章 19: Uncertain Promises.

"Jake's room?" Tobias asks me, stopping off at the top of the stairs.

"Can I bunk on your floor? I haven't spoken to Jake for hours and I don't want to be alone right now." I tell him. A heavy weight settles on my chest. Ivory's hurt face flashes through my mind, playing on a continue loop. I can't help but blame myself for upsetting the people who mean the world to me.

"You can stay in my room but you're not sleeping on the floor, take the bed." Tobias murmurs. We both shuffle towards the direction of the room and I breathe out a sigh of relief from having his support and company.

The last thing I want is to be alone right now.

"Thanks Tobias, you're a great friend," I tell him truthfully, feeling the back of my eyes prick with tears. I inhale deeply, forcing myself to stay strong, I can't remain an emotional unstable mess for the upcoming months. . . It isn't fair on the baby.
