Ivy POV:

His name slowly fell from my lips as he pushed into me again and again. My mind clouded with lust and my nails making their mark on his back.

I wanted to feel this way forever; for the first time in my life, it felt good to be exposed and vulnerable because I knew that he would be there to take care of me.

Suddenly Rook's phone started ringing, we ignored it the first few times but the more time that passed, the more annoying it got.

I gently pushed him off of me and handed him his phone. "Ivy....."

I shook my head. "I'm not mad, just answer the phone." I laughed, rolling to the side.

Rook smiled and kissed my forehead before answering the phone. As he talked to the person on the other line, his facial expression turned from happy to horrified in a matter of seconds. He sighed deeply as he hung up the phone.

"What is it?" I asked, furrowing my eyebrows.

"Ash was rushed to the hospital, we need to get back to Ohio...like now." Rook jumped out my bed and started getting dressed.

I really didn't know how to feel about the whole situation, I barely even know Ash but Rook cares a great deal about her so I'd go just to support him.

During the flight, Rook was completely silent and it seriously worried me; it was if I was invisible.

"Damn it Rook! Just talk to me!" I shouted, making the other passengers look a me as if I had two heads.

He turned his head and narrowed his eyes at me. "I'm not in the fucking mood to talk Ivy."

"Look, I know you're upset but don't shut down on me. You haven't spoken a work to me ever since we got out of that bed. How do you think that makes me feel?"

He rolled his eyes. "Not everything is about you. It was just sex...don't you think Ashleigh is a little more important?"

Just sex.

Just.

Sex.

Those word echoed through my head and that's all I could think about. I felt like I was suffocating, there's not enough oxygen to fill my lungs. I pushed past him and ran to the bathroom, a flight attendant stopped me on the way.

"Ma'am you need to sit down, we are about to land soon." She said politely.

"Oh fuck off." Tears streaming down my face. I could hear Rook calling my name, chasing after me. I'm pretty sure we're going to get banned from American Airlines.

I quickly locked myself in the small bathroom of the airplane. What the fuck was I thinking? Giving it up to a guy I just met; I thought he was different, I really did.

Suddenly I heard a loud knock a the door, instantly knowing who it was. "Ivy...babe you know I didn't mean it like that. We're both emotional right now, can we not do this 40,000 feet in the air?"

"How could you even think of saying something like that? Do you know how much it took to even open up to you? It was not just sex for me..." Tears streaming down my face with no sign of stopping anytime soon.

Rook didn't say anything else, I'm not sure if he gave up or not.

"I haven't known you for long but I want this...I want us. I can't unsay what came out of my mouth but I sure as hell can make up for it. Please just come out of there so they can land this thing." Rook replied quietly. I had no doubt in the emotion laced through his voice.

It made me feel like I was overreacting, but hey...it's what I do, I react impulsively. It's a part of this whole mental illness I've got going on.

I took a deep breath, wiped my face and opened the bathroom door. As soon as I did, Rook grabbed my face and passionately pressed his lips against mine.

When we pulled apart, I hugged him, burying my face in his neck. He smelled absolutely amazing...like always.

"I'm sorry." He mumbled into my hair.

I grabbed his hand and led him back to our seats.

Jenna POV

As one of Ashleigh's closest friends, I had to be there for her after the accident. She somehow hit her head and fell into the lake, she drowned but was revived and is now in the hospital with a severe concussion.

Everyone was sitting around in her room talking and giving Ash company. The only person we were waiting on was Rook. Instead of being at fEST with the rest of us, he took off to NYC with a girl so it took him longer to get here.

Suddenly, the door opened and Rook came in with a short but gorgeous girl on his arm.

"Finally!" Ash whisper yells playfully.

Rook smiles brightly and goes over to give Ash a gentle hug.

"H-how are you doing Ash?" The brunette softly asks.

Ashleigh turns her attention to the girl, "I'm doing good, I'm hurting but alive. Thanks for coming...it means a lot."

Rook then turned to me "Oh Jenna, this is my girlfriend Ivy."

Everyone looked over at him with widened eyes and Ivy smiled over at him, surprise written all over her face.

"Wait...you're Jenna? The girl who called me a whore over the phone?" Ivy snapped out of her daze.

"Ivy...I thought we let that go..." Rook mumbled, grabbing her hand.

Ivy laughed bitterly. "You wish."

"Oh shiiiiiiiit." Kells sang.

I rolled my eyes, that instigating mother fucker .
