*this happens at the same time as the previous chapter* *well not exactly the whole time but I think you should be able to tell when it picks up*

Jordan watched as Nick and Jay abruptly left the kitchen and watched as Daisy's frustration didn't seem to simmer down.

"Do you want to talk about it?" Jordan asked carefully.

"I told him! I told him how awful he is and he didn't believe me! He is going to be heartbroken and it could have been avoided!" Daisy shouted.

"Daisy, I really think they are going to be fine. No offense but he looks at Nick so much differently than he ever looked at you."

"Why does everyone hate me?" Daisy started crying.

Jordan stood up and embraced Daisy in a hug, "nobody hates you," she cooed softly.

"Then why does everyone cheat on me? Jay cheated on me and Tom is cheating on me with Myrtle."

"You don't deserve them Daisy. You are so beautiful and kind and if they can't see that then that is their problem. You have to be with someone who appreciates you and not your wealth."

Jordan didn't know if she was going to go after Myrtle or Tom, personally, she would be perfectly fine going after both.

"Nobody ever will. I'm not smart or artistic or have any other talent…" Jordan cut Daisy off with a kiss. She didn't care how risky it was. She didn't care if Daisy was going to push her away forever, she needed to show Daisy that she did care, and she needed Daisy to believe her. To Jordan's surprise, Daisy did kiss her back.

"What? What was that for?" Daisy asked when the pair pulled apart.

"Daisy, I care for you, whether you can see it or not, whether you believe it or not, whether you return my affection or not. It doesn't matter, you just have to understand that there are so many people out there…" this time Daisy cut Jordan off.

"Hey, you're beautiful," Daisy said.

Jordan frowned a bit, after her confession that was all she could say. She signed knowing it was much better than before.

"How did you know you liked girls?" Daisy asked.

Jordan thought about it for a second, "well when every girl wanted the quarterback but I found his girlfriend more attractive."

Daisy giggled slightly, "so when did you like me?" she asked with a light blush.

"I think around the time you and Jay broke up. Despite the breakup, you were just radiant and you always caught my eye."

Jordan honestly hated being this sentimental but thought it would be the only way for her to get even close to Daisy now and not have her turn her away.

"I'm thinking there might be a place in my heart for girls," Daisy admitted.

Jordan smiled, "I'll always be here for you."

"Want to go shopping?" Daisy asked, "I need the perfect breakup outfit. One that really shows Tom I'm already over it."

"I can't go in this!" Jordan complained referencing her outfit from last night.

"Come back to my room, I'm sure I have something that will fit you."

Jordan smiled as they went back up to Daisy's room. Daisy first tried getting Jordan in a dress and Jordan certainly was not wearing a dress, especially in public. Eventually, Daisy agreed and found her a pair of jeans and a nice tee that fit her fine.

"Let's take my car," Jordan suggested, "I would have to take it anyway to go home."

"No!" Daisy quickly said, "We should... Umm... Let's take my corvette, it looks nicer."

"What's wrong with my porsche?" Jordan asked.

"It's so the wrong color!" Daisy complained.

Jordan rolled her eyes, "whatever, we can take the corvette if you really want to."

"You can still drive," Daisy offered.

Jordan smirked and as they walked down happily grabbed the keys.

Jordan didn't love shopping but shopping with Daisy was a completely different experience. She tried on half the store and bought almost all of it. Jordan had a bag or two from some of the stores they visited but Daisy had to return to the car after each store because she always had at least three bags. In one store Daisy was trying on clothes and Jordan looked at the jewelry rack. It was one of Jordan's favorite stores being one of the only that always carried pride items not just for June. She saw a pair of bi flags as earrings and wondered if Daisy had her ears pierced. Almost on time, Daisy came bursting out of the room and asked for Jordan's opinion on the short skirt she was wearing. Jordan of course told her that she looked amazing as she caught sight of the diamond studs she was wearing only slightly hidden by her bob. Daisy entered the dressing room and with the other items in her hand as well as the earrings Jordan went to the counter and paid. Jordan thought they would be a great gift, Christmas was in a few months and was much sooner than Daisy's birthday which was in May.

"Is your girlfriend going to buy everything?" The employee behind the counter asked.

"Yes, she's bought almost everything from every other store we have been to as well," Jordan signed.

"And yet you love her anyway?" The girl suggested.

"More than I can say," Jordan agreed.

"Same way with my girlfriend."

"You wouldn't trade her for anyone else though," Jordan suggested this time.

"Exactly!"

As soon as Jordan finished paying Daisy came out of the changing rooms with arms full of clothing. She took the clothing and set it onto the counter that Jordan had just gathered her belongings from.

"All this?" The lady asked with her eyebrows raised.

"Yep!" Daisy confirmed with a smile.

"Please tell me this is the last store," Jordan wanted to know.

"We have to stop at the grocery store," Daisy said, "we need eggs and toilet paper."

Jordan smirked, they were going to have fun tonight, she was sure of it. In the car again Jordan asked, "so we are having fun at some houses tonight?"

"Yes, Tom's car and Myrtle's house are going to be nothing to us."

Jordan cheered.

That night Daisy and Jordan both dressed in all black and in a black convertible they went to Myrtle's place first. Jordan grabbed some toilet paper and started wrecking the trees. Daisy threw some over the house and grabbed two eggs and hit two windows.

"Let's go!" Daisy called as some lights inside turned on.

Jordan giggled and they drive off to Tom's place.

At Tom's place, Daisy identifies Tom's most precious car and they grab the rest of the eggs. His car is covered with yolk and Daisy is having the time of her life. Jordan is just enjoying seeing her radiant flower bloom and radiate. Daisy looks up at Jordan who is only looking at her. Daisy blushes, she doesn't know why, Jordan is her friend and she is helping her. Daisy knows Jordan likes her but does she like Jordan. She heard their conversation, she knows Jordan said they were dating. Why didn't she correct the store attendant? Why did she..?

Daisy's thoughts were cut off as Jordan started calling her name, "Daisy! Daisy! We have to go!"

"Oh… Yeah, let's go," Daisy agreed.

Once they got back to the Fay mansion they were both laughing until Daisy stopped.

"Come on Daisy, you can get out and then I'll go home," Jordan said.

Daisy stayed put and looked at Jordan. Daisy loved her sleek hair and her eyes that almost looked purple. It didn't matter that she didn't have a large chest because she had a big heart despite trying to hide it. That's when Daisy knew, regardless of who she was that she was completely infatuated with Jordan Baker who she hardly knew until her cousin had introduced her. She leaned and kissed Jordan, Jordan happily kissed back.

"Please stay," Daisy begged.

"Alright," Jordan agreed.

In Daisy's bedroom, the two lie together and enjoy the first night of them being sober.

"What am I going to tell Nick?" Daisy asked.

"I can tell him. He told me the first day he started dating Gatsby. Besides he knew I had a thing for you since day one I doubt he'll be surprised."

"Are we dating?" Daisy asked timidly.

"Do you want to be my girlfriend?" Jordan asked in turn.

"Yes."

"Then yes, we are dating."

"Why did you lie to the store clerk?"

Jordan wondered if Daisy was always this curious. She loved how her eyes were wide with wonder. Daisy seemed to be similar to a small child but Jordan didn't mind.

"She said we reminded her of her and her girlfriend. Besides I really didn't mind the confusion."

"Jordan, I'm actually happy Tom cheated on me. I wouldn't be here with you now if he hadn't."

"Yes, we might have to thank Myrtle someday."

"Oh, they'll never last!" Daisy assured.

"I bet, I thought she was dating George too, what happened to him?"

"Oh my gosh! I completely forgot! Myrtle cheated on her boyfriend too!"

"Does George know?" Jordan asked.

"I don't think so, but he's super psycho! He'll probably shoot up the school or something!"

"I'm just surprised Tom would ever go for Myrtle, she doesn't have that much money and Tom seems like a much more materialistic guy."

"He is, I hate to admit he was only with me for money but it seemed he only was."

"If he couldn't see how much you are worth then that's all him though. You are so precious Daisy."

Daisy blushed and gently kissed Jordan, "you are the best. Any girl would be lucky to have you."

"And yet I'm all yours and I consider myself the lucky one."
