"You still think Ray is the one who raped you Eli? Why? Didn't Jacob explain to you as to why that couldn't be?" Raya sighed and scratched the back of her neck. "That's my brother and I refused to believe he did that to you. Yes what he said was stupid and heartless but I doubt he would rape you Elijah. He's much more bold than that and you should know that. You know if he really wanted you then he would've told you not be viscious abour it and take something as precious as your virginity."

"I-I...I know. Maybe it was just so sudden for me to see him apologize to me. He just seem to really want the friendship back and his eyes had this type of guilt but not becaue of what he said but because of something else. I don't know, maybe I was reading too much into it. I'm sure he would never just voluntarily hurt me that way. His words, they hurt so badly Raya." Elijah sighed and continued to put bags on the racks as they waited for the store to open.

"Well you know Ray been hanging around Jon, maybe that's why he acting that way. Jon is like a bad influence." Myles butted in as he walked into the room with all the inventory. He smiled at Raya and kissed her cheek softly before grabbing a box and opening it up.

"Is y'all dating or what?!" Elijah exclaimed loudly and stood there with a hand on his hip.

"Mind your business nosy." Raya chuckled. Elijah shook his head and walked out the room to get ready to bag customers groceries. He walked over to Jaden's station and rolled his eyes at the fact that he had to be at his station for the day.

It was like he disliked Jaden...

Well actually he did dislike him but he tried to be nice because Jacob is deafeningly in love with the jackass and somehow Jacob has this type of pull to Jaden that makes him the nicest person on earth. They both glared at each other and then Jaden sighed and began cashing the customer's items. Elijah began to bag them and Jaden looked over at him and rolled his eyes. "Do it for my baby..." He mumbled to himself and sighed. "Hey E.."

Elijah looked up from the bags and rose an eyebrow. "Hello Jaden. Something you need?" He asked softly while packing the bags in the cart next to him. "Have a nice sir."

Jaden grumbled to himself as he waited for other customers to come over and sighed. "So how has things been?" Elijah shrugged and rubbed his hands together as he looked at Jaden in confusion.

This was the first time Jaden has attempted to try to hold a conversation with him. He doesn't understand what Jaden had against him but he knew the reasons why he didn't like him. Jaden was an asshole, smoked weed, and generally doesn't care about people but as stated before when around Jacob, that seems to change his whole personality and it really is mind blowing. "Jaden what do you want? Hmmm? You doing this for Jacob aren't you? I don't need your fake friendship to please him. You and him is y'all business and i don't have time for the games."

"Man whatever. This why we can't get along, because yo ass can't take it when i'm nice. I think you like it when i'm mean as hell to you." Jaden defended himself and scoffed.

"See! This is why i don't like you Jaden! You can't be nice genuinely without it having to do with Jacob. I don't give a shit about your attitude and bad boy behavior, if you can not act like a jackass for about five minutes then we would be alright. Just do your job and i'll do mine."

Jaden and Elijah had stopped speaking at that point and all you can see is secret eye rolls and heavy breathing as the day continued on. Jaden finally gave in to the fact that maybe he was being a jackass to Elijah especially after everything he is going through. Doesn't mean he'll apologize but he just wants to give Elijah a piece of advice for whoever hurt him. "E.." Jaden spoke up while scanning the groceries.

"What now Jaden.." Elijah rolled his eyes and sighed.

"I just think you should know something important. I know that everybody knows or think they know what happened to you but do not listen to them okay. Don't assume anything until you get the full story as to what happened to you. It may take forever for you to find out and you may never know at all but don't let it get to you." Jaden informed and looked at Elijah with soft eyes.

That was the first time for Elijah that he saw Jaden seem so sincere about something that concerns him so he nodded his head.

"Thank you Jaden..." Elijah smiled.

"Oh yeah E, another thing." Jaden warned.

"What?"

"Sometimes the people that are close to you, hurt you way more than what you expect." Jaden spoke then clocked out.

Who could he be talking about though.
