Tom's POV

~

"That's mine!" Jordyn shrieked as I took her homework papers from her and began running. I ran downstairs with her hot at my heels.

"You need a break from this stuff and have some fun!" I shouted behind me as I opened the door and ran out into the backyard.

"No! I have a test tomorrow and I have to study!" Jordyn exclaimed behind me. She was falling behind so I slowed down a little bit.

"You've been going at it for hours." I called back. There was no reply. I looked around to see Jordyn sitting on the stairs to the patio, arms crossed. I jogged back over to her. "I just thought maybe you would wanna go do something fun."

"Thanks, but no thanks. I've still got three chapters to study." She said, snatching the paper from me with a glare.

"I'm really sorry, Jordyn. I didn't mean to... I was just bored." I said in apology.

"It's fine, Tom. I'm not mad at you. Just stressed." She sighed.

"I know I'm not the best student, but maybe I could help you study." I offered. She was silent a moment.

"No."

"Why not? It'll be fun- I mean, educational!"

"No, Tom, you can't."

"But I wanna help you."

"You can't."

"Jordyn-"

"You can't help someone who is dyslexic, Tom." She said before running inside.

Dyslexic?

I never knew she was like that. But I mean, I would know how that felt.

I got up and ran inside after Jordyn but ran straight into Nathan instead.

"Why did Jordyn look really upset when she came in?" He asked sternly.

"I just asked her if I could help her study." I said, putting my hands up. I hadn't exactly done anything wrong, had I?

Nathan stared at as if I was as dumb as a brick wall before hurrying upstairs. Great. And I had planned on asking Jordyn to dinner while we 'studied'.

Nathan's POV

"Hey, are you okay? He didn't mean to hurt your feelings." I asked worriedly, taking Jordyn into my arms.

"I feel so retarded." She said in a frustrated tone. "I can't do this!" She growled, knocking all of her papers on to the ground.

"Jordyn, it's okay. Just take a deep breath." I soothed, rubbing her back. She sniffled a few times. "How about you take a small break, yeah? Let's go watch a movie."

She was silent for a few moments. "Alright."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've never cried over anything more than The Wanted.

But it is only a break, and the fanmily has to stick together during this.

Everyone is getting so upset, but the break isn't for a while anyways.

Once a twfanmily member, always one.

I love you all.

Thanks for reading.
