"Hi." I said nervously.

Jess.

"Hey babe." Jess pushed past me and gave Oliver a hug.

I never knew much about Jess and Ashton's relationship. I wouldn't have known how much of a threat Jess would've been not only to me but to Oliver.

"Hey Jess." Oliver and Jess started making out right in front of me. I almost gagged.

Jess broke from the kiss and turned to me.

"You and Ashton have been moving fast eh?" she gestured to my belly and moved into the kitchen.

She was still as I remembered.

"Hey Bay, this is-"

"Jess. I know." I said curtly. Shooting her a glare.

All three of them stared at us confused.

"She is Ashton's ex." I explained before turning away and heading back to my room.

I didn't want to deal with Jess or their date. I really wanted to call Ashton and tell him about Jess but that would be..

"Bay wait." Elliot called.

"Bay." I continued walking to my room and Elliot followed.

"Bay, Jess is not all that bad."

"Really? How would you know?" I folded my arms across my chest.

"Because I have seen her." Elliot continued.

I remained silent.

"How would you know how bad she is?" He asked.

"Look I don't know what happened between Ash and her but I know it wouldn't be good." I sighed.

"Well that isn't something you have to worry about. She's Ashton's ex!" Elliot said again.

"Yeah but-"

"Give her a chance." Elliot pleads.

I stared back at him in uncertainty. I'd be happy to give her a damned chance if she would give me one reason to.

She definitely has an ulterior motive to this and I'm afraid to stick around for it.

"Fine." I sighed uncertainly.

Elliot nodded and walked out the room to join his friends.

I stared at the phone on my bed, the urge to call Ashton growing with every second that passes. I need to tell him about Jess.

What if he knows something that I don't? What if he knows what she is up to?

Or am I just being paranoid? She could be in love with Oliver and she may be happy now. This could all just be me thinking too much.

Sometimes the world is way too confusing. You are so unsure of the truth and you have to rely on your limited imagination to put the pieces of the complicated puzzle together.

"Bay Quinn." Jess' voice pierced through the atmosphere like broken glass. I cringed at the thought of Jess.

"Hey Jess." I attempted to be friendly.

"I just wanted you to know that I'm happy for you and Ashton. You guys must be so happy together." She smiled. Her voice filled with sarcasm.

It scared me.

"We aren't really together." I admitted nervously.

"Oh so the baby..."

"It's his but...we aren't together." I continued. Was I telling her too much?

A little too much could land me in trouble.

"Calum?" she asked again.

I shook my head.

"I know you must be confused as to why I'm here. It could all be a mere coincidence, I remind you."

"Yeah but I definitely have my suspicions. You can't blame me." I shifted uncomfortably.

"Of course I don't." she said, shaking her head.

I forced a smile at her awkwardly.

"But if I were you, I'd watch my back." she glared at me for a while before walking off, flipping her hair over her shoulders.

I blinked in surprise. What the hell?

-------

"She told me to watch my back!" I exclaimed. Cassidy and Jess had left, Oliver is sleeping over.

After three hours of being alone in my room, I called Luke up.

"She's planning on you!" Luke shouted.

"I know!"

"I have to tell Ashton." Luke rambled.I heard shuffling in the background.

"No no no no you won't. You can't. You hear me Hemmings?" I warned.

"Jess might hurt you! Or maybe even the baby!" Luke cautioned. I sighed. No.

"You know, maybe I was just being paranoid! Maybe it was just me thinking too much." I brushed it off.

...

"Please?" I pleaded again.

"Okay. But if anything happens, you call me. You got me?"

"Okay." I replied.

"I got to go. Sleep well."

I was about to hang up when Luke shouted again.

"Wait wait! I got to ask you something." he said hesitantly.

I waited silently for his question.

"How...how was Cassidy?" Luke asked.

"Luke." I sighed.

"No please. I just want to know." He said nervously.

"She's fine. "

"That's good."

"Luke, you have to get over her. Cass, she-"

"She's with Elliot . Yeah I know." Luke cut in bitterly.

"Yeah."

"Goodnight Bay. Sleep well."

"You too." I sighed and hung up the phone. I'm so stupid.

I lay down on my bed with a pang in my chest. I was scared, worried sick about Jess.

Luke was right.

Jess could hurt Ansel.
