Getting Older- Jiara

Confrontation

John b pov

I can't stop thinking about what jj just told me, she's was finally back and I don't know whether or not to feel relived or to be angry at her right now. God how could she just leave us like that, like did she even care about us at all. I can't even sleep right now knowing that she's back in outer banks and I'm not able to do anything about it.

God what am I going to tell Sarah, I say to myself. I know that kie leaving was really the hard for her and jj. It was hard for jj with him being kie's boyfriend or whatever they liked to label themselves, and by kie being Sarah's first real friend.

Knowing that I'm not going to get some sleep I sit up and rub my hands on my face, god what am I going to do.

Should I go and confront her about this, I think to
myself. I know that it's late but I can't help it. She hurt everyone and now she thinks she can just come back and just get away with everything she's done. After all the pain she cost us, I can't just not do anything and I can't just let her be.

Looking at the time and seeing how late it is I know kie could either be sleep or she could also be wide awake. Not caring whether or not she could be sleep, I did the most rational thing I could do right now. Which is going to kie parent house and confronting her, she can't just show up and think she can just get off, not on my watch.

I got out of bed and put my shoes and threw a jacket on. I know I had to make sure that I made no sounds just in case jj was sleep, but also knowing that he was drunk. JJ was most likely past out on the couch right now, but I still I didn't want to make much noise just in case jj tries to talks me out of it. He may hate kie right but he'll always love her and he'll always come to her defense.

I managed to slip pass jj and quietly made it to the Twinkie. I'm not going to lie, now that I'm the car I'm starting to have second thoughts about this whole plan. I know I shouldn't be doing this but I have to think about them and the pain that she inflicted on them.

I finally decided that this was the right call to make. I backed out of the driveway and started driving to the house that I oh so remember.

Kie pov

I couldn't sleep no matter how hard I tried I just couldn't sleep. I've been tossing and turning all morning trying to find a good angle that would help me sleep but I got nothing. So here I am at 2:00am staring up at the ceiling in the dark not getting one ounce of rest.

Knowing that I wasn't going to magically fall asleep anytime soon, I got up and walked to the kitchen to poured me a glass of water. I just can't get what happened today out my mind seeing jj again brought up so many memories that I tried so hard to keep so far down but still managed to find it's way at the front and center of my memories.

I signed as I thought about that, knowing that I could never erase jj from my mind no matter how I try. As I bring the now full glass of water to my lips I hear a faint knocking at the door, it was so faint that I almost thought that I was hearing things. If it wasn't for the second knock on the door I thought I would've been going crazy.

As I put the now half way empty glass of water in the sink, I speed walk to the door to see who would be knowing at the door this late at night. As soon as I opened the door I didn't have much time to prepare myself, before I got to see a glimpse of an angry John b barge right through the door.

At first he didn't say anything, he just stood that was an angry look on his face that just started right into my soul. I didn't know what to say, John b was always the leveled one in our group. Whenever we fussed be made sure that nothing had got out hand and whenever pope and jj would fight he always made sure to break it up.

So now having him look at me like he wanted to kill me on the spot made my heart stop. It wasn't too long before he started to get on my case, yelling at me so angrily that I had nothing to say.

" WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE HUH" John b says as he yells at me. " SERIOUSLY KIARA WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!" "DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA OF THE PAIN YOU'VE COST HUH , THE PEOPLE WHO LIVES YOU HAVE RUINED" he says pointing at me.

"NO YOU DON'T BECAUSE YOU LEFT, YOU LEFT AND LEFT US ALL BEHIND." "YOU LEFT US WHEN WE ALL NEEDED YOU THE MOST, BUT YOU DON'T CARE BECAUSE ITS NOT ABOUT YOU" John b says tears run down his face.

"IF IT'S NOT ABOUT KIARA THEN FORGET ABOUT EVERYONE ELSE HUH" "WELL I GOT NEWS FOR YOU KIARA, YOUR LIFE, YOUR NAME DOESN'T MATTER HERE! NOT ANYMORE SO WHY DON'T YOU DO US ALL A FAVOR AND JUST LEAVE AGAIN BECAUSE NO ONE NEEDS YOU AND NO ONE SURE WOULD MISS YOU" he says while waking towards the door.

"Oh and before you think about it, don't call, don't text, and don't show your face around the cantue because you're no longer welcomed there. I really hope that leaving was really worth it because now you're really alone. And there is no forgiveness this time, no making up we're not friends anymore and we'll never be again" he says one final time as he walk out the door slamming it behind him.

I couldn't move, I couldn't do anything but cry and hold myself. I know that leaving so suddenly was wrong but I never imagined that it would come to this, never thought that I would actually have to face the day where I no longer have the people I once called my family by my side.

He's right, I am alone and I have no one but myself to blame.
