Chapter 11
A month had been all a blur, with school, getting good grades for college, going to parties with Kendall and the girls and sometimes with the Kardashians (Jewel had been in some episodes of their reality show), and spending time with Patrick. She'd been having a lot of publicity, recently. Her friends from New York even called her up first thing in the morning saying that she was one of the 'Wild Children of LA' as seen on the papers. She'd been so busy lately, it had been long since she'd talked with some of her friends and Logan. They only see each other during class hours.
Her phone rang.
" Jewel, you have got to come here at Phoebe's! The party's getting wiiiiild!" Kendall said loudly against the noise in her background.
"I can't. I have to study for our major exam tomorrow"
"But Patrick's even here!"
"What? He never told me he's going!"
"I was even surprised you weren't with him. Listen, I have to go bef-aaaaahahaa!" Kendall hang up.
UGH! He told me he's at home with his dad!
She called Patrick. He hung up. She called again. 3 times. He won't answer.
UGH! Okay, calm yourself down, Jewel. Calm down.
She continued studying.
After an hour, Patrick called.
"Im sorry I didn't hear my phone ring," he said sounding drunk.
"How come you didn't tell me you're going to Phoebe's party? You said you can't have group study with me because your dad wants to spend quality time with his kids?" she said angrily.
"Im sorry" he said tipsily.
"Im sorry? that's it? No explanation?"
"What do you expect me to tell you? You already know the truth"
"Ugh! Jerk!" she hung up. She felt like she was going to cry. She looked out the window and noticed Logan was looking at her, with pitying eyes.
They began their marker messages again
Logan: U ok?
Jewel: No
Logan: Fight w/ Patrick?
Jewel: Yep
Logan: don't cry. Cheer up
Logan: I'll show u something. Tree house?
Jewel nodded and wiped her tears. She headed towards their backyard and made a shortcut to the tree house, she climbed up and saw Logan, with his laptop.
"Presenting Monkeynuts1069 Production!" he announced. "Dean and I made a video earlier and I just uploaded it on YouTube. Hope this would cheer you up a bit" he said and smiled.
While watching the video, she can't help but laugh. She insisted on watching more of their videos. For a moment, she forgot about Patrick.
"You guys are funny" she giggled.
"Thanks"
"Thank you. For trying to cheer me up" she said and smiled.
"No prob. So.. uhh, wanna talk about it?"
"Naah. I don't want to bother you with it"
Suddenly, she received a txt message from Kendall showing a picture of Patrick kissing a girl.
Kendall: Im not showing this to hurt you. Im showing this cause I care for you. Screw that jerk! Xoxo
This time, Jewel cried again.
"Why? What happened?" he asked. She showed him the photo.
"Don't cry over a jerk. He's not worth your tears," he said, wiping her tears.
She hugged him. Then wiped away her tears.
"Yeah! You're right! You're absolutely right!" she giggled nervously.
"That's the spirit!"
"Thank you. Soooo much. For being here with me. Trying to cheer me up with those funny videos and letting me cry on your shoulders. You're my hero," she smiled.
"It's the least I could do to a friend," he smiled.
"Well, we should get going. We still have that major test tomorrow" they got up and left.
