"Tay, don't you trust me anymore?" asked Sara between bites of her sandwich.
She and Taylor were sitting in the school lunch hall enjoying lunch and small talk but something had been on Sara's mind for a few days now and she had decided bite the bullet and meet it head on.
Her best friend looked at her, her dark eyebrows knitted together in confusion
"It's just we seem to speak about everything except the important stuff these days. Like you will tell me about the latest smutty story you downloaded or how much you struggled with your English assignment but you won't say a word about the stuff I know you are really thinking about"
"Which is?"
"Travis. Obviously. Look, I know I let you down with what happened with Jason and everything but we have been friends for so long, I kind of hoped you would trust that it would never happen again"
Taylor placed three fries into her mouth one after the other and began chewing as Sara waited for an answer but in all honesty Taylor didn't know what the answer was.
Had she been avoiding talking to Sara about Travis?
Not consciously but perhaps unconsciously she had decided not to risk it and that wasn't fair. Sara had been nothing but a good friend to her barr that one incident and if anyone knew how manipulative and devious Jason could be to get his own way it was Taylor.
"Well?" Sara prompted and Taylor took a long, loud slurp of her soda before looking back to her friend and sighing
"I do trust you"
"But?"
"But nothing"
"Okay well tell me about Travis. How's he doing? How's it going? I want to know everything"
Taylor bit back a smile, trying not to be so obvious about the fact that talking about Travis was her favourite subject
"He's good, we're good, it's all really, really..."
"Good?"
Taylor grinned and took another mouthful of soda
"God Sara he's amazing. He's like my dream guy, he's so hot and so funny and he's strong too like he doesn't take my bullshit lying down, but he definitely does take other stuff lying down, if you know what I mean"
Sara cringed at the sex talk but also smiled as Taylor rested her head on the shoulder of her best friends black, One Direction t-shirt.
She had her friend back and she would accept any lurid details it took it keep it that way
"I've missed this" Taylor whispered into Sara's hair
"Me too, Tay I'm so sorry about what happened"
"It's fine. Forget it okay, I have. It will take more than Jason Fuckin Kelce to come between us"
**************
"Hey Kelce, you didn't tell us Taylor was fucking your brother now" Callan laughed whilst approaching the table Jason and his friends were sat at.
Jasons head snapped up from his lunch plate and his eyes blazed at the boy stood in front of him grinning mischievously, causing trouble was obviously his aim
"I'm all for keeping it in the family but damn!" before he could even register the words Jason was on his feet, his hands pushing the chest of his so called 'friend'
"Fuck you!" he seethed but Callan just laughed and shook his head
"Hey Taylor!" he shouted across the lunch hall and was happy when Taylor turned around "Who is better in bed Big brother Kelce or Baby brother Kelce?!"
Taylors mouth dropped open in shock as Jasons fist collided with Callans temple
"Don't stick your nose where it doesn't belong Callan, you don't know anything about me and Taylor or my brother for that matter so if you want to keep your teeth I suggest you shut the fuck up" picking up his bag from the table Jason stormed out of the lunch hall and out of the school to the car park and the one person in the school he trusted to help him out, the way he needed help
**************
"Bogdon"
"Kelce" the large man with tight black curls and just as dark eyes looked up from the driver seat of his car "Who is it this time?"
"Travis"
"Again?! Fuck Jason I like Trav"
"500 dollars"
"Well, I don't like him that much" the man grinned and rubbed his large hands together before laughing loudly causing Jason to cringe
"Let me know where you want him, I have a video that will get him to go where ever I tell him to whenever I tell him to"
"Clever little you" Bogdon said sarcastically whilst rolling his eyes
"What are we stealing this time? Not the guitar again. Roozhan threatened my life when she found out I was involved in that shit"
"No stealing at all actually"
"So what exactly do you want for this 500 dollars?" his thick black eyebrows lowered as he began clicking each of his knuckles, one by one
"I want you to damage his face" the same black eyesbrows shot skywards "Everyone thinks he's so good looking no fucking girl can resist him well I want to damage the part of him that everyone loves so much"
"Jason..."
"A broken nose" Jason twisted his nose to an unnatural angle, "A scar, a burn, whatever it takes, you do"
"This could mean jail time if I get caught, do you realise that?!"
"1000 dollars and I make sure he's somewhere no one will ever think to look"
"1000 dollars? Cold hard cash and I'm in"
