Only God Knows Why

Kaylie’s P.O.V.

I turned my head to look out my window. It seemed that it was too bright outside. So bright that I couldn’t look outside without my head hurting like hell. I had a headache too which sucked. I peered over the edge of my bed to find a half empty bottle of J.D. Of course, I had a hangover. I drank Jason off my mind like I do with everything else. I really need to find a new way to deal with my problems.

I was going to get up but then there was a knock at my door. “Come in.” I said quiet enough so that I didn’t hurt my head even worse. I watched my doorknob turn and then I was greeted by a surprisingly quiet Jimmy.

“Hey. I brought you some food. I didn’t think you’d be wanting to get up and get your own with your hangover so I got it for you.” He smiled as he spoke. His smile always made me happier.

“Cool. How did you know I have a hangover?” I said rubbing my head to try and get the pain to subside a little.

“I saw the bottle of Jack missing.” His smile diminished a little but not for long. It was back in less than three seconds.

“Oh, well that’s a good sign, huh?”

“Yeah, so I’ll leave the tray here, you come down stairs with it when you’re done.” He turned to leave the room setting down the tray on my legs.

“Okay, thanks buddy.” I gave him a little smile which made him smile even more.

“No problem, girly.” And with that he left my room.

He got me all my favorites for breakfast. On the tray there was toast with peanut butter, a piece of ham rolled up with a toothpick through it, and a glass of orange juice.

After I finished eating, I crawled out of bed and went to the bathroom. I brought the tray down to the kitchen and put it in the sink. Jimmy was sitting on the couch in the living room. I sat down next to him and put my head on his shoulder.

“What do you wanna do today?” I asked him with a slight groan.

He put his hand over my shoulders and said, “Well, we have a party tonight with all the guys and I wanted to go to the beach at some point just so I could get some fresh ocean air.” He said the last part with a little more enthusiasm than I expected.

“Okay, what’s the party gonna be like?”

“It’s not gonna be much. Some beer, some vodka, some J.D. Just the usual.” He kissed my forehead after and that made me happy.

“Okay,” I said, then giggled. “So, when do you want to go to the beach?”

“Uhm...Now?...Is that okay with you?”

“Yeah, sure. Just let me go upstairs and get my bikini and sunglasses and I’ll be ready.”

“Okay, I need to go get my shit on anyways.” He ran to his room laughing for no reason. I should be used to this by now but I’m still not.

I stumbled my way to my room and got my white bikini. I ran into the bathroom to get my high strength sunglasses so the sun wouldn’t make my hangover worse. I put on my bikini in the bathroom and then put on a plain white tanktop with some blue cutoffs over it. I walked back to the living room and Jimmy was waiting for me.

“Forget something?” He said pointing at my arm.

“Oh shit! I forgot the towel.” I laughed and he turned around.

“C’mon, hurry up!!” He was so impatient sometimes.

“Okay, I’m coming.” He was already out the door by the time I left our house.

I let Jimmy run down to the beach so I could lag behind a bit so I could have some peace and quiet for a little while. After a few minutes of walking I arrived on the beach. Jimmy was in the water amongst a shit ton of other people. He just came out from under the water. He ran a hand through his hair, slicking it back against his head. He waved at me as I rolled the towel out on the ground and laid on it. I wanted a tan. I was pretty milky white looking so any tan would be nice.

As I was laying on the beach, I found myself drifting off into my thoughts. It started with looking at the seagulls as they danced across the sky, flapping their wings just so they could stay up there and not fall down. Then I started thinking about the party later tonight. I wonder who followed me into my room. I remember them talking about needing to check on me but I don’t remember which one came to my room. I wonder if they’ll know I had a hangover. On the other hand, do I need to cook? You know what? Screw it, chips is what they get. After a while I realized it was getting late and I probably fell asleep. I looked up and Jimmy was in the ocean on a float. He must’ve ran home and brought one...Or he stole it, yeah he probably stole it.

“Jimmy! Get out of the water! We need to go now!” I shouted at him trying to get him to realize that it was almost noon and we needed to get ready for the party.

“C’mon Kaylie...Five more minutes?” He yelled back at me in a childish voice.

“Do you want food?” He would do anything for food.

“Coming!” ...I knew it.

I picked up my towel and gave it to Jimmy so he could dry off a little bit. We walked back home and I went to the bathroom and Jimmy started the car. I climbed in and he started driving to Wendy’s. It wasn’t my favorite place but it works.

We drove up to the speaker and the voice said, “Welcome to Wendy’s. We’ll be with you in a moment.”

“What do you want? I know what I’m getting.” Jimmy said joyously.

“I don’t know yet. You want to order first so I can have some time to decide?”

“Sure.”

“Okay. What do you want?” The voice came over the speaker.

“Yeah, uhm... Can we get a Baconator meal with a medium fry and a regular coke?” Jimmy ordered and then looked at me telling me to tell him what I was going to eat.

“I’ll have a baked potato and a chili.”

“Sour cream or butter for the potato?” The voice said. Apparently he had heard me when I really was talking to my brother.

“Sour cream please.”

“Do you want the crackers with the chili?”

“Yes, please.” I said.

“Okay, $15.97 at the first window.”

I slapped Jimmy on the chest and told him, “You were supposed to order for me. I feel embarrassed.”

He smirked and said, “How are you embarrassed? You ordered food like a big girl. Good job!” I giggled at his remark and we pulled up to the first window. Jimmy gave 20 bucks to the man at the window.

“Four dollars and three cents is your change, Sir. Please come again.” The man at the window said.

Jimmy got our food from the person at the second window. He started to drive out of the parking lot but he got his food out of the bag and started eating it. By the time we arrived at the house we ate both of our meals. I guess we were really hungry.

We got out of the car and I went into the house. As soon as I got in the house I went on my laptop and pulled Youtube up. I immediately put on my Kid Rock playlist. After I got music flowing through the house I started to make ham sandwiches for the guys. I knew they were coming over to drink and get wasted but feeding them wouldn’t hurt none. Jimmy left the house about five minutes later. He was going out to stock up on beer, vodka, and Jack Daniels.

I started to clean the house up a little. I am only going to clean the bathroom and the living room because if the guys were going to be coming over, the place was going to need some cleaning anyways. It only took about 10 minutes to clean up because me and Jimmy never made huge messes that we didn’t clean up ourselves (our bedrooms are different stories though).

Jimmy came back with everything we need and I grabbed a beer and threw Jimmy one. We sat down on the couch together and turned on the TV. We were watching Ridiculousness and laughing at the stupid people for about 20 minutes until we heard knocking at the door.

“Are you guys gonna let me in or am I just going to stay here for an hour or so!” It was Johnny.

“You’re gonna be standing out there until you die or go home if you don’t ask nicely, Short-shit!” I shouted at him from the couch. Jimmy stood up and let him in laughing at my remark.

Jimmy’s P.O.V.

Kaylie got up from her spot on the couch and went to hug Johnny. They hugged and then I went to get myself a beer and I was looking for one but then I heard Kaylie gasp in surprise. When I turned to see Johnny kissing her I asked her, “What the Hell happened!?” I knew I was too overprotective but I didn’t want to see Johnny sticking his tongue down my little sister’s throat.

She smiled and then told me, “He was going to kiss me on the cheek but then he turned my head so he kissed me on the lips!” She was laughing now but I continued to glare at Johnny.
I pointed at Johnny and said, “Back off.” Well, I told him to back off.

“Dude, chill out. She’s laughing, she’s cool with it.” Johnny had his smirk on and it was pissing me off a little bit.

“Yeah, I’m okay Jimmy. He doesn’t mean any harm. You need to back off.” When Kaylie said that I cocked my head to the right a little bit but then I calmed down a tinsy tiny bit. I turned around to go back to getting my beer but then I heard Kaylie scream.

“What the fuck are you doing to her?!” I asked him twitching slightly like I do when I get mad.

“He slapped my butt!...Jimmy, get him.” She smirked because she knew I was about to tackle Johnny to the ground. I wouldn’t hurt the little fella but I would wrestle him until he was out of breath.

I started screaming and then I ran a little bit, jumped, and knocked Johnny to the ground. Johnny asked me what the fuck I was doing and I told him I was beating his ass for smacking my little sister’s. I straddled Johnny and picked him up by his shirt. I was about to let him go when I heard the door open. I felt Johnny and I tense up and then I heard silence followed by Brian asking, “Is this a bad time?”

I got up staggering a little bit and then Johnny got up off the floor. We were both up in about three seconds each. “No.” We replied at the same time.

“...Okay...Well, I’m gonna get a beer and sit down over there..” Brian pointed at the island and did as his words had told us.

Me and Johnny sat down at the island and Zacky and Matt came in. I hugged Zacky first then I hugged Matt. They went to greet everyone else and I broke out the booze. I grabbed everyone beers and passed them out. Kaylie was the first one to get her beer and then she passed them along to the guys. Kaylie started talking to Matt about his car while everyone else was clinking their bottles together.

Brian’s P.O.V.

It was about 10 at night now and Johnny was clearly buzzed. He was shouting nonsense and he went around grabbing everyone shots of Jack. Within a few minutes and a few shots, everyone was blackout drunk except for me and Zacky. I knew that Zacky could get in the way of my plans with Kaylie so I tried to get out of the kitchen and to the living room where Kaylie was without anyone noticing.

I thought I got to the living room without anyone noticing so I went over to Kaylie and started playing with her hair. She was so beautiful and perfect for what I needed. She was putty in my hands, especially when she was drunk so I knew this wouldn’t be hard. So I grabbed her hand gently and put it about four inches away from my mouth. I then proceeded to ask her, “Do you want to go to your room with me?” After I finished my question I kissed her hand. I saw her blush even redder than the alcohol had made her. Kaylie responded with nothing other than a, “Yes.” I could clearly see the lust in her eyes.

I started to coax her to getting up and going to her room with me but I saw Zacky standing at the edge of the room. Poor guy cares too much about this bitch. I didn’t want to cause a huge confrontation with Zacky and myself but I needed Kaylie and I had a feeling Zacky wouldn’t let me have her.

“What do you think you’re doing?” Zacky asked me looking at Kaylie and then looking back at me.

“I’m going to give her what she clearly wants.” I said cocking an eyebrow with a sly smile on my face.

“You can’t do that.”

“Why not? She’s a woman, she can make her own decisions.” I said getting more and more pissed off at Zacky with every passing moment he was in my presence.

“She can’t when she’s drunk. You know she’s not herself when she gets this way.” Zacky had officially pissed me off. I balled up my fist and punched him in the face. I could tell he was hurt but I kept hitting him. He finally punched me in the face so I hit him once more sending him to the floor. I tried to leave Kaylie in the living room but she kept grabbing for me. I turned around and slapped her across the face and that was enough to knock her out. I passed the kitchen where the guys still were. I saw Jimmy look at me and I flipped him off as I headed out the door.

Zacky’s P.O.V.

I got up off the floor and I could feel that my nose was broken and I had a black eye. I went over to see Kaylie laying on the ground out cold. I could see a big red handprint on her face telling me that Brian had slapped her. That made me mad as hell.

I picked Kaylie up off the ground and started walking with her in my arms to her room. She started flinching and I knew she was waking up a little bit. Kaylie started telling me that she wanted to go to her room with Brian and I told her to go to sleep. She fussed a little more and then fell back asleep. I arrived in her room and put her on her bed.

I went to the bathroom to try and get the blood off of my face. I went back down to the kitchen and noticed Brian had left. Jimmy was looking at me and he asked me why I was leaving. I told him to go check on Kaylie and he acted confused. I blew him off and left so that I wouldn’t get into any more fights with anyone. I already have a black eye and a broken nose, I don’t need anything else worse to happen.

Jimmy’s P.O.V.

I didn’t quite know what Zacky had meant by, “Go check on Kaylie.” I went outside to ask him what was wrong. I’ve only seen him this mad when Brian ran over his dog with his car. “What’s wrong, Zack?” He turned to look at me. His face was all bloody and swollen. “Oh..shit. Did Brian do it?”

“Yeah, he hit Kaylie too. He left a handprint on her cheek.” Zack sounded angry and sad at the same time.

“Well, I don’t think it would be good if we did anything to hurt Brian so how about you just go home and I’ll take care of Kaylie. Hmm?” I didn’t want Zack getting upset too much.

“Fine.” He still sounded pissed but I knew he would do as I say.

I decided to go back in the house and tell everyone to go home. I knew they were all drunk so I called each of them a cab and paid the drivers for them. After everyone left my house I went up to see Kaylie. The mark that Brian had left on her was bruising but I put my hand on it said a prayer and it was gone within a few moments. She was still sleeping so I left her there. I went to my own bed and fell asleep thinking about Zacky.
