Creepy Whisper - A George Michael Fanfiction

-26-

My face thoroughly flushed red with embarrassment.

Jeena continued to stare at me with a blank expression.

And then she started to laugh. "You... what?"

"I..." I was hoping to hold myself together, but I couldn't. I started crying, and I didn't want to because I deserved to be yelled at. If Jeena saw me like this, then...

"Oh," she stood up and sat on the armrest of the chair, putting an arm around me. "Hey, don't cry. It's not entirely your fault..."

"It is, though!" I whipped my face. "He knew I didn't want that, but I kept telling him I did. It was stupid. Stupid stupid stupid..."

She sat on the floor before me since I assumed she was getting uncomfortable on the armrest. "But Jimmy didn't do anything to stop it. He very well could have fixed the situation and just let you cry it out. But since he likes you, it was probably harder to control himself..."

"Why aren't you yelling at me?!" I almost screamed. "I. Slept. With. Your. Brother. Last. Night!"

"I hear you, hun," she snapped her fingers twice by her ear. "So can the neighbors."

I couldn't get myself to breathe normally. All of my breathing was choppy. I thought I had gotten all of my feelings out last night.

She sighed. "I would yell at you, but what is that going to do? It's not going to undo what you did. It'll just make you feel worse. And especially with what you've been going through, I don't want to make your life any more miserable..."

I sniffed. "I appreciate that...,"

She somehow managed to smile, but I knew it was hard. "I am going to have a long talk with my brother..."

I watched as she put on her shoes and picked up her keys from the front door.

"Jeena?"

"Yes?"

I lifted my head. "This might sound weird, but... I know he's your brother and all, but try not to be too aggressive if that's what you have planned. I don't think he meant any harm."

She stood there for a few seconds with the door open, not making eye contact with me. And then she stepped outside and said "okay" before shutting the door.

I was left in a very uncomfortable silence.

Andy came back not long after being gone. I explained to him how Jeena went to her parent's house to do 'something.'

"What is that 'something'?" He asked, sitting on the couch next to me where I had moved.

I swallowed, and he knew something was wrong. "Hey... what the matter?"

That completely set me off.

"Not again." I choked out.

He comfortingly put his hand on my shoulder and rubbed it with his thumb in slow circles. He was a respectable distance away from me. "You can tell me. I won't judge-"

"I had sex with her brother last night when you guys left the house." I blurted. I didn't mean to, but I guess it was good not to anticipate him any longer.

He tried to keep his face straight, but his eyebrows went up. "Oh. Wow..."

"Yeah." I sniffed and started crying harder. "I was sad and confused. I didn't know how to handle the situation I was in at the time. And I guess, I still am. And somehow, sex was the first thing on my mind! How could I have done something like that?"
