LOVELY * JOBA

twenty one.

January 1 / Champion House

It's been a couple days since my parents have left. Actually it's been almost a week. They called two days ago to let Matt and I know they won't be back for another week. They said Aunt Ham relapsed and had a stroke again and she's not doing too well. I do feel bad for her but I'm not affected by it because she lives on the other side of the country. We're also not that close with my extended family which makes it hard for me at times since it's only Me and Matt.

Ever since the party, Joba and I haven't hung out much only because he has been working with the boys on projects as well as hanging with Sahar. I feel so lonely since Matt has been gone too. They've been working so much on their music and even though Matt told me about it I still feel left in the dark. The last time it was mentioned to me was the day we spent at Romil's. I've been home alone for days now, I feel I've forgotten how to socialize.

I should probably text Harrison. I feel we haven't been talking for days and I miss him. But being Harrison I know he'll be busy so I'll send him a text. I should probably tell him what been up with me too.

Billie: I miss you like crazy. Please come over!!!

Harrison: Sorrryyy. Haven't had service for a while. I'm in Alaska!! But hows Joba, you two still a thing? Don't forget about me.

No service? Now I don't feel so bad for not talking to him in a while. I feel I owe it to Harrison to tell him about what happened at the party. I don't want to talk about it honestly and Matt doesn't even about it, but Harrison's my best friend. It'd be nice to get it off my chest.

I type slowly figuring out how to exactly mention it, but not draw too much attention to it.

Billie: How could I forget abut my bff. So Sahar went to this party and got pretty messed up )): ... Joba and I went to help her out and Nick was there.

Harrison: Is she okay? Ask if I could have her # 😝... All of a sudden Nick is turning up everywhere. Did he say anything? 😰

Billie: She's fine and will do ((: and well he was drunk I guess and kind of kissed me

Harrison:
(1)Is that a good thing!? I mean you've always talked about him and his good looks and wanting him to like you?

(2)My service is acting up. I'm in a house dang it.

Billie: No he kissed me and I didn't want him to ): I tried to get him to stop him but couldn't. then Joba saw and got a little violent with him. But I'm okay, I think.

Harrison didn't text back I'm guessing his service failed him now. At least now he knows. I don't know how I'm gonna tell Matt or if I should even tell him.

Speaking of Matt, he's home and I hear Joba's voice. He must be here too. I hear laughter and wonder what that's all about. I decide since I'm gonna have to see Joba right now, I have to look good but before I can even change my clothes, there's a knock on my door. 

I look like shit. I knew I wouldn't be doing anything in my sad last days of break but I'm not ready to be seen when I'm in a state of looking like a hobo. I haven't done my hair since yesterday so it's still in a very messy 'messy bun'. I have on a an oversized T-shirt, one of Matt's. It's pink Rick James shirt and I loved it so much. I tried it on one day and stole it from him. Oops.

I open the door and Joba shocked, immediately turns away.

Do I look that ugly?

I furrow my eyebrows confused about why he looked at me strangely, "What?".

He covers his eyes with his hand and gestures down towards the bottom of my shirt with his other hand, "it's okay. I'll come back", he says laughing.

I gape realizing the shirt that is supposed to be oversized, isn't all that oversized as my underwear is peeking out. How could I have opened the door before thinking Joba could have been on the other side of it. The amount of times I've embarrassed myself in front of people is just horrendous.

I nervously laugh and start to blush, "oh my gosh... hold on, don't go", I rush to the side of my bed and pick up some spandex. I put them on, lifting my feet a little too excited that I trip and fall over, "oh god".

Joba helps me up, laughing, "Are you okay?".

I put my spandex on holding onto joba this time. "I'm fine. And sorry I look ugly. I missed you", I say kissing him.

"You looks gorgeous and I can tell", he breathes out during a pause between our kiss.

"Hey Bil-". Matt clears his throat, catching our attention. He rolls his eyes, "Can you do that when I'm not here".

"You're the one who came in here", I shout as he leaves. Joba and I go out to the living room.

Matt is in the kitchen eating some pizza. I look at him in disgust. Swear he eats like a pig.

"Want some?", he says chewing his food.

I look out the window and see a car driving away that looks like the one Nick used to deliver my pizza. Suddenly I loose my appetite. I shake my head no and he shrugs his shoulders.

"So hows your music?", I ask my brother hoping he'll share some more about it. I think it's really cool that he and Joba along with a couple boys are working together on creating quality music. I am genuinely interested in it all.

"We just finished a couple songs. We uploaded them onto SoundCloud and YouTube", he says with his mouth full again. He's enjoying that pizza but gross. "6,000 streams already!", he says with excitement and emphasis.

"That's great!", I smile, excited for them. "Can I go with you next time you guys go to Romil's? I want to see your friends again", I say pouting.

Matt wipes his mouth, "N-"

"Sure", Says Joba excitedly before Matt finishes. He also rolls his eyes.

My phone rings and I get a call from my mom, "Hi Mom!... were good... No I haven't done anything bad... it's just me and Matt... We haven't done anything except run a couple errands", I lie. "love you too... okay".

I hand the phone over to Matt, "Mom wants to talk to you".

Joba and I sit on the loveseat sofa and cuddle. I must say it feels nice to have a boyfriend. I've never had one before and well I feel as if I've been missing out. I've never felt so close to someone before or just felt like I could be comfortable around them. It's a good feeling.

"We'll be fine, Love you", Matt hangs up.

He stares at my phone screen reading something.

"What are you doing?", I ask.

"Why is Harrison texting you about some one named Nick?", he says confused. I can see him scrolling up. His eyebrows furrow holding the phone up to his face to get a clearer view of what he's seeing.

"Who is Nick? And why did he force a kiss on you!?", Says Matt obviously furious.
