Reason To Sing (Sequel to TGASUH) (Jardougall)

6- The Issue

"Guess who..."

I giggled a little and pulled Jenna's hands down from my eyes. "Hm, maybe the only Australian person I know." She chuckled and wrapped her arms around my waist. "How'd it go with Courtney?"

She paused and bit her lip. "You're, uh, you're not gonna like it." I furrowed my eyebrows as we sat down on the nearest bench.

"She wants to kill me?"

"Well... I don't know."

"You don't know?" She shook her head. "How do you not know? You literally just-" I locked my jaw. "You didn't break it off with her."

"Tay-"

"After the emotional explosion we went through last night with Robyn, you couldn't break it off with her?"

"Can you please keep your voice down..."

"No!" I sighed loudly and leaned back against the wall, making Jenna frown a little. "I can't believe this, and I don't know why. I should expect shit like this from you."

"You're not listening to me, Taylor."

"No, I'm not. What fucking excuse do you have for not doing it?"

Jenna looked down. "When Courtney was away for work she had a, uh... fun night. She was really drunk and..." She sighed.

"She cheated on you? Isn't that a good reason to break it off?"

"She's pregnant." I held my stomach subconsciously, cringing at the news. Jenna looked ill just talking about it, so I grabbed her hand. "I just... I can't leave her. She needs me more than ever."

"Come here." I pulled her into a hug that she practically melted into.

"You know who's really bangin? Lauren Jauregui. If I ever met her I'd probably cry."

I gave Nicki a weird look. "She's a child."

"What? She's legal. She's one of my freebies."

"Are famous people allowed to have freebies?"

"Who says I'm famous? I sell alcohol and get paid to pose in stunning clothing. Niggas love my ass." I rolled my eyes as Ashley walked back into the living room. "Right, Ash?"

"Are we talking about your ass again?" she asked. "Everyone loves it. I love it."

"Gross," I grumbled. "Couples."

"Oh, yeah, hey, you never talked about what happened with Robyn," Nicki said.

I took in a breath to begin talking, but the front door opened and Jenna's voice was clearly heard.

"Nicki!" she yelled. The door closed as Nicki made our presence known, and Jenna waved when she walked in. "Hey. You'll never guess who I ran into at the gym today."

"I swear to god if it's Lauren Jauregui," I started and Jenna laughed.

"No, better."

"What's better than Lauren Jauregui?" Nicki asked.

"Drake!" We all made an "eh" noise and Jenna sighed. "Yeah, you're right. But he was super sweet. He said he wants to meet you."
