Jennel's POV:
"I'm waiting for an answer." Selena says, standing above me with her hands on her hips. I'm still lay in the middle of the kitchen with a joint in my hand.
"An answer for what?" Demi asks, walking up behind Selena while sliding her shoes on before looking up and then staring at all three of us. "Shit." She mumbles under her breath, staring at me.
"So are any of you going to tell me what's going on?"
"Um…" I mumble, standing up and then running my fingers through my hair, while still having a half smoked joint in my left hand. Demi glares at me and then mouths at me to put it out.
"Jennel is meeting my sister here, and then I'm driving them somewhere." Marissa says, praise Jesus for Marissa. I stub the joint out while Selena just stands there staring between all three of us, still looking slightly confused as to why I'm in Demi's apartment.
"Okay now how about you tell me the truth."
"That is the truth." Demi says, letting out a sigh and then attempting to pull Selena out of the kitchen. I glance at Marissa as she just jumps off the worktop, walking towards me and then placing her hand on my shoulder.
"You know you're going to have to tell her right?"
"Yea I know."
"Just be there for Demi because she's going to need you, a lot." She says, smiling at me before we're interrupted by Demi and Selena yelling at each other.
"No we're not going anywhere until I find out what's actually happening!" Selena yells, pulling her hand out of Demi's grip and then glaring at her, fuck. Marissa walks out of the kitchen, sending Demi a reassuring smile before walking towards her room.
"Fucking hell." Demi mumbles under her breath as Selena sits on the sofa and then stares at Demi as she makes her way into the kitchen. She walks towards me, she's about to cry so I wrap my arms around her, pulling her close to me and not even caring if Selena is looking at us. "We're going to have to tell her."
"I know, do you think she'll tell anyone?"
"I-I don't know, she might." Demi mumbles against me as I run my fingers through her hair.
"I suppose we should get this over with then." I say, placing my hands on her shoulders and pushing her back slightly before pressing my lips against hers, she smiles against my lips as her arms wrap around my neck. I pull away and then rest my forehead against hers, staring into her eyes. "I had to give you one last kiss in case I can never do it again."
"I love you." She whispers, grazing her lips against mine and then pulling away from me, wiping the tears off her face and then walking out of the kitchen.
"I love you too." I reply before taking a deep breath before following her and keeping my eyes on the ground as I walk towards the sofa that Demi is sat on.
"So are you going to tell me or what Demi?"
"Just shut up for a minute okay, I'm fucking panicking and I don't know what to do so please just shut the fuck up." Demi says, staring up at Selena, she then glances towards me and I slowly place my hand in hers because she looks lost and I know that she needs me to be here for her. Although all I want to do right now is to run away because I can't deal with this right now.
"Just tell me, because it's pretty obvious that something is going on between you two."
"Fine, I'll fucking tell you!" Demi screams standing up and then attempting to walk across the room, I grab he hand and pull her back to the sofa because the last things we need happening is Demi beating the shit out of another teacher. "I'm in a relationship with Jennel."
"How the fuck could you be so stupid? And of all people you chose Jennel Garcia, the drug dealer of the school." Selena says, shaking her head while glaring at me and Demi laces her fingers with mine and squeezes my hand.
"I didn't plan on it happening it just did."
"So how did it happen then?"
"We kind of hooked up the night before I started at the school, and then she walked into my class and I realised that I slept with one of my students." Demi mumbles as I graze my thumb over the top of her hand, trying not to have any participation in this conversation at all.
"And you didn't think to stop it?"
"I tried to, but I just couldn't. Things happened and we kept getting left alone together and we just connected. I don't know it happened and I love her."
"Bullshit, she's an immature teenager that sleeps with anyone and smokes more pot and fucking snoop dog!" Selena yells, I look at her and glare at her while getting ready to hold Demi back.
"You don't know what she's been through so just shut the fuck up."
"Demi it's fine, I know what people think about me." I mumble, keeping my eyes on Selena as she notices that Demi calms down at my words and relaxes next to me again. "But I haven't slept with anyone else while I've been with Demi."
"CeCe." Demi mumbles and I send her a slight glare.
"Okay apart from one time, but we weren't even together then. Demi knows things about me that my own sister doesn't even know. I love her and that's pretty fucking hard for me to admit because that means that I'm letting myself be vulnerable, I'm setting myself up to get hurt but I don't care because being with Demi is worth it." I say, I know I'm rambling but I don't care, Demi is smiling at me like a goofball and Selena is just staring at me in shock.
"Does she make you happy?"
"Yes, she makes me too damn happy, remember those three weeks when I would just turn up to work, ignore everyone and then leave?" Demi asks, Selena nods and Demi continues talking. "That's because we had a massive argument, she moved out and we ended things."
"But then I realised that I need Demi because without her I'm just a moody pot head, so I made Wes take me shopping and then cook the food before Demi came home, and well it made me realise how much I love her."
"And Jennel has a romantic side, she's not all sex and drugs, although she does like to party, a lot." Demi says, laughing as she glances at me, I glare at her, squeezing her hand and then smiling at her. She rests her head on my shoulder and I just smile at Selena as Marissa walks into the room.
"Okay I'm going to Dallas' because too much drama in such a small space." Marissa mumbles, sliding her boots on and then grabbing Demi's keys, leaving the apartment before Demi has time to demand her keys back.
"Marissa Callahan they're mine!" Demi yells as the apartment door slams shut and I attempt to hide the fact that I'm laughing. Demi turns to look at me, glaring at then slapping the top of my arm. "It's not funny."
"It's a little bit funny babe." I reply, rubbing my arm before lightly pressing my lips against her, completely forgetting that Selena is still sat in the room until she clears her throat. "Shit, um sorry." I mumble, pulling away from Demi and blushing slightly as I keep my eyes on the ground.
"Is Jennel Garcia blushing?"
"No she isn't." I mumble, still looking at the ground while Demi giggles and placing her hand in mine, lacing our fingers together. "Okay maybe a little bit."
"You're not going to tell anyone are you? I know that this shouldn't be happening, but I can't lose my job, or Jennel." My Demi says, grazing her thumb over the top of hand while looking at Selena, I gently squeeze her hand causing her to look down at me and give me a slight smile.
"I was going to because I thought that you were just hooking up, but now I know that you're not, even though this is wrong on so many levels and freaks me out slightly." Selena answers, awkwardly giggling while looking between me and Demi.
~~~
I'm lay on the sofa, listening to Demi and Selena talking to each other, although I keep zoning in and out because their conversation sounds super boring and I'm not up the that shit. I sit up, running my fingers through my hair and staring at them.
"What?"
"Seriously just go out." I say from the sofa while Demi is stood in the kitchen with Selena talking about whether they should still go out or not. "I'll be fine Demi, I'm not five."
"I don't want to leave you alone."
"Again, I'm not five, plus I'll call Lauren or Wes to come round."
"Then you'll just get high." She replies, kinking her eyebrow at me while Selena begins laughing, Demi turns to face her, glaring slightly before looking towards me again.
"I'd just be doing that if they didn't come round so what's the difference."
"Yea you have a point, I'll be back later and don't make too much mess. Also no CeCe allowed." Demi says, grabbing her bag and then walking towards the door with Selena following her.
"You know that I don't want her." I reply, standing up and then walking towards her, she smirks slightly as I get closer to her, wrapping my arms around her waist and pulling her close to me. "You're the only one that I want." I whisper, leaning in and then pressing my lips against hers as she smiles against my lips and Selena groan. Demi pulls away, flipping Selena off and then quickly kissing me again.
"I know, but I don't trust her so she isn't coming round, just ask like Wes or Lauren." She says, smiling at me and then walking out of apartment, I walk back towards the sofa and the moment the door slams shut I slide my phone out of my pocket, writing out a text to send to Wes and Lauren.
[8:29pm] Jennel:Yo motherfuckers! Demi's gone out and I'm bored so get your asses round here right now!
I hit send, lock my phone and then lie down placing my phone on my stomach, resting my legs on the arm of the sofa while turning the TV on and watching some random program while I wait for one of them to text me back. My phone vibrates, scaring my slightly, I pick it up and read the message off Lauren before getting one off Wes.
[8:33pm] Lauren:I'm on my way!
[8:34pm] Wes:I'll be there in 10… I'll bring some weed and vodka ;)
I don't bother texting them back, I just stand up and walk towards the door, unlocking it and then making my way back towards the sofa before diving on to it and then lying down, again. I grab the remote and then change the channel, putting one of the music channels on before turning the volume up.
I begin to tap my foot against the sofa in time with the music as the door opens and Lauren walks in, smiling at me while shutting the door behind her.
"Hey whore."
"Oh isn't that delightful, hey slut." I reply as she walks towards me and then sits on top of me, pulling a joint out of her jacket pocket, lighting it before placing it in between my lips and smirking at me. I take a drag and pass it back to her as the door opens again and Wes falls in, holding a bottle of vodka in the air and grinning at us.
I sit up, sliding Lauren off me and then moving over slightly so Wes can sit on the sofa, and he hands me to bottle before taking the joint off Lauren and taking a drag. I push myself up off the sofa, walking into the kitchen and grabbing three glasses as well as one of the two litre bottles of coke that Demi has in the fridge.
"So where's lover teacher?"
"Out with Miss Gomez, who turned up, and now knows about Demi and I." I reply, filling the three glasses with a decent amount of vodka and then topping them off with coke, handing one to Wes and one to Lauren before getting a half smoked joint shoved into my hand.
"Shit, what did she say?" Lauren asks, drinking a mouthful of vodka and coke and then placing the glass on the coffee table.
"That she won't tell anyone because we look cute and Demi's happy, I don't know some crap like that."
"Dude, think you could have a threesome?" Wes asks, smirking at me as I take a drag of the joint, breathing in the smoke before blowing it out and then glaring at him. "Don't look at me like you, you know you'd love it if it happened."
"Okay I'll admit that I'd love it but it isn't going to happen."
"Yea, whatever." I mumble, turning the volume up on the TV and then grabbing Lauren's hand, pulling her up and then dancing around the room with her, constantly taking sips of my drink while Wes just lies on the sofa, smoking a joint and smirking at us. Lauren flips him off as she begins to grind against me and I rest my free hand against her waist.
"So where has my sister ran off to?" Lauren asks, turning around so she's looking at me, her hands rest on my hips as we continue dancing.
"Where do you think?" I mumble, raising my eyebrow at her while bringing the glass to my lips.
"Dallas'?"
"Of course." I reply as Lauren pulls away from me, running down the hallway and into Marissa's room, I don't attempt to stop her, instead I walk towards the sofa and sits next to Wes, resting my head on his shoulder as he wraps his arm around me.
"I like seeing you happy."
"I like being happy, it feels nice." I say, looking up at him and smiling at him, he takes his hat on and places it on my head.
"You have to promise me that if things start going wrong that you won't go off the rails again." He says sternly, I don't like serious Wes. I turn so I'm facing him; I give him a small smile at then move closer to him, resting my forehead against his.
"Wesley Stromberg I promise that ifthings between Demi and I don't work out well that I will not go off the rails, and if I do you have to promise to be there to help me."
"I promise, now give me a hug before I start getting emotional." He mumbles, wiping his eyes because he's about to cry, I let out a small giggle before wrapping my arms around his neck as his arms snake around my waist and he pulls me close to him.
"Okay I'll admit that what I just witnessed was too damn cute." Lauren says walking into the room. "But it needs to stop because I found Marissa's drug stash!" Lauren yells, running towards the sofa and then jumping on top of me and Wes, causing us to become a giant pile of squished bodies and random limbs.
"Lauren get off me." I mumble as I push Lauren off me and she lands on the floor, looking up at me and pouting before opening the box that she's got in her hand. She pulls out a small bong as well as a bag of pills. "I'm not doing pills."
"Why not?"
"Because she's not, that's why." Wes says, looking towards me and giving me a small smile while Lauren groans and shoves the pills back into the box. She keeps the bong out and Wes passes her a bag of weed that he pulled out of one of the pocket on his jeans.
~~~
I'm lay on the sofa with my head hanging over the edge and my legs resting against the back of it, Wes is lay next to me and Lauren is lay in the middle of the coffee table, and of course she's just in her jeans with no top on because Lauren can't seem to stay fully clothed when she's drunk. I suppose that's only an advantage when you're hooking up with her.
Wes nudges me and then passes me the joint that we're currently halfway through smoking, I take a drag and then pass it to Lauren while blowing the smoke out, and she takes the joint off me while quietly singing. The TV is still blaring music and we've gone through three quarters of the vodka that Wes brought with him.
"Y'ano I think I might hook up with CeCe." Lauren mumbles, pulling the joint out of her mouth and then smirking at me, she places the joint in Wes' mouth before he has chance to say anything. Lauren lets out a small laugh as Wes licks my hand and I pull it away from his mouth, wiping it on his jeans.
"Go for it, she's great in bed." I reply, winking at Lauren while Wes just smirks at me and I just ignore him because it's too much effort to hit him.
"Who's great in bed?" Demi asks from the front door, I tilt my head further back so it's almost touching the ground; I smile at her as she walks into the apartment with Selena following her. "It better be me."
"CeCe." Wes answers, holding the joint out to me, I grab it and place it in between my lips, glaring at him before elbowing his side as I take a long drag. I breathe in the fumes before pulling the joint out of my mouth and then holding it out for Lauren to take as I blow out the smoke.
"Fucking hell it smells like a fucking drug den in here!" Selena yells as she kicks her shoes off, Wes quickly sits up and stares at her, I slap the top of his arm and he looks away from Selena, looking slightly embarrassed as he glances round the room. Demi walks towards me and leans in to kiss me but instead places a mint in my mouth; I glare at her and then chew on the mint.
"That was just mean."
"I don't care; you said CeCe was good in bed."
"Well I'm not going to lie she is, plus Lauren said that she was going to hook up with her, I just simply told her to do it because she's good in bed." I reply defending myself while trying to turn around so I'm sat on the sofa properly, instead I end up on the ground causing Demi and Selena to both end up in fits of giggles. I sit up and glare at both of them before Demi pulls me up and then wraps her arms around my waist.
"Sorry baby but that was funny."
"Whatever, you're mean." I mumble, turning my head as she attempts to kiss me.
"So are you, let me kiss you." She whines, pouting at me when I turn to face her again, I let out a sigh before pressing my lips against hers and then smiling against her lips. "So what did you three do other than make my apartment smell like a drug den?"
"Danced, um Wes tried to write a song about fires and Lauren rang a pizza place asking if they'd give us pizza if she made out with the delivery guy." I reply, laughing slightly when Demi stares at Lauren in shock and Selena sits next to her on the coffee table.
"This is my kind of girl, I like her."
"Too many girls in this room, I don't know how I feel." Wes whines, taking his hat off my head and then placing it on his.
"Turned on? Left out? Or alone? Take your pick." Demi suggests, pulling me down on to the sofa and placing her arm around my shoulders before pulling me against her. I rest my head against her while Wes mumbles something under his breath and then begins to stare at Selena.
"Stop staring." I mutter, slapping his arm causing him to glare at me before pushing himself up off the sofa and then walking into the kitchen. "I'm sleepy Demi."
"Come on then, let's go to bed."
"What about these assholes?" I ask, motioning towards the three other people that are in the apartment.
"Well Wes can sleep on the sofa, and um I don't know Selena and Lauren can sleep in Marissa's room." Demi suggests, running her fingers through my hair and then leaning down to kiss the side of my head. "Selena, you okay with sharing a bed with Lauren?"
"Yea whatever, she's not my student." Selena replies, smirking at Demi before getting a cushion throw at her, Lauren begins laughing and then gets hit by the same cushion, but this time it's Selena that's hitting her.
"I hate you all, I'm going to bed."
"Do you hate me?" Demi whines, looking up at me while pouting at me. I shake my head before grabbing my hand and pulling her up.
"No I don't hate you and you know that I don't." I say, smiling at her while Wes smashes a glass in the kitchen causing Demi to let out a sigh as well as rolling her eyes.
"Good because I love you." She replies, pressing her lips against mine before placing her hand in mine and then pulling me towards her room as I lace our fingers together.
"Wes you're a fucking idiot, also you're sleeping on the sofa!" I yell as we get halfway down the hallway, I hear Wes moan about having to sleep on the sofa as Lauren and Selena walk down the hallways and into Marissa's room.
"Come on I want cuddles off my girlfriend." Demi whispers in my ear before kissing down my neck while pulling me into her room, shutting the door behind us.
