Two-sided

Chapter 41: upset friends and unoffical cheating

Danny pulled up in the parking lot and turned off the car. We sat there in silence.

"Thanks, Danny. I'll talk to you later." I said opening the door. "wait." he grabbed my hand. "You still owe me a dinner." I smiled and kissed his cheek. "I'll check my schedule." he smiled and I left. Once I reached the top of the stairs I looked back and saw him still there.

He waved and I smiled. I waved back and he left. I knocked on the door and waited a moment.

When the door opened I was rushed by everyone. "You're home!" Kian said. Ryan was leaning against the doorway.

Everyone let go and I stared at him. "I can't believe you." he went inside. I looked at everyone. Ally pulled me aside and said "He's upset you stayed with Danny, after Danny had done so many things to him in high school..." I face palmed.

"I gotta talk to him..." I said. "whoa wait. You've been gone for a while. I think it's best if you relax and take it easy." Ally said. She led me inside.

"Look I'm about to be late to meeting, but when I get back you and I are gonna hang okay." I nodded with a small smile. She grabbed her keys and left.

I looked to Kian and Andrea. "We gotta go too, I gotta film and kian is having a meeting with James about videos..." Andrea said grabbing her purse. "we'll talk later okay?" She hugged me and kian did too.

"Sorry kid..." kian whispered. They left and I felt emptier. I looked to Jc. My vision became blurry. Tears were traveling through. Jc grabbed me into his chest. "Are you gonna leave me too?" I said into his chest.

"We aren't leaving you baby." I held on tighter to him. My fingers curled into his back.

He grabbed me up and took me to my room. I cried for another 20 minutes. "What happened at Danny's?" He asked. "I... had the most awful dream... it felt so real..." I said.

"What was the dream?" He asked. "I was kidnapped by him Terry and Vanessa... I was held there... I tried to escape but then he locked me up in his basement... I was whipped awfully bad and Terry and Vanessa took me to the hospital... I almost died..." I could hear the heart monitor ringing in my ears.

I felt Jc squeeze me tighter. I looked up at his face and saw a tear. "I'm sorry baby..." I heard a knock at the door. "Come in." I announced.

Ryan opened the door. "I need to talk to you alone..." He said. "Jc do you mind?" I asked. "No it's fine. I'll be in the kitchen." He kissed my forehead and glared at Ryan.

When he came to the door he rammed his shoulder into Ryan's arms. Jc mumbled something but I couldn't understand it. Ryan slammed the door and took a deep breath.

He came and sat down on the bed. We were quiet for a while. "if this is about me staying over at Danny's--" Ryan shook his head. "it isn't about Danny."

"Jc was at the restaurant with Ally a few nights ago." I looked at him. "what? No, Ally wouldn't." I laughed. He kept a straight face my laughter faded.

"Ally and him were in the guest room for a while, they didn't come out until midnight." Ryan stated. "Why?" My heart felt like it was breaking.

"Jc was angry you were with another guy... Ally was a bit drunk and so was he." I shook my head. "That doesn't mean they did it." I said.

"No it doesn't but I'm pretty sure they did something, deep conversation, funny jokes, reminiscing about their childhoods. Something made them close cause they've been acting different around each other." I held my stomach.

"I thought it'd be better for me to tell you than for you to find out by you seeing them making out or something." Ryan put a hand on my knee. "I'm sorry..." I bit my lip. "I... I just need to sleep..." a tear slipped.

Ryan hugged me. "Please stay here..." I said "I won't leave your side baby girl..." he mumbled.

I laid down and Ryan put a blanket over me. "You're shaking..." he said. "I know... I'm just really happy to be home is all..." I partly smiled.

He rubbed my arm and I drifted to sleep. A few hours later I heard a muffled yelling. I rubbed my eyes and stumbled to the door. I turned around and saw Ryan wasn't in my bed.

I slowly opened the door. It was partly cracked. I saw Ryan in the hallway. "I just can't believe you sometimes!" He yelled.

"Well I'm sorry I got a bit tipsy Ryan!" Jc yelled. "Tipsy? Tipsy! You were wasted! I told her you a little drunk! A little drunk Jc!" Ryan yelled.

"What in the world?" I whispered to myself. "Well I didn't ask you to do that!" Jc yelled. "You didn't need to ask! I was trying to be your friend! But that's the most awful thing I've had to tell her! I had to lie to her face because I was hoping you'd make the right choice!" Ryan was breathing heavily.

"How would you think I wasn't go to?" Jc yelled "Are you fucking serious?! I just heard you on the phone! 'Ya, she's asleep. I think we could sneak out tonight'" Ryan said.

Jc didn't talk. I leaned into the door hoping he say something justifiable. Then the door made me lose my balance and I fell into the hallway.

"Nally!" They both said. "Baby are you okay?" Jc asked Ryan pushed him back when he tried to come closer "Stay away from her!" He yelled.

"Ya." They both turned to me. "Why don't you run off with my best friend and leave me alone." Jc was breathing heavily and he looked worried.

"Tell me, when did this shit start?" I crossed me arms.
