The Other World

Chapter Twenty-Six: It's Home Time

Ashlee's POV
Damon carried Joyce in and placed her on his couch. Jordon carried in Olivia and put her on the recliner. Damon put a pillow under Joyce's head and moved her hair out her face.
If only a guy was that sweet to me...
Joyce is so lucky, to have two guys chase her. What about me? Where is my love story? I had a crush on Damon, that didn't work. Well....that's it but still! I'm not given many options!
"Ashlee and Jordon, can you go upstairs in my room and grab some medicine for them" Damon ask us. I don't know why it's a two-person job, but we nod yes anyway. We make our way upstairs which is like running a marathon.
God, I'm unfit. Skinny but unfit!
"Which one is his room," Jordon asks me as if I somehow know. I look at him with a "I don't know" look. He rolls his misty light blue eyes at me. "Maybe...this one?" Jordon suggest, pointing to a door with a do not enter sign.
Yeah...let's enter the door that tells us not to. Because that's the best idea
"I'm pretty sure, it says "do not enter"" I say with attitude. He rolls his dreamy eyes at me again and make his way to the door. He opens it and pushes it wide open. I flick the switch and it looks like his room. It has the essentials, a bed, desk, dresser and posters.
"Told you so" Jordon says as we walk in the room.
"Whatever" I say flicking my hair. He laughs at me for some reason.
"You look cute when you all, girly and meany" he says with a laugh.
Did he just call me cute?!
I smile, trying not to read into what he just said. I don't want any unwanted drama. We have enough with that downstairs. I saw Olivia all over Jordon, like bitch clearly flirting. We search the room for medicine and all I found was books and gum.
"If we find his p-" Jordon goes to say but I stop him before he does.
"No! Don't even" I warn him. He laughs and roll my eyes at how immature he is.
Boys!!!
"So anything happening between you and Ryan?" Jordon causally brings up. Ryan was super good looking and nice but him being a werewolf tick him off my list. But now, I kinda don't care. But I haven't seen him since so, I guess I missed my shot.
"Nope, haven't talked to him since the beach" I tell him.
"But he's been with us the last three days" he says.
I know! He has been dodging me!
"I know, it's weird" it's all I say. When Joyce wakes up, imma vent to her like crazy.
"FOUND IT" He says. He jumps on Damon's bed and lifts it in the air like a trophy.
"Boys" I say while sighs at how immature he can be.

Joyce's POV
I wake up and slowly open my eyes, the bright light stings my eyes. I close them again in pain and I squint my eyes and look around the room. I see Jordon at the end of the couch and Ashlee standing next to him. Ace is standing next to the door with Luke, who seems to be having a serious conversation. Ryan is looking at the window probably looking if we got followed. I spot a girl on one of the recliners next to the couch, but I don't know who she is. I look around the room and I realize we are in Damon's living room. I slowly sit up, while closing my eyes in pain. Ashlee and Jordon eyes open wide in shock and drop to my side.
"Are you okay?" Jordon ask me. I look at him and nod yes, I cross my legs over and rub my head in pain.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Do you have any-?" I go to ask them. But, I get cut off by someone sticking something in my mouth. Not knowing who just put it in my mouth, I look behind me and see Damon. He walks in front of me and hands me some water.
"Swallow it" he orders. I look at him and give him a questioning look. Since I have no idea what he just put in my mouth. "It medicine" He explains. I swallow since the horrid taste started to make me sick.
"Yuck" I state, I drink some water to wash away the taste. He smiles at how childish I am.
"I'm so glad you're okay," he says with the most sympathetic smile.
"I can't BELIEVE! I, your best friend had to be told by these two that you're a werewolf!" She says. I smile at how dramatic she is.
"Sorry, forgot," I say shrugging it off.
"Oh, my bad. You forgot" she says sarcastically. I hear movement behind them, coming from the unknown girl.
"Who is the new girl?" I asked while gesturing to her. She is fast asleep and has bruises and cuts all over her.
"All we know is her name is Olivia. She passed out before we could ask any more questions" Jordon tells me.
"So...she was stuck down there too?" I ask, remembering that terrible place.
Yeah, from the looks of her wounds...she was down there longer than you" Ashlee tells me. I feel sorry for anyone that was stuck down there. I can't even think of what she went through, probably worse than I did. I look over at her and wonder if she knows who did that to us? and why?
"Did you run into Max?" I ask. That backstabbing, two-face snake. I can't believe he was in on it the whole time!
"Who?" Damon ask.
"Max, he was a guy that was hypnotized to act like Jordon and somehow looked like him too. But, in the end, he was a bad guy" I explain to them. "Oh, and I had a fun time learning what wolfbane is," I say sarcastically. Damon gives a look like he's sorry I had to learn that way. The other two look like they don't know what it is.
"I didn't see anyone down there but Olivia and you" Jordon tells me.
"Whats wolfbane?" Ashlee ask. Damon gives me a look to keep quiet. So, I keep quiet and change the topic.
"How could he hypnotize someone and change there looks," I ask them all. Ace steps forwards and crouches in front of me.
"Well, a vampire can compel people and since you were high on wolfbane...your eyes let you believe whatever you wanted," He tells me.
"Max...he was a warlock," I tell Ace. Ace looks at Luke and gives him a concerned look.
"He must of put the Spell up, but why?" Luke says, drifting away in thought.
"Did you catch his last name?" Ace asks me.
"No. Max could be a fake name anyway," I say. Ace gets up and walks over to Luke. They share a few whispers and looks to each other.
