"We are besties after all." - Jordan

Jordan's POV

"What did you need to ask me?" I asked and he sighed nervously, I could already tell it wasn't going to be good. "Well, it's just a favor." He started. "I know that you're dating Parker and I respect that but you're one of my best friends so I don't find it weird to ask but can I stay over at yours for a few days? He asked, what the fudge cake.

I found it weird but at the same time he is one of my besties so I didn't mind. "Sure, why?" I asked, I probably wasn't going to be at the house most the time because I'll be with Parker at the hospital. "Because, I don't want to see Asher coming in the house with Josh's dead body." He joked, well I think it was a joke.

When I made it back to my house, Isa was still with me. I don't know what he was thinking because he doesn't have any of his stuff. I opened the front door and called for my parents. "Mum! Dad! I'm home and Isa's with me!" I called and Isa shouted hi to them. "Don't cheat on your boyfriend!" My dad shouted through to me and I fake laughed.

I went into my room and flopped onto my bed and screamed. "What's wrong?" Isa shook me and I screamed again. "Life!" I cried, I don't actually know but I think it was just the whole Parker situation. Everything's been building up all day and I'm just so worried. "How?" Isa sat on my bed beside me and started shaking me again. "Parker!" I cried again and Isa chuckled. "Don't worry about him." He said, I gave him a death stare. "I didn't mean it like that." He put his hands up. "Well what did you mean?" I questioned.

(I= Isa, J= Jordan)

I: I meant, that if you worry about him then your going to get stressed that will make you overthink even more than you already do which will make you think negative things which will make negative things happen.
J: Someone already said that to me but I forgot who.
I: Well, they were right.
J: I just, I hate it!
I: Remember when your small friend was in hospital?
J: Yeah?
I: And remember when you left to go see if he was okay?
J: Mhm.
I: Remember that night in the hotel.
J: Yeah.
I: And what I told you?
J: Vaguely.
I: I'll give you a reminder.

**FLASHBACK TO WHEN JORDAN WAS STILL IN L.A.**
(STILL JORDAN'S POV)

Me and Isa checked into the hotel. We were in the elevator and I was still really upset about what happened with Asher. "Hey. Forget about Asher." Isa hit my arm and I laughed a little. "It's hard." I said and he hugged me, this is awkward. "Seriously, Asher's stubborn, he'll get over it eventually." He reassured me, I don't know if it was true.

I told Isa that I would forget about it but really I wasn't going to. When we opened the door, we expected it to be a twin room, like what we asked but instead there was only one bed! "Uhh." I said and froze at the doorway.

Isa ran into the room and threw himself on the bed. "Mine." He said, I ran over and started shaking him. "Noooo!" I whined and he started laughing at me. "All mine." He smiled at me and I pouted at him. "No!" I tried dragging him out but he just grabbed onto the head board. "You're mean." I said and he chuckled. "You can talk." He joked and I hit him with a pillow, which turned into a pillow fight.

It was fun but it had to be stopped when we started fighting over one of the pillows and Isa ripped it open. "Oops." He said and picked up the feathers which were on the floor before throwing them at me. "Hey!" I said and picked them back up then threw them at him.

He went back on the bed so I just got beside him. "Get out." He closed his eyes and I laughed. "No you." I pushed him and he done it back. I actually got my mind taken off Asher, and I think it was because of Isa? He made me happy and I don't know why.

Obviously, me and Isa would have to work something out because we can't sleep together. He has a girlfriend who would probably kill me if she found out, literally.

I wasn't sleeping on the floor but I know that he wouldn't give up.

I didn't even notice because I was zoned out but somehow we were laying right beside each other, staring in each others eyes and holding hands!

I rolled on top of him and layed against his chest while he started stroking my hair. It made me feel weird but, safe? It was a strange feeling but he's definitely better than his brother. At this point, I think that he forgot about Rose just how I forgot about Asher. I could also tell that he enjoyed this just as much as me.

Somehow I started thinking about Chris again, just overthinking everything about it! What if the surgery goes wrong? He could be dead in the next few hours! I could never see him again! He could die and I won't make it back in time!

Me overthinking made me move around and I knew Isa noticed. "Stop thinking about Chris." He said softly, how did he know? "How did you know I was thinking about him?" I looked up at him and he gave me a strange look. "It's obvious." He pushed my head back down onto his chest and I sighed. I was worried! "Look, don't think about the negative, think about the positive so positive things can happen." He started and I looked back at him again.

"If you worry about him then your going to get stressed that will make you overthink even more than you already do which will make you think negative things which will make negative things happen." He continued, I think he was right. I've heard that stuff before. If you think negative then negative stuff will happen.

He pushed my head down again. "I think I'll try to start thinking positive." I said and I looked at Isa again and he smiled. "No, you will start thinking positive." He said and I nodded. "I will start thinking positive." I said and his smile grew bigger. "Good girl." He cooed jokingly and I laughed.

"Now put your head back down!" He pushed it down for the third time. "Okay, sorry." I joked and I could tell he was shaking his head. "Good night." He whispered to me. "Night." I said back.

I quickly fell asleep, he made me feel calm and relaxed. What am I saying? I would never date him, I would never like him, but I wouldn't mind doing this again.

**PRESENT DAY**

"So it was you who told me?" I asked and he nodded. "But seriously, don't over think it. Take my advice. It worked with your other small friend it'll work with Porter or whatever his name is." He said and I laughed. "Parker." I corrected him. "Yeah." He said.

I got up and hugged him. "Thank you! I love you!" I cried and he laughed. "Your welcome, I love you two." He said.

I started thinking positive about him. I wasn't going to see Parker tonight because the boy gang said that they just wanted alone time with him so I was stuck with Isa. I didn't mind though, we are besties after all.
