⋆Vada⋆

Vada had to tell somebody.

It was sure to hurt some of her best friends, aswell as her own relationship when Jaden found out about Nick, but it had to be done.

And that was why she was stood at Jadens apartment door, knowing he was out and Josh was the only one home, her fist up to knock, ready for the conversation abead of her.

"Vada?" Josh asked as he opened the door, a yawn escaping hid mouth as he stretched, "Jadens not here right now?" He told her, questioning in his voice.

"I know, i'm not here for him...i'm here for you" she said, breezing past him and into the already messy apartment, despite her attempts to clean up a bit that morning.

"Woah...Vada I think you're great and all but Jadens my boy, he's like a brother to me, I could never-"

"No, you idiot" Vada cut him off, rolling her eyes and shaking her head as he let out a light 'oh'.

"Then what is it? What's wrong?" He asked, sitting down next to her.

"I have to tell you something...and it's going to hurt so many people" she bit her lip, tears coming to her eyes, "including Jaden and I, but I need to do this"

"Okay?" He questioned, raising an eyebrow in full confusion as he inched closer to the nearly crying girl, rubbing her back to comfort her.

"When I went to The Hype House a few days ago, I saw something that I shouldn't have, and I need to tell you because it'll hurt you the least- well not the least but less than Charli, well more than me and Jaden but-"

"Vada, Vada, Vada" he cut her off as she spoke, shaking his head in confusion, "what are you on about?"

Vada looked at his eyes which were flickering between both of hers, trying his best to figure out what she was talking about.

"I saw Nessa and Chase...kissing" she let out, licking her lips as she watched Josh's face fall.

He sat back slowly into the couch, his mouth open in disbelief.

"What?" He finally let out in a shakey breath, closing his eyes tightly as he ran his hand through his hair.

"I wanted to tell you sooner but he threatened to-"

"He threatened you?" Josh cut her off, gritting his teeth and slamming his hand down on the couch.

"Yeah...no, he said that he's tell everybody about Jaden and me-"

"Fucking asshole!" Josh shouted jumping up, storming his way to his room, Vada stood up quickly, running after him.

"Josh-"

"He can't get away with this, i'll kill him!" He pushed his way back past her as he made his way out of his room, his shoes now on and a hoodie in his hands.

"Hey, Josh whe-" Jaden started opening the door only to have Josh barge past him.

"Stop him!" Vada shouted as she ran past Jaden and down the hallway after Josh.

"Vada?" Jaden asked full of confusion, standing on his spot for a bit longer before running after the two,  getting to the stairwell before Josh.

"Get out of my way" Josh shouted, trying his best to push past Jaden but he wasn't moving.

"What's wrong?" Jaden asked Vada, pushing Josh back into the apartment, Josh still resisting but less so now.

"It-"

"I'll tell you what's fucking wrong" Josh shouted storming around the apartment, not seeing Vada locking the door and taking the key, "Chase kissed Nessa, well that's all we know, he could have fucked her for all I know" he kicked a box as he spoke, the things in and around it rattling about.

"What?" Jaden asked, just as angry as Josh, "i'll kill him-"

"No!" Vada cut him off as she stood in front of the door, blocking their way.

"You knew about this?" Jaden asked her in disbelief as she pushed them back.

"I caught them, a few nights ago"

"And you didn't think to fucking say something!" He shouted at her, his face softening as she flinched back, but recovered as quickly as it broke.

"He threatened to-"

"He threatened you!" Jaden shouted again, picking Vada up and placing her down out of the way, going to open the door but got stuck shaking it as it wouldn't open, the keys in Vadas pocket.

"Jaden, this getting out will hurt everybody; Josh, Charli, me and you!"

"How is this hurting us?" He asked, his eyebrows furrowing.

"He's going to tell everybody about us if this gets out...and he'll tell you who it was and-" she rambled but was cut off by Jaden, Josh stood to the side his breath still unsteady as he shook his head.

"When did our relationship become more important than our friends?" He asked her in disbelief, his face cracking as he saw Vadas tears.

"It's not! Okay! I know it's not" she was full out crying now, "i've been thinking about how to handle this for days! I haven't slept! Theres no way to do this without hurting somebody and I hate it!" She fell to the floor, her knees hardly hitting it before he grabbed her, holding her in his arms.

"People are already hurt anyways Vay... but only the good people are hurt at the moment, he needs to know that he can't do this" Jaden reasoned with her, feeling her nod against his chest.

"Josh...you need to go see Nessa, talk to her about it and-"

"No!" Josh cut her off, "Chase needs to pay!" He was fuming, his face flushed red with anger.

"So does Nessa..." she trailed off.

"What?" Jaden asked looking down at her.

"Well not pay like that...but you can't blame Chase for all of it, Nessa was there too"

"But he kissed her-"

"And she kissed him straight back!" Vada spoke louder now, "you can't blame Chase for all of this, Nessa was part of it, treat them the same" the two looked unsure as she spoke,  "Look, I'll talk to Charli on the way to Sway, Jaden you drive us all too see Chase, please, be gentle about it..." she wiped her tears as he pulled her up.

"Vay, do you know what this means?" He asked, wiping a single tear from her face with the pad of his thumb, "everybody will find out about us..."

"It's worth it" she whispered, nodding as she pulled the keys from her pocket.

"Please don't fight anybody, please don't start a fight, he'll be scared and-"

"Yeah, sure okay" he told her, taking the keys from her hand and walking towards the door, anger back in his voice, "you come with me to Sway tell Charli , then we'll all go to Hype together, that way you can stop the fighting, Josh you go see Nessa, okay?" Jaden rushed out as he unlocked the door, walking briskly down the hallway as the two followed.

"Okay..." she whispered out as they all got into the car, him speeding off before she could pull on her seatbelt.

It'd be a long night.
