Amber pov:
Yawning, I stretched myself out. I glanced over at my alarm clock, it was 9 in the morning. Sitting up i looked in the mirror on my vanity and almost freaked out. MY HAIR WAS FUCKING BLACK! Oh wait... I vaguely remember dying it last night? Oh well, I liked it anyways.
Standing up I walked over to my closet and looked for something to wear. Eventually I settled on dark blue jeans and a "Fuck you and your fucking bubble mint" shirt. Quickly realising that I smelled I decided to take a shower. Stripping down I let the warm water soothe my tense muscles. Halfway through rubbing my strawberry scented shampoo into my hair I remembered I had gone swimming yesterday. This meant I had to use my special chlorine fighting shampoo and conditioner, yay!
When I was done with that shaved and washed my body. Letting the water soak my sore muscles for a couple more minutes I finally got out. Getting dressed I also grabbed a pair of black vans and put my phone on some speakers. Scrolling through my music I picked Pierce The Veil, I missed my mexicore(if you get that your boss!). As "Hell Above" started to play I started to do my makeup. Some eyeliner, mascara and coverup. Honestly I didn't wear a lot of makeup at all. Quickly running a comb through my newly black hair I decided to just leave it all natural today. Grabbing my phone I finally headed downstairs.
As I walked the hallway I heard that the to was on unusually loud? It sounded like the guys on tv weren't very happy, Andy was probally watching batman again. But as I neared the stairs I realised that it wasn't the television, it was Ashley and Andy. They were fighting over something, I had never seen them fight before. They were always so perfect and right before. "Maybe if you didn't come home drunk every other morning we wouldn't have this problem! We have a kid now Ashley" Andy screamed at Ashley. Oh god. The memories started flooding back. My dad fighting my mom and beating her. Beating my whole family. Beating me. I couldn't a stand this anymore, I had to get out of her. Calling the first person I thought of, Jinxx.
I knew he would be here, he wasn't doing anything today and he knew about my past with my family. "Hey, Andy and Ashley are fighting for the first time. Bringing back bad memories, you know? Can you come and get me" I texted praying he was awake. Worse comes to worst I just text Jake or Cc. A couple minutes later Jinxx texted back "Yeah, don't worry. Just driving by there so I should be there in like 2 min". I let out a breath of relief. Sitting on the stairs I realised Andy and Ash still hadn't noticed me, that hurt a little. They were both still yelling at each other about something, I was trying to block it out so I didn't really notice what exactly. Jinxx texted me "I'm waiting outside sweetie".
"K" I quickly texted back and stood up from the stair I had been sitting on. Trying to stay out of sight I made my way through the living room and into the kitchen. In the kitchen I left a note that said "I'm at Jinxxs, don't worry! Love Amber" so when Ash and Andy stopped fighting they would know where I was and that I was ok. Making my way outside I grabbed some cash from the table and a pair of earbuds and phone charger. You never know, right? Jinxx was sitting in the driveway in his black-shocker, I know- SUV. Climbing in the passenger seat I saw him looking at me nervously. "Look, in fine! Just seeing them fighting brought back some bad memories, ok?" I said looking him in the eye. I noticed it looked like Jinxx had tears in his eyes and it looked like, he had been crying? "Jinxx what's wrong? If this is a bad time I can stay here or call someone else" I said, I didn't want to be a burden. "No, don't worry. This is actually just what I needed" he said giving a weak smile.
That wasn't enough though. I needed to know what was wrong! "Jinxx what happened" I asked worried as he pulled out of the driveway and onto the highway. His and Sammis house was only a couple minutes away so we should be there soon. "Amber... Me and Sammi broke up" he said tears rolling freely down his face. Shocked, I gasped. Never before had I seen Jinxx in such a vulnerable and emotional state, this must be hard for him. "Oh Jinxx, you will find someone better out there! A great girl that will love you" I said sincerely, Jinxx was a great guy that deserved a great girl. "Amber, you don't get it! I broke up with Sammi" Jinxx said smashing his hand down on the dashboard. A little surprised by his small act of violence I chose my next words carefully. "Jinxx if you guys were meant to be you would be together. It's better for both of you" I said, I'm sure Jinxx had a good reason to break up with Sammi. He smiled "Thanks Amber, you always know what to say". It made me happy knowing I could help Jinxx through this hard time.
We pulled into Jinxxs driveway and I grinned. This was gonna be fun, I could tell! "Jeremy are you ready to start some SHIT!" I yelled using his real name knowing he hates it! He groaned and shook his head. I heard him mumble something that sounded like "What the hell did I get myself into". He had no freakin idea! I ended up talking Jinxx into making cupcakes with me, chocolate of course! Just as we finished putting the cupcakes in the oven Jinxxs phone started to ring. We both knew who it was, Andy and Ashley. Jinxx walked over and answered his phone. It sounded like Andy, they both talked for a little while well I went in the other room and started to flip through channels. Honestly I wasn't in the mood to talk to either Andy or Ashley after they were completely oblivious to me this morning. Settling on a documentary on prison tattoos I made myself comfy, not even noticing Jinxx walking in the room. "Ok, so Andy said you can stay till the cupcakes are done and then maybe hang out a bit and then head home" he said plopping himself down on the couch next to me. I simply nodded in reply. "Look Amber you can't be mad at them for fighting! That's how relationships work." Jinxx said noticing my attitude. Groaning I shook my head.
"Jinxx I'm not mad at them for fighting, trust me! It's just that I say on those steps for 10 minutes today and left the house and no one noticed" I said tears coming to my eyes. Jinxx sighed and reached in embracing me. When Jinxx hugged me I felt something spark inside of me, hugging him made me feel warm and safe. It felt better then any hug I had ever felt, even with Alex. This wasn't okay, Jinxx was part of my dads band and he was older then me. He would never like a girl like me, some stupid 16 year old! Jinxx was 23, he would never fall for me! Plus it was illegal. This feeling I got from Jinxx though, it couldn't be ignored! Sighing I pulled away, I couldn't let this go any farther. Now I found myself looking into Jinxx's beautiful brown eyes. He looked like he was about to say something but the oven timer went off. THE CUPCAKES WERE DONE! Me and Jinxx both got up and headed to the kitchen. We took the cupcakes out and let them cool for a little while, just talking about random shit. Once again I couldn't help notice how perfect Jinxx looked whenever he did something, ugh! I really needed to stop this!
When the cupcakes were done cooling we frosted them with some white frosting. Suddenly I felt a big glob of something on my forehead and some snickering from behind me. "Jeremy. Miles. Ferguson. Did you really just do that" I launched myself at Jinxx fingers full of frosting. That was how we spent the next 15 minutes, running around the house yelling and flicking frosting at each other. It was so much fun!
I was in Jinxxs bedroom hiding from him, he had grabbed the entire frosting container and was now stalking through the halls looking for me. I jumped in the bed and hid under the covers, there really was no better place in the room. Smiling I embraced the nice smell of Jinxx that his bed gave off, I heard him outside the door. "Oh where could Amber be, I have some frosting I want to share with her" the bedroom door opened. He walked around the room, holy shit maybe he actually couldn't hear me? Finally I heard him walk to the door I pulled myself out from underneath the overs. Only then did I notice that Jinxx was still standing in the doorway grinning with a tub of frosting. "Jinxx let's think about this! Let's not be rash in our decis-" I started to say before Jinxx launched himself and the tub of frosting at me. Laying on my back I realized that Jinxx was laying directly on top of me, everything was touching everything! Looking into his eyes I felt the need to kiss him right then and there, I noticed his head move a little closer to mine. We were so close! Suddenly his phone started to ring and we both snapped out of the moment, blushing like crazy. He sat up now straddling me. "Hey, I got an idea!" Jinxx said looking excited. I groaned, this was never good. "Close your eyes" he said softly, and for some reason I obliged. I felt his soft fingers touch my face, and something else touch my face. Frosting.
"Jinxx, what the hell are you doing" I groaned as his frosting covered fingers continued to rub themself all over my face. "Calm yourself! I know what I'm doing" he chuckled, still rubbing frosting on my face. About 5 minutes later he said "open your eyes now". I opened them to find Jinxx still straddling me with frosting covered fingers and smiling. I found myself looking into his beautiful blue eyes, it was perfect. Blush crept onto my cheeks, Jinxx must have noticed because he laughed. Pulling myself up I found myself inches away from Jinxxs lips. He closed his eyes and so did I, we were so close.
"Amber... Jinxx... Are you guys still here? What the fuck?!?!" We heard Andy say yelling slightly at the end. "Jinxx I thought you guys were making cupcakes! Not having fucking sex!" Andy yelled walking over and pushing Jinxx off of me. Ashley walked in looking confused, Jinxx just looked scared. "Dad it's not what it looks like! I promise" I said trying to get Andy to calm down. "Oh really? It's not what it looks like? He is straddling you in a bed and you're both covered in white stuff that I don't even want to know! This is bull shit!" Andy fumed, Ashley just looked shocked. "Dad! We were making cupcakes and then we started having a frosting war and then Jinxx started drawing something on my face in frosting" i exclaimed. Andy had no right to go from completely ignoring me to being the most overprotective father ever! "Yeah, look! I was doing my war paint on her face in frosting" Jinxx said pointing at my face. Andy started to blush, "Look dude I'm sorry, it's just that that's my daughter an-" he started to say before Jinxx cut him off. "Don't worry Andy! I get it, no hard feelings?" He said standing up smiling. Even though Jinxx forgave Andy I hadn't. I wasn't giving up that easily. "Bye Jinxx, I had fun today. Lets go Ashley" I said and grabbed Ashley by the arm dragging him outside.

A/N
Omfg! You guys had no idea how hard writing this chapter was, I almost made Jinxx gay and dating Jake but then I changed my mind and just ugh! I actually ended up texting some people and asking what they thought I should do, that's how hard of a decision it was! But now Amber likes Jinxx! Does he like her back! The world may never know! Until next chapter at least.....
