Facetime Calls~ jschlatt

~chapter 20~

I was dreading seeing him again, but at the same time, I wanted to. I thought he was beginning to open up to me, but I was wrong about that. He still hates me.

Ted was absolutely furious when we drove home. He made me tell him what happened, and now we're stuck in an awkward silence because I don't know what to say.

"Please don't hurt him, Ted,"

"He made you cry Nora, he's not getting away with being a fucking asshole to my best friend" his knuckles whitened as his grip on the steering wheel became tighter.

We pulled up to the apartment building and ted took no time to park his car and storm out.

He practically stormed through the building and I had to run after him. He opened his apartment door to find schlatt lying on the couch with his phone to his ear.

"pick up.." he muttered as he sighed in defeat slamming his phone down and dragging with hands down his face.

"I don't know who the fuck you think you are right now, but you better clean up your self pity act or you can find somewhere else to stay. I will won't fucking tolerate the way you talk to her. Nora's been through a lot in life and she doesn't need you bitching in her ear 24 fucking 7"

Ted angrily shouted at schlatt who now was fully aware that we both were both back home. Schlatts faced dropped as he looked between me and ted.

"Nora, I'm so fucking-"

"don't fucking speak to her you asshole"

Schlatt seemed to get pretty pissed off by this so he stormed off and then we heard a door slam.

"You can sleep in with me tonight, Nora," Ted said, looking over to me.

My eyes started to tear up as I nodded.

"Hey, hey, what's wrong?" He asked me.

"No one's ever really cared enough to stand in for me,"

"I promise I won't let anything like this happen to you again,"
