Knocking

Jordyn POV:

"Hi Ben. Um can we talk?" I asked. I looked into his room and saw Jeff laying on the bed.

"Yeah come on in." He said. I followed him into the room and I sat on his bed. Ben threw a pillow at Jeff who quickly sat up.

"I'M AWAKE!" Jeff screamed, jolting up.

"Good! Now get out!" Ben said. Jeff slowly stood up and left, taking the pillow with him.

"So-um-how's your brother." Ben said, breaking the awkward silence.

"He's ok, but that's not what I want to talk about." I replied. I had to do this.

"Oh." Ben replied.

"Listen, we need to talk about us. What happened at the airport-"

"I just don't understand what I did wrong Jo. I was just trying to help you."

"Ben I don't want to take you down with me every time I fall. It's not fair to you."

"Jordyn I want to be with you, through everything. I want to be with you through your happiest moments and through your worst moments. I want to be there to help you when you are down. Who stayed with you all night when those guys attacked you? Did I have a choice? Yes. I could've let you stay there alone or had one of the other guys stay with you. But I stayed there for you because I wanted to be there to protect you and make you feel better. When you found out your brother was in the accident, I chose to get on that plane and fly out there with you."

"It's not fair to you to have to pick me back up every time I fall which is almost every other day of my fucked up life. I'm broken, and I don't want you to be broken too."

"If you are broken, then I want to be broken with you. I want to heal you and make you the happiest person alive. Getting on that plane and leaving you was the hardest decision I had to make Jordyn. But I knew if I stayed it would make you more mad. I thought you hated me and that's why you broke up with me. I have spent this whole week crying over you, waiting for you to call me, looking at old pictures of us. Jordyn, I love you. And I want to be with you." I stared at him with my eyes widened. 

"You-you, you never told me you loved me before." I said, shocked.

"Well I do. With all my heart. I have never felt this way about anybody else. Jordyn, please, be my girlfriend again."

"I'm just going to hurt you-"

"You are hurting me by not being with me."

"Ben I'm sorry but you deserve better than me."

"Nobody is better for me than you Jordyn! I'm begging you, be my girlfriend again. Please. You won't hurt me, I want to always be there for you." My eyes started to water, this is why Melissa put waterproof makeup on me. "So what do you say? Be my girlfriend? Forget this hell week ever happened?" He said, smiling. Looking into his eyes, I just couldn't resist him. His smile, his charm, how he made me happy. 

"Yes!" I said, grabbing his face and pulling him in for a kiss. In the middle I heard the door open.

"Why is Jeff asleep on my-" Josh started. Me and Ben pulled away from each other quickly, startled by Josh. Ben fell backwards onto the bed. "Oh, uh hey Jordyn didn't know you were back...or in Ben's room....or back together with-" Ben cut him off.

"Well now you know! So um what were you saying about Jeff?" Ben asked, laying on the bed still, trying to play it off. My face was red and so was Ben's.

"Um well I was going to ask why Jeff was asleep on my bed but now I understand. So uh what's going on here?" Josh asked. 

"Oh you know, just chilling on this bed." Ben said. Sometimes, Josh doesn't get hints. I held back laughter as Ben shot Josh looks. Just then Chaz appeared next to Josh.

"Anybody have an extra-oh, hey Jordyn! I didn't know you were back!" Chaz smiled.

"Hi Chaz!" I said.

"So why is she in Ben's room? I thought they-" Chaz started.

"You know, these rooms are not very private." Ben said, annoyed. And then of course Nico and Zachary showed up.

"Hey did somebody say Jordyn's back?" Nico asked, then he looked in and saw me. "Oh hey there she is! Hey Jordyn!" He waved. Ben's face was really red now.

"Um are we interrupting something?" Zachary asked.

"Yeah, kinda." Ben replied. They were all standing in the doorway, staring at us. This isn't awkward at all. Oh and the last to show up was Sky, Jordan, and a half asleep Jeff.

"I heard my name" Jordan said.

"Not you Jordan, girl Jordyn!" Josh smiled.

"Wait are they back together?" Sky asked. I looked at Ben, there was nowhere for me to go, they were blocking the only exit. 

"YES WE ARE BACK TOGETHER!" Ben screamed.

"Well it's about time!" Jordan laughed.

"Ben was miserable without Jordyn, he barely left the hotel room." Chaz said.

"He just sat and looked at all the pictures of you guys, it was sad." Nico added.

"Ok well everyone's seen Jordyn so byeeee!" Ben said, trying to kick everyone out.

"Hold up, this is my room too." Jeff said pushing his way through everyone and flopping down on his bed next to Be. Ben quickly stood and walked over next to me. 

"Well I better get unpacked, it's great to see all of you again, I missed you all so much." I said, pushing my way through the mob of people in the doorway and going back to my room. I really missed these doofs, I'm glad to be back.

Ben POV:

Jordyn left the room and I stood there with all the guys in the doorway (except Jeff who was asleep again on his bed).

"Hey did you all know there's this thing called knocking. And another thing called PRIVACY!" I told them.

"So you and Jordyn are officially back together?" Sky asked.

"Yes, and I told her I loved her." I replied. Sky turned and went back towards his room. Good, one less person to shoo away.

"And they kissed!" Josh added. "I walked right in on it."

"Which takes me back to our lesson of KNOCKING!" I said.

"I never really considered you guys broken up. When she did it she was just emotional and didn't mean it." Nico said.

"So what all did you two talk about?" Zachary asked.

"Not much before we were interrupted." I replied.

"Ok guys maybe we should take a hint and give them some privacy." Jordan said.

"Aw but what fun would that be, not messing with our little Benjie." Josh laughed. Honestly whatever the guys do right now is fine with me. Nothing can ruin my good mood, I'm back together with Jordyn and I can't stop smiling. I'm the luckiest person alive.
