Chapter 9
Jenn lied down Ryan in his bed and turned around to find Bam right in front of her.
"Dude, don't scare me like that. Please." she said. She tried to walk away but Bam blocked her. "What?"
There was a silence then Bam said, "Nothing." He let her leave and he sat down on the bed and sighed. She had missed her, really. He lied back and closed his eyes and dreamed of Jenn and her blue eyes.
A few hours later, he woke up. Ape was calling them to come down to dinner. Everyone sat down when Novak asked, "So, where's Jess at?"
Bam and Jenn lowered their heads.
"What?" he asked them.
"He left." Jenn finally said.
"Yeah, obviously. Where'd he go is what I mean."
"No, he's gone. He went to L.A."
"He's moving back there and he's gonna try and work things out with Kelly." Bam added. Ape and Phil looked shocked.
"You two didn't know?" Jenn asked.
"Nope. Why'd he...oh." Ape realized why he left. "I'll be right back." She got up and started to call Jess's cell.
J: Hello?
A: Jess-Jess?
J: Oh, hey, Ape.
A: Goin' to L.A?
J: sighs Yeah, I've decided to try again with Kelly.
A: Hun, it's been over a year. Do you think she'd really-
J: I DON'T CARE! I just have to get out.
A: taken aback Jess, calm down.
J: I'm sorry, Ape.
A: It's your life, Jess. I'm fine with it.
J: Yeah, well, I have to go. My flight is boarding.
A: Coming for Christmas?
J: laughs Yeah, Ape. Night.
A: Night.
