One Weekend Of Giving In

Chapter 20

My face heated as the memory of last Sunday played through my mind. I still didn't know why Jace was so different on Sundays but at least during the week he would usually say hi to me. I didn't expect more from that since I was always with Carly or Spencer but after that moment on Sunday I was curious as to why he would avoid me. And that curiosity led to Jace and i's confrontation at the house on Friday.

"Why are you avoiding me? You are seriously so bipolar Jace. You avoid me the whole week but when Sundays come, you are hardly away from me."

"You think I'm bipolar?" He scoffed and narrowed his eyes at me "I thought you wanted me to stay away Mac." Jace took a step forward and I took one back to create distance but that made him take another step forward, whispering into my ear "Why fight it? I know you want me baby. Just a simple touch from me and your body is covered with goosebumps." The tips of his fingers being brushed down my arm indeed formed goosebumps.

"You're wrong. I don't want you. I would never want an Asshole like you." I hissed and moved to walk around him but he puts his arm up against the wall, blocking me in.

"Oh come on baby. Spencer got his turn, Mason got his,so when is it mine?"

"What are you talking about Jace?"

"Tell me, when will I get to fuck you too?Or is there waiting list i have to sign up for?" My jaw dropped and I formed a fist and aimed for his face but before I could connect, Jace was being pulled away from me and being slammed against the wall. Spencer's forearm was pressed against Jace's throat and his face was turning red with anger.

"What the hell did you say?!" He boomed and pressed Jace harder into the wall. Instead of responding, Jace spit on Spencer's face. Spencer grabbed Jace's shirt to bring him forward while his free arm delivered a hard blow to Jace's stomach. Jace swung and hit Spencer right at the face. I started yelling at them to stop and somehow they ended up on the floor with Jace on top. Spencer knocked Jace's head to the side and Jace spit on Spencer's face once again but this time it was full of blood. I continued yelling for them to stop and thankfully the other housemates came out of their rooms.

"Shit. Ugh again?" Ian huffed as he ran to grab Jace's arms to stop the fight. Andrew kept Spencer on the floor while Alec helped Ian haul Jace toward the living room, away from Spencer.

"Holy crap Mackenzie, you really drive guys crazy huh? All the drama seems to lead back to you."

"Issac"

"Yeah?"

"If you want to have kids in the future, I suggest you step away from me before I take something away from you."

He wisely moved away but didn't keep his mouth shut

"Sassy. Hey Spencer, you got a little something on your face."

"If I were you, I would run." Andrew warned and Isaac took off for the backyard. As soon as Andrew got Spencer back up, Spencer went straight to his bathroom, not saying a word to me. Andrew looked at me and nodded toward Spencer's bedroom

"Just wait for him in there. Just give him a few minutes to calm down. And Mac?"

"Yeah?"

"For gods sake, just stay away from Jace. The less drama, the better." I nodded before walking into Spencer's room. I sat there alone for a few minutes. I heard doors open and shut, the guys were all yelling at each other and I even heard Spencer threatening Jace. The door opened and I watched Ian and Andrew struggle to push Spencer in.

"Chill out man!" Andrew puffed as he kept shouldering Spencer's chest so he couldn't leave.

"She's mine!" Spencer yelled and pushed forward again

"Well she won't be if you don't calm the fuck down. You're scaring the hell out of her Spence."

Spencer turned and half his anger calmed down when he saw me. He slammed the door shut and locked it but didn't turn back to me. He rested his head against the door, one of his hands still formed into a fist. I started to get up but his voice stopped me.

"Don't come near me Mac. I need a minute." I waited for a few minutes and stood up once again

"I think I should go ba-"

"I'll get Andrew to take you back." He finally looked at me and my stomach dropped. I wasn't expecting him to want me to leave. I thought he would want me with him, but he wanted me to go back to the dorm?. Worst yet, he didn't want to take me. Was he that mad at me? My throat closed up so I nodded and grabbed my bag before walking out of the room and waiting outside for Andrew.

"Will you please take me to a hotel?" I asked Andrew once we got in his car.

"Hotel?"

"Yeah. Carly and Cory are at the dorms and I would hate to barge in on them. Just take me to a hotel."

He nodded and didn't say anything until we were at the entrance of the hotel.

"Don't take this thing with Spencer to personally. Try to forgive him. He feels bad enough for doing this to you."

What? Oh my god, is he going to break up with me? My eyes watered from the thought of Spencer breaking up with me. I couldn't thank Andrew for the ride because I was afraid that once I've opened my mouth, I would start sobbing. Andrew got out of his car and walked me up to front desk. I couldn't speak so Andrew was kind enough to get me a room which he also paid for. When he returned with my key card, I shook my head and the tears started running down my cheeks.

"I'll pay you back. I promise."

"Don't worry about it Mac." He awkwardly hugged me goodbye and I watched him walked out the doors. As soon as I was in the room, I curled up onto the large bed and let all my tears out for once and for all for the man I have fallen in love with. He called an hour later but I was already heartbroken with what I knew he was going to say, so I ignored the call and turned my phone off. He no longer wanted me. He no longer loves me. I cried myself to sleep and was woken up due to the loud pounding. I freaked out when I didn't realize where I was at first. The pounding started again and I hope it wasn't some drunk perv trying to get into my room.

"Mackenzie!"

My eyes widened and I scrambled off the bed. Shit. I should have just answered my phone. Break up over the phone would have been less painful than face to face. I unlocked the door and cracked it open. Spencer stepped in and pulled me into his arms, bringing his mouth to mine. "Mac, what the hell are you doing in a hotel?"

Why the hell did he kiss me? I thought to myself

"I've been going crazy trying to get ahold of you." He huffed

"I.... I didn't want to talk to you."

His face and arms fell

"I just couldn't handle the pain of you breaking up with me Spence."

"Whoa... Wait a minute.... What? Why the hell would I break up with you?"

"Because you.... Isn't that... Wasn't that why you wanted me to leave in the first place?"

"No." He hunched down and cupped my face "I thought, after the fight you just saw, I thought you were afraid and wanted to get away from me."

A sob escaped my chest and tears streamed down my face again.

"Baby I'm sorry. I should have handled my anger in a better way. I shouldn't have lost it like that in front of you." He crooned and wrapped his arms around me again.

"So we're not breaking up?"I asked

"God no."

A huge wave of relief washed through me "by the way, I wasn't scared because of how angry you were, I was scared because I thought you were mad at me. I got you in another fight AGAIN and I thought you were angry at me for that."

"Mac, I would fight anyone for you, anytime." He kissed me softy. He picked me up and without breaking our kiss, laid me down on the bed. His lips moved across my jaw and I spoke

"You can take me back to your room tonight. If you still want me." I asked breathlessly

"Are you kidding? This place is perfect. I even rented the room until Sunday." He grinned impishly and I hurried to pull his shirt off his body.
