*Jess's POV*

"Hi, um 6 Carsti street, please" I said to the driver as I sat down in my seat next to Morgan. The cab slowly advanced out of the street and sped off down the road towards Luc's house. 

"So what did you get him?" Morgs asked as she turned to look at me, "I got him a new watch and some new tennis shoes" as he was a tennis player.

"Oh that's nice, I just got him a shirt....will that be ok" she snickered. "Uh yeh I mean he shouldn't care to much, I guess".

"That's good" she laughed and looked out the window not making anymore conversation. Lucas and I had been together for about a year now. We met at a friends college graduation party and instantly hit off. I don't really know if I love him or not, I just feel as though he has been a bit distant recently and doesn't care that much. 

I mean, I just got asked to design a clothing line for London Fashion week. When I told him he basically just shrugged and said congrats.

The cab pulled up against the curb Morgs got out a waited as I gave the money to the cab driver. "I'll pay for the cab on the way back" she smiled as she put her arm around me briefly before removing it as though it was a little hug. "You ready?" she asked consolingly. I was a little nervous I was never into big parties and the way Lucas has been acting lately has made my feel quite off. 

"Morgan Tint and Jessica Pratten" I said to the man as he checked we were on the list and let us through. "Does he really need to have our names checked off for his birthday party" she laughed obnoxiously. 

"I never said he used his money wisely" I shrugged before Lucas came into sight. 

"Hey babe" Lucas said as he kissed me on the lips, "Happy birthday, Luc" I said handing him his present before pulling him in for a hug. 

"Hi Morgan, how are you?" He asked releasing me and giving Morgs a small hug. "Yeh good, you guys?" he asked lightly. "Fine thanks" I smiled. 

"Ok well I'm going to go have a few drinks, want anything girls?" 

"Yes please, a beer", "and a coke" I added to Morgans beer that she had requested. 

"Kay then" he said and walked off the the kitchen. 

- - - 

I had a clear vision of the kitchen, where Luc had gone to get our drinks. I noticed he was talking to another girl with mid length dark brown hair. I swear I had seen her before... they appeared a little close. I noticed he had Morgan and I's drinks in his hands. He kissed the girl on the forehead and started heading my way, What. The. Fuck. 

"Here you go" Lucas said eyeing me down as he handed Morgan and I our drinks. 

"Thanks Luc" Morgs quipped happily, obviously taking note of my sudden strange mood. "I'm going to go talk to someone, cya Jess". 

"Bye Morgs". "Whats up with u" Lucas asked quit rudely. 

"Excuse me" I said taken back " I just saw you kiss a girl and you were pretty close". 

"Oh my god are you kidding me Jess" he said narrowing his eyes at me. "Well not really, what the hell is going on, you've been acting so weird lately and you have hardly been paying any attention to me and you didn't even care about me being in the fucking London Fashion Week" I almost yelled. 

"Woah Jess chill" he laughed it off. 

"Uhhh Lucas, your actually pissing me off, who is she and why are you acting so weird?" I said, tears threatening to spill. 

"Jessie, let me explain" he said taking my arm and leading me out to the deck, sliding the door shut behind him. 

"She's just an old friend, and I hadn't seen her in a while, that's why I invited her here and I guess I just got a bit excited and I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you" He sighed. 

I didn't really know what to think or whether he was actually telling the truth because he had still been acting weirdly and that concerned me. I took in a deep breath, "well ok, I'm sorry I just jumped into conclusions and thought you were more than friends and I'm also sorry that I probably pissed you off on your 21st birthday party, that would suck" I said looking down at my shoe. 

"Yeh it does suck, but all good, yeh?" 

Dickhead. 

"Yeh, I guess, what is her name?", "Kendall, Kendall Jenner" he smirked, what is he trying to annoy me now. Kendall Jenner are you kidding me, wow dude, just wow. (A/N I have nothing against Kendall, Jess just doesn't like Kendall very much in the story).

"You know her?" he asked curiously, "well yeh she's a model so Morgan knows her and I've designed clothes that she has worn on the runway". 

"Oh sweet" he smiled, something just caught his attention over my shoulder. "Um- I've gotta go say hi to other guests... bye Jessica". He smiled as best as he could before he kissed me on the lips and left.

- - -

I had already had about 3 drinks and I knew I probably shouldn't have anymore. "Morgan" I yelled in her direction, she turned to look at me "Can you call a cab?"

"Yeh, good idea its getting late" she replied. "I'm going to say goodbye to Lucas meet me out the front" I nodded toward the direction he was possibly was in.

I couldn't find Luc on the bottom floor of his house anywhere and I had been looking for about 5 minutes, and his house isn't even that big. I decided to go look on the top floor, I was his girlfriend so I should be allowed to anyway. 

I heard noises coming from the guest room on the second floor so I walked towards the door, it was unlocked so I pushed it open

"WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON" I screamed as I saw Lucas and Kendall naked on top of one another in the bed. 

"Oh my god, Jess, it's not what it looks like" he said way to quickly. 

"Oh bullshit, that's what everyone says" I yelled tears falling down my cheeks. "Please Jessica".  

"No Luc, leave me the fuck alone" I yelled shaking my head furiously storming out of the room and out towards the front of the house were Morgan would be. 

"JESSICA, JESS PRATTEN" I heard a deep voice yelling from behind me, I spun around to find a frazzled looking Lucas running towards me. 

"I said leave me alone" I kept my voice low and shallow not daring to look at him. "Please Jess, please, please just don't leave me, I'm so so so sorry, please god just um call me in the morning, we need to talk about this" he replied emotionless. 

"Luc- actually you know what, your a dickhead, stay away from me, I don't deserve someone as low as you and don't even think about calling me or coming near me. We are so done and I hope you can get that through your head" I grumbled raising my tone, glaring at him, with tears streaming down my cheeks. 

I ran off not giving Lucas the time to speak back or follow me. 

"Jess, Jess are you ok, oh my god, sweetie, whats wrong?" Megan spoke quickly and concerned as I sat down next to her in back seat of the cab. "Please just let me think- I'll talk to you when we get home" I said with even more tears falling down now. 

"Ok- It will be ok, I promise, I can help you through it" she assured me. "Thanks Morgs, love you" I hiccuped, hugging her.
