• KATIE POV

Was I really about to tell him this story? I haven’t told anyone since I was seventeen and i'm twenty two now. I barely knew Jamie, what if he freaked out when i told him the story, would he still like me? Wait does he even like me? Alright here goes nothing.

“What's up” He breathed, he took hold of my hand that had IV’s going into

“This accident that happened” I breathed softly “My parents were out on a date for their 30th anniversary so i told them i would be their chauffeur for the evening. When i went to go pick them up at 12 they were drunk cracking up at jokes they told one another, I was cracking up too”

I could feel the tears falling I knew I had to continue “I have suffered from epilepsy since I was six, but if you go a year without a seizure you can finally drive but you still need to take your medicine. Of all the nights and places I could of had a seizure I had it while driving, I swerved onto the oncoming traffic, and a truck slammed right into the side of the car. My parents were too drunk and forget to put their seat belts on and they shot of the car” I couldn’t stop I wiped the tears that had already fallen and continued talking again “They-they were killed instantly, it was all my fault i killed my parents. I should've told them to put their seat belts on or to take a cab, or made an excuse saying i couldn’t get them. I-I-I killed my parents” I sobbed

Jamie let go of my hand and grabbed me pulling me into his lap “shhh its okay, its gonna be okay i promise” He reassured me as kissed my forehead
We didn’t speak for three hours, the only words that were said was me saying “I killed my parents” and him saying “its gonna be okay”. We just sat there, with his arms wrapped tightly around he kept kissing my forehead. I haven’t felt so loved for before, I knew Megan and Tyler and their family loved me but was this a different type of love? Was this even love?

“You’re too good for me” I chuckled

“You’re too perfect for me” He smiled, lifting my face up and planting a kiss on my lips “Are you okay?”

Wiping the left over tears stained on my face “Yeah, i’ll be okay. They’ll give me some stronger medicine”

“Thats not what I mean Babe” He addressed than realizing he just called me babe. Was this a pity thing?

I knew what he meant when he first asked but I thought i could avoid it, Jamie was hot and smart so he wouldn’t let me curve my way past this question. “Honestly I don’t know, I never thought I would tell that story to anyone. But here I am telling the guy i like yet barely know this story, I don’t want to get bad again because after the accident happened it took me two years to fully start my life again I had Megan and I still do, losing my parents doesn’t take weeks to comprehend it takes years and I’m scared Jamie. I’m scared” I could feel the tears fall out my eyes, I was able to hold them back thank god.

“This time you have me” he softly said “I know thats insane to say cause we barely know each other but i want to get to know you so much”

I leaned in and kissed him once more, his hands cupped my face while my arms wrapped around his neck playing with his hair. Feeling his smile through his kiss was the best feeling ever, kissing me made him happen hell it made me happy too. It made me want to sing Taylor Swift love songs at the top of my lungs in the shower. It made me want to go out and smell fucking roses, it made me want to kiss him harder.

“Come on lets get you out of here” He announced with a proud smile

“I can’t” I chuckled “I need to stay here for my appointment with the hospital doctor on Thursday, they said I can stay here because Megan is going back up to school tonight”

“You can uh ya know stay at my place for the week” He softly said fidgeting with his hands not making eye contact with me. “I have a guest room, I mean Tyler lives there too if thats a problem or anything”

“I’d love nothing more” I smiled
