I woke up to the sound of laughter coming from the main floor. What happened? I must of fallen asleep. I quietly got up from my bed an went to the top of the stairs. Their they were. Everyone. Even Joe and Frankie. I glanced down at the TV. They were watching A Christmas Story. I loved that movie. What just made it all better was that Nick and Mandy were cuddling on the floor. My eyes watered again and I raced for my room. I sat on my bed and pulled my cell phone from my pocket. I scrolled down my contact list until I reached “Katie”.
“Hello?” she answered. It must of been at least one in the morning back in LA.
“Hey,” I said through my tears. “Sorry it’s so late.”
“It’s okay. What’s wrong?”
“Nick. He…...I think he’s in love with another girl,”.
“What are they doing right now?”
“Cuddling as their watching TV,”.
“Oh…..I’m sorry.”.
“It’s not your fault,”. Tears were streaming down my face. I was practically crying a river. Drama queen.
“Jess? You there?” asked Katie.
“I wanna come home…...”.
