{Y/N's POV}

"Jordan! Your girlfriend's here!" Isaac screamed as soon as he opened the door and saw me standing on the other side. My face turned blood red at his statement.

"For the millionth time, Isaac. I. Am. Not. His. Girlfriend," I spoke as the younger brother rolled his eyes.

"Uh-huh. I'm sure," He replied sarcastically as I scoffed.

"No matter what I say it's not gonna change your mind. So I don't know why I try," I huffed out as he smirked.

"See! Now you're figuring it out!" He beamed as I rolled my eyes.

"Where's your brother?" I asked as his gleeful expression fell.

"I'm not sure..." He answered.

"Maybe try the basement?" He theorized as I shrugged.

"It's worth a shot," I answered, heading down the steps on my own, losing Isaac when his sisters entered the room, giving me time to slip away.

"Jordan?!" I hollered, peering around the corner of his room, spotting papers scattered across the carpeted floors.

I slowly walked in, feeling my heart beat accelerate in fear.

What's wrong with him?

I found his desk, seeing him hunched forward in his swivel chair with his fingertips burrowed in his hair and stabbing at his scalp.

"Jordan?" I hesitantly asked while placing my hand gently on his shoulder, resulting in him jumping like a robber caught in the act of stealing Starry Night.

"Oh my God..." He spoke, breathing heavily as he looked up at me.

"Sorry..." I whispered while putting my head down as I felt his hand capture my wrist. Being curious, I tilted my head up to look at him.

"It's okay. I was so... Out of it," He whispered, pulling me down onto his lap as I looked at the papers loosely everywhere on his desk.

"So, what is it you're caging yourself in your room and slaving over?" I asked, looking up at his monitor to see really tiny words covering the screen.

"College," He answered as my nose scrunched up.

"Ew..." I spoke as he chuckled.

"Yeah, it's not too fun," He responded before running one of his hands through my hair as I read the words on the top of the screen.

'Indiana University'

"You're getting into IU?!" I screeched with excitement as he slowly nodded.

"Yeah..." He answered somewhat shamefully.

"Jordan! That's huge!" I exclaimed as he nodded.

"So is the essay I have to write to actually get in. But, you know," He spoke as I looked back at him with a questionable look.

"When was the last time you ate?" I asked with concern as he shrugged.

"Slept?" I continued. Still a simple shrug.

"Left this chair?" I asked again.

"When I went to the bathroom," He spoke as I sighed.

"You know what! I'm gonna fix this," I spoke, placing my head against his chest and looking up at his eyes.
