American Honey
Chapter 7
Jason just let out a heavy sigh as he took a seat on the bed not liking where this conversation was going. To be honest though he was surprised those two lasted this long, it had been a week since their car broke down leaving them stranded in this small town and Jason was still shocked at how it all turned out and was nowhere ready for it to come to an end.
"Please Sonny, I can not be in this town anymore." Carly begged as she moved to face the man. There was only so much suntanning a person could do and that was all Carly had done in the last week.
"We have to wait for the car." Sonny tried as he stared at the blonde, knowing that he was fighting a losing battle. The mechanic had ordered the wrong part and it was going to take another week in the least to get the right part.
"To hell with the car, I already bought the plane tickets and it's leaving in two hours." Carly exclaimed as she stormed through the door that joined the two rooms.
"Carly, will you just count to ten." Jason sighed as he followed her the room, watching as she shoved all of Sonny's things into a suitcase.
"No, you have no right to tell me what to-do. Even since you met that girl you have forgotten about me." Carly hissed as she continued to pack her things.
"My brother is making the best of a sucky situation." Emily countered as she walked into the room.
"Yeah, for some small town skank."
"You are just upset that Jason hasn't been at your beck and call." Emily argued as she walked back into her and Jason's room.
"Well someone finally found a backbone." Carly yelled as she followed the younger women, "If you love this place so much, you are the one that can wait for the car to get fixed, while the three of us fly back to the real world."
"You're leaving?" Emily asked ignoring the blonde and looked straight at her brother.
"Of course he is." Carly answered for him with a smug smile.
"I was not talking to you." Emily snapped as she moved around the room and grabbed a towel and placed it into her bag.
"We are going to talk about this." Jason sighed as leaned against the door frame.
"There is nothing to talk about, the tickets are already bought." Carly snapped.
"No one is talking to you Carly." Emily repeated as she moved around the room.
"Where are you going?" Jason asked as he watched his sister move around the room, trying to change the subject.
"I have plans." Emily answered as turned to her brother, "Not going to tell you where since we are now keeping secrets."
"Emily, I have not made a decision yet. I wasn't even aware of this plan till five minutes ago." Jason defended himself as he went to stand in-front of his sister.
"Jason, we all know what you are going to-do." Carly interrupted, "Sooner or later you are going to see that I am right, so let's save us all some time and just back our bags and check out." Carly added as she walked over towards her friend, "And Emily is more than welcome to stay here." Carly smirked as she glared at the younger woman.
Before Emily could say something there was a knock on the door, Sonny quickly made his way over to the door, "Hi, I think I might have the wrong room." Sam smiled as she looked at Sonny.
"Maybe, I can help you?" Sonny smirked as he looked Sam up and down, but was quickly pushed out of the way by Emily.
"Don't mind him." Emily greeted as she pulled Sam into the room, "Just give me one second and than we can go." Emily added as she hurried into the bathroom to change. Sam just nodded as she looked around the room, slightly uncomfortable till she met Jason's gaze.
"Hey." He smirked as he walked up to her.
"You must be Sandy." Carly blurted out as she blocked Jason's path to Sam, "I am Carly, Jason's best friend, but I am sure he told you all about me." She added as she placed an arm around the taller man.
"It's Sam actually." Sam corrected as she gave the blonde a once over, "It's nice to meet you, actually Jason hasn't mentioned you at all." Sam smirked as she walked up to Jason and pulled him into a kiss. Jason was quick to respond lifting Sam up so her legs wrapped around his waist.
"Ready." Emily called as she entered the room, but stopped when she saw her brother and Sam, who were in their own world. Jason let out a groan as Sam pulled away, he gently set her back down but not before he pulled her in for one more kiss.
"All set?" Sam asked as she fixed her shorts. Emily just laughed as she turned to Jason, "See you later." Emily said as she hugged him.
"So, you are ditching me for my sister?" Jason asked as he grabbed the back of Sam's shorts when she tried to walk away.
"Oh, you are on to me. I am only with you for your sister." Sam laughed as she swatted Jason's hand, "We are going to the beach." Sam added as Jason pulled her towards him.
"Let them so Jase, you need to pack anyway." Carly interrupted as she sat on the bed.
"You're leaving?" Sam asked confused as she turned to face Jason, "I thought you were still waiting on the part."
"Well you can't be that important if Jason didn't tell you, Emily here was nice enough to stay here and wait for the part. While the three of us get back to the real world and out of this hell hole." Carly informed as she glared at the smaller woman, "Jason needs to get back to Courtney anyway." She continued. Jason just stood unsure what to-do, he placed a hand on Sam, who just brushed it off before walking towards the door.
"Someone needs to muzzle you." Emily snapped as she stood in front of the woman, "Sam, you really can't take anything..." She started as she turned to face Sam, before she was interrupted by Sam.
"Do you really have that little self confidence?" Sam asked as she turned towards the blonde, "I want to hear this all from Jason, not some woman who is threatened by any other woman." Sam added as she turned towards Jason, "So, has this week been a lie? Was I just someone to keep you entertained while you were stuck here?" Sam questioned.
"Sam, everything I have said to you in the last week has been the truth." Jason answered as he grabbed her, "I am not ready for this to end yet." He finished looking her in the eyes.
"That's what I thought." Sam smiled as she pulled Jason into a quick kiss, "Well are you just going to sit there? I thought you had a plane to get ready for." Sam smiled as she looked at the blonde who was standing up.
"Are you really going to let her talk to me like that Jason?" She asked as she walked to the two.
Sam just gave the woman a sweet smile before turning away her, "Ready Em?" Sam smiled as she motioned to the door. Before turning back to the blonde, "I am not like other girls, I am too smart for your little mind games." Sam snapped before she slapped the woman, "I'm in Jason's life, until he says otherwise, so get over it." Sam added before she grabbed Emily's hand and lead her out of the room.
