I ran up the stairs and went to Jordan's room on the 3rd floor. I was still soaking wet and now freezing. I knocked on her door lightly.
She opened the door and her hair was messy and her shirt was on backwards. I just interrupted Juke sex. (Jordan and Luke=juke). Oh God.
"Shit sorry Jordan I'll come back later. I uh I just, Calum cheated on me. I walked in on him kissing his ex." I stuttered.
"Babe don't worry, come in. Come in, Luke can wait." she gushed.
Even though I was in a terrible mood that made me laugh and I winked at her. She blushed, realizing what she just said.
I stepped into her suite and took my shoes off and put them next to the door. she ran to the bathroom to get me a towel since I was soaking wet from the rain.
While she was gone, Luke walked out from the bedroom, shirtless with sweatpants hanging dangerously low on his hips. I felt bad that I interrupted them.
"oh hey Lily." Luke said softly giving me a small smile.
"uh, hi Luke." I said quietly, looking down at my wet socks. I bet I looked like a mess.
"what's wrong?" he asked with concern. Even though Luke was Jordan's boyfriend, he was one of my best friends, so I looked up at him and explained what happened quickly.
"shit. Do you want me to beat him up for you Lil?" he asked. I cringed at the nickname he called me. Usually only Calum called me that. It made me think about him which caused a few tears to fall. I looked down again.
"um. no it's okay Luke. thanks." I whispered at an almost un audible tone.
He nodded and came over to give me a hug and then disappeared back into the bedroom.
Jordan came back with a towel and some extra clothes from her room for me to borrow.
"come on let's get you changed and dried up so that you can explain fully what happened to me. Then we can watch movies and eat ice cream. The break up essentials." She clapped her hands together, trying to cheer me up.
"um we didn't actually break up." I said quietly.
"what?" she asked, confused.
"he explained himself to me and then said he'd give me some time to think about it. Then we um...made out in the rain." I said, a little embarrassed.
"oh god Lily, you're in way too deep with that boy. You walked in on him making out with his ex and then you basically forgave him and had a make out session in the rain. Although kissing in the rain is romantic and I want to cry thinking of how cute you two probably looked, ... wait I don't know where I was going with this."
We laughed together and she told me to go change and dry off and said I could shower if I wanted to. I took the clothes and went to her bathroom to change and shower. I stripped out of my clothes and got in the shower, trying to let the steam clear my mind of everything that's happened today.
I got out of the shower and dried off. I slipped on the baggy, grey sweatpants and black tank top that Jordan let me borrow. I brushed my wet hair a little with a comb by the sink. When I was done, I walked out into the living room to see Fiona and Catherine standing there talking to Jordan.
As soon as they saw me, they ran over to me and engulfed me in a huge hug.
"Jordan told us what happened babe were so sorry." Fiona said while rubbing my back.
"We're here for you kid! We brought some stuff over so the day won't be that miserable." Catherine pointed to the kitchen counter where I saw loads of stuff piled up. There were about 6 containers of ice cream, 2 boxes of pizza, a bag of popcorn, Doritos, cookies, a stack of Disney movies including one of my favorites: Peter Pan.
I loved these girls so much. I don't know what I'd do without my best friends. For the rest of the day we ate non-stop, had a Disney movie marathon, and they gave me tips and options on what I should do in my situation.
"I think you should forgive him." Catherine said.
"Yeah, maybe he's telling the truth. I can tell he really loves you." Fiona added.
"You guys are my favorite couple so if you break up I'll probably jump out of that window." Jordan pointed to the window next to the huge flat screen tv. We all burst out laughing and I leaned over and hugged Jordan.
"I really do love him. But I think I'm willing to forgive and try to forget." I said slowly.
"Yes!" they all said in unison.
I'm so glad to have these amazing people as my best friends. I don't know if I would've forgiven Calum if it wasn't for their guidance and support.
Tomorrow I'll talk to Calum.
