What About Love [Austin Mahone/Jake Miller/Janoskians FF]

Chapter 7

I couldn't believe my best friend was here! Veronica and I grew up together because my dad and her mom were friends when they were little so it was a family friend/best friend bond. When I left Melbourne when I was 10, I was hurt because that ment leaving behind Skip, the boys, and Veronica. Then I had to move at 15 from San Antonio to Miami? Life for me isn't exactly fun in the fucking sun. I almost forgot Jake had his waterproof iphone case on so I went in his pocket and typed in his password 5377 (jess) and hit the camera icon. I handed Veronica the phone.

"V, will you take a few pictures of us?" I asked, batting my lashes.

She nodded,"But of course J! You two are so cute!"

"Thanks babes!" I smiled.

First we took a normal picture of us smiling, then one of us kissing, another of us being silly. One was of me kissing his cheek and he did his grilling face, the last one was of him kissing my cheek and I was laughing at James because he was talking about how Jake should put a ring on my finger. I splashed him and got Jakes phone back. I sent them to my phone and set the one of us kissing as his lock screen.

"So, what's up with Alex being pms-y today?" Veronica asked, raising her brow.

I sighed,"He told Skip and the boys about me cutting over Jake & I's breakup two years ago because he want's Austin and I to date insted of me being with Jake. Guys I love Jake with all my heart and there's nothing Alex can say or do about it."

"What if he tells your mum or dad?" James asked.

I bit my lip,"I - I don't think he'll go to that extreme James. Plus he's not my boyfriend - Jake is obviously. He can't tell me who to love."

Jake kissed my shoulder then my cheek. I interlocked our fingers and wrapped his arms around the front of me. We partied til about 12 and then had a little movie night/game night if you count the boys playing FIFA 2013 and Veronica & I doing a follow spree/texting.

 "JESSSSSICA!" Beau screamed, making me jump.

I placed my hand over my heart, almost having a heart attack. "Yes Beau, how may I be of service you dweeb?"

Beau made a first and placed it over his heart, like I hurt him,"Ouch that sung, but yours birthdays in two days... WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE GOING TO DO?!"

I mentally slapped my forehead almost forgetting about my own birthday! I'll be 18 and mami wanted to throw this huge ass party which I specifically said hell-to-the-no! I fiddled with my fingers and shrugged, honestly not sure what I wanted to do. Veronica pushed me lightly and making a tsk tsk tsk noise and wiggling her fingers at me. 

"Jessica Ashley Yasman, you make your birthday every year more-and-more complicated than it should be." She said, patting my leg.

I groaned,"Because you throw this un-necessaryly  HUGE parties that I tell you NOT to throw but you guys do it anyways."

Luke interjected,"Maybe because you deserve to be spoiled after everything you've been through."

James nodded,"C'mon Jay, let us throw it... please?"

I scanned the room looking at everyone's pleading faces. Everyone wanted me to say yes except Analee, which confused the fuck out of me. She normally is the one to say YES to a party but for her to say NO is very strange and definately not her.

"Leelee, whats with the face?" I asked, pointing to her.

She shook her head,"Its.. er.. um nothing love. Just can I talk to you?"

I stood up and walked through the french doors leading to the poolhouse where Beau, Luke, Jai, James, and Skip would be staying for the time being. Analee shut the door behind us and sat on the couch. I followed her and sat down waiting for her to tell me why she's been acting so strange. Analee's nose scrunched up and that only happens when she's nervous or holding something back. I was beyond scared now because God only knows what she's going to spill.

"Jess,you know I love you right and wouldn't do anything purposely to hurt you right?" She asked, eyes watering.

I was shaking now," Analee Marie Young, what aren't you telling me?"

"Austin and I are dating, and someone told Jake about you and Luke, ya know um being ex's.." She sniffled.

I jumped up from the couch and screamed. I wanted to know who said to Jake about my past relationship with Luke and why my sister is dating one of my only true loves! I ran my fingers through my hair, mad no fucking pissed off! I stormed out of the poolhouse,ran to my room and toppled on my bed crying. What did I do to deserve this?! Austin and my sister?! Fuck him! Fuck her! Fuck today! This day couldn't get any worse! I thought, still crying my heart out into my sheets. Their was a light knock coming from my bedroom door and sat up sniffling. I coughed and threw my mini-Austin build-a-bear angerly at my door.

"GO AWAY WHOEVERS THERE! I DON'T WANT ANY COMPANY!" I yelled through my tears.

The door handle turned a couple times and then I heard my favorite song The Perfect Two by Auburn being played and that was Skip's code letting me know who's there. I hopped outta bed and walked over to the door, unlocked it, and there stood Skip with his ams wide open. I grabbed his arm and shut the door behind us. We sat on my bed and I cried into his chest. Skip rubbed my back and sighed.

"Jesy, whats wrong love? Whatever it is you know you can tell me, for crist sakes your my best friend and family." He cooed to me.

I nodded into his chest,"A-austin and A-analee a-are d d d dating! Some..one t..told J-jake about Luke an-and I's p-past relationship!" 

Skip lifted me off from his chest and had a mad/shocked/sad expression painted on his face. One thing about Skip is you never make me cry or upset because I promise you - he'll be your worst nightmare! Trust me because one time back in Melborne some dumb jock that Skip was close to tried to feel up on me and when I told Skip, the kid was in the hospital for three days. So I was worried because Skip know's if he does that again - I don't want to know or him with anything broken. He looked at me, shook his head and gave me a kiss on the forehead. 

"I'm going to get to the bottem of this bullshit situations Jessica, trust me when I say whoever opened their fucking trap is going to have a whole lot of hell to pay for making you this way. And I will be having a long chat with Analee, Austin and Alex. I'll send Jake up here okay? I love you baby cuz." Skip said, walking out of my room and quietly shutting the door.

A few minutes went by and I heard someone coming up the stairs. I took a few deep breaths and walked over to the mirror examinating myself. My mascara ran making me look like a fucking raccoon, just great! As I grabbed some baby wipes off my dresser, their was a knock at my door. I walked over to my door and said,"Who's there?" still not opening my door.

"Baby its me, open up please." Jake said

I opened the door and pulled him inside, I needed to get to the bottem of this. Maybe thats why he was mad earlier I wondered. Jake sat in my camo beanbag chair and patted his lap, asking me to sit on it. I walked over to him and sat there while he held me close. 

"J-jake t-tell m-me w-who t-told y-you a-about L-luke a-and I." I said through my tears.

His hands ran up and down my arms soothing me and calming me down. I could tell Jake was upset and how do I know that? Jake had a straight face and wouldn't look at me. I frowned and my lip started to quiver again.

"baby! p-lease tell m-me!" I cried, tears falling down my face.

He turned to me, wiped my fallen tears and took a deep breath,"Your brother pulled me aside when I was helping grilling the steaks earlier while you were in the grotto talking to Austin. Skip said that was before me so I over-reacted and when I heard Austin talk about him being single, I thought he was trying to make a move. Baby he also said something else was bothering you?"

I nodded,"Luke WAS before you, when I was still living in Melbourne/Texas. We broke up because I didn't want to have a long distance relationship. & Analee and Austin are dating! My best friend, no EX BEST FRIEND and sister are dating! H-how could they fucking do this to me?!"

"Baby, I'm so sorry about this. You know I'd do anyting for you but I don't know what to do. Please tell me how I could make that pretty little smile reappear on your face." Jake asked, poking my cheek.

I let out a light laugh and then stuck my tongue out at him. "Skip said he's going to talk to Analee, Austin and Alex. But knowing him that could lead to a trip to a little place I like to call the hospital."
