Shot in the Dark

Chapter Six

"Oh no. You two didn't." Joe groaned. "We did." Colby snickered. "FUCK you two!"

I walked into my room,slamming the door. There was a knock at my door,and Joe walked in. I stood by my bed with my hands on my hips. "Jon told me about some text from you he got. Want to start there?" "All I seem to be doing is FUCKING everything up,Joe! I'm disappointing my dad,Roddy, and you guys. My mom was right. I'm not cut out for this. Or anything." I clenched my jaw. "You are too. And you're no disappointment sweetheart. Now.. About that text?" He raised an eyebrow. "It was meant for Brie. It said exactly how I feel about Jon. And much more. I feel so stupid. And now those idiots want to go ruin a simple thing as two old friends catching up and getting coffee!" I groaned. "I agree with them getting upset about Randy. He's done a lot of us wrong lately,and done a lot of shady things. Back to Jon. He is a hard one to read,but I think he likes you." He smirked. "I want food." "Let's go eat." We walked out into the living room,and I went to the fridge,opening it. There wasn't anything good. I stood there before turning to the guys. "What? You have that look." Seth groaned. I grabbed a piece of paper writing down specific ingredients. "Go to the store and get this stuff please." I handed them the paper. "O-okay." Seth and Roman looked confused. Jon sat down snickering. "What are you laughing at? You're going with them." I glared. Jon groaned getting up.

While they were gone,I got the kitchen set up,and took the pans out that I would need. I quickly jumped in the shower. I put my hair in pig tail braids,and did my make up. I put on short jean shorts,and a tank top that always bunched up and showed my stomach. I was nice and tan,and the jeans showed off my big thigh lion tattoo well. I had a few others as well. I grabbed one of my old ball caps,throwing it on backwards. I turned on the stove top,getting the oil nice and hot. Just then the door opened,and quickly shut behind them. I turned around,meeting them with the bags. "Thank you." They kind of stared. "Jaws up,boys." I smiled, turning away. I got started on dinner. I was making chicken parm. As soon as I was done with a dish,I would wash it and put it away so the kitchen was clean when we ate. Jon came over trying to dip his finger in the sauce. I smacked his hand away with a smirk. I grabbed a spoon,turning towards him. "Open." I whispered. He looked me in the eyes as I fed him a spoon full of my homemade spaghetti sauce. I turned away,finishing up dinner. "Good,yeah?" "Amazing,Lex." I flashed him a smile,as I dished up our plates. "Fellas,food." I threw some garlic bread on their plates as they came and got it. I sat on the counter eating my food,watching them eat. When we were all done,I started cleaning the dishes. "I got this,princess. You go sit." Jon whispered in my ear as his hands fell to my hips. I took in a sharp breath,and nodded,going to the opposite side of the kitchen,and sitting criss cross on the counter,playing on my phone. Seth and Roman came to help Jon clean up. I smiled,snapping a picture,and headed right for twitter. "God sure did bless me with three amazing best friends."

Jon walked over to me pulling me off the counter. "We're going out tonight. Care to join?" He smiled. "Sure. Let me get my shoes on,and my wallet." I slipped on some ankle socks,and some converse. I slipped my debit card,and my ID into the case of my phone. "I'm ready." "You sure you want to go like that?" Jon raised an eyebrow. "Is there something wrong with the way I'm dressed?" I asked. "No." He mumbled. "Thought so." I walked out the door,with the guys behind me. We walked into the bar and waited our turn for drinks. "You sexy bitch!" Nikki and Brie smiled,smacking my butt. "Hey ladies." I smirked. Jon handed me a drink, and walked off with the guys. I ended our conversation and stood at the bar,scanning the room. "Hey cutie. My name is Todd. Care to dance?" I rolled my eyes as I smiled. "I'm not really looking for anyone. I'm just here to have a fun time,and drink." I smirked. "So you have a boyfriend then?" He asked,leaning up against the bar. "Something like that." I smirked. I caught Jon's eye from across the room,as I smiled at this guys question. He instantly got mad. I took a deep breath,and tried to continue my night. A few hours later,Colby came to get me. He almost looked sad. "Come on,short stack. Time to go." He mumbled. "Who pissed in your corner flakes?" I slurred,stumbling. Colby caught me,sighing. "You're drunk. Perfect." He rolled his eyes,as he helped me walked out of the door. I was met by Joe,Jon,and some tramp glued to his side. We got into the cab and got back to our hotel. "Colby,get me my bag." I ordered. "You're not going anywhere." He demanded. "Colby,now." My voice broke. He looked at me,and a tear fell down my cheek. He came out a little bit later with my things. I knocked on Nikki and Brie's door and was let in without question. I knew I was safe until morning.
