Long Way To Go ⇴ Syndisparklez

Chapter 30: Too Many Questions

A/n: Holy crud IAMWILDCAT was too quiet on the PAX East panel. He's too much of an awkward precious sinnamon roll for anyone to believe he's a loud-mouth gamer. And so is Vanoss!

Tom's POV

"Who's Son-y-a?" I asked curiously. His head shot up and he immediately turned off his phone. "No one, just a.. Uh.. A Canadian girl." Jordan replied. Canadian girl? I raised an eyebrow and Jordan chuckled nervously. "Don't worry--! She has a boyfriend! Not me!" He replied quickly. I don't know how much I trust that... Or how much I should trust that. Apparently he could tell I was unsure because he said: "Tom, trust me. I wouldn't date that girl if my life depended on it, she's more like a sister. I wouldn't dare steal Tucker's girl either." Tucker? Who's Tucker?

F*ck me if I'm just too curious but who the hell are these people?! Jordan saw that I was still confused and sighed. "Sonja is Tucker's canadian girlfriend who is also in America with him. We're friends. F.R.I.E.N.D.S." He said. "And plus, that would destroy my friendship with Tucker if I dated his girlfriend. I kinda have enough drama on my plate." Wait I need to figure this out in my head. Sonja is a Canadian girl who has a boyfriend named Tucker in America and they're all friends?

'Ding Ding Ding'  Jeez that's a long distance relationship. 'Pfft you live in the UK and you're head over heals for an American boy. Cut Sonja some slack' Isn't Canada like farther away from America? 'I have a hard time believing you even went to primary school'

I went to primary, and a bit of secondary school. 'Explains why you don't know how to use a freaking map!' Hey it's not like I plan going to a different country anytime soon. I have no reason to go to another country, mostly because I can't just leave Mum here. 'Er, why don't you just travel with her?'

'Well he can't really do that now since he has to spend nights with his father as well'

'O'

True, I guess i can't go anywhere. I'd rather just run off, f*ck the system. Josh went off before; now that was terrifying. He just snapped, fled to America, and left Tony and I confused as hell. We don't talk about that though.. We're not supposed to...'Why not?' We're just not supposed to talk about it. That's it. "....Are you even listening to me?" Jordan said, and I jumped.

"Why? What did you say?"

"...Nothing, basically just repeating the same thing and talking to myself."

"I--Okay...?" I said, not sure if he was being sarcastic or just creepy. 'How does that sound creepy?! You talk to yourself' Yeah but at least I don't do it where other people can see my sanity dropping! 'True true, but that's because you've learned how to keep quiet in a different way about different things' I feel like now the government is definitely doing and experiment on me. I can already hear the headlines, a teenage boy is discovered to be responsible for several deaths and he's psychotic. Great.

"Anyways, their trying to beg me to get on a boat back to America. Not. Happening." Jordan mumbled, crossing his arms over his chest and falling backwards on the couch. Wait so these random people who I don't know want him to go back to America and leave me here? I have a huge f*cking problem with that. 'What do you mean?' Well, I have a huge fucking problem with someone who wants someone to leave me drowning like a fucking rat. 'Woah chill for a second' Nah mate I rather fucking explode.

"Mmm, you're not aloud to leave anyways." I say, holding onto his arm like a little girl. 'Wow, you're more clingy and protective than me. And that's saying something.' Hey at least I don't-- never mind that's not true. 'Exactly. You're worse than me' Well that doesn't necessarily mean I'm 'obsessed'. I just can be a bit weird...

'Ha, 'weird'. Humans are so stubborn when it comes to admitting the obvious about themselves.'

'Pfft, have you ever been paired with jealously?! Now that girl is stubborn.'

'Jealousy? Really? I mean I met her once but that was-- somewhere where I wasn't supposed to be.

'Exactly'

Mum, dad, stop fighting. 'GO AWAY THOMAS.' You two seriously need like couples counseling or something. And plus, I can't go away. You're in my head, again I feel like you're the government. 'What about the government?'

'NOTHING'

"Tom, are you okay?? Hello? Tom? Earth to Tom!" Jordan said. Has he been talking? I wasn't listening at all, fuck. "What did you say?"

"Tom you're annoying. I said that I'm going to walk to where Insomnia is taking place, they called and asked me to swing by. So I'll see you in a couple hours." He said, rolling off the cough and grabbing my coat off the rack. I have to admit, it's sort of a turn on seeing someone wear my clothes. 'Please don't ever say anything like that ever again.' Well I didn't say it, I thought it. Ha. Don't complain, you're in my fucked up world here.

"See you later Tom!" Jordan exclaimed and I didn't realize he was at the door until it closed. Well f*ck.
