasite, she never had enough!

I feared for when she got to her last months of the pregnancy.

Putting aside Payne's breakfast and leaving a glass of juice for him in the fridge for whenever he came down I sat in front of Payge on a stool where I ate in silence and Payge moaned every two bites. She'd stacked her food up with ten pancakes and extra strawberries with the entire can of whipped cream.

"You are so Payge approved right now." She moaned against a bite and I blushed.

After cleaning up our mess while Payge had seriously ditched me to go wherever she went, I strolled around the house and even checked out the backyard. Payne was nowhere downstairs so that only left upstairs, in his room.

Climbing up the staircase I went to Payne's door and knocked.

No answer.

I knocked again, harder this time.

"Fuck off." Payne groaned out his voice heavy and his words slurred.

"Its me open up." He cursed again.

"I'm not really... What's the word, presentable? Or some shit right now. I'll .. Uhm.. Yeah." Silence.

What?

Opening the door to his room I let myself in and found Payne sprawled out on his bed with three bottles accompanying him.

"So this what you've been doing in here all this time?" I felt my anger rise at the idiocy of this. "Are you kidding me?" I marched over to the bed and took the bottles away from him and he groaned as I took them away.

"I made breakfast for you! I searched all over for you and this is what you've been doing?" Standing directly next to his lying form I was two seconds from slapping Payne. Why would he possibly turn to alcohol at nine in the morning, or maybe even earlier than that because he hadn't been with me when I woke up.

"Alexis I can't do this right now." He slurred and I punched him in his arm. He didn't even budge.

"Am I too much for you to handle so you're turning to alcohol! We've only been together for one night and this is what you do!" My voice cracked and I felt like everything, him saying he'd try and not run off and even what he did last night, holding me while I cried. It all felt like a lie right now because as soon as he left me he came to drown his stress with alcohol.

"I'll put you out of your suffering, you don't have to be with me anymore." I felt hot tears threaten to spill and I fought to keep my voice from breaking. "I guess I can't force you to try, I can't force you to be happy with me!"

I turned and stormed to the door and as soon as my hand touched the knob a big warm body came and grabbed me by my waist and lifted me of the ground.

I fought against Payne's hold on me but with him being intoxicated and all, getting him off balance wasn't a good thing and we both fell to the ground in a loud thud.

"Let go of me!" I screamed at him trying to pry his hands off of me but he only held me tighter.

"No." He growled in my ears and then in a switch of positions Payne flipped me over so I laid flat on the black carpet of the room and he straddled me. His hair fell in his face as he bent down to look at me and it was evident the the liquor was greatly affecting him even though he was fighting it dangerously.

"Let me go!" I beat against his chest through the hoodie he had on and he just shook his head and dropped on top of me. Releaving his hands from holding his body up.

"I missed you." He murmured  in my ears and I could only smell a hint of alcohol on his breath.

"I'm sure you have!" I pushed against him but with his head next to mine on the carpet and his hands wrapped around my torso I knew I wasn't going to get up.

His hand caressed my cheek and his droopy eyes skimmed over my face.

"I just needed... Think.. "He slurred and pulled me even more to him so I was now pressed against him on my side and we faced each other. "Alcohol... think."

I slapped him across his face and he held his cheek. I knew I could only get away with slapping a drunk Payne, normal Payne will go Godzilla on my ass if I did that.

"Think about what? How much you regret kissing me in front of everyone." He shook his head.

"I'll never .... Regret you." He slurred and pulled my face towards his claiming my lips in a kiss.

I pulled away.

"You act like you do, you're being so weird with me. Barely talking." I tried to look away from his silver eyes but I kept coming back to it.

"I didn't know what..I'm suposoed to do, I'm sorry. " he kissed me once more and pulled away quickly as if expecting me to push him away.

Payne had never apologized to me before and hearing a drunk Payne apologize was very confusing.

"I'm sorry."He repeated and as he kissed me again I remembered an old theory that you spoke the truth while you were drunk.

Holding Payne's wild silver eyes I asked, "Do you love me?"

I was probably pushing it, setting myself up for heart break when I heard the truth but it was worth a shot. Payne dropped his eyes and a frown covered his mouth.

"No." My heart sunk in my chest and tears filled in my eyes. I turned away from Payne and tried to contain myself. I'd heard him say he couldn't love me a million times but in this moment it devastated me more than anything. It freaking tore me apart hearing him say it so sincere, even when he was drunk

As I fought for control of my inner pain his warm fingers grasped my chin and tilted my face toward his. He had a soft smile on his face and he looked directly at my lips as he spoke, "but I want to."

Drunk Payne leaned down and claimed my lips once more but this kiss wasn't rushed, it was slow and passionate. He didn't shove his tongue inside my mouth he just seemed to enjoy the feel of my lips on his.

With ever second our kiss deepened I felt myself falling back into place. I didn't expect Payne to say what he did but I felt great hope with that. I believed him.

After a long make out with Payne he had the courtesy to excuse himself as he climbed back into bed. With his drunken state I decided to leave him until it wore off, maybe go downstairs and watch TV or keep Payge company.

As I walked down te hallways then down the staircase and entered into the living room a smile tugged at my lips.

I really liked drunk Payne.
