Bianca -a couple days later-
i walk into the house and derek looks up at me from the couch.
"we need to talk. before the boys come." he says. i give him a look and set my purse on the coffee table.
"okay? about what?" i ask
"you and Jack." he says. i roll my eyes
"we're just friends-"
"don't give me bullshit bianca. i know you guys aren't. i can't control you and it's already out of my hands." he says. i nod.
"Jack has a bad reputation. he's not the relationship type. he's had one since i've known him and after that he's been a player." he says. i just stare at him
"i'm not telling you to end things or to stop talking to him but please be careful, b. you're fragile and he doesn't care." i nod.
"just wanted to tell you that." he says. i nod again.
"thank you." i say. he nods and i walk away and upstairs. i didn't really take anything he said to heart. Jack seems to really like me. so i'm not worried about it
(couple hours later)
i wake up to someone knocking on my bedroom door.
"come in." i say as i yawn. the door opens and brielle walks in.
"hey babes. you wanna come drink with me? derek won't." she says. i laugh and rub my face.
"yea i'll come." i say. she nods and walks out of my room. i get up and grab a gray sports bra from my dresser and slip it on. i also grab spandex. i'm drinking so i don't really give a shit what i look like. i walk out of my room with my phone tucked in my waist band, throwing my hair in a ponytail. i jog downstairs and skip into the kitchen. i stop and derek looks at me.
"bro." he says. i laugh.
"i forgot." i say as i wave to the boys. he shakes his head.
"here." brielle says and hands me a cup. i take a sip.
"ouuuu this is good." i say
"this fucking alcoholic put like 4 shots in there and it still tastes good." derek says motioning to brielle. she nods takes a drink of hers
"i'm just good like that." she says. i laugh and go lean against the counter. i notice Jack isn't here but i don't say anything. just then johnson's phone rings. he looks at it then at derek. both of them get up and walk out back. i frown and make eye contact with sammy.
"i don't even know." he says.
"what do you mean?" i ask.
"it's nothing b. don't worry about it." brielle says.
"uhhh. kinda hard not to when i didn't say anything and you guys are saying not to worry about it." i say.
"well you don't need to." she says. i roll my eyes. derek walks back in and looks at me
"go to jack's." he says
"why?" i ask.
"how much did you drink of that?" he asks.
"like a sip." i say.
"okay. go to jack's." he says.
"why?" i ask
"just go." he says. i roll my eyes and grab my phone. i walk out of the kitchen and slips my slides on by the front. i grab my keys and wallet.
"be careful." derek calls. i nod and walk out.
i pull up to jack's house and park in the driveway. there's another car on the street but i shrug it off. i get out and lock my car. i walk to the front and knock twice. i then wait. i wait for what feels like forever until i hear the door being unlocked and it pulls open.
"what are you doing here?" Jack asks. i frown
"derek told me to come over." i say. his face drops and he looks up.
"shit." he mumbles.
"what's wrong?" i ask. i hear a car door slam
and i turn around.
"go ahead g. let her in." derek says walking up to me
"what's going on?" i ask.
"let her in. gilinsky." derek says again.
"why are you doing this?" Jack asks.
"because i told you from the beginning. don't fuck with her. and if you did. don't mess up." derek says. i'm just standing there like a little kids utterly confused. i glance back at the other car. o can see a pink fluffy steering wheel cover and a lei hanging from the mirror. i turn back to Jack.
"who's here?" i ask.
"b." he says shaking his head.
"who's here?" i look at derek. he's staring at Jack.
"okay." i push past Jack.
"b-"
"nah let her." i hear derek say. they begin to argue but i ignore them as i walk upstairs and to jack's room. i knock twice and then walk in. the girl stops and looks up at me.
"maria?"
