Karma Is A Bitch|24

The next few nights I kept dreaming of Corbyn. Or Archie, there was, in my dreams, barely a difference between the two. It were sex dreams about them, but their face barely recognizable. Since Reggie noticed they look so similar, I couldn't stop thinking about it. It's weird, and creepy.

There was a knock on my door when I was eating dinner on my own. I've had a horrible shift today, I started really early. So when I came home around 5 noon, I showered and cooked myself dinner. I jump off of my bar stool and run to my door. I swing it open, seeing Jack, with Jonah. Jonah's eyes are immediately glued to my chest and when I look down, I see I'm not wearing a bra underneath the thin shirt. I blush and see Jack obliviously looking somewhere else than me.
"Come on in guys, Jonah give me your sweater" I say sweet, pecking Jonah's hungry lips after seeing my chest. I pull the still warm sweater over my head and turn around to Jack.
"Hey Ruby" He says enthusiastic and I laugh.
"Hey buddy, how are you doing?" I say, closing my door behind me. I lead them towards my kitchen, where I luckily cleaned. I grab two beers for them and one for myself and lean against my counter.
"How was your flight?" I say, taking a sip of my cold drink.
"It was long, but worth it. I'm planning on seeing so many things the next couple of days" He smiles and I grin.
"Days?" I say and he nods.
"I'm staying for like 6 days, I can't let Corbyn live longer in my house then 6 days!" He laughs and we all do. Corbyn.
"What are you guys going to do tonight? It's friday and I'm off. We could go clubbing?" I say as I place both of my hands on the kitchen island. Jonah glances at Jack, who is nodding repeatedly.
"Yes please omg Jonah please!" Jack whines, making Jonah roll his eyes.
"Please Jonah omg please can we go?" I join Jack and we both are literally on our knees for him. He laughs and sighs dramatically.
"Whatever" He mutters and me and Jack high five.
"Yes bitch, let's get ready, I've wanted to do your curls since the day I met you" I say and grab his hand towards my bedroom. I see him shrugging to Jonah with a dirty smirk on his face, making Jonah roll his eyes again. What a toddler, Jack. He's like the male version of me. With a little craziness from Zach. Tada! ME!

"STOP MOVING!" I shout to Jack, whose hair I'm doing. I'm fully done myself, soft glam it is. Jonah is laying on my bed while Jack sits in front of my makeup mirror. I'm fiddling with his curls, making them perfect for tonight. I see he has his eyes closed, a small smile on his relaxing face.
"Jonah can you grab some liquor from the kitchen, I'm not planning on spending my whole loan on cocktails tonight" I laugh and Jonah snickers.
"Of course I can, three glasses?" He says and I nod happily. When Jonah leaves the room, Jack's eyes spring open and they're pierced on my tight dress.
"Stop playing with my hair" He whispers shyly and I frown.
"Okay, you're done" I say in a weird way but I glance down I see the tent in his now tight black pants. He catches me noticing it, he curses and grabs my arm.
"Don't tell Jonah, he'll literally kill me. He's a beast when it comes to stuff like this" He says and I nod. Fuck, is Jonah overprotective?
"Okay, just go to the bathroom" I say, trying to hold back laughter as I sign to the door. He quickly walks out and I let myself fall on my bed. I close my eyes for a second or two till I feel soft warm hands on my thighs.
"This dress fits you perfect" Jonah's raw voice talks to me. I smile and open my eyes, seeing him halfway on top of me.
"Thanks" I smirk and place my lips on top of his. We kiss each other sweetly when there's a knock on the door.
"Let's go love birds!" Jack yells and I roll my eyes playfully. As we walk out of my bedroom, Jonah grabs on to my butt real quick.
"I need some when we get back" He whispers in my ear as the three of us walk to my front door.
"Fine" I mutter and we all walk to the elevator.

The music is blasting through my ears. I'm dancing to good old '80 club music. Jonah is dancing next to me, I didn't knew he was dancer. Hours pass and I never feel tired. Jonah's hands wrap around my waist from behind and I let my man explore my body. Fuck, I'm wasted.
"Look at Jack, he's gettin some" Jonah screams over the music and points his finger to the corner of the club. There, in a dark spot next to the door of the toilet, is Jack. The girl he's making out with is pretty, but because of the bad lighting, I can't see her face. When Jack pulls away frim her and looks through the club, searching for us, her head turns around.

It's Bella, from Archie.

I shake my head a few times but I get nauseous instantly. I open my eyes and definitely see her, clinging on to Jack.
Don't touch him, go away bitch. Jonah feels I'm tense and turns me around. We can't have regular conversation here in the club, so he just looks at me with an expression on his face. I wave him off and hesitate if I should step towards them. They're making out again. I almost throw up at the sight of her and Jack. Is she cheating on my ex? I grin as I realize she's cheating on Archie with one of my friends. That's right, Jack is my friend. I can't think straight and try to walk towards the two. Let's confront her. The lil bitch. But my stomach suddenly has other plans and before they can see me, I run into the toilet. It's cleaner than I thought it would be, I think while throwing up all my inner liquids. I clean my mouth and look into the mirror, feeling the beat of the music under my feet. I don't know if I threw up because of the overdose alcohol or because I saw my enemy cheat on my ex. Karma is a bitch. I straighten my dress back to normal and fix my hair. I smile cheesy at my reflection and roll my eyes right after. Stupid alcohol. I walk back into the sweating, dancing bodies. I don't see anyone in here. No Jonah, no Jack. Where is everyone. I almost decided to walk out of the club to make a phone call, when I see Jonah. He's screaming. At someone. I walk closer and see Jack next to him, also yelling. When I come closer to the two, I see him. After 2 months I see him again. He's angry and shouting at Jack and Jonah. I see Bella behind Archie, scared but entertained. I step right in between the four people and the yelling stops. You only hear the music, still blasting through our ears.
"Stop yelling at them Archie, your girl cheated on you!" I shout and I see his expression change.
"Do you know them?" He yells back. I smirk. I know them in and out Archie, in and out.
"That's my boyfriend and his friend" I say, trying to be audible. Archie takes a step back, involving Bella. I look into his blue eyes. His blonde hair is messy and he lost weight. Is he unhappy, maybe depressed? My heart breaks slightly seeing him like this. But what worries me the most is the fact he actually looks identical to Corbyn. I swallow and wave him off. He needs to go, i'm doing fine. He quickly makes eye contact and walks away, with Bella on his side. Out of the club, out of my life.
