Port Charles
Kelly's diner
"Cameron what happened with Trina she didn't seem like herself is her dad okay she's not answering any of my text"Josslyn asked. As he thought back to what unfolded in front of them he honestly couldn't believe it himself. But he knew Elena didn't snap for no reason; she was as methodical as they come. "Yeah her dad is fine, she just heard some stuff I would rather not talk about.
Right now until I know she's okay just don't ask me okay just give her sometime" he answered. "Geez i'm just worried for my best friend" she responds, he sighs "I know I am too but I dont wanna talk about it okay. We should be looking for something fun to do for the summer time" Cameron says.
All the while her and Emma sat worried when Skylar came in "What's up babes, Cam, Emm's"she says kissing all of them on the cheek. Then sitting down, "Nothing, what are you up to still talking to that guys Mr. Ponytail,"Emma asked. "Yes, Yes I am, I'm supposed to be going out with Mr. Ponytail" Skylar says, making Cameron shake his head.
"His name is Roman, Kid Roman, Ro, Rome, even Romanesco but don't ever call him that and don't tell him I told you that. But not to put a damper on things he may not be in a going out mood just give him sometime"Cameron says.
Making all three girls look at him " What's going on why would you say that? Skylar says. "It's nothing serious,just forget I said anything '' he replies just as she was about to answer. "Josslyn hey, Cameron, Sky and Emma" Oscar says, looking at her longingly not even looking up at him.
" Oscar how's Esme and Juliet"Josslyn says sarcastically, making Skylar laugh. Emma shook her head"What's up Oscar" Cameron said giving him a five, "hey man umm Joss can we talk please" he asked. "Not really i'm busy as you can see but I'm sure Esme and Juliet they miss you" she answered.
Cameron felt bad for him because Oscar was his friend and Jake's older brother. But he and Josslyn's problems were their own; his mind kept running back to Trina and his cousins. Whose lives were just turned upside down "Look Josslyn I don't want her okay I will be there for my daughter but that's it I want you, I want us. How we used to be" Oscar says, when she looked up "Well I don't want you because I'm with someone else" Josslyn says.
As her friends watched, Oscar gritted his teeth "I don't believe that why haven't I seen him" he says. Looking up she sees Rome, Les and Robinson coming into Kelly's, that's when she gets up and kisses Les. Catching everyone off guard both Skylar and Emma's mouth dropped. But Les went along with it before pulling back"he's here so you can go now Oscar of look Hi Esme" she said. All Oscar could do was look "who is this guy Joss"he said angrily as Esme came and held his arm. "He's my guy.
I met him through Cam and Spence and he's 21" Josslyn says holding Les's hand. When Esme stretched her hand out to greet him as he just looked at it "Yo Little momma I don't do snake ass bitches. So I prefer you get out of my face preferably, ayo Cam take Robbie with you to your house. Me and Roman are going to get hammered y'all wanna come" Les says. Leaving Esme stumped "Watch how you talk to her" Oscar said glaring at Les. "yo I'm gonna go before I beat the breaks off somebody I wanna hit something anyway.
But I don't need to end up in jail" he said, bumping Oscar out his way with Skylar and Joss going around them. "Les, Rome look I know you're angry and I get that but just know that it's not her fault" Cameron said. "Umm Indeed Cam but not now" Roman says, taking Sky's hand as they leave the diner. When they got further enough away "What was that about" Les says, "look at him and the she devil i'm sorry but I needed to think fast" Josslyn says. "Hmm look i'm happy to help but you're driving" he says giving her the keys to his rental truck. "Umm we can go to Charlies" Skylar says, taking the keys from Joss with a smile on her face.
Meanwhile inside "What the fuck Cameron I told you how I felt and you hook her up with some other guy" Oscar said, shoving him. Making Cam shove him back "I didn't hook her up with anyone she met him so did everyone else and you know. Just as well as I know Joss does whatever she wants" Cam shot back, "She just stuck her tongue down that guy's throat. You're supposed to be my friend, man you told me that you didn't know she was seeing anybody" Oscar says angrily.
"Why does it matter" Esme says, "It matters because I love her and I don't want to do this anymore" he shouted. Catching Emma and Cameron by surprise, that's when Juliet started to cry "Look I'm sorry but I'll still be there for Juliet because she's my daughter. But I'm not happy and neither are you so let's quit pretending we are" he says taking the screaming three month old. Emse stood shocked before going after Oscar and their daughter Emma looked at Cameron then Robbie who just shook his head mumbling something in Spanish.
Taggart apartment
Making Trina scoff"so it's true that ladies husband is my biological father because you cheated on Dad and lied about it. Can you honestly say that you cheating on dad did break up our family" the eighteen year old said. As Portia looked at Marcus who looked away"Trina your dad, Marcus and I had a troubled marriage" Portia said, "ok so is that why you went after that ladies husband.
Who she says was on drugs" she questioned, "look I know you upset I messed up I was in a bad way but I wanted you to hear from me. I was going to tell you after I spoke to Curtis and Marcus" the woman said, " why not just tell me the truth you keep it from me" Trina said hurt.
"Baby this was a very difficult situation and I needed to do this right to lessen the pain for you" Portia says.
Making Marcus hiss"lessen the pain for, who Portia not Trina and not me but for Curtis who you have unrequited feelings for and if I remember correctly. His wife is a rottweiler. What about her pain? What about their kids did you think about any of that or anyone else's pain because from where I am sitting. Only person's pain you were thinking about is yours because everyone was gonna get hurt regardless so tell me. Did it get you what you had hoped for or were you hoping Curtis would leave his wife of over ten years" he says, twenty years I remember it because at my supposed sisters wedding he said it.
How he loved her from their first date and that they weren't much older then that of my supposed older sister who is 21 when they got married. And how much he loved it when things got rough and he said he loved her strength and resilience the most because it kept him going and I remember it because I thought it was so beautiful. How he got up there, it was so touching then I remember telling Cameron it was so sweet and to which he responded that yeah he knew how tough it got for them. And how that woman Elena always held it together for them and she was so nice to me she treated me like family and it turns out I am.
Because you slept with her husband do you understand how I felt standing there while she sailed into I probably feel just as bad as she did" Trina said. "Baby I know you feel horrible and I never meant for" Portia says, when Trina cuts her off" NO YOU DON'T KNOW HOW I FEEL OR ANYONE. FOR THAT MATTERS" the teen said, "okay I know you're upset but you will not talk to me that way do you understand" the woman says. As Marcus scoffs"you can't manage how she feels Portia if she's angry or hurt" he says, "yeah but she's not gonna disrespect me either I know she is upset. Because what I did to you guys was wrong and I'm sorry ok at the time I thought.
That it was best for everyone to put it behind us and your dad loved you so much. I couldn't bear to take that away from you so I kept this secret. And now I saw Curtis who could possibly die and you would never get to know you and you him. That was when I realized I had made the wrong decision for everyone involved. And to the both of you I'm sorry I truly am" Portia says, "well it's not as easy as the rest of us Mom and you wanna know. The very absolutely worst part is being blindsided. I always loved Cameron's relationship.
With his siblings the same with Joss and I could have had that with mine had you told the truth. I'm gonna stay with friends because I can't be around you,"Trina says, getting up and grabbing her things and leaving. Before she even spoke he did " tell me something I know I share some of the responsibility of our marriage falling apart. But was the real reason you never really tried was that you were into Curtis and didn't give us a chance. You know what don't answer that because I can tell by the look on your face the answer is yes. Goodbye Portia oh and I need my key back" Marcus says getting up off the sofa and opening the door for her to leave.
La Rocca house
They were going to go to Charlie's but then thought better of it because she was 18 but Joss wasn't yet so they needed to go elsewhere. She stopped at the liquor store and to get food so they could buy what they wanted then went to her house. When they got there " you guys wait here the powder room is down the hall to the left Joss and I will be back"Skylar says. Making them both nod before going to freshen up as Sky watched with her friend watching her when they got further enough away.
Skylar turned to Josslyn "okay now spit it out what the hell was that Ms. Jacks" she questioned knowing it was coming "ughh I don't know Sky I was getting really tired of seeing that bitches smug face. And well Oscar I wanted him to feel bad for what he did to me" she said crossing her arms looking at her friend sympathetically. "I get that babe but why Les now don't get me wrong because he's totally smoking hot" Sky said. "Because I knew he would make Oscar jealous I mean come on he's really tall with a beard why not and he deserved it" Josslyn says.
Skylar poured a little bit of the Hennessy into four cups just as Roman and Les came in with her passing them a cup and Joss last. "Cheers" Sky says, winking at Josslyn as the guys slammed it back while taking it down. Joss gagged on it trying to finish " where's the food" Les asked as Joss got a really good look at him. He was handsome. He stood at 6 '3 well over 200 pounds of muscle with a beard and long curly hair that he just put into a bun with these soulful amber colored eyes.
"Hello earth to Josslyn do you want a plate or what?" her friend asked with a grin as she caught herself staring" umm no that's fine" she said taking her food and heading inside. With everyone else following out "we can go to the movie room and watch some movies if you guys want" cool we game "Roman answered. Skylar picked up that something else was going on with him because he didn't feel light like before they sat in the middle not too far from Joss and Les. Running her hands through his beard"Roman what's going on your a million miles away Is your dad okay I know he had a setback a day or so ago but did that change '' Sky asked as she ate her Chinese food.
He sighs"Skylar so much has happened in the last two hours then week since my pops got shot and I don't even know how to feel about it. But watching my mothers worst fear come true was so surreal and you don't know my mother she's not gonna say hey I'm hurt she's gonna flip her lid and snap and hurt someone physically and verbally. And I couldn't even step in as her son to stop it because I felt all her anger , her rage and even her hurt but not as deep as she did " Roman said. Seeing how hard it was for him"look if you want to tell me if you want or we can just sit here with your head on my lap but only if you want" she says.
Pouring him a drink then took his hair tie out and letting it down as he sipped on his drink while he sat back in her arms. Then sitting in silence Joss watched her friend. It surprised her that he wasn't quick to make out with her and he wanted to take her out. It was a change of pace "Your brother is really good with her I've never seen someone court her before. She deserves that" she said looking at Les who was eating a drink he stopped and looked at her. "So what's the story with you and the pencil neck from earlier?" he asked, putting his food aside "It was nothing" she said taking a sip of her drink.
He nodded his head "okay let me see if I can figure it out he's your ex boyfriend and his new girlfriend. He dumped you and now you feel the need to make him jealous" Les said. As he poured his soda into her cup then passed the cup back to her making her roll her eyes. Drinking half of the glasses "I guess I do owe you an explanation. It's pretty much what you said but he didn't dump me I dumped him. When the she- devil showed up claiming to be pregnant with his child. He had sex with her while in music camp in France we where together for three years. And we never you know what, whatever" Josslyn says, you guys never smashed and he smashed someone else.
And you feel away like something is wrong with you"Les said, only making her roll her eyes at him before finishing her drink. Then pouring another one when he took it from her "What are you doing" she says, trying to take it from him when he held it over her head. "Girl this is white hennessy this is some strong shit and I would be a jerk. If I let you drink that knowing you can't handle it" he says when she tries to get it. "I don't need a babysitter and the drinking was your idea"she says, "would you stop 6 '3 your not reaching it.
Hold let me tell you something little momma there's nothing wrong with you. Don't let that shit get to you and I on the other hand have real issues going on baby girl that's bullshit. You're pretty so don't worry about it. I understand your hurt but that kid is weak. He did you a favor" Elesandro said when she took his drink and finished. "You don't know it all alright and you don't know me"Josslyn says, "girl go ahead with that you're just mad because I read that bullshit" he replies. Neither noticed that both Skylar and Roman weren't there "Gosh you're an ass"she says, shrugging his shoulders as he sat back down.
"Yeah well honey i'm an honest one and it's a part of my charm" he said with a slight smile. Drinking her cup and pouring another one as she rolled her eyes mad because he was right. "What happened is your dad okay" she asked, "he's fine physically anyway. And I don't really wanna think about it right now" Les answered, passing her another drink. Before they knew it they had finished the entire bottle then passing out Joss was the first to wake up. With her head throbbing when she looked over her eyes went wide "Oh my gosh where's my clothes" she said looking down.
