~Jayden's POV~
"Shit!", I grunt out silently. "Shit!"
As if my outburst in front of Holly wasn't bad enough, now I have to hear about her being hurt by these same stupid actions. I was just frustrated she didn't say she cares because she likes me, but that didn't give me the right to snap at her like that. Sometimes I hate my short temper.
By the way: Yes, I'm currently eavesdropping on them.
No, I don't think that's bad. I mean, I have to get my information somewhere, you know?
Pressing my ears against the door again, I try to listen some more, yet they talk about Juli's new room again. It nearly seems to me as if Holly doesn't want to have all the attention on herself anymore. Typical. She's always trying to stay in the background, only giving everyone else her full attention, never herself. It always was a habit of her I somehow know isn't healthy for her.
Suddenly my thoughts get interrupted by Holly saying she has to go.
"My dad texted me, he wants me to do something at home", she explains through the door. I swiftly make my way over to my room, not to far down the hallway. Right on time, because a few seconds later the door opens and when she walks out I just act as if I only came down the halls.
Ignoring both of them, I get my ass down to the kitchen, knowing I can eavesdrop from there when they come down to the front door. As if on cue I hear voices in the hallways.
"Drive safely, okay? And don't think about my asshole of a brother to much. He's just frustrated because of how they treat Dylan", my shitty sister snitches on me. Did she really have to tell my long-time crush that I'm jealous over my older brother?! Ugh!
"I will, don't worry. Don't beat yourself up about it, enjoy your new room! Love you!", my angel responds lightheartedly, but I can hear the strain in her soft voice. I automatically frown again, frustrated with myself.
The front door shuts, then I hear Juli silently getting up the stairs again, mumbling something about shaving my head in my sleep. Isn't she lovely, everyone?
I just started to make myself some protein shake, when suddenly the doorbell rings again. Groaning I set the ingredients down and make my way over to open the fucking door.
"What?!", I snap in annoyance, before even registering who stands in front of me.
Oh shit! It's Holly again. Fuck my life.
"I'm sorry, I thought it's someone else. Weren't you just on your way home?", I ask in a calmer voice, only noticing how rude that sounds again after the words already left my mouth.
"I- Uhm... Yes, about that... My, uhm, car is kinda broken I- I think", she stutters out shyly. It's adorable how she flushes under my gaze. I wish I could just grab her and pin her to the wall, while my hard dick presses into her lower region, making her moan and-
Fuck!
Trying not to show her my growing erection, I nod swiftly, turning around to call out for Juli. There's a curse coming from upstairs, then my sister comes stomping down the stairs.
"What is it? I'm trying to bath up here!"
Her angry voice is supported by wet hair and her body being wrapped in a bathrobe. Wow, she works fast. Holly wasn't even gone for a whole five minutes.
"Uhm, my car broke down", Holly intervenes, looking guilty for interrupting her best friend's bathing time.
"Oh shit", Juli's voice changes abruptly when she notices Holly, immediately taking on a concerned tone. She's with Holly just like I'm with Luke...
