Chapter 8

So there was Melissa standing in my room wanting to talk about god knows what but I gotta give her a chance, its the least I could I do.

"What do wanna talk about?" I asked casually.

"Listen Jess I heard what you said to dad yesterday and so did mom. I didn't know you felt that way I'm sorry." Ugh this is not something I wanna talk about but I let her continue anyway. "Okay... is that it"

"No Jess," she paused for a moment as if searching for the right words to say. "Jess i'm not who you think I am and not what everyone else would expect from" I let out a sarcastic laugh in return.

"Seriously Melissa spit it out. Are you Supergirl? Or Catwoman? Or perhaps --"

"I dropped out of Med school !" Holy mother of cheesy pizza crust! What?

"Uh... What?" I cannot even comprehend it. Little miss goody two shows Mel dropped out of Med school. "Yes I dropped out, is it really so surprising?" She sat on the bed, anger fuming out of her eyes.

"Well can you tell me why?" I said wide eyed

"It wasn't my thing Jess, and mom and dad were expecting alot from me and then everyone else knew that I went off to Med school and it just got outta hand okay?" She said all in one breath

"Does Mason atleast know?" I figured she would at least tell him since they're together 24/7. It's nice what they have, not all guys are gentlemen like Mason these days.

"Yes, he does" I honestly didn't know what to say after that.

A few hours later I layed exhausted in bed after a rather long talk with Melissa. She said that she was more into starting her own business and studying business rather than becoming a doctor. She wasn't sure how to confront mom and dad but what I still don't understand is why she's pretending everthing was okay and smooth, more importantly how she played it off.

I didn't ask her and I wasn't planning on it, I have enough going on and she's a big girl so I trust that she can handle herself for the time being.

It was now almost dark and mom just got home in time for dinner. I walked downstairs slowly and saw her in the kitchen.

"Hey" I greeted, not sure what else to say after what happened last night.

"Hey, I brought pizza. You're dad isn't coming right now so can you please call Melissa and tell her to come eat" just as I turned around to call Melissa she called my name.

"Jessica..." I turned around and faced her, "Where did you go last night?" I wasn't even in the mood for my crude comments so I just told her. "I spent the night in mine and Ashers old tree house" surprisingly she didn't say anything, she must have noticed that I wasn't up for talking right now.

"Okay sweetie call your sister down for dinner" she smiled warm heartedly at me and I went off to call Melissa.

After a really quiet awkward dinner everyone went off to their room and just stayed there. I went to my room and blasted on Nirvana. My room was far down the hall so no one can actually hear anything.

Just as I was about to open my twitter I heard something smack my windows. I went to check it out and surprise surprise ... it was Ash.

"Hey Jess, I'm coming up, get out of the way." As I moved Ash climbed up the tree and jumped into my window.

"Hey, theres this thing called a front door, you should try knocking sometime and coming in like a normal person" I said sarcastically

"Yeah but wheres the fun in that?!" He said innocently. I just rolled my eyes at him.

"Alright Ash, whats up?" I know what he looks like when he wants something he gives me this look, like the ones someone gives you when they know something is wrong but you don't wanna tell them.

"What I can't visit my best friend?" He said throwing a charming smile.

"Your charisma doesn't work Asher Johnson" I smiled crossing my arms.

"Alright, Sam said you were gonna back down from Operation douche pants" I rolled my eyes at him and sat back at my desk.

"Well I'm not!"

"I knew you wouldn't but,... what do you plan on doing after that, after you get Adam to date you and go oh so crazy about you" he asked while he sat by the window seat on the red bean bag chair.

"Well, I was planning to make him chase me for a while then, I give him a chance. We date, he falls for me. I'm going to get him whipped like you by the 10th date--" he got up and rolled his eyes "For the last time I AM NOT WHIPPED"

"Don't you roll your eyes at me ! That's my thing. Anyway, as I was saying I get him to fall for me within ten dates. Then on the 10th date I tell him everything and infront of everyone just like he did to me"

"Woah Jess ! You're pure evil I didn't think you had it in you. I'm actually a little proud of you, my devil child is growing up and becoming a devil woman" he said and I laughed my ass off.

"Laugh it off, laugh it off"

"Yes thats what I'm doing" I said between laughs. I don't even know why I'm laughing anymore I just am.

"Always a pleasure to make you laugh Miss Riley" he said in a british accent which made me laugh even harder.

"That was thee worst british accent I have ever heard"

So me and Ash just sat there laughing and stalking people on facebook while mocking they're horrible and cliché statuses/pics. Basically just doing best friend stuff. He forced me to make him a sandwich but I didn't care, seeing as I didn't have a brother it was beyond awesome that I had Ash in my life.

It was now mid-night and Ash left the way he came up, actually no he jumped. I wouldn't worry about him though Ash is very athletic and my room wasn't that high.

I checked my phone and saw a message from sexy beast. I really need to change his name.

From: Sexy Beast

Try not to dream about me sweetheart ;) although I can only imagine how hard that would be.

So I decided to text him back, why not have a little fun right.

To: Sexy Beast

You're right its soooo hard. I keep having this dream that your forehead pimple keeps chasing me :(

I bet he won't even reply.

I went to my contacts and changed his name to Buttwipe McStalker. Not really mature but who ever said that I was mature?

I locked my phone and went to bed. I'll deal with him tomorrow, when I'm in a different mood.

A/N heyy guys !! So I attached a pic of Jess and Sam. Idk if it appears or not and sorry for the slow updates although i doubt my story has any fans. I'll try to update more. I'm already writing chapter 9. Pleeeease don't forget to comment, vote and share. And give me feedback or tweet me @ARandomGurl
