Chances.

Chapter Seven

Matt POV

Where the fuck was she? Did she leave? "Hey Taylor, is Megan's car here?" "Yeah man, why?" he replied. "I'm just wondering." and from there I knew.

I busted into Jacob's room only to see complete darkness. As I sexually rubbed up the wall I knocked into a picture, knocking it off the wall and waking Jacob up. "What the-" is all he said until he flipped on his bedside lamp. There she was. That was MY girl sound asleep in his bed. He gave me a confused look and then realized what was going on. I didn't know what to do. Should I yell? Should I hit him or run? Should I cry or just leave? I stood there in awe. "It-It's not what it looks like. She's just crashing here. Nothing more, I promise." He reassured me. Then Megan woke up with a big stretch she turned and looked at us. When she saw me her sleepy smile fell. I knew it was probably time to leave. I shook my head and walked out of their room, slamming the door behind me. I ran to my room and locked the door. I needed to be alone.

Jackie POV 

When I got back form the beach it was actually pretty late. I walked in expecting everyone to be asleep, not exactly the case. Nash was in the pool by himself. I unlocked the back door and went in. "Nash?" I questioned as he came up from underwater. "Oh, um, hey. What are you doing here? " I live here, Nash. "I'm actually always here." He chuckled and scratched the back of his neck. Damn. Wait what? No. Boyfriend's brother is off limits."Soo.. if you wanted to swim why didn't you come to the beach with me?" I asked. "I umm.. I burn easily. Plus I um.. I didn't think Hayes would really like that." He mummered. "Why would he care? I can't go to the beach with my friend? I was alone!" He laughed and combed through his hair. I watched intently until he looked at me and gave me an awkward smile. I snapped out of my trans and laughed.

Nash POV 

How does my little brother get this? I don't get it! I can't even speak when I'm around her! "Well?" She asked. "Wait what?" fuck. She must've asked me something. "Can I get in?" She asked. Fuck yes. "Of course." I gestured to the water with a smile. She dropped her towel and jumped right in. "OH MY GOD THIS IS FREEZING!" She screamed. "A little chilly I guess." I mocked her. Even when she rolled her eyes she was cute. "Seriously Nash how long have you been in here?" "About 25 minutes." Her eyes widened in fear or confusion. "Well I'm getting in the hot tub because this is not okay. You have fun in your ice bucket." I laughed "Ya know.. I'm feelin' the hot tub too." What am I thinking? She has a boyfriend! My brother! As we stepped in the hot tub she turned the jets on and sat where two were hitting her back. She leaned her head on the ground and put her arms on the side of the tub. "So Nash." "Yes?" "How have you and Hayes been. You don't seem to talk much anymore. Is something wrong?" Yes. He has you and I don't. "No. I don't think so." I lied. "Good. I hope not. You guys have a great relationship. It's cute." We sat there and talked for about an hour and then got our towels and sat on the chairs. "You're pretty cool, Nash." She told me. "Thanks, you're pretty too.. I mean pretty cool. You're pretty cool too, Jackie." She exploded in a fit of laughter. "I'm going to bed. It's almost 1." She told me. Wow, it was. "Yeah me too." She stood up and left the pool area, and I followed.
