Siblings with Benefits

Chapter Six

I wake up to text from Jasmine, my cousin. Its a picture message. I type in my password. 0-2-0-5, me and Jonah's anniversary. I cannot believe this...its a picture of Jonah kissing Monica in the food court in the mall. I immediately burst into tears mascara smeared on my face even more. I text back, "When was this." I bury my head into my pillow. It has mascara stains all over it. I'm seriously surprised it isn't fully black yet. I get a text back saying, "Monday." And that's all it says. It would make sense. Jonah said he was going to tutor Henry, his 13 year old neighbor. He was gone for a few hours. I decide to go scream at Jonah instead of texting Jasmine back.

I burst open his door with tears still running down my face. I throw my phone at him and scream, "WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS." My arms crossed over my chest. "She kissed me...I swear." He can barely get out. "Bullshit. Then why are your arms around her god damn waist!? When you were supposed to be tutoring Henry!?" His hands were clearly around his waist and he obviously was kissing her back. "I made a mistake...I'm sorry." Jonah comes closer to me. I push him away and grab my phone out of his hands. "NO. And what makes it worse, is you didn't fucking tell me about this." I scream. "I knew you would get mad so I didn't tell you." He says coming closer. "I would be less mad than I am now!! I'm done." I run into my room crying slamming the door behind me. I hear Jonah punch something. Oh well. Because its his fault. If he wouldn't have kissed her back.

I can't do anything but cry. Cry until there's no more tears left. I honestly have no idea why he would do this. I let him in our home...but this was before the kiss happened. But still! He didn't tell me. He was holding her hips just like he did mine which is what really hurt. Why...why is all I want to know. I can't tell Jaret. He'll beat Jonah's ass, even though he deserves it...I just can't.

I hear a knock on my door. "I don't want to talk to you." I scream. "Babe. Just let me explain." He says while raising his voice. I can tell he's agitated. "No. I don't want anything to do with you for a while." I say coming closer to the door and grabbing the knob and twisting it so the door is cracked and he can see only my face. "Listen. I'm sorry. Yes, I admit, it was a mistake that I kissed her back," I interrupt him. "A huge mistake. And its going to be a while for me to trust you again." Tears coming more. "Yes. A huge mistake. And I know.." He looks at the ground. "But for now, I wanna distance for a little bit. Its for the best so you can make up your mind on who you want; me or Monica." I wipe my tears that are still coming down. "I want-" He tries to say but I close the door on him. He pounds the door and I hear him grab something from his room, go downstairs, and walk out the door. I run to my window and he walks next door to Dan's house. Dan is the biggest player in our school. They'll probably go clubbing and get laid. I wouldn't be surprised. I decide to take another nap for an hour or so. I dose off within minutes.

.............................................................................................................................................................

I wake up around 8:30pm. I wasn't expecting to wake up this late. OK. Now normal girls would sit at home, eat their feelings away, and cry. But I'm not normal. I'm going out tonight. With Jasmine cause she always makes me have a good time. I grab my phone and send a quick text, "Wanna go out tonight? I wanna get Jonah off my mind." I get a text almost immediately. "Sure. No boys coming with us. We can meet boys there. I'm on my way now." I decide to not text back because I don't want her to get in an accident. I'm sure she'll bring her whole closet. So I can pick something out when she gets here. I check in Jonah's room just to make sure he's not here, which he's not. I smile about that and go wipe off my smeared mascara. It was pretty hard to get off since I slept with it on. I look out the window and see Dan's car is gone. Ha. I knew it. They can go have fun.

I hear the doorbell and dash downstairs and see Jasmine with a whole pile of clothes. I open the door and grab some of the clothes and hop up the steps. We both put the clothes down and hug each other. "You okay babe?" She asks. I nod and smile. A real smile. Not one of those fake ones I've been doing lately. "Good. Now lets try on some clothes!!" She tosses clothes at me. "Do you want a dress?" She holds up the dresses. I immediately spot the dress I want. Its a black one shoulder sparkly dress that looks very short. I grab it out of Jaz's hands. "THIS IS PERFECT" I start stripping right in front of her. We've done it since we were like 3 or 4. I slip it on and it barely covers my ass. Which is okay. I know I'll have to wear a strapless bra. I hear Jaz gasp. "That looks amazing on you. You can totally keep that! I have the perfect makeup for that." She paces. "And I have the perfect pumps for this!" I walk to my closet and pull out about five-inch black heels. I slip them on and they fit just perfect. "Should I curl my hair or leave it natural?" I look at myself in the mirror. This dress really shows my curves. I love it. And these shoes make my legs look great. "Leave it natural. I have the perfect idea though so get officially ready and I'll do it" She says pulling on her dress. Jasmines dress is long sleeves and a bright pink. And obviously short. "You can wear a pair of heels. You know where they are." I say putting on a strapless bra.

We are finally ready. My makeup is basically a Smokey-Eye look with lots of eye liner and mascara. Jaz's is the same. Her shoes are identical to mine just brown. Her hair is straightened. Which usually takes forever but it was already somewhat straight. She looks gorgeous as always, and I have to say...I look pretty damn hot. I Put a timer on my phone so it took a picture. It took a few times but we got it. I immediately post it on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter, just so Jonah will see it somehow. The caption on the picture on every one of them is, "Going out with my girl! WITHOUT boys." In caps.

We take Jasmine's car and the night is just about to start...
