JJ's POV
I reach over and see a name I never again thought I would see on my Lock Screen. I hesitate not knowing whether I should answer or not. This girl broke my heart into a million pieces. She cheated on me and humiliated me. But this all happened right after her brother died. He was my best friend too. We both were depressed, withdrawn, and drowning in our own pain so I can't entirely blame her. I still love her with all of my heart she just doesn't feel the same. I sigh and answer.
-What's up?
-JJ? I am really sorry to call you like this. Can you pick me up, please? I don't know who else to call.
I debate this. She was crying and clearly upset about something. Even if I didn't do this for her I would be doing it for John B. He would have never forgiven me if I left his baby sister crying alone. He wasn't here anymore but I might as well do my best to make him proud.
- Yeah of course. Where are you?
I ask grabbing the keys to my bike.
- Um Toppers.
I freeze. Why? Why? Was I really going to do this? Go pick up my ex who is with the guy she cheated on me with?!
-It's not what it seems like! Actually, it kinda is... It was surf day yesterday and he wasn't here this year to go with me. So I went to a party and drank a little and I went home with Topper and now I am locked in his bathroom throwing up."
She says sobbing. I sigh yesterday was really hard for me too. We all always go surfing day together. Me with my best friend and beautiful girl. I had none of that this year. My best friend dead and my beautiful girl was with someone else.
-I will be there in five. I am not doing this for you. I am doing this for him.
I say making that clear and hanging up before starting the drive down.
When I get off my bike Y/N runs toward me . She wraps her arms around my neck and legs around my stomach sobbing into my shoulder. "Woah hey you're ok," I say rubbing her back. "I am sorry. I am so sorry." I just wait for her to calm down not knowing what to say. This is the first time we have talked since the breakup. "Take a breath Y/N/N," I whisper ruffling her hair trying to calm her down. "I am so sorry." She whispers letting go of me. Her usually sparkling eyes were dull. Her hair was usually a mess but now it was practically in a dread. Her skin was pale and freckles hiding. She looked very sick. "Let's get you home," I say pushing the hair out of her face. She gets on the back of the bike and we ride down to the Chatou. She quickly hops off of the bike and throws up in the bushes. I wait and follow her inside. "I am going to shower. Would you mind um staying for a little?" I nod kinda awkwardly. As she showers, I look around. The place was trashed. There was trash and clothes everywhere. The fridge was completely empty and all the pictures were shattered on the floor. I walk down to John Bs room just to take a look and notice her blanket on his bed. I sigh. We all missed him. "It makes me feel closer to him." She whispers from behind me. "Yeah, I miss the hell out of him too," I whisper tears pricking my eyes. "So how are you feeling?" I say wiping my face and turning around. "A lot better. Thank you so much, J." I nod. "Of course. We may not be together anymore but we are family. Besides your brother would come back and haunt the shit out of me if I left his baby sister crying in a kooks bathroom hacking her guts up." She chuckles and hugs me.
