Living Loving Maid

Chapter 29

Jimmy's POV

Once Jimmy was out of his room, he saw Charlotte making tea in the kitchen. Instantly, Jimmy's heart began to sink and he started realizing the bad side of telling her that he was going to America. He tried to get his act together and headed over to her.

"I'm going to America."

Charlotte turned around. "Again, already?" She asked. "You've only been home for not that long, Jimmy. Why are you leaving again already?"

Jimmy took a deep breath. "Well, I—" He began, only to be cut short by Charlotte.

"Wait a second." Charlotte said. "Hailey lives in America, doesn't she? Are you going back to America just to see her again?"

Jimmy slowly nodded. "Actually, yes. I am."

Charlotte sighed. "Jimmy, can I tell you something?"

Jimmy felt his heart skip a beat, but not in a good way. He began to feel nervous.

"Sure. What is it?"

Somewhat of a smile began to form on Charlotte's face, much to Jimmy's relief and confusion.

"Jimmy, Hailey seems like a really nice girl." Charlotte said. "She could probably give you what I couldn't. If you want to really be with her, go ahead."

"Wait, what?" Jimmy asked. "You're okay with this?"

Charlotte shrugged. "Do what you want. I don't care anymore." She said. "Go ahead and live with her if you want. I can handle taking care of Scarlet by myself and abandon the world of modelling."

Jimmy raised an eyebrow. "Charlotte, are you sure?"

Charlotte nodded. "Do what makes you feel the happiest, Jimmy. If Hailey makes you the happiest, go with her. She seems like a great person, so if you break her heart," She replied. "you'll have me to deal with."

Is she serious?

Jimmy didn't expect Charlotte's reaction at all. He had expected her to be angry, but instead, she seemed completely fine with the whole thing.

"What about Scarlet?" He asked. "I know you might be taking care of her by yourself, but..."

Charlotte smiled again. "I'll manage." She answered.

Jimmy managed a slight smile. "Well, I guess I'll be on my way then. I'll probably pay a visit here and there." He said. "I don't want to not be able to see Scarlet at all."

"I'm going to miss you, Jimmy."

"I'm going to miss you too."

Hailey's POV

Hailey had expected this Monday to go worse, and it wasn't as bad as she expected. The only thing that really happened were some girls snickering to each other and calling Hailey a "groupie" or a "slut". Hailey didn't pay attention to what they all said, and considered them jealous. Then, there were the people who treated Hailey like she was, in Kevin's words, the Queen of England.

As Hailey walked in the hallways to get to her locker to get her books for her next class, she heard a voice, and definitely not a kind one.

"Hey Hailey!"

Hailey turned around.

"How many rockstars have you slept with? Do you have their names on your body? Did they autograph your underwear?"

Hailey began to feel angry and wanted to fire back, but she resisted the urge. She had a feeling that if there were more people who hopped on the name-calling train, or if the name-calling wouldn't stop, she would be known as the "school groupie". Hailey wouldn't care, though. Instead, she would just act like everything was normal, and that nothing was wrong.

Hailey got the books she needed and instantly headed to the next class like nothing had happened. Being a senior in high school wasn't that bad for her so far, unlike how it used to be at the start of the year. Hailey just figured that as long as she had Rowan by her side, she would be okay. School was starting to become a distraction for her, and was causing her to not constantly think about Jimmy, but here and there, he would pop into her mind.

School seemed to have ended quicker than she thought, and when she was heading out of the school, she saw Rowan sitting on one of the steps. "Hey, Rowan." Hailey said, heading over to her.

Rowan looked up at Hailey and smiled. "Hey, Hailey. How was today?"

Hailey shrugged. "Okay, I guess, aside from a few jealous girls calling me a groupie and other names."

Rowan rolled her eyes. "They're definitely jealous." She said, and then she smirked. "I bet they're having sexual dreams about Jimmy Page in their sleep, as well as other rockstars, I guarantee."

Hailey giggled. "Yea, probably."

Rowan and Hailey both noticed a car show up.

"Oh, that's my mom." Rowan said, getting up. "See you soon, Hailey."

Hailey waved goodbye to Rowan before getting her bike and deciding to head home.

Hailey had done all of her homework first-thing when she got home, and it payed off. When she was done, she decided to spend her time drawing. She took some drawing paper and started to draw Roger McGuinn, who was part of one of her favorite bands, the Byrds. While she was in the middle of drawing, she heard her phone ring. Sighing, Hailey went to pick it up.

It was Jimmy again.

"Hey Jimmy." Hailey said. "You seem happy."

"I'm at this hotel in England." Jimmy explained. "I'll be staying here briefly, then I'm heading to America."

America?

Instantly, Hailey's heart leapt. Could that mean she'd be able to see Jimmy again?

"Where to in America?"

"I don't know." Jimmy answered. "Maybe somewhere forest-y. I like places like that."

"It'd be nice if you were to come to California." Hailey said. "You don't have to, though."

"I'm not sure if I'll take a visit in California. Anyways, I'm just coming to America to take a break from England."

Hailey slowly nodded. "Cool." She said. "I've just been sitting here drawing."

"Sounds fun."

"It's not really fun unless I'm actually enjoying it, which I am."

"Well, I have to go to sleep now. It's pretty late here."

"Goodnight, Jimmy."

Once Jimmy hung up, Hailey returned to focusing on her drawing, and by the time she was done, it was beginning to get late. She put her drawing away and went to make herself something to eat, and when she had finished eating, she went to her room, put on her pajamas, and went to sleep.

Charlotte and Jimmy actually remained together until 1982, but since this is a fanfiction (therefore doesn't have to be 100% historically accurate or accurate), I decided to change things up a bit to make the plot more interesting I guess or help it progress

THE END IS NEARRRR
