Chapter 15

            I was smacked in the head with a pillow by Shawn. We were watching a comedy he had picked out in Rory's room. Rory and I were on his bed while Shawn took up the couch. Camilia had left over an hour ago to volunteer her time at the children's hospital. Shawn had recapped on the events after Rory punching Cam. I had made a smart remark, hence the pillow throwing.

            I was surprised how easily Matt and Rob had turned on a fellow coven member for a guy they barely knew. But in a way it wasn't siding with Rory it was siding with me. Rory had classes with both Matt and Rob which was nice. I knew Rory and Matt would get along I just wasn't sure about Rob. We had too much of a history together. I don't think Rory would be happy about that.

            Maybe I could have Rory talk to Matt about Lauren. Try to get them together. Lauren would go nuts. Rory would definitely be scoring points with the best friend. Then we could double date or triple with Jolie and Shawn.

            It was amazing the way Shawn's face lit up when he talked about her. He asked me something I hadn't thought about. What if Jolie's not allowed to see him either. I hadn't known how to answer him. I knew there was a huge possibility of that happening. She couldn't get away like I could. I suddenly felt homesick. It wasn't that I wanted to be home necessarily, just that I could go home if I wanted to. I had been kicked out practically. My mom was so evil. I was even to chicken to call the house for fear she would answer the phone. I made a mental note to call Jolie's cell before bed so I could talk to her and Josie.

            "Yo, earth to Jillian" I looked up at Shawn. "Can I have some?" he asked holding up my unopened bag of Twizzlers.

            "Sure" I answered as Rory nudged me with his shoulder. We were laying on our stomachs at the foot of the bed.

            "What are you thinking about?" he asked with concern in his voice.

            "I was thinking about calling my sisters." He shook his head with understanding in his eyes.

            Shawn sat down right in front of our faces on the floor. "Call them now. I've been too scared to call Jolie's phone but I want to talk to her."

            "I was going to wait but I guess I could do it for you" I teased. I stood up to grab my phone and realized it was in my bag in my Jeep. "Shawn will you get my stuff out of my Jeep, please?" I asked.

            "Sure thing" he said walking out.

            Rory grabbed my hand and pulled me back down onto the bed. He started kissing my neck, working his way up to my mouth.

            "Aww come on" Shawn said with disgust as he walked back in. He dropped my stuff on the floor next to the bed. "Girls" he scoffed. "Are you planning on being away for a month?"

            "Maybe" I said with a shrug of  my shoulders. I grabbed my phone and stared at it for a moment. I called Josie instead of Jolie. I had a feeling I shouldn't call Jolie for some reason.

            "Jillian are you okay?" Josie whispered into the phone.

            "Yeah I'm great. Why are you whispering? Is everything okay?" I started to worry. Maybe I should go get them. I felt Rory tense beside me.

            "It's been crazy here since you left. Mom took Jolie's phone because she wanted to call you. Everyone's been fighting. She's gone off the deep end Lily."
