Storm In A Teacup (a Jye Menzies fanfic) (COMPLETED)

You Were My Drug

   "Rec! We're done," Bryan yells and I blink, hitting record. How many times had he told me to stop rolling?

   "What's up with you today?" he asks, walking over as I get to my feet.

   "Nothing," I reply, shaking my head as I take the camera off the tripod and put it carefully back into its case.

   How was I supposed to explain to him? He was my cousin, pretty much my brother, and he'd just tell me that I didn't need him. I hadn't seen Jye all day, which was odd. Was it because of what had happened yesterday? No, he'd understood, I was underage. It wasn't like I was rejecting him.

   I pick up the case and the tripod, smiling over at JJ from Close To Home as I walk away to put them in the back of the car. I look up to see Jeff walking by and I hurry after him, tapping him on his shoulder.

   "Oh, hey, Rec," he says, smiling at me.

   "Do you, er, know where Jye is?" I ask, hoping that my voice didn't sound as desperate as I thought it did.

   "Oh, he's back in the room," he replies and I nod, pulling him into a quick hug before walking off in the direction of the hotel.

   I walk down the hotel hallway, stopping at room 348, and stop outside the door, feeling stupid. How did I expect to get in without a keycard? That's when I noticed that it was open a crack. I shake my head to myself, pushing it open without thinking to knock.

   My mouth drops open at the sight that greeted me. A shirtless blonde sitting on Jye's lap, either of his hands resting on her hips. A chocked sob escapes me and he pulls back, brown eyes falling on me. I turn and run, slamming the door behind me as I race down the hallway and onto the stairs, not wanting to take the elevator.

   I climb half a flight before stopping on the landing, sinking down against the wall, pulling my knees to my chest. I sat there, sobbing, for a good five minutes, mind totally blank. Why'd he done that? Because I wouldn't? Was that what I was to him: nothing?

   Finally, a lightbulb went off in my head.. revenge.
