Hopeless - The sequel to Breathless. A Janoskians fanfic.

38. "I brought you coffee."

Veronica's POV -

James rolled over in the bed and groaned, I'd been awake for an hour or so, unable to sleep because of the sunlight bursting through the curtains. It was now 8:26am, I'd had enough of attempting to fall back to sleep and lifted my head from the sheets. I swung my legs around and climbed out of bed, pulling on my denim shorts and one of James' old t-shirts, "Roni..." he grumbled, making me jump, "don't leave me just yet." he continued and lifted up the quilt, indicating that I should get back in. I jumped back onto the bed and kissed his forehead lightly, "I was going to make us all breakfast." I said, knowing he would soon change his mind, his stomach grumbled loudly making both of us laugh. "okay, you have permission to leave. I'll be with you in a minute." he said rubbing his eyes and sitting up grumpily. I placed one last kiss on his forehead and walked towards the kitchen, Luke and Sierra were fast asleep on the sofa's and I bumped into Shay as she walked out of the guest room. "morning." she giggled as Beau grabbed her by the waist and flung her over his shoulder, "morning." I laughed back and followed them into the kitchen.

"coffee?" I asked them, Beau nodded his head and Shay decided on Orange juice, I'd normally have orange juice but last night had been a late night and with all the clearing up that needed doing, I needed waking up more. The coffee machine was soon ready and I placed three mugs on the side, after they were filled I added sugar and James snaked his arm around my waist. "morning beautiful." he kissed my neck and took his coffee from the side, joining Beau and Shay at the counter. "look at that cunt." Beau laughed, pointing at Luke and pulling his phone out. He walked over to Luke, sprawled across the sofa and took a few pictures on his phone, before finding a pen and drawing a dick on his chin, going into his mouth. We all laughed at the sight of Luke, which woke Sierra on the other sofa and she looked around confused. "morning Tommy." I laughed, I always called her Tommy because of her tomato red hair, she stretched and stood up, revealing her polka dot underwear and bare chest to the rest of us. Beau's mouth fell open as he ogled at her body and shay dig her elbow into his ribs, "shit!" she yelled and wrapped the blanket around her. The rest of us laughed as she panicked, trying to find her dress.

Finally Sierra threw her dress over her body, tied her hair into a side plait and walked over to Luke. "oh my fucking God." she cried with laughter, and took a photo on her phone. We were all enjoying eggs, bacon, toast and beans in the kitchen when we heard Luke groaning in the living room, I looked over to see him stretching his arms up and yawning. It was hard for us all to keep straight faces as he walked towards us, "morning sluts." he sang, stealing Sierra's toast and staring at us all, as we held in our laughter. "What the fuck did you do this time, Beau?!" he said sternly and walked towards the bathroom, a few seconds before, "I'm going to fucking kill you Beau!" echoed thought out the house and Beau ran out into the garden. Luke, with a very red face from scrubbing away the pen, appeared and ran into the Garden after Beau. We all immediately left our breakfast and followed them, still laughing at the two of them. After a few entertaining minutes of watching Beau and Luke running around and wrestling each other, I made Luke a coffee and placed his breakfast plate on the table with the rest of ours.

We all sat around and ate quietly, until Luke asked the question everyone had been trying to avoid, "So what happened with Isla last night?" beau and Shay were the only ones not there, apart from Jai and Ariana of course. "yeah, we heard shouting." Shay confessed and Sierra and I exchanged worried looks. "I don't know if I can say, it's down to Isla." James shrugged and continued eating, the others had a right to know, but we couldn't be sure that one of them wouldn't tell Skip. "Meh, whatever." Beau mumbled and Sierra quickly changed the topic, "so what time do your parents get back James?" she asked, reminding the rest of us we had to clean the garden up before they returned. "1pm, we've got three and a half hours." he replied, clearing the plates from the table and I began helping him, "I'll clear these away, you guys start on the garden." I said, scraping the left over food into the bins and filling the sink with hot, soapy water. "rather you than me!" Luke laughed, as everyone disappeared into the garden until only James and I remained. "What stopped you telling them about Isla?" I asked, he shrugged his shoulders and mumbled something about being loyal.

Isla's POV -

The room was silent, Daniel stared at me with his mouth wide open, speechless. The only emotion he showed was shock, "I-i-I'm g-going to-to be a d-dad?" he stuttered, looking puzzled. It was hard to tell if it was good or bad news to him, "Well, maybe not biologically." I admitted, I doubted he had thought about the possibility that Benji could be the father. "It could be Benji's." I told him, I could see his heart break by the expression on his face, "I don't know the dates yet, I need to make a doctors appointment." I finished. Skip stood up and walked out of the room, without saying a single word, I heard the front door slam and I began crying heavily. I knew this would happen, why did I tell him?! I felt so stupid. I picked my phone up and dialled Skip's number, it rang and rang until finally Skip's voice bled into my ears 'Bro, I'm not here so leave a message.' fuck sake. I continued to phone him several times, but each time went to voicemail. On the eight time I gave up, 'Daniel, where are you?' I left as a message and rolled over on the bed. I hadn't stopped crying the whole time and knowing that he didn't want to talk to me just made me cry more. I needed the girls.

Sierra: Hello?

Isla: Sar? I need you.

Sierra: Isla? Are you okay? What's happened?!

Isla: I told him, he ran out on me, I don't know where.

Sierra: are you serious? I'll be over in half an hour!

Isla: don't bring Luke, please?

Sierra: just me, I promise.

I dropped my phone onto the bed and shut my eyes tight, I tried to stop the tears but they soaked into the pillow I was now hugging. I curled into a ball protecting my stomach and drifted off to sleep. I awoke to Sierra's voice, "Lala! It's me." she shook me gently and I opened my eyes, "I brought you coffee." she smiled and placed the take-away cup on my beside table. I glanced at my phone, 2pm, no missed calls, no messages, no sign of Daniel. "thank you." I whispered, curling back into a ball and wrapping the quilt around my cold body. Sierra stroked my hair from my face and hugged me gently, "he's an idiot Isla." she whispered and curled up beside me. I allowed her to crawl under the covers with me, I sobbed into her chest as she hugged me and rocked with me in her arms. "what do I do Sar?" I asked her scared. I lifted my head up but Sierra had fallen asleep, I laughed for the first time today and kissed her forehead. My phone began vibrating on the bedside table and I picked it up, it was an unknown number. Normally I wouldn't answer, but something inside of me told me it was important.

Skip: Isla, I can't do this. I can't deal with this baby being Benji's, I just can't process it in my head. I know he hurt you, I know it's not your fault, but that baby isn't mine, we both know that. I'm sorry, you know I love you, I really, really do, but I can't love that baby. I'm going to stay with Addie in Perth for a week, just to get my head straight. I'll talk when I'm back.

And with that, he hung up. I was broken.

________________________________________________

Addie is Skip's cousin from Breathless if you can't remember.

So this story only has a few chapters left, I'm not sure how many exactly, but I'll probably try and finish it at 45.

When I've finished this, I will continue to write, don't worry. I don't think I'll continue with this story, I'll start a completely new one HOWEVER I'm not sure what to do, Luke, Jai, James, Skip or Beau? Please comment any ideas you'd like to see made into a story and I'll see what happens. I have a rough idea but who knows. Also, I'll probably makes the chapters shorter in the new one, just so I update more often! xx

THANK YOU GUYS! x
