Catching Me (Being Edited) ✔

Be Mine (17)

So I heard this song called Be Mine, I heard a cover which is by Ellie Goulding & Eric Hassle and it made me write this chapter, and I adore this song and I hope you like this chapter.

Oh and I am writing chapter nineteen and I can say I am nearly done with this story so yay :)

 When I woke, it had just gone midday, and I was alone and little to say pretty annoyed. I can hear the sound of Tyler’s Xbox from the ground below. I slide out of my bed, holding the sheets around my middle, and walk to my bathroom. I take a quick shower, washing my hair before I step out and wrap a towel around me and walk into my bedroom.

    I see Jordan sitting on my bed. On the bedside table is a beer, and he is holding one of my many scrapbooks. I see that his lips have turned into a smile as he turns the pages. I stand in the doorway, my hair to the side and the only thing covering me is that towel. Jordan suddenly notices me there and sends me a smile, hitting the bed next to him before he picks up the shirt still lying on the floor and gives it to me. I turn away from him slightly before sliding on his shirt, and I lean over Jordan to grab a hair band, pulling my hair in a messy bun. Jordan kisses me on the lips before pulling me onto his lap. He slides his hand up my cheek and kisses me on the cheek.

    “You’re beautiful Scarlett.” His words come out a little slurred, but I know this is about as honest as I am going to get him and that’s what really matters. “I should have been nice to you when you came back, but I was such a dick to you and I am really sorry about that,” He says kissing me and this time the alcohol is mixed with the kiss. “You are, like, the best girl in the world and I am lucky to have you in my life, yet I treat you like shit. By the way, happy birthday.”

    “Jordan. First, my birthday is tomorrow and second, how much have you drunk today? I mean, it’s only, like, twelve?”

    “A few bottles. Um, ten, but your brother kept giving it to me and I have no idea why.” He's speaking very slowly, and it's a little hard to understand what he's saying. “You know Scarlett; I want you to be my girlfriend.”

    “Jordan, you need to sober up before we talk about us.”

    “But then I'll lie to you and treat you really badly,” He says going to kiss me but I turn my head, letting his lips land on my check. I look at the open scrapbook, and it’s the one that I made last year. It's the one that starts with me and Nathan and ends with Jordan and I.

    “You need to get some sleep,” I say and pull myself away from him. I tuck him under my covers and kiss him on the cheek before I walk over to my wardrobe. I take off Jordan’s shirt and slide a pale blue dress on before walking out the room and down the stairs. My brother is on the sofa with Harrison, so I gather that Jace is still having a check up on his collar bone.

    “Tyler,” I say and he turns around, and pause the game. His eyes run over me, and I say, “Why did you get Jordan drunk?”

    There’s a pause and he looks at me before saying, “Scarlett, you’re my sister, and I care about you, but it was something Jace said to me and I know you talk to him kind of a lot but I don’t exactly like you having a relationship with Jordan. So, I thought that if I got him drunk then he would tell me if he was going to hurt you or not and he did ramble about you a lot. So Scarlett, please may you just sort it out? You clearly want him back, and nothing I say will change your mind.”
