I open my eyes slowly, as the room is spinning I see people crowded around me but it's a blur. I hear muffled voices as they tap me and talk to me. I can see a bit more clearly now my head is throbbing and I feel hot. I slowly pull my head to rest it up on the arm of the sofa "what's going on?" I asked confused I reach up to my head as it is killing me. "you fell and tripped over, you banged your head" I recognise the voice "Missy?" I ask. The group of people are still crowded over me as someone cuts through them with a cold damp cloth, they place it on my head "how did I fall?" I ask sitting up slightly and wincing at the pain of my head "I don't know, you were with Jordan outside" Missy says as she rubs my shoulder. I remember what happened, I wonder If it did.
A few hours later, I am sitting on the sofa next to Jordan, everyone seems to have left apart from Missy, Nas and a couple of other people. I have sobered up now but my head still hurts. "I can take you home" he says looking up to me "okay, let's go" I say and slowly standing up as he helps me I say bye to Missy and Nas and follow Jordan out of the door.
"we didn't say anything before I fell, did we?" I ask him "no, you just ran out" he stops talking but he looks like he wants to continue. So it wasn't real, he didn't say he loved me? he looks at me "you kissed Riz, right before you ran out" he looks down. Shit I thought I imagined it too "sorry Jordan, I didn't mean it" I say "Na it's fine, it's not like we are dating or anything" he says. I am taken back by this "yeah of course" we keep walking as we get up to my house "bye, thank you" I say to him "bye Izzy" he says as he walks away.
I get in through the door and take my shoes off, I look up at the clock and it says 12:00pm. My dad isn't down here so I am assuming he is asleep, I creep upstairs and go into my room. I brush my hair and look in the mirror there is a cut on my forehead it's not that deep but I still have a headache I tie my hair up into a messy bun and get into some Joggers and an oversized t-shirt. I sit on my bed and think how Jordan said what he said, I feel like I have been rushed through the night so many things happened all at once. I fall back and try to get to sleep, my mind is still buzzing I feel so awake so I decide to go on a walk. I go downstairs and put a coat on whilst walking out the door.
the air is cold but refreshing, the grass is wet as I am walking on it. In the distance I see a car pulled up next to a figure they seem to be talking, so I stop walking and hide behind a wall so I can hear closer and not be seen. "so where's the money?" A man asks whilst rap is blaring out the car "you know what happened, I don't have it I will give it to you next time" someone says, I recognise the voice It's Jordan. They talk some more after a while the car drives off and I walk out from behind the wall "what are you doing?" I ask walking up to him, I can see it's him because there is a streetlight shining above his head "Isabelle?" he asks, he looks behind him and walks up to me "are you okay?" I ask worried he doesn't reply I pull him into a hug "Jordan, you know this is bad I don't understand why you keep doing it" I say pulling away "we don't have any money" he replies "this is dangerous, Jordan" I say and sit down on the grass he joins me "come to mine tomorrow" he says looking at me, "what?" I say confused "you don't have to, I'm not forcing you" he says, I laugh "what time?" I reply.
I am walking up to my house, I check my phone as I am walking through the door it's an hour later, I open the door slowly and creep into my room once again. I rest my head back on my pillow and I fall asleep almost straight way.
I wake up with a headache and I remember Jordan wanting me to come to his house, he said at 4 so not for a long time. I roll over and check my phone it's 11 in the morning, I watch YouTube videos until I decide it's time for me to get up. I make my bed and take a shower, the hot water feels nice as it wakes me up. I walk downstairs for breakfast I see my dad on the sofa "morning, you weren't back till late" he says sipping his coffee "yeah" I reply whilst closing the fridge and walk over to him with a bowl of cereal "Oh my god Izzy, what's happened to your face?" I sit down next to him and reply "I fell over last night, I am fine now" he asks me all sorts of questions, once my interrogation was over I walk upstairs and get ready.
It's 3:55 as I am walking downstairs I shout up to my dad "bye dad, I am going out I don't know what time I will be back" I say this whilst putting my coat on, he shouts back "okay, have fun bye" and with that I walk out the door.
I feel nervous whilst walking up to Jordan's house, by the way he describes his dad I am not looking forward to meeting him. I am walking up to the door and wait a moment I take a breath and knock...
