The Maynards

Car Park

I woke up, unsure of where I was, pounding headache. I was just in my dress and and slowly sat up, the blood rushed from my head. I was on concrete, a car park maybe? I took out my phone, I quickly remembers I had school but soon realised that was the last of my worries. I looked down......5%... Shit, I better use this wisely. The first person I thought to call was Conor, until i looked at my messages...
Conor- I can't believe you did that... My brother.... My own brother... I really thought you were better than that. I don't know where you are, I don't care, but whatever you do don't come back or try to call me, we're done.
'FUCK ...... Well what the hell do I do now' I mean I could call Jack, but that could end badly, Joe... No, Mikey.... No, Caspar.... Well. I know you guys must be thinking, 'Caspar is going to have no idea what to do', but who else was I going to call, Joe was like an older brother to me and that would just be embarrassing, so I had one option. I called Caspar,
"Heyyy" he said enthusiastically
"Heyyy look I need your help "
"Um ok... Btw how was last night" Caspar had a tendency to go off track on conversations.
" look Caspar !! I have 3% and am in a car park somewhere, I'll send you my address and come get me, if your at Conor's, take his car." I felt a little mean shouting at Caspar but this was urgent, the phone went silent till I heard a quiet ok. I hung up and sent him my address, before I was sure it was sent, my phone died. Let's just hope and pray that Caspar makes it.
I sat down and probably had a while to think. I suddenly realised that telling Caspar to take Conor's car was probably a bad idea, cause a- he's going to have to drop me off back at theirs and second, well, Conor is just going to be pissed at Caspar cause of me... Why do I always fuck up.

20 minutes later I saw Conor's car pull in... Thank fuck. Although Caspar was not alone in the car, no instead there was Caspar who was driving, Jack in the front, Joe in the back and Mikey in the middle. They must've thought this was funny or something. They beeped, to make things even worse, they all decided to get out the car and walk up to me.
"So, gemma, what happened last night?" Said Joe with his little laugh, I grinned at it, but I tried not to let them see that,
"Good night then, kaw" said Mikey, fuck they saw. To be perfectly honest I couldn't remember, I mean all I could remember was getting ready, going out and the last part was... Oh fuck.... I kissed Jack ... In front of them all.
Question was, could they remember?
"Um sure, don't remember much though, maybe you could fill me in" I hoped they would all agree and tell me so I could just forget about it all and fix things with Conor, if I could. Most of them looked slightly worried, but Joe confidently said yes, Joe hadn't drunk last night, his fiancé (yeah Joe is now engaged!) asked him not to as when Joe is drunk he always ends up flirting, I mean he probably had a few drinks but he definitely did not get wasted.

We all slowly got back in the car, Mikey talking really loudly just to give me a headache. When we got back in the car it was Mikey and Caspar in the front and then Joe, Jack and me in the back. As I wasn't sure if jack remembered the kiss, I felt a little awkward around him, I really shouldn't have, we had slept together before this so there was really nothing to be awkward about. Caspar turned on the radio and it was one of Conor's new songs he was working on, none of the boys had heard it yet, but I already knew it so well. Conor and I spent hours at night, staying up till early morning, listening and finalising his music together, fuck I would miss that. I quietly sang along to it, only letting one tear fall.

We were nearly home when Joe, Mikey and Caspar all then got into a heated argument over some celebrity conspiracy theory Mikey had heard and at that moment Jack turned to me with his glistening blue eyes... No I can't... I can't have feelings for Jack, we had drunk sex and a drunk kiss... That was it.
I looked back at his eyes, I couldn't help myself. He grinned and looked down, was he into me too? I knew it was highly unlikely that anything would ever happen cause I'm his brothers ex, but never say never.
Without realising it I slowly lay my head on Jack's shoulder, Joe notices and quietly says
"Oh, was it just a kiss then?" At this movement I was half asleep but slowly lifted my head in a slight panic, I didn't think anyone had heard and I was hoping that they may have all forgotten but I just new they hadn't. I raised my head to a red faced Jack and a giggling Mikey. Joe and Caspar didn't seem fazed but I was sure to give Joe a pleasant death glare, slightly smiling after to show I wasn't serious. Joe replied with a shrug and a slight smile, he is so annoying.
Jack started to look worried, he started to become quite defensive and started saying, "look guys it was just a drunk kiss, she could have done it to any of you, I mean it's not like we slept together."
'fuck.. Well done Jack, if one of them knows it's going to come up, I mean they obviously know cause Conor probably told them, fuck I hadn't even thought about Jack and Conor, what happened?' I thought, as I began to rest my pounding head on the car window, leaving a space of awkward silence.
We pulled up to Jack and Conor's, I was scared, I had no where to go, it was either home... No cause my mum will be there and I still reek of vodka. School..... Um no, I'll pass thanks, or finally.... Here.
I began to follow behind Joe, Mikey and Caspar, who for the rest of the car journey had gone quite. Jack was still standing by the car, I decided to go over just to sort at least one problem out.
"Hey" I said softly
"Hi"
"So you remembered"
"Yeah course"
"Look I'm sorry ok....."
And before I could finish my sentence I was interrupted by jacks lips against mine... It was one if the best three seconds of my life. He smiled at me, Jack Maynard so liked me.. JACK MAYNARD LIKED ME. I never thought this moment would ever happen, of course I liked Conor a lot, and I did really see a real relationship with him, but Jack, his soft, floppy blonde hair and those blue eyes, anyone would find it hard to resist. As I entered the flat I new I would be faced with a very angry and hungover Conor, but all I could think about was the kiss, that no one saw, or at least that was what I thought. Jack and I walked in, Conor was sitting in the sofa looking angry, the balcony doors open bringing in a cold breeze. All the guys were just standing there, like an army, or guards, as if I was about to have a meeting with a King. I came into the room and Conor stood up, Jack had gone to his room, that was probably a good idea.
"Do you actually wnat to go out with Jack now?"
"No, look Conor, why would you think that, it was a drunken kiss, I'm sorry it meant nothing."
"If it meant nothing them why did you sleep with him and why did you just kiss him again"
"It's not like that"
"What's it like, then gemma, what's it like, you are trouble, and I knew that from the start, this is done."
His voice was cold and I wanted to cry, the rest of the boys had gone into the other room, giving us some space. He had seen the kiss and I really did have nothing to say, I had screwed up. To be perfectly honest though I did like them both, Jack was really fit and is probably just a fling, but Conor, he's adorable and I could really see something with him. I had liked these boys since I was 13 and never did I ever think in a million years I would actually be friends with them, let alone in this situation.
Suddenly Conor grabbed his keys and left, slamming the door behind him, he seemed confused and probably wanted space, I don't blame him, considering what I did.
I slowly walked in to the balcony, crying slightly, my heart feeling like it was breaking into a million pieces, and I slowly watched the love of my life drive off......
