On The Run

I slowly opened my eyes and looked at Adam, then Jackson. I moved his hand to uncover a medium sized red hickey.

"Who, when, where, and why?" I asked sternly
"Baby it's not what you think."
"Answer me."

Adam slowly backed away moving to the other side of the jacuzzi.

"Mollie, like an hour ago, in the bathroom, and I don't know she was drunk and she kissed me and gave me this and yeah it wasn't what you think."
I laughed. "She kissed you?" With a mad look.
"Oh my god Tati just shut up it's nothing." He said getting up and leaving the jacuzzi.

I was used to this. He would make out with some girl and then I'd find out and he always says it meant nothing. But I still love him. It's times like these where I don't know what to do.
I looked off to the side, many were leaving. I turned around and got my phone and checked the time. It was a little after one. A tear slowly rolled down my face. Adam moved over closer to me.

"Why do you keep letting him hurt you?"
I was silent for a second. "I don't know. I love him. He's my first real love."
"He treats you like garbage. To him, you're just a chore that sucks his dick."
"Thanks." I said standing up and turning about to go out.

Adam pulled my leg making me fall back in the water.

"I didn't mean it like that and you know that."
"Whatever." I said rolling my eyes and sitting down, away from him.
"Are we going to talk about it?" He asked after a few seconds
"Talk about?" I said confused
"Tatiana, we were an inch away from kissing a few hours ago. Don't act dumb."
"Oh that? That was nothing. I'm with Jackson and always will be."
"You're so oblivious." He said getting out and walking away.

I didn't go after him, nor did I want to. I wasn't oblivious, was I? I climbed out about an hour later and wrapped my towel around my body. I went inside the house. Mostly everyone was gone but there was a huge mess. A mess I knew we would all have to clean up tomorrow. I went upstairs and into the bathroom to get a shower. I thought about Adam. He had never done this before, there were times I thought he didn't care about me. I think of him as my brother, I mean I think. But I'm in love with Jackson and he's in love with me.

I washed my body and deep conditioned my short black hair. When I was done I brushed my teeth and walked down the hall. I got to Jackson's door and I was about to touch the handle when I heard Adams door open behind me. I turned around and he was standing in the door way with one hand on his doorknob. He looked uncomfortable.

"I wouldn't go in there if I were you."
