No Strings Attached

Chapter 6- Pink Heels & A Lying Heather

"You've got no choice, babe, but to move on and ya know, there ain't no time to waste." It's Gonna Be Me, *NSYNC

Heather’s P.O.V

I didn’t know how to answer that. I couldn’t say yes, because then I would have told one of Jordan’s biggest secrets, and I can’t do that to her, she’s like my sister.

But then again, with the boys now, I know they can look after her when the girls and I aren’t there and able to. And I can’t lie to Tom…

It was like 90 degrees out, but yet I still felt a cold chill run through me. I didn’t know what to do!

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. “Yes. Yes, she is hiding something. Look I’ma tell you but you can’t tell Jordan that I told you, okay?”

Tom nodded his head quickly, “I promise.” He held up his pinkie.

I smiled, he was so cute! I wish he would just ask me out already, I’m like dying inside.

I linked my pinkie with his and then he said, “I pinkie promise! Now tell me please.”

“Alright, but first, let’s go somewhere even more private.” I said and grabbed his arm, leading him to an empty Starbucks in the corner.

Jordan’s P.O.V

Things with Nathan are going a bit bumpier lately. Now with him knowing that there’s something I’m hiding from him, I feel like he’s not gonna talk to me anymore. I mean, I wouldn’t wanna be around someone that has clearly lied to me and been keeping something from me. Especially when it’s a secret that I know he can help me with…oh gosh Jordan, stop blaming yourself, it’s not your fault….is it? I shook my thoughts away and continued to read the magazine article about Justin’s new ‘Believe’ tour. Boy, that kid sure is going places. I’m so proud of him!

“YEAH, WHEREE HAVEE YOUUU BEEEN….ALL MY LIFEEE ALL MY LIIFEEE!!!” Kat sang at the top of her lungs in the other room while preparing her hair for something.

“WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LI-I-I-I-I-IFE?!?!” Willow joined her in the other room.

I laughed to myself and put my magazine down. I went over to the door connecting our rooms and leaned against it. “Mind keeping it down just a bit? I’m trying to read about Justin Bieber’s new tour stuff. And you know I’m serious when I’m talking about my boy, Bieber.”

Rachael suddenly jumped from behind me and placed both hands on my shoulders. “How can you stand to ‘just be friends’ with that boy? If I grew up with him, I would’ve fallen for that boy as soon as I met him!”

“Well, I just don’t have those kinds of feelings for him. I’ll admit he’s pretty cute and all, but I just see him as an older bro and nothing more, nothing less.”

“I’VE BEEN EVERYWHERE, YEAH, LOOKIN FOR SOMEONE, SOMEONE WHO CAN PLEASE ME, LOVE ME ALL NIGHT LONG!” Kat started singing again and used her brush as a microphone, bobbing her head from left and right like a rockstar.

“Kat, you’re gonna ruin your hair for whatever occasion you said you were going to. OH WAIT! You never even told us what the ‘occasion’ was.” Rachael exclaimed and jumped on Kat and tackled her to the ground. “Tell us now!!”

“ARE YOU HIDING FROM ME, YEAH? SOMEWHERE IN THE CRRROOWWWDDD!!!!” Willow bellowed out loud.

I laughed to myself a little and then stared at her. “Aye, calm down a bit! Rihanna can wait!” I then went and stood in front of a Kat pinned down to the ground by Rachael. “And you, Kitty Kat, tell us why you’ve spent the last 4 hours going through not only your dresses, but ours as well, AND been doing your hair like a mad woman while dancing and singing to Rihanna hits.”
