I continued on with my paper work until it was all gone I sighed in relief then the bell went for lunch I had to meet Lisa at that coffee house I got up and went to the coffee house I sat down and waited for Lisa
"Hey"
"Yea hi" I mumbled
"So eh.." She sat down
"Let's just get this over with I only have an hour for lunch"
"Ok ok well as you know about me and jack"
"Yea you said you were in love with somebody else"
"No that was a lie "
"Then what is it?"
"Dayna he's turned to drugs"
"WHAT?!!"
"He smokes pot nearly every night and sometimes he didn't even come home"
"Oh my god I'm going to kill him when I see him next"
"No please ! You have to help you've been where he is your the only person that can help him"
"Alright alright ...we have to get him therapy "
"He won't go I've tried "
"I'll trick him I'll tell him I've turned back " I thought about the night me and Scotty smoked pot it made me a little happy but then I was worried about Jack I didn't want him to turn like me
"Please help me"
"Ok well...there is one way he would stop"
"What I'll do anything!"
"You have to go back to him ...tell him to stop and get help or he'll lose you forever "
"That's a great idea!"
"One of my finest" I scoffed
"Hey ..thanks so much ..and I'm sorry"
"What for"
"For everything I shouldn't have bullied you when we were younger ...I'm happy your a mechanic .."
"Yea well apology accepted ...why do you care about Jack so much?"
"I love him with all my heart and I know I've been with a lot of men but he's different ...I know you wouldn't understand you've never been in love right?"
"Eh....yea...I've never been in love .." I immediately saw Scotty in my mind anytime the word love comes up I think of him
"What's wrong you look distracted "
"Huh? Oh nothing I was just thinking about someone" after realising what I said my eyes shot open
"SOMETHING I WAS THINKING ABOUT SOMETHING!!"
"OHHHHH!!!" She grinned
"No no no no no no I was thinking about a ..a...engine ! Yes there's a engine I have to fix !!"
"Who is he?!"
"What?"
"Who's the guy? I know your lieing"
"I'm not there's no one !"
"Hmmmm"
"Oh gosh look at the time I have to get back to work bye now bu bye " I quickly got up and ran back to the ship a few hours passed and I was in the middle of work when my phone rang
"What is it Jack?"
"Who's the guy !!"
"What?!"
"Lisa told me your little conversation so now WHO IS HE!!"
"I don't know what your talking about Jack honestly "
"Dayna"
"Jack honestly if there was I would tell you" I was really nervous my voice went a little higher
"Your lieing I know you are your voice changed I'm going there and I will beat it out of you if I have to" he laughed
"Jack no there's really no need I have to work sometimes"
"I don't care don't come here"
"Ok well I'll see you in an hour"
"Jack don't come here"
"Byeeeeeee" he hung up
"Jack? JACK! God dammit!" I threw my phone on the desk and rubbed my face in annoyance
"What's wrong lass?" A voice said behind me I spun my chair around
"Oh ...nothing I'm fine"
"Don't lie to me " he stood infront of me and put his hands on my shoulders and looked me in the eyes
"Tell me the truth this time lass"
"Ok ok ok I was with Lisa earlier and I was distracted and Lisa asked me what's wrong and..." I won't bore you , you know what happened he removed his hands from my shoulders and thought for a second
"Well then there's no problem"
"Huh?"
"When Jack comes I won't be around simple"
"...but what if he finds out?"
"And how would he do that lass? Besides I have something I have to do and you can't be around don't worry it's for your Christmas present"
"Ok.." I have a weak smile and he kissed my forehead
"I'll call over around 8 alrigh?"
"Ok" he walked away to continue work when the bell went for the end of the day I walked to my chambers and got changed when my phone rang
"Hello?"
"Dayna it's me I'm at the boarding dock meet me will ya"
"Ok" I walked to the dock and met up with Jack
"So I have a few ideas who it is"
"Do you now and what are they"
"That man your always with what's his name"
I began to sweat
"Don't know who your talking about "
"Eh...shotty ? SCOTTY!"
"Him? HA! He's my colleague Jack I'd hardly go out with him"
"It is him you fancy him so why not"
"I do not fancy him never did never will "
"Bullshit"
"I'm being honest ! Besides we can't do anything so what bother "
"Dayna you've never been in love and you've never had a boyfriend I'm worrying about you"
"Why?"
"I mean your still a Virgin right?"
"JACK!!"
"What ?! I'm just stating a fact" yea that's what you think jackaboy

"Why the pause? YOUR NOT !!!"
"Of course I am I need a man to help me lose it dipshit"
"YOU LITTLE LIER WHO WAS HE?!"
"I've never had sex Jack no stop it!" I snapped I was annoyed at him and wanted him to drop it
"Don't snap at me I want to meet this mystery man"
"There is no man Jack!"
"Dayna come on I'm not going to do anything I was only messing I really would like to meet this man"
"THERE IS NO MAN DROP IT OK!!"
"Don't yell at me calm down"
"DONT tell me to calm down!" I lowered my voice a bit
"Come on I'm just acting like your annoying big brother" he nudged me
"I know ....sorry Jack "
"It's ok I mean I did push you a bit"
"Alright well do you want to get something to eat the dinning hall is still open"
"Yea sure" we went to the dinning hall and eat some dinner
"So hey can we talk in your chambers for a bit"
"Eh...sure .."
We walked to my chambers and sat down
"Thanks for talking to Lisa"
"No problem"
"I guess it was you that suggested us getting back together"
"Yea"
"Well thanks again it really means a lot"
"Jack...."
"What?"
"I ...I know about the drugs"
"...you do?"
"Yea Lisa told me everything your gonna get clean Jack"
"Once Lisa is back I'll give it all up I promise"
"Good...I'm trusting her with you now"
"Thank you ..."
"Don't Mention it "
"I mean it"
"Yea yea go on you can stay the night that chamber down the hall is free"
"Thanks sis"
"Go on get" he left and I sat back down when
Knock knock
"Come in" the door opened and in walked Scotty
"Your a sight for sore eyes" I smiled
"What Happened I ran into Jack in the hall..."
"Oh no ...he didn't"
"Aye ...kept questioning me about you "
"Please tell me you denied everything"
"Aye I'm not that stupid"
"Good" I smiled
I hate lieing to Jack but if he was in my situation he'd understand ..right?
