My Brother's Best Friend

Chapter 16

Taylor's POV

I sped off from Jessie's. I couldn't begin to explain how upset I was with Jessie. Honestly, how could she even think to do something like that?? She completely ignores me for almost 2 months and when Jeremy bugs the piss out of me to show up at his house for dinner she tries telling me not to drink!
"Fuck you!" I screamed out punching my steering wheel. Feeling tears rise to the top of my eyes, I released my sadness for the first time.

I pulled over on the side of the road and began to sob harshly into my hands. Why didn't I just stay away? I knew seeing her would leave me upset in someway.
You missed her. That's why.
Hanging my head in defeat I grabbed the bottle in the passenger seat and downed the rest of the alcohol.
Buzz. Buzz.
Looking down on I pulled my phone out only to see Jeremy's number pop up.
"Ugh" groaning I set my phone back down.

Buzz. Buzz.
"You're relentless!!" Picking up my phone I accepted his call.
"What?" I snapped out annoyed.
"Where'd you go Taylor?" His voice was in a low whisper and I could hear the concern in his voice.
"Jay, I'm going home."
"Wait haven't you been dr-"
Cutting him off I hung up the phone rolling my eyes. I put my car in drive as I came off the side off the road.

Suddenly, lights shining onto the driver side. Brakes squealed loudly jolting my attention to my left side. Holding my eyes open wide I saw bright headlights coming closer and closer to my car. Shutting my eyes I felt the impact, heard glass shattering, and metal scrapping together. Opening my eyes I pushed myself off of my steering wheel. Footsteps ran up the my door.

"Are you alright?" A tall stood at my door. Looking up at him I felt my vision go dark.
"Hello? Ma'am? Hello?"

My eyes stung as I came to. Slowly peeling my eyes open, I began to adjust to the bright light surrounding me.
"Shhh. She's waking up." I heard a familiar voice but I couldn't put a face to it just yet. Squinting my eyes I saw three figures hovering at the foot of my bed. Blinking quickly my eyes adjusted and the blurred faces became clear.
"Hey baby. How you feeling?" My dad took my hand in his and kissed it softly.
"Like I got hit by a truck." Laughing gently I attempted to make a joke, but everyone kept a straight face.

Looking around and I noticed Jeremy and Bailey standing there. My heart sunk to my stomach and a pit of sadness sat there. No Jessie?
That's what I deserve telling her I wanted nothing to do with her.
Looking down at my hands I almost felt like crying.
"What's wrong?" My dads concerned blue eyes starred into mine. Shaking him off, I didn't really want to explain everything. Not with Jeremy and Bailey here too.
"I just gotta headache." Rubbing his fingers on my head, my dad knew better. Thankfully he just wasn't going to push the subject here at the hospital.

If Jessie cared about me. She definitely didn't care about me now.
