Working With The Rockstar - JH

Chapter 75

Jaden pov

After years of being my closest friend, it hurt me to know that Skylar was willing to throw it all away so easily. Out of all of them, she had been the one I was closest with. Besides Winnie. I don't know what had come over Sky or why she was doing what she was, but I didn't want anything to do with it all. I don't need her ruining Liza's mental state because of whatever fucking issues she has going on.

When we had got in, Liza had gone straight up to my room. She claimed to have just been tired, but I could see it in her eyes she was physically exhausted, and the running negative thoughts was beginning to exhaust her mentally. I quickly made it known to my parents that we had come back, grabbing two waters and a couple bags of the chocolate I had bought.

I walked in the room to see Liza laying on the bed. She had her face and chest pushed into the mattress but her hips were pointed to the side and her legs were curled up. She had also taken her top off but left her bra on.

"You okay?" I asked as I crawled up on the bed behind her and started to massage her hips.

"Yeah, I'm okay." She sighed.

She's lying. I can see all the tension forming in her muscles. Her shoulders are tense and her back is tight as can be. Her breathing is also slow and shallow, but not the kind you use when you're relaxed. This was the kind of shallow breathing people use when they feel mentally weighed down.

"You should get in the bath baby. It'll relax you a little bit." I suggested, planting a kiss on her shoulder, her skin hot to the touch.

"I can't." She mumbled into the pillow.

"Why not?" I asked as I slid next to her so I can actually see her.

"Because I'll get blood on it." Oh for fuck sake.

"Liza, it's blood. It can be washed off with the shower head after, I really don't care. It's gonna make you feel better at the end of the day." I explained, pulling her to stand up and walk into the bathroom.

"I got your clothes." I stated, walking in and placing the clothes on the counter.

"Thank you." She breathed out as she sat up in the water.

"You've still got bubbles in your hair baby." I laughed as a part of her hair was still coated in bubbles from where she had been laying in the water.

I picked up the shower head and turned it on, holding it over her head and rinsing her hair of the bubbles. I ran my fingers through her hair, making sure it was all smooth before turning the water off.

"Jaden?" I heard a voice call out.

"I'll leave you to get dressed while I go sort out who ever the fuck that is." I explained as she nodded. I left a kiss on her head and pulled the door to as I left the bathroom. "Oh, hi mom." I smiled a so saw her in my room.

"Hey baby, what are you both doing in there?" She asked with an accusing glare. Seriously? Nearly twenty years old and I'm still getting grilled about my sex life.

"Liza had a bath and I was washing the rest of her hair." I answered.

"Well I don't want you having-"

"-having sex in your house, yeah I know. Is there something you wanted mom?" I cut her off.

"Yes. I know you guys are going home tomorrow but I wanted to know if you guys wanted to go out to the lakes. Nicole wants to take Luke rock skimming and I know you enjoy going to the lakes. We can go early because your flight isn't until four o'clock right?" She explained.

"Uh, I'll see how I feel in the morning. We probably will come down for a little bit, but I've gotta keep an eye on the time. If we miss this flight we're gonna be stuck here until next Thursday." I answered.

"Oh god, being stuck with your family is such a burden isn't it." She laughed sarcastically.

"You know what I mean. We need to go home for work and stuff." I corrected, making her nod.

"I know what you meant baby." She said as she left.

I started walking around my room, shutting the curtains and setting up Netflix on the tv so we could just watch some random shit. I took off my jacket and shirt, dumping both in a random corner before taking the bottles off the bed and putting them on the side.

"Jaden?" Liza called out.

"Yeah?" I called back.

"Can you pass me a tampon please?" How did I fucking forget?

"Of course, what colour?" I asked.

"A yellow one please." She answered.

I grabbed out the tampon she had asked for and took it to her. I opened the door and placed it on the counter for her as she was drying her hair.

"Here."

"Thanks."

I walked back out and sat down on the bed, pushing the covers down to the foot of it. I picked up my phone and started replying to a message from Landon while I waited for Liza to be finished.

"Hey baby." I smiled as she walked out of the bathroom.

She was wearing my sweats and my hoodie. They were hanging off of her and it looked like she was drowning in my clothes. She's so fucking cute.

"Hi." Her voice sounded exhausted as she climbed up into the bed next to me.

She crawled up on the bed and laid next to me, waiting for me to put my phone down, or move my arm, so she could curl up into my chest. I chuckled as she slowly started to whine, realising I was purposely not moving my arm.

"You're so mean." She pouted, forcing her head between my arms so she was cuddling up to my chest.

"I'm sorry angel." I apologised, kissing her head. "I have a peace offering." I tried as I grabbed the bag of chocolates and placed it between us.

"Hm, I might forgive you." She squinted at me as she took a chocolate and brought it to her lips. "Okay, you're forgiven." She nodded making me laugh.

"You're so adorable." I shook my head as I kissed her lips.
