Dinner with the Porters
"What if they don't like me?" EJ asked Gina smiled "my mom loves you." EJ looked at Gina "speaking of are you ok? You haven't seen Jamie sense Beauty And The Beast."
"Dinner with my brother who I barely know and who's never really been in my life? This is not going to be awkward at all." she said sarcastically. "On the plus side you look hot." EJ grinned he was wearing a baby blue dress shirt and black dress pants. "Thank you. You look gorgeous." Gina looked down and blushed. "I love you."
"I love you too."
Gina's mom, Terri opened the door. "Hey you two!" she smiled "EJ you look so handsome." Gina smiled told you so she mouthed EJ grinned at her. He turned back to her mom. "Thank you Ms. Porter, you look great too."
Terri smiled "thank you EJ."
They came inside and sat down at the dinner table Dinner was roast chicken and salad. "EJ what are you doing here?" Jamie asked "Gina and I are- Gina cut him off "dating"
Jamie looked surprised "when did that happen?"
"This year." EJ said awkwardly
Gina gave a harsh laugh "he's surprised because he brilliantly told EJ that I thought of him as a big brother."
Jamie laughed awkwardly "that was a mistake."
"I wonder why you would think I would need a big brother figure in my life?" Gina said pretending to think. "Oh right! It's because you were never in my life."
"Gina" Terri warned
"Could we not do this here?" Jamie asked her quietly
Gina slammed her hand down on the table and quickly got up and walked out of the room. Jamie got up and followed her. Terri sighed "just let them work it out, they just need to talk."
"For what it was wroth, dinner was delicious." EJ said trying to break the tension.
Gina and Jamie were in the next room. "Gigi- "Don't Gigi me" Gina said hotly "i'm sorry."
"Are you? You were never around when I was a kid, I was basically an only child. And then you come back like this expecting a relationship? I tried SO hard to get you to notice me as a kid to pay any attention to me at all, and you never did. Then you come back Jamie Porter the famous music producer, and think you can pick up where you left off?"
"I'm trying Gigi, I know I was never there as a brother.. But i'm here now."
"I'm 17! I'm basically grown up! I don't need you now!" Gina yelled, tears came to her eyes fairly easily. "I'm sorry Jamie but I don't need you."
"I'm sorry ok! How many times do you want me to say it!" Jamie yelled "I'm related to you and i've never even spent time with you in my life!" Gina yelled back "I have issues because of you! I can't have normal relationships because of you! You LEFT ME and that messed me up!"
"Oh and mom not the one to blame for that?!" Jamie asked angrily "she was always at work but at least she stuck around!" Gina counered
The Porter siblings looked at each other both yelled out and exhausted. ""Im really trying to make up for everything.. I'm here now Gina."
Gina looked at him "thanks for 'trying' but I don't need you now."
She came into the dinning room and sighed EJ got up and hugged her, Gina sighed and smiled despite herself. "Thank you."
EJ smiled "for what?"
"For.. Everything."
I wrote this chapter because I never really understood how in the airport episode Gina went from "he basically ghosted me and my mom." to in the very next episode hugging him and being happy to see him. It's very clear he was never in her life so I wanted these two to get their true feelings out, especially Gina. Personally, I never liked Jamie, he was never in her life and he never really tried to be. But that's just my option what do you think about Jamie Porter? Let me know in the comments! What do you guys think should Gina and Jamie reconnect? Or do you think it's better if they go their separate ways? I can write it ether way, just tell me what you want to see and i'll do it.
