Chapter 69: Mercy

Iman

It would be an understatement to say that I was bored. I wish I could rewind back to the part where Jazmine and I were watching our movie.

Speaking of Jazmine, I kind of kept my distance from her today. Mostly because of her friend. I was honestly trying to avoid trouble, not engage into one.

Every time I saw Victoria, I either exited the room or turned away. I was really trying to have no problems whatsoever. So far it was working.

I got up from my chair and started waddling to the door. We (justin, jaxon, Jazmine, Natalia) were sitting around a glass table next to the garden having drinks and having conversations. Victoria had just came back from discussing something with her Mother.

I was getting a headache and wasn't feeling too good and I just really wanted to lay my head down on a comfortable pillow.

Specifically Justin's pillows. Those were like, A1.

"Hey baby, where you going?" Justin asked following me out the door. He's probably wondering why I've been avoiding him. Which wasn't the case. He noticed how ud enter then re-enter a room "I'm feeling really tired, Justin."

"But you can't go yet.." He whined Pulling me closer and wrapping his arms around my waist. He Nuzzled his nose into the crook of my neck. "Um..yes I can."

"How about this. You can just lay your pretty little head on my chest, and I'll hold you. You know, how we usually do?" He asked.

"You're that desperate for me to stay, huh?" I asked chuckling. "Yes, I am." He said kissing my cheek.

"Okay then." I said and we came back to the group. I leaned in closer to Justin and he put his arm around me.

"So baby names..." Jaxon said bringing up the topic.

"No. We're not telling you." I said to him. "But why? If anyone at this table deserves to know anything about the babies, it should be me." Jaxon said back.

"You?" Justin snickered.

"Actually it should be me. I'm the one That will be babysitting them and stuff." Jazmine said all proud.

I looked up at Justin and he looked at me.

"Nope." Justin said.

"Oh why not? Everyone wants to know?" Victoria asked tilting her head to the side. I swear she gets prettier and prettier ever day.

I think its the eyelashes. That's gotta be it. Why can't my eyelashes be long like that??????!!

I mean my eyelashes are very dark so it gives a great contrast to my face, but I've always liked long eyelashes. Justin has long eyelashes..why do boys have longer eyelashes than girls?????

"Exactly. You've got everybody wondering. Like, are they boys, girls, or both?" Natalia laughed.

"Sorry but if I could tell you, I would. But Justin....says that it should stay a secret." I said rolling my eyes.

"Why should it stay a secret, Justin?" Victoria asked.

"Just because." Justin said back.

Victoria just quietly sipped her drink. Something's just off about her.....I mean not that I expect her to be obnoxious and rude right now, but......why isn't she being obnoxious and rude right now?

I smiled to myself. Maybe my little speech I gave her last time knocked a couple senses into her. Yup, thats what it is.

But the thing is, it was kind of hard to read her face. Not that I was looking at her or anything, but she just looked like she didn't care about what was going on. This was like the first time I've ever seen her laid back.
