Jaden had been blowing my phone up all night, and I just ignored him. I did not want to speak to him. I hated him, and I don't think I would ever be able to forgive him for doing this to me. He promised me he would never cheat on me again, and here we are now. He lied to me. I felt betrayed. There was no way I would be able to face him anytime soon.

Parker and I were currently laying in his bed, and Parker was holding me close. I felt safe here. I looked up at Parker, "I could really get used to this."

He smiled and kissed my forehead, "Me too."

I smiled, and just as I was about to say something my phone started ringing, I sighed rolling over to grab my phone, and I noticed it was Jaden again. I looked at my phone then back at Parker, "Should I just answer it and tell him to leave me alone?"

He shrugged, "You might have to. It's your decision, you need to do what you want. If you want me to talk to him then I will, but it's whatever you want to do."

I ran a hand through my hair, and handed him the phone, "Can you talk to him?"

He nodded and took the phone, "Yeah of course."

He answered the phone and put it on speaker.

Jaden immediately started talking, "Oh my God Ellie thank God you finally answered. I thought you were dead. Please come home so we can talk. I'm so sorry about what happened but it's not what it looked like."

Parker looked at me and rubbed my thigh, then he spoke, "Jaden, look I know you want to talk to Ellie, but she just isn't ready to talk to you let alone see you. She's broken man. She just needs some space for awhile, so-"

Jaden cut him off, he started shouting, "Oh would you look who it is, Mr. Cowboy himself. You were just waiting for me to fuck up so you could have Ellie all to yourself. You don't know shit about what she fucking needs or wants. She's just using you as a distraction, so she doesn't have to think about me. She belongs with me not you."

Parker looked at me, and wiped my tears away that were rolling down my face. Jaden never acted like this. He was never hostile like this. What has gotten into him?

Parker spoke, "I do know that she wants you to give her some space for awhile. She thinks the two of you need a little time apart. As for what's going on between her and I, that's between us. She is doing what she wants, and I'm not making her do anything that she doesn't want to."

Jaden scoffed, "She will come running back soon. She's helpless without me. She doesn't know what to do without me. She needs me.  Anytime I fuck up, she goes running to some other dude. She is a whore."

My heart felt like it shattered all over again. I had never heard Jaden even talk like this to anyone. He was always a nice guy. He always talked so highly of me even when I wasn't around. I had not went running to anyone after he made out with Mads, but I started dating Quinton like a few months after it happened. That was a completely different than what Jaden said I did. I really thought Jaden loved me and cared about me, but I guess I was wrong. It felt like the room was spinning, as I tried to process Jaden's words. I couldn't believe he would say that about me.

I could tell Parker was getting mad, as he had tensed up. He was trying to hide it because he didn't want me to know that Jaden was getting to him. He snapped, "Listen here man, I tried to be nice, but you have been a total asshole. I don't know you personally or anything, but from what Ellie has told me about you, you sounded like a really nice, chill guy. She always spoke so highly of you, and anyone could tell she loved you more than anything. So don't ever speak about her like that again. She doesn't deserve it. She didn't do anything wrong."

Jaden was silent for a moment, "Whatever. I just hope she is ok, and that she is happy. Just tell her to come home please." Then he hung up.

Parker pulled me into a hug, holding me tight as I cried into his chest. Parker rubbed my back, " It's ok. Everything is going to be ok. I'm here for you, and I'm not going anywhere. Don't listen to him. He doesn't know what he is talking about. You are so incredibly amazing in every way possible, and he's stupid for not seeing that. He doesn't deserve you. You're going to get through this shit. I promise."

I looked up at him, "Thank you Parker. You really have no idea how much this means to me. About what Jaden said about me using you as a distraction,-"

Parker cut me off, "Don't worry about it. It's not a big deal. I don't think you're using me for anything at all. Besides we have to make it seem like we are dating when we are in public because of the whole deal."

I nodded, he was right, "Yeah you're right."

I let out a small yawn, and Parker pulled me back into him as we laid down. Parker kissed the top of my head, "Goodnight El."

I smiled, mumbling, "Goodnight Park." Then I drifted off to sleep.
