This is chapter three. I do not own anything related to The Host, and any spelling and grammar faults are my own. Hope you enjoy! And reviews make me smile and they keep me motivated!
After leaving Jamie with Darcy, I walk over to my room. Wanda was awake. Sitting there and talking with Melanie. I smiled and kissed Wanda's lips softly. "Where is Jared?" I asked. Melanie pointed at the door. "In the kitchen. Talking to Jeb, Jack and Kyle." I smiled. "Thanks," I said before walking out.
"I don't know where she is! She was in our room yesterday," I heard Jack say. I walked into the kitchen and saw them sitting around a table. Jack was worried. "I know where she is," I said. Jack and Jared looked at me at the same time. "Where is she then?" Jeb said. I turned around and started walking. "I'll show you." They followed me. I pulled a pink blanket aside and showed them the room inside. Jamie slept with Darcy by his side. He still had his arm around her and she rested her head on his chest. Jared touched his shoulder and he opened his eyes slowly. "Jared… what's up?" he whispered. Jared pointed at the hallway and started walking. Everybody followed him.
"I need to talk to you," Jared said. Jamie raised an eyebrow. "Why?" Jared sighed. "Because I need to... Are you serious about Darcy?" He asked. Jamie laughed. "Okay. I know what way this is going. We are just friend okay?" he said. "I just need to be sure. Melanie wants me to tell you some stuff…" Jamie started walking away. "I don't want to have that conversation with you Jared. I'm fifteen!" he said. Jared grabbed his arm and stopped him. "Don't walk away from me when I talk to you!" he said. He was angry. I felt dumb standing here and listen to them. Jamie turned around, slowly. His face was red and he was really angry. "I don't need you to talk to me Jared. I am not going to sleep with here so you don't have to worry about that. I have known her for a day and you are jumping to conclusions the second I have my arms around here! You are sleeping with Mel, Ian is sleeping with Wanda and Kyle is sleeping with Sunny that does not mean I am sleeping with Darcy. If I get in a serious relationship with her, you can talk to me," He said before he walked away. Jared looked after him. He was moaping. "The kid is a young man Jared," Jeb said, petting his shoulder. Jared sighed as he nodded. "I think I need to deal with that later. I don't want to make him even more upset," Jared said before leaving.
I was thinking about what Jamie said. About me sleeping with Wanda… The truth was that it was not true. I slept in the same bed as her, but I was not sleeping with her. It almost happened once, but I stopped it. Why the hell did I stop it? Ah… that's right. Birth control was the last thing this place had. A child in this world would be tragic. I also knew that Kyle didn't sleep with Sunny. She was still a little overwhelmed by it all. And I know Kyle. He would never use her that way. What if one of them got pregnant? Jeb would kill us. Or Doc. Or maybe both. I know we can't control if it happens or not. That's why I don't want to do that with her yet. Maybe I could take her out alone some time. There is no way I am doing it in the caves. That's just awkward.
I heard a noise over my head. It was a helicopter. I did not move at all until the sound was gone. Wanda came around the corner and hugged me. "I hate those helicopters!" she said. I kissed her forehead. "I know. I know…" I whispered and hugged her tighter. I let her go and sat down on the floor, leaning my back against the wall. She sat down beside me. "How long have you been here?" she asked. I looked at her and smiled. "Before you and Melanie came?" She nodded. I frowned. "I don't know. Every day down here was the same until you showed up," I said. She giggled. "I make you remember days?" she asked. I loved the blush in her cheeks. "Yes you do. Crazy, right? I have been crazy for you all this time!" I said and kissed her. She giggled again. "That's good. I am crazy about you too Ian O'shea." I kissed those soft lips and continued kissing her down the neck. "Are you sure this is a good idea?" Wanda asked. I kissed her lips again. "I know it isn't. That's why it won't go any further. Not yet," I said and leaned back. She frowned. "Not yet?" she asked. A tiny laughter came from my throat and I dragged her to me. "Not yet or not ever. What do you prefer?" I whispered. She kissed my neck and moaned. "I guess I prefer 'not yet'" she said. I grinned. "Me to."
I met Jamie in the kitchen the next day. He sat by himself and barely touched his soup. I touched his shoulder when I sat down beside him. "What's up Jamie?" I asked. He didn't look up. "Nothing, except Jared, trying to ruin my life," he said. I laughed. "Why is that? I don't think he wants to ruin your life. I think he actually cares about you." Jamie looked at me. "He hides it well if that is the case," he said. I smiled and threw a glass of wather in his face. He looked at me and gasped. "What the hell was that for?!" he screamed. I was laughing so hard that it hurt. "You smell bad," I said before starting laughing again. He walked towards the bathroom. "Then I will take a bath. Now, stop laughing O'shea!" he said. But he couldn't help it. He was laughing his ass off when he walked out.
"O'shea one and O'shea two! I need to talk to you!" I heard Jared yell. I looked at Kyle across the room and we reached Jared at the same time. "What's up?" Kyle said. Jared pointed at the hall and we followed him out. He looked confused and a little scared. "It wasn't supposed to happen, but it sort of did. And I have no idea what I am doing or how I am going to handle it. I am just so confused and stressed and…" he said. He was stress walking in circles and squares. "Jared, can you please stand still and tell us what's going on? You are making us stressed," I said and grabbed his arm. He stopped and looked at us. "Melanie is pregnant…" he said. I stood there with my mouth open. Just staring at him like an idiot. "Excuse me. She is what?!" Kyle said. Jared swallowed. "She is pregnant."
I know that this chapter is a little short, but I promise the next one will be longer. Hope you enjoy my story :)
