"Come in" I said expecting Hailey or my mom to walk in "hey" Gio said closing the door behind himself.
"Oh hey. Sorry I left early I got tired" I said sitting up and crossing my legs on the bed "Rory stop. Hailey said you were upset and I'm pretty sure you're upset at me so what did I do" "you didn't do anything really" "just tell me" "do you still like Noel" "I- why would you ask that" "so you do, please leave" "Rory let me just explain" "explain what. How I'm the only one who couldn't tell. Or how I let you fool me into thinking you actually liked me. God I looked like such an idiot in front of all the girls who clearly know you way better than I do" "I do like you" "no you're using me to get over your ex basically. What, you saw me and thought if you got fuck to me you'd be over her. I mean you only met me once" "Rory come on, let me just explain myself. Noel was Carters sister so we've known each other for pretty much our entire lives. Since I was 12 we've liked each other. Yes we dated other people but we knew we liked each other so we eventually got together when I was 15. When I went to prison she cheated on me which you know so we were done" "and what you just never talked to her again" "no I did when I got out and she apologized. She was hurt and lonely and wasn't thinking straight. I got passed it because I couldn't blame her. I was dumb and got myself arrested but either way she cheated on me and I wasn't taking her back. The break up wasn't mutual obviously I still liked her but I can't get back with her" "so I'm just next best thing" "no not at all. I'm not saying this right but I don't like her. I don't know how to prove it to you" "I just want the truth Gio, please" "the truth is that I will always care for her as one of my best friends little sister and no other way. I like you Rory and I don't know who said what at that party but I don't have feelings for Noel anymore" "does she like you" "I don't know I haven't talked to her since I was released" "okay" "okay" he asked "I believe you" I said as he sat on the bed next to me, pulling me into his chest "I'm sorry" he said before kissing the top of my head.

Haileys pov
When I woke up Isaac was still knocked out so I gently got off of the bed and went downstairs. I knew he'd have a headache since he drank so much last night.

"Good morning Hailey" Anna said as I got downstairs "good morning" "how was your night" "oh good" "Isaacs still sleep yes" "yea he is I was gonna come down and make some coffee" "and there's Advil in the cabinet" she said "Advil" "yes. Sweetheart we were teenagers too" "oh right sorry" "no worries and besides we know Isaac drinks. He's responsible most of the time though but he does have to pick up Jack today" "he does" I asked "yes. I guess Sydney called him while you were both sleep so she called me and said she was just leaving the house" "do I need to wake him up" "no no it's probably best if he sleeps it off a little" "okay" "Danielle will be cooking breakfast soon. I told her to hold off" "well thank you" "of course" she said smiling.

I took the Advil with some water while the coffee was making then finished my cup with creamer and sugar and took it upstairs.
I sat on the bed next to Isaac as he laid on his stomach. He stirred a little moving his hand around until it touch my thigh then he stopped.

Almost 45 minutes later he woke up to the sound of Danielle knocking on the door.
"Sir, breakfast" she said through the door "thank you" he said sitting up.
"Good morning" I said to him "morning".
"I didn't know you had to pick up Jack" I said as he came out of the bathroom "oh yea I forgot to tell you. You don't mind right" "no of course not" "your mom won't mind if I bring him back to your house right" "no she won't besides they won't be home until after we get back" "okay. Then we'll leave after breakfast. He doesn't like staying there himself" "okay sounds good" I said before we went downstairs.

"He's upstairs" Sydney's dad I'm guessing said opening the door, clearly not amused to see Isaac.

"Uncle Isaac" Jack said excitedly as we walked in his room "hey buddy how are you" "good. Hi Hailey" "hey Jack" "we're gonna go to Haileys house to get her brothers okay" "okay" "did you eat" "yes" "good" "mom said to make sure you take this" Jack said pointing at a bag before Isaac grabbed it and we left.

"Hey mom" I said as we went inside "hey hon. How was your weekend" "good. This is Jack" "hi Jack" she said "hi" "you're brothers are upstairs. We're about to leave" "okay. See you guys later" I said as she kissed my cheek and Derrick came out of the room. They talked with us for a minute or so then left.

We didn't have to leave for a while so we went upstairs. I took Jack to Sams room and they started playing then I went to my room with Isaac.

"What time do we have to leave" Isaac asked "two thirty, he has to be there before three" "okay" "you feeling okay" "yea why" "just making sure".
After a while of laying there my phone rang and I reached to answer it.
"Hey" Rory said "hey you okay" "uh yea" "did you talk to him" "yea" "and? Did you break up" "no he explained" "so you're okay" "yea we are" "good. I have to take Michael to baseball so I'll see you tomorrow" "okay. Hey and thank you for last night" "anytime Ror" "I'll let you go, love you" "love you too" I said before hanging up.
"She okay" Isaac asked "yea she said he explained and that they're good" "well that's good" "yea".

"Okay everyone in the car let's go" I said as the boys got downstairs.
When we got there Sam and Jack went to play on the bleachers with some of the other kids.

"You leave Wednesday right" Isaac asked "yea" "will you be at school" "yea but I'm leaving early" "okay" "I'm gonna miss you" "I will too. It'll be spring break though" "good".

"Uncle Isaac I'm thirsty" Jack said walking up to us "I'll get you a water" I said getting up. I got a few waters from the cooler and then went back to the bleacher.
"Here sit down" Isaac said as he sat between us and Isaac gave him the bottle.
"Hello Hailey" "hi Mrs. Espinosa how are you" "well, is this your boyfriend" "yea, Isaac" "oh and a child" she said slyly, looking between Isaac and I judgmentally "oh uh this isn't our child" "oh yes of course it isn't" she said but clearly she didn't believe it then she walked away.

"That's interesting" Isaac said laughing a little "shut up. She and Mrs. Tier always make up some shit about me and tell the others" "well wait until they hear about the ruffian that knocked you up" "that's not funny" I joked as he put his arm around me.
"Are we gonna get food" Sam asked "yes, when your brother is done we will get food" "okay" he said sitting next to me and then laying his head on my lap.

About and hour later, Michael finished then we went to get something to eat before going back to Isaacs house.

"Hello sir will you need me to make anything" Danielle asked "no we got food, here I got you some" he said handing her a bag "oh you didn't have to do that" "it's fine" "thank you" she said as he nodded then we went upstairs.

"I'm gonna take a nap but if the boys need anything just wake me up" "if they need anything I got it. Go to sleep" he said kissing me.

"Joana told me how you were at the party" Antonio said "so what" "so why are you so rude to her still" "because she took Isaac" "so what, move on" "no. Not until they're so broken up they don't get back together. She thinks she's better than me for him and she's not" "maybe she is. Maybe you and Isaac just weren't supposed to be together" "we both know that's not true. When I was with Isaac I could get away with anything" "I wouldn't call it get away. Everyone just knows Isaac would've raised hell and you knew that" "I knew that, so what" "so you did it on purpose and now you're not with him so people aren't afraid of sleeping with you so they don't do what you say. You could just be nice to her and at least you'll be friends with him" "yea not gonna happen. I don't want to be friends with him. I'm honestly rooting for an early death or tragedy that makes her hate him and she'll stay far away from us" "that's cruel, don't say that" "I don't get why you're defending her anyways" "I'm not defending her I'm trying to help you. For whatever sick reason you want to be with Isaac, this isn't the way" he said before he left my room.
I knew there was one person that wanted to hurt Isaac more than I did but I debated helping him even now. He'd get it done himself but I didn't want to see him kill Isaac. I knew what he had to do but I'd save that plan for when I really needed it.
