Jay's POV

The walk to the plaza wasnt that long. i loved being able to take in the surroundings and enjoy a nice conversation with JC.  We talked about alot of different thngs. It was really good to have a normal conversation with someone. We walked into ihop and got sat quickly. i ordered a regular pancakes with egg breakfast and JC went in on his food. The boy can eat.

"Have you ever thought of making covers of songs on you tube?" JC asked out of the blue.

"Uh no, why would i? i can't sing..." i answered truthfully. i really didnt know how to sing. i only knew how to play the guitar.

"You don't think you can sing? You have an amazing voice. People need to hear you sing." he answered smiling.

"Well i dont know about singing but i would be willing to do acoustic takes on songs. i know how to play the guitar." i answred smiling and taking a bite out of my pancake. He smiled at me and i smiled back.

"You can play guitar?" he asked.

"Yeah, my mom taught me how to play before she passed away." his face dropped and i knew this just became an awkward conversation.

"i'm sorry to hear that. Well, at least you have a way of remembering her." he said trying to comfort me. i could at least give him credit for his attempt.

i smiled, "Yes i do, i would like to do covers and suff but i dont have the time right now, especially with school and season starting in a month." i added trying to change the subject.

"Well why dont you do it right now since you have some free time?' he asked smiling.

i smiled back, "Well the only days i have off are Saturdays and Sundays. i have 4 a day practices, then i have work. i dont get home until like 10 every day." i explained.

"What are 4 a days?" JC asked.

i smiled, "Since we are on summer break, we are only allowed to be enrolled in the fitness courses. This means that there are 2 hardcore workout classes that we are required to take. So that basically counts for 2 of our practices. The other class is weight training and the last class is our practice. Each class is 2 hours and our practice goes on for as long as they feel." i answered.

"Fuck that sounds painful." he answered.

"It's not. i actually enjoy it. Since we do all of our conditioning in th classes our practices are usually just drills and playing against eachother." i answered smiling.

"No wonder you're all toned. You make me look like a chump." I laughed and he chuckled.

We finished our breakfast and i was about to pay when he stopped me. "It's my treat." i insisted and he ended up winning i shrugged and put my card away. i smiled and he smiled back.

We walked out of the restaurant and he would playfully nudge me whenever he got the chance. It was a fun day. i liked that he let me borrow one of his shirts but i was going to give it back to him when we got back. We walked into jamba juice and i was craving a smoothie.

"What are you going to order?" i asked.

"I like the mango one." he answered. i ordered mine and his smootie and i paid for it. He gave a look and i stuck out my tongue. He laughed and shook his head. I enjoyed hanging out with him. we got our smoothies and walked outside. 

"So, i was thinking maybe you can stay and hangout with all of us today? The guys seemed to really like you. Who knows what crazy shit we might do today?" i smiled.

"Yeah, that sounds fun. i wouldnt want to be home today. i think Diana and Kian are still there, i am not in the mood to argue with her again." i answered smiling. 

"So what did you guys argue about anyway?" He asked taking a sip from his smoothie.

"Well, i know i shouldnt be saying this because she is my best friend, but she's kind of a slut. She looks for easy hook ups then moves on to the next guy. i get it you know, it's college. I just don't want her fucking with Kian's emotions since you know his break up with Andrea. i called her out on it and then she brought up that being a slut was better than being cheated on and lied to. i told her i defended her whenever people called her names at parties and i didnt give her a chance to say anything after that." it felt good to get it off my chest. 

"So you called her a slut?" he asked.

"Not intentionally. i was just trying to make sure she didnt hurt Kian. i was trying to be honest but i probably did offend her." he smiled sympathetically.

"Well, you were being honest. i agree with you, i'd want my friends to call me out when i was getting out of hand. What did she mean about the whole cheating and getting lied to?" He asked. i didnt want to talk about Danny but i guess i kind of have to.

"My ex cheated on me multiple times and i walked in on him with one of my teammates. it stung when she said it." i said looking down at my smoothie.

"How long were you with him?" he asked.

"i was with him for 3 years. i broke up with him over a year ago. i havent been in a relationship since." i shrugged.

"Well he was an idiot for what he did. You deserved better." he said putting his arm around my shoulder. i smiled and thanked him. He pulled his arm away and we continued walking back to his place. I asked him a bunch of questions and he answered all of them. 

We got back to the house and we saw that Kian's car was in the driveway. I hope Diana wasn't there i didnt have the energy to fight and be awkward with her.

He opened the door and we walked over to the kitchen.

"Kian!" JC shouted. 

"What?" Kian answered.

"Are you the only one here?" JC asked.

"Nah, Ricky and Connor are up here with me. Get your ass up here! Oh, bring Jay too." Kian answered.

How did he know i was here? "We're going." he answered. i made my way up the stairs first. i didnt know where Kian's room was so i waited for JC to lead the way. 

We walked into Kian's room and he was filming. Connor and Ricky were sitting on the floor . I greeted them and they smiled at me. Ricky was semi vlogging and Connor was just laughing at Kian's faces. I couldnt help but smile at them. They were so easy to talk to.

Kian kept talking to his camera and i sat on the ground between Connor and JC. Ricky was vlogging and then he said, "Hey guys so we are just chillin' like villains watching Kian film. i am her with Connor, our new friend Jay who is a college volleyball player. and little Justin. Yeah, nobody cares about him." He said laughing and JC threw one of Kian's shirts at him. 

"It's ok i care about him." i thought to myself.

"What?" Connor and JC asked. Wait what?

"What?" i asked. What happened.

"Aw, JC she cares about you." Connor said reaching over to punch his arm. Oh my god i said that out loud. This was embarrassing. i buried my face into my knees and JC chuckled.

"Oh my god. I can't believe i said that out loud." i said into my knees.

"Don't worry about it JC told us he cares about you too. It's a mutual feeling." Ricky added. i felt my cheeks get really hot. Oh god this was so uncomfortable. 

JC put his arm over my shoulder and pulled me close to him. He whispered into my ear, "It's true i do." i lifted my head up and shoved Connor. He laughed.

"Hey, i'm trying to help a sister out." Connor said smiling.

i rolled my eyes and turned to JC. He was looking straight at Kian and i kissed his cheek. He turned to me and smiled. Thankfully my phone rang and i got to escape all the unanswered questions.
