The bad boy next door

"He could never take what was already yours"

The car ride home was uneventful. I managed to pull myself together by the time the others got back. They raved on and on about the hot guy that did their nails.

Don't mean to be sexiest but a guy?

I was greAt full when we dropped Cora off. And even more great full  when we got home. As soon as we pulled up I dove for my bedroom. I started a one person rave. I turned up my music as loud as it would go. I danced like there was no tomorrow all whilst eating one of the many packets of rainbow sour straps I had hidden in the depths of my wardrobe. I danced and sang. I didn't  even notice when so one knocked on my door. Only when they knocked louder did I notice. I turned my music down a bit and went to answer my bedroom door.

Flynn stood resting on the door frame. "Hey," I said. He looked at me and that was when I noticed a dark blue circle around his cheek. "Oh my god, who punched you?" I asked. "What are you talking about?" He asked. I reached out and touched it and he winced. "That may work on your mother and sister but it doesn't work on me." I told him. he shrugged. "Tell me who punched you." I demanded. "I can't." He whisperd. "Well yeah, yeah you can. Flynn tell me or I'll tell your mum and Alice the truth." I warned. He sighed,

I raised my eyebrows. "Okay, it was Jasper." He said. I gasped. "Jasper did this too you?" I ask sounding more shocked then I was. "Yes but please don't tell anyone. He... We were fighting and I didn't want to hurt him." Flynn said hanging his head.

I lifted it up to mine. "Hey, it's okay I won't tell anyone. But I will how ever give this Jasper a talking too." I said stepping out the door way. "No, cleo I won't let you. You'll just make it worse." Flynn said stepping in front of me and blocking my path.
"Fine!" I sigh and turn around. I wAlk to my balcony and jump over the railing. "Cleo what are you doing?" Flynn said trailing onto the balcony. "Going to talk to Jasper I said and with one last jump I reached his balcony. Flynn tied to reach me but I was too agile.

"Cleo I swear, if you don't come back here." He warned. "Save it Flynn. This ends now!" I called back over my shoulder.
I sound just like a leader of an army or something.

And charge.

I swing open the door to his balcony and wasn't at all surprised to what I saw. Jasper was quite disgustingly making out with a girl form the year above at our school."what....sorry!" I say. They both turn to look at me. Remembering the reason I came over here. I straightened up.  "I mean.. Get out!" I snap at the girl I must have looked pretty terrifying because she didn't argue and grabbed her things and ran out the room. "What? Cleo?!" Jasper said glaring at me.

Oh good lord, he didn't have a shirt on,
Why? God why?

"Please put a shirt on we need to talk." I snap. "How about no?"
"Fine your choice. What have you done to Flynn?" I ask. Jasper just shrugged. "Oh really you don't know?" I snap. Jasper smirked at my expression. "Why the hell did you punch him?" I yell at him. "He deserved it."

"He... He deserved it?" I ask.
I can't take this any longer.
Be calm my teenage hormones please don't.
I'm meant  to be mean.
Not thinking about how luscious those  abs look.
Mm

"Yep, he did."
"Jasper what don't you understand about this situation?" I ask.
"He took everything away from me!" Jasper, snapped.
"Like what? Huh Jasper name one?" I say.
"Whatever it dosnt matter."

"Well guess what? Flynn and I are not dating I swear on my life. I'm not dumb. Okay I wouldn't date someone who would just throw me away the minuet a newer version of me came along. Okay. I'm sorry for shutting you out. I'm sorry for everything I've ever done. But please don't take this out on, Flynn or Jay. Or anyone for that matter. Blame me." I say crossing his floor to stare him in the eyes.

"Cleo stop. Don't blame your self. This was all me I've stuffed it up with my mates, I've stuffed it up with you and I've stuffed it up with everyone. I'm sorry. Please forgive me." He said. "I forgive you."

"I didn't know this before, but I think... I think I like you more than a friend cleo." Jasper said grabbing my hands. I smiled. "I know, but please don't be angry with Flynn." I say.
"He took something important away from me." Jasper whisperd. I shook my head. "He would never take what was already yours." I say. Jasper took my face In his hands.
"Cleo, I like you."
"Oh jas I like you too." And I stood on my tippy toes and kissed him firmly on the lips.

I hope I don't get std gosh who knows home many girls he's skrewed.

I placed my hands in his chest.

When I pulled free for a breath he leaned his head onto mine.
"Look at you. I send you in all prepared for war and you turn out kissing?" Flynn said appearing at the doorway.
I laughed and stepped back blushing. "Mate..." Jasper started.
"Don't worry about it. I'm sorry it looked like that between cleo and I. I really am." Flynn said walking over. I looked at Jasper with uncertainty, but Jasper just leaned over and hugged Flynn.

"How cute." I coo

Flynn punched me in the arm playfully. And Jasper leaned down to kiss me properly. "Get a room."
I looked up at Flynn. "So wait. If you guys weren't dating then why was Flynn always at your cleo?" Jasper asked.
Flynn nodded in my direction. "Jasper, Flynn and i's parents are getting married," I said.

Jasper looked at Flynn for approval and Flynn nodded his head. "What?" He asked. "Dose that mean Flynn, your moving in next door?" Jasper asks. Flynn nods. "Oh yeah!" Said Jasper slapping hands with Flynn. "Boys will be boys." Said another voice in the door way. I looked and found Jay and Cora standing there. "Is this a reunion or what?" I tease and run over to great them. I hug Cora. "I'm sorry for being so shallow, cleo I just wish you'd told me." She smiled. "I know, I know I'm sorry. Next time no more secrets." I say. And wrap my arms back around her.

I turn and hug Jay too. "What's that for?" He asked sounding surprised. "Just because. I'm happy" I say.

After all the apologizing had been done we sat down and watched a movie. I curled up against Jaspers chest. "Your so beautiful." He whispered into my ear. I laughed.

I may not have my mum anymore. But I'm so happy for my dad and Val and I k ow she will be a fantastic substitute. I may have two sisters but I could never pick which one was better. I love them both and my brother, he just like the older punch bag I'd always dream of. And I have the best of friends and the hottest most kindest most amazing boyfriend ever.

My life is not perfect. Heck no
But you know what? I wouldn't change it for anything.
