I slowly open my eyes, the warmth of the sun beaming through my window, into my face. I slight turn my head behind me and jj wasn't there.
I let out a sigh as I heard my phone ring. It was Sarah Cameron.
"hey, you!" She greets as I answer.
"hey" I replied with a tired voice.
"You know how we are supposed to hang today?? Well there's a party. I wanna know if u wanna go with me??" She asks, excitedly.
"Yeah sure." I slightly smile. A party would be good.
"Okay, great! I'll pick you up at 6!" She shouts before hanging up.
I smile to myself as I put my phone down, not looking at anything else, before heading to the living room. Jj, pope and John b sitting on the couches. "Hey, the couches look neat." I smile, looking at everyone. Everyone looked at me and didn't reply and got back to what they were doing.
"What?" I ask. "Heading to a party soon?" Jj asks with an angry tone. "Uh, yeah, actually." I reply. "Kook party?" John b then asks. "Yeah- wait, how do you guys know." I ask before they all turned they're heads to jj. "Rafe Cameron sent you a little text this morning." He states as his jaw clenches.
I run back into my room and grab my phone. An Instagram message from rafe cameron, was infact... in my drop bar. I walk back out with my phone. "So your looking through my phone now?!" I shout over at jj. "It was just there!" He shouts back, clearly getting angry. "Whatever. I have better things to do." I say as I'm about to storm off. "Yeah like what? Getting banged by a kook?" Jj shouts over.
I slowly turn around and look at him with a confused look before my eyes then dart onto John b, who had his head down. "Fuck you." I say to both of them. Pope watched me leave with a guilty look on his face. I then heard commotion going on with them, I tuned it out while I looked for an outfit for this party.
I saw a couple of things in my closet that put a smirk right on my face. I wanted to wear the most revealing shit to piss off my brother and jj. So I did. I threw on a denim mini skirt and a white bikini with black knee high boots. I took my hair out and straightened it and wore my usual eyeliner and mascara with a few necklaces.
I look at myself in the mirror, I looked hot. My belly button peircing was showing and you could see the straps of my bikini bottoms revealing over my skirt.
As the time went on i was looking on my phone and remembered the text from rafe, I opened it and it said... "wld love to see u at the party tm😉" I read it and sighed. It was finally six and Sarah had texted me she was outside.
I grabbed my phone and a bottle of vodka and away I went out of my room. I had to walk past the living room to get to the front door so I had a confident smile on my face, knowing I was about to blow my brothers and jjs minds away. I walk out. "Oh hell no." John b claims. "Oh hell yes." I claim back. I look over at jj, his eyes were plastered onto mine, jaw clenched. I scoff at him then walk out to Sarah.
"Woo!" Sarah shouts as I walk out. I give her a dance as I walk to the car. The car didn't just contain her in it though. Rafe and topper were in the back, I got in the passenger seat. I look back at rafe and topper before Sarah starts to drive off.
"Hey, Vienna" topper says as we are on our way. "Yes... topper." I say. "How about we put everything in the past and be... friends?" He asks, honestly. I smile and roll my eyes. "Fine." I comfirm before doing a hand shake with him. We finally arrive and I click with some new people and old.
As the night went on, everyone was drunk. I then saw a group of people I knew from when I went to school. As I was making conversation I saw Sarah and topper jump from the roof. "Jesus!" I laugh.
The night was a blur.
I did coke, I smoked weed, drunk alcohol... all of it.
I even became best friends with topper by the end of the night. He's not all that bad...
I was then pushing through sweaty people, trying to find Sarah. You know when your drunk, and it's so fun, gets you hyper... then a few hours later you feel like shit. Yeah, well that was me right now. I needed to get out of here, so I headed down to the beach.
As I was stumbling around on the sand, wind hitting my face. I heard a familiar voice call out my name. "Vienna!?" Someone called. I turn around and as soon as I did, my eyes connected with theyres. God, I could recognise them ocean blue eyes from anywhere. "Jj?!" I laugh as I stumbled over to him.
Minutes later we are laying beside eachother on the beach, running my fingers through the sand, staring at the sky. "Im sorry for earlier. I was just..." jj went on to explain. "Jealous?" I finish for him. Highly intoxicated. "Yeah." He admits. I then slightly stroke my fingers along his hand, still looking at the sky.
"You have nothing to be jealous of, I don't want anyone else... just you." I admit. "Your drunk." He scoffs. "Drunk words mean sober thoughts." I smirk as I look over at him. He rolls his eyes before looking back at the sky, colliding his fingers with mine.
THE NEXT DAY
"So you guys nearly... did it, and she said no?" I ask as topper was on call with me, explaining him and Sarah's problems. "Yeah, I don't know..." he laughs. "What you doing today?" He then asks. "Probably nothing... hanging out with my brother, mostly." I sigh. "Me and rafe are going golfing... if you wanna join?" He asks. "Nah, got massive hangover from last night." I laugh. "Okay, well, catch you later, vi." He laughs. "Bye top." I say before hanging up.
Me and John b hang out for a little before going surfing and messing around in the water.
"Hey, do you and jj have something going on?" John b suddenly asks. "No... what?" I laugh nervously. "I can tell you guys like eachother." He sighs. "No... he doesn't like me like that" I laugh. "Whatever you say." He smiles. "Your rules, John b, your rules." I say as my smile fades a little.
"Hey! Save some waves for us!" We suddenly hear jj shout while him and pope jump in the water. "Hey where you been?!" I shout over as we get to surfing.
We later head back to the chateau and chill on the hammocks. "I wanna get out of this place." I sigh. "Yeah, I wanna go to yucatan." Jj sighs. "I believe we will one day." John b says and I then nod my head. "Even vi believes." John b smiles. "Oh my god, vi, do you really believe?" Jj chuckles. "I do." I say as we all let out a laugh.
"I'm gonna dream about hot kooks." I say, mocking jj from the other day. "Good night, bird." He mocks as my dad used to call me that. "Good night, bird shit." I laugh before placing my head on his shoulder and falling asleep.
I was thinking back to what John b had said earlier, did I like jj? Did jj like me? No. Scratch that.
Did I love jj? Did jj love me?
John b tells his girl pals, he loves them. He tells jj he loves him. He tells pope he loves him. He tells me he loves me. Jj does the same to everyone else, but me.
Why?
Because he knew if he said it... it would be the first time he's told the truth of once.
Even though we never said it to eachother,
We knew.
