September 22

Sore.

That's now Brielle felt when she saw up the next morning. The sunlight from the window heat up her body making her groan some and slowly open her eyes. Her legs were tangled with Killian's as he laid on his back, snoring lightly.

Brielle's head was on his chest and pretty much half of her body was on top of him although he didn't seem to mind. She lifted her head and let out a tired yawn as she looked around the room.

She sat up, only to wince at the aching feeling in her thighs and lower front. She groaned and sighed before looking down at the sleeping Killian. The sheets were tangled against them while the comforter was laying on the floor.

She snuggled back against Killian once more, not wanting to get up and start her day just yet. So she closed her eyes and allowed herself to go back to sleep.

Her sleep only lasted twenty minutes before a cellphone rang, interrupting it. She heard a groan sound under her before some movement as Killian shifted to reach for the ringing phone.

It was hers.

He passed it to her and she sighed, feeling it was her mother calling her. "Hello?" She answered the call and pressed the phone to her ear while her other ear was pressed against Killian's chest.

"Brielle!"

"You okay mom?" Brielle asked, still half asleep.

"I'm fine honey. I need you come here and watch your sister and brothers. Your father is out of town visiting your grandmother and I need to go on a business trip for a week and their babysitter isn't responding."

Brielle groaned and closed her eyes. She felt a hand rubbing her back softly making her smile gently. "Mom I can't. I have clas—CLASS" Brielle sat up quickly as she screamed and looked at her phone to see the date only to sigh in relief. "Never mind today is my free day" She said in relief as she smiled.

"Oh thank god" she said.

"Are you done?" Her mother's voice rang through the phone. "I don't appreciate listening to you kill my eardrum with your shouting"

"Sorry mama but I can't come and stay with them for a week. I have work tomorrow and—"

"Brielle Mae Olivia Reed" her mother interrupted her in a stern voice making Brielle groan lowly. "If I had anyone else I would have asked them. Now your siblings aren't responsible enough to be by themselves yet so Brielle I'm asking you nicely to please get your sorry tail in this house in less than five hours or so help me God I will—"

"Okay" Brielle cut her mother's threatening voice off and nodded her head. "I'm on my way" She told her mother.

"Ah see that wasn't so hard." She rolled her eyes in response while her mother said good bye and hanged up the phone.

"Everything alright?" Brielle jumped at the sudden deep voice and looked over to see Killian looking over at her with his arm behind his head.

"Yeah I just need to go" She sighed and stood up from the bed, wincing at the sudden ache in her legs. Killian sat up as well and grabbed her hand, pulling her toward him.
