You Took Me In As One

Chapter 21

" What about?" I questioned Turing off the tv. He took a seat beside me and I turned to face him. Sitting crossed legged.

" What's bothering you?" He asked looking up. " What do you mean? Nothing is." I reply fiddling with the hem of my shirt. " I know that's not true."

" There is nothing." I say agin. He sighed. " Jordan, I know about you cuts." He said quickly.

" I-I uh- um-" I stutter. I looked down. I was trying my best not to cry. I look up at him with tears surfacing. " H-H-How?" I though I was doing a good job of keeping them hidden.

" I seen when you were asleep in the hospital." He replied moving closest to me. I didn't know what to say. The tears just started to fall down my cheeks as I started to sob.

Ross broth me into a bone cursing hug. He ran his hand through my hair, trying to get me to stop. " Why did you do it?" He asked. " I didn't know what else to to." I said in between sobs.

" What do you mean?" He asked. I pulled away to wipe away my tears. I ran my hand through my wavy blonde hair as I sighed. " I don't want to talk about it." I said closing my eyes.

" But it would help." He tried to convince me, but I wasn't going to tell him. " Okay, but just so you know, we will always be here for you." He said walking away.

I laid back down as Riker came into the room with Ellington. " Oh sorry, we didn't know you were in-" I cut him off. " It's fine." I sit up and cross my legs again. " You sure?" He asked.

I nodded my head. " Thanks." He smiled as he took a seat beside me and Ellington to my left. " Hey flower, how you felling?" Ellington asked. He gave me that nick name the day we left for tour.

" Better." I said. " You wanna play?" He asked handing me a remote. " What are we playing?" I took the remote from him and turned my focus to the tv.

" Call of duty. Mw3" Riker answered. " we'll, your going down boys, because I'm a pro." I smiled. Ellington smirked at me. " We'll lets see about that." He challenged.

The game started, and the first person I shot, was Riker. He pouted as I smirked. I found Ellington soon after and got a head shot. " Ha ha." I pointed at him. But that was a bad mistake because Riker had shot me.

" Yes!" He got up and did a dance. " Oh hush! It was just one kill."

After he game ended. I came out with the most kills. I had 34, Riker had 27 and Ellington had 26. " How can a little girl like you be so violent?" Ellington asked huddling in a ball rocking back and forth pretending to be scared.

" Just sleep with one eye open tonight." I joked. Ellington was fast out the door and Riker stayed back with me. " But seriously, how do you do it?" He asked.

I shrugged. " I played it a lot with the guys in my adoption centre." " Well, your really good. You need to teach me." He said.

" Of corse. " I sighed. " And thank you for making me fell better. I appreciate it." I said walking out. " No problem kiddo." He ruffled my hair. I glared at him.

He laughed then walked off. I went and sat myself beside Ross. He was playing a game on his phone. He then died. " All you had to do was double jump." He looked down at me.

" Okay, miss know it all, let's we you play." He smirked. But he didn't know what's was coming. " Dude! I wouldn't let her!" Ratliff screamed from the bunks. I couldn't help bit laugh.

I pressed play and I bet his high score. He looked pretty amazed. "How did you do that?" He asked grabbing the phone and looking at the score. " I told you!" Ratliff screamed again.

" Oh hush!" I yell.
