"It's okay, I'm just going home, I'll be back in two or three hours" I say grabbing my stuff from around the sway, Jaden didn't want me to go, but I have to both put away my stuff from the trip and grab a few changes of new clothes if I'm gonna stay at the sway for the rest of the week.

I got an email from the school, explaining the online school system, and so I guess I just have to get used to it now, because that's what I'm going to be doing the rest of the year. It's hopefully going to make it all easier. I hope.

"Jaden I have to go!!" I say, I at the door and he's pulling my arm back, "Whyyy? I heard there's a new virus!" he says childishly, "Jaden, stop really, if you want come, but i have to go, I'l be right backk!! And I know there's a virus, but it's not a big deal, it didn't hit America at least yet" I say closing the door behind me, he said he didn't want to come but didn't want me go. So... Anyway, my uber is here.

I'm on my door step and I take a deep breath before turning the key, I open the door to a dark empty house, it was all so lifeless. I miss my aunt, but I can live without her I guess you could say. I struggle to bring my suit case upstairs to my room but I manage. I look around to what was now a unfamiliar room, I just feel like I don't spend time here at all. 

I look around through all the polaroids on my picture wall, some with Tayler, others with Payton, Gigi and Natalia, Juliette and even Dre....

 I walk past the pics and open my suit case, I put the dirty clothes in the laundry basket and folded the unused ones to put them back in my wardrobe. I connect my phone to the bluetooth speaker and play my playlist, the first song to come on was Friends by Chase atlantic. It was such a good song, and it was one of the songs I played when Dre and I broke for the first time. I laugh at how innocent and vulnerable I used to be.

I continue walking around and touching my own stuff that I felt so disconnected to. I hated the fact that it felt like I was snooping through someone else's stuff, and it a way, that's what was happening. The next song was Call out my name by the weeknd. Such a great song.

I take out a smaller bag but enough to fit a few outfits and start packing, I go through my clothes and find one of Anthony's hoodies.... Weird. It still smelt just like him. I hug the hoodie like it would change something and put it in my bag to give it back to him, there were like three more hoodies that weren't mine, one was Tayler's, another one was Payton's, and the last one was Mason's... Should I call him? I've been so distant to them. 

Another song started playing, Toxic by Kehlani. I start singing a long to the song and vibe with it. It made me realize how much I needed some time to myself, even if it was just an hour, it still feels great. i feel...free. I look around again and my eyes land on a picture of the day I woke up, the sleepover, with all of my friends... mason, Noah, Brandon, Natalia, Anthony.... I smile as I reminisce the events of that night. 

I put that picture in my phone case and check around to see if I need anything else. I spray myself with some vanilla lace, the smell just gave me comfort, and closed my bedroom door, I walk down the stairs and out the stairs. I look to my right where Liv had parked my car and took the key from where I told her to put it. I hop in and drive to dunkin's, again, I'm of course bringing donuts!

I park in front of the sway and get out of my car, I walk up to the front door and slightly push it knowing it was open. "I'M BACK BITCHESS!!" I scream putting the donuts down on the table. Jaden walks up to me and hugs me from behind. "You're backk" he says in a cute tone, he always acts tough and shit, but deep down he's like this. "I told i'd be back" I say giving him a quick kiss. "Now, who want's donuts?!" I ask loudly, Kio and Josh sprint downstairs once they heard doughnut and took one each.

I see Anthony walk downstairs and I approach him while opening my bag, "Hey I believe this is yours" I say handing him his hoodie, "keep it" he says smiling, "okay.... well I want you to have this" I say getting the picture out of my phone case. I hand it to him and I can tell he remembers perfectly, "This night was perhaps the best moment of my life" he says, "That's what I said" I add, he looks at me and hugs me. I hug him back tighter.

"Come on I got donuts" I say motioning towards the kitchen, he follows me towards the kitchen and we both take a doughnut. I get a call from my aunt, I make a sign telling the guys I was gonna pick it up outside. (Magnolia / Aunt Lyss

  "Hey lyss, What's up?" 

"Hey Mags, so umm, i'm in Italy at the moment and well they just closed the borders, because of the virus, without a warning, and I'm stuck in the country for I don't know how long"

"Oh.. umm. well that's quite a bit to take in, wouldn't you be allowed to leave the country considering you're not a resident?" 

"Sadly no, but I'll try my best to get out of here and come to you, I promise, but if I don't come back soon enough and quarantine hits there, which won't be too long from now, don't stay alone"

"Okay... well in the meantime, please stay safe!" 

"I will, IFLY"

"IFLY"  

I walk back to the kitchen still in a bit of shock, "What happened?" Kio asks when he see's my facial expression, "My aunt is stuck in Italy", "HUH?!how, why? for how long?" Jaden continues, "Well, the virus hit there, they closed down the boarders and basically entered a full blown quarantine, and we don't know for how long" I say in one single breath.

"Well, what are you gonna do?" Josh asks, "There's nothing I can do, but she told me that if the virus hits here and we enter quarantine as well, that I don't stay alone" I say, "Well, you could stay here, you're basically our little sister anyway" Bryce says, I look at jaden with a worried expression, "And that's on incest" Jaden says basically reading my mind and we all burst out laughing. "Well, everyone else's little sister" Griffin continues puttin an arm around my shoulders. 

A part of me wanted to look at Josh, and I know for a fact he was looking at me, but it isn't right, we swore to stop this until we both had broken up. We share a second long glance and we knew exactly what the other thinking about. I push the thought to the back of my head and go back to talking to the rest of the guys.

Until we finally meet~Jaden hosslerWhere stories live. Discover now
