Chapter Five

Jinxx's POV

My palms were sweating and my breath was coming hard. How on earth was I supposed to explain all of this to her? In all of my life, I never thought that I would ever put myself in this position. I thought that I'd always be faithful to the girl that I loved, but it seems as though I'm not.

"Just do it, Jinxx" I mumbled to myself as I sat in the car outside of Andy's house. "The worst that can happen is that she slaps you, but you can get her back if you try. Just be a man, Jinxx." With those final words, I shook myself a little and then got out of the car. How was I supposed to go about this? I could always just come right out and say it or I could sit her down and explain it softly. I'd be there for her if she cried and I'd tell her how much I loved her and then give her some space. Andy was right. If she really does love me, then she'll find a way to forgive me and take me back.

As soon as I knocked on the door, all of my rational thinking disappeared and I began to get restless again. Would it be so bad if I just ran away now and faced this another day? Of course it would be.

The door soon cracked open, ending the personal argument I was having with myself. "Jinxx, what are you doing here?" Riley asked, cradling Zane to her chest. Her hair was dishevelled, leading me to believe that she had had a rough night with the kids and she wouldn't be too happy if any more drama went down today. Well, she was going to be in for quite the treat.

"I came to speak to Sammi" I answered, gulping hard as I wiped my palms off my jeans.

"Are you being serious?" She questioned. "Look, I've been up all night with Zane. He's teething and you coming in to talk to Sammi is going to end in shouting and then I'll have another restless night. I think it's best if you just leave it until next week" She started closing the door, my chance of talking to Sammi becoming even slimmer…until I jammed my foot in the door and she opened it again. "Seriously, Jinxx?"

"Please just let me in" I pleaded. "I won't be here for long."

"Fine, but don't make anyone cry" She sighed, stepping aside so I could get in. "Sammi, Jinxx is here" She called. Sammi was sitting on the sofa with her red hair tied up into a loose bun. Her eyes showed anger and confusion as she looked up at me. It took everything in my strength to not lose myself in her eyes that were rimmed in black eyeliner.

"Jinxx, what are you doing here?" She asked as she sat up and looked closer at me. "Are you finally going to give me a reason as to why you broke up with me?" Yeah, that was a pretty stupid move on my part.

"Sammi, I think we need to talk about this like adults" I sighed as I sat on the sofa by her. "I was stupid to try and hide why I broke up with you from you."

"Damn straight" She whispered. "You made me so confused. I didn't know how I was supposed to put right what I did wrong because you wouldn't even tell me what I did wrong."

"Sammi, you didn't do anything" I mumbled, taking her hand in mine, surprised she would actually let me take it. Sammi was a real sweet girl, but she had a fiery anger too. "It's me."

"That's such a stereotypical breakup line" She chuckled before turning serious again. "Will you just hurry up and tell me why you done it."

"Fine, jeez, you don't have to be so pushy." I said. "Well, I got a little drunk one night when I was in a bar and there was this girl. Well, I kind of kissed her."

"Are you being fucking serious?" Sammi questioned, her hands balling into fists. "All of this time, I've been blaming myself for you idiotic behaviour when it was because you were a dirty little liar."

"Sammi, calm down" I soothed. "I was drunk and it meant nothing."

"It doesn't make a difference" She shouted. "You still done it. I wouldn't give a shit if it meant the world to you. You saw what happened when Scout kissed Andy. Hell, they were prepared to give Zane up for adoption. Why can't you just learn from their mistakes?"

"I'm an idiot" I sighed. "Sammi, I didn't mean to ruin our relationship. Please, just think of how we were before I done this. Just think about how happy we were."

"Yeah, we were so fucking happy that you thought it was okay to go and kiss another girl" She snapped, standing up and leaving the living room to go to the kitchen where Riley was. What the hell am I supposed to do now?

Sammi's POV

Disbelief was coursing through my veins. My Jinxx, the boy who's been there for everything has cheated. That was the one thing that I never thought he would do. As soon as I entered the kitchen, Riley was attacking me in a hug.

"What's happened?" She asked. "You seemed pretty mad back there."

"Oh, you don't know that half of it" I grumbled. "I am pissed at him. I suppose Andy knew that he had gotten up to. Did he tell you?"

"I am so confused right now" Riley said. "Andy knows what?"

"That Jinxx kissed another girl" I shouted just as Andy walked in. "Did you know that Jinxx done that?"

"I see you found out then" Andy sighed. "Yes, I knew. I just found out yesterday and the only reason that I didn't tell you was because it wasn't my place. This is between you and Jinxx."

"Great move, Andy" I whispered. "If you were really concerned about my feelings, you wouldn't have let me spend the whole night worrying about what I apparently done. You would have told me as soon as you heard." I stormed straight back out of the kitchen and into the living room. I probably shouldn't have said that to Andy. It just seemed as though everyone was out to get me.

Andy's POV

I stood stunned in the kitchen as Riley shook her head. "Jesus, you can't do right for doing wrong in this place." I finally sighed.

"Don't worry about it, Andy" Riley assured, wrapping me in a quick hug. "She's just upset about what Jinxx done, but she's not going to blame you for anything. As soon as she's calmed down, she'll be fine with you again."

"Ah, I love you, babe" I whispered, pressing my lips to hers as I tried my best to ignore the shouting coming from the other room before Zane started to wail at the noise.

"Man, you can't get a moment of peace in this house" Riley grumbled, pulling away from me to see to Zane.

Jinxx's POV

"Look, I think it would be best if I just left and came back another day after you've calmed down" I shouted over her insults.

"Don't even dare" She snapped. "Who do you think you are? How dare you tell me that you've kissed another girl and then play the victim."

"I'm not the victim here" I sighed. "I just don't think we can discuss anything if all you want to do is shout at me"

"Fine, just go and please don't come back for a while" She whispered. "I swear to God, if I see your face again, I'll slap it into fucking oblivion." With that said, I left her to cry in fury. She had every right to make those threats to me.

Sammi's POV

As soon as the door was snapped shut, I sat back down on the sofa and buried my head in my hands. Even though he had kissed someone else, I still felt myself wishing that he would have stayed and wrapped his arms around my shoulders and kissed me until I felt better. With a little bit of work, I knew that I could forgive him, but I couldn't tell if it was the right choice to make.

"Hey, Sam" Riley whispered, using the nickname she gave me when we were just kids. "Are you alright?"

"What does it look like?" I laughed through my tears. "Ugh, I'm a wreck over a boy. Five years ago I would have laughed at something like that, but now it hurts like hell."

"Hey, Sammi, don't cry" Andy mumbled, taking a seat next to me and giving me a hug.

"I'm sorry for what I said to you, Andy" I whispered. "I'm a bitch."

"No, you're not" Andy assured. "You're just a fiery girl who was angered by her boyfriend."

"Is it okay if I stay here for a little longer than planned?" I asked, knowing that I was probably pushing it a little. Andy and Riley practically had a full house already with two of the residents under three years old. God, that must be so difficult.

"Of course you can" Riley laughed. "God, did you even have to ask? You know that you're always going to be welcome here."

"Thanks, guys" I sighed. "I'm just going to get some sleep before I start screaming at people again." Riley gave me an assuring smile as I walked up the stairs to get away from them, so I could cry properly.

Riley's POV

I knew as soon as Jinxx walked in that this was all going to go to shit. I just hadn't expected it to be as serious as that.

"Hell, that was one dramatic day" I groaned, leaning back next to Andy as he wrapped his arm around me.

"Yeah, it was." He agreed. "At least we'll get some peace now."

"That's the best thing you've ever said all day" I laughed as I closed my eyes. It looks like being a mom, a good friend and a fiancée really does take its toll on you.

"Seriously, you didn't think me telling you that I loved you was the best thing I've said today?" He questioned. Oh, and just when I thought I could get a little bit of sleep.

"Yeah, I meant that" I lied as I grinned. "Oh, why don't we plan a little bit more of the wedding. We can think about dresses."

"Daddy, come play with me" Savannah gurgled as she ran in from the kitchen with a doll in her hand.

"Oh my god, whatever happened to getting some peace?" Andy asked as he got down on the floor with Savannah and done her bidding. How the hell did I land such an amazing guy? Christ, I have quite the family.

Well, I hope you enjoy this chapter. I felt as though a little more drama should be added. Anyway, I'll just apologise for making people wait so long for this update. I honestly didn't think it would take this long. Oh, and thanks so much for any reviews people have given me and for people who have favourited (is that even a word) the story and put it on alert. It really means a lot and keep it coming XD
