"Guys, they'll be here any minute!"
"Mira, calm down!" Grace laughed at me. Ok, so I was freaking out. But the guys were coming over, and when I say guys, I mean KENDALL. Not that I don't already love Logan and Carlos, but they've become my brothers, like James. And they're taken. Kendall however...now he's available. And cute.
We were all dressed casually in jeans and nice shirts; who knows what we'll be doing tonight? It's truth or dare! So the doorbell rang and the girls laughed at me. Alright, I may have squealed. I ran to answer it and found...
Logan. And Carlos. And their girlfriends, Camille and Stephanie. We had met the two of them yesterday, but had no idea they were dating the guys! So we invited them in, and we all sat down to munch on snacks. Kendall rang the bell a couple minutes later. I let him in and got a hug! Ah!
So we got ready to go and the 9 of us sat in a circle. Callie took out her iPad and opened the app. We set it to mature (we're all adults here, right? Or we're supposed to act like it). Logan was just about to press it when the bell rang. I went to get up, but Sarah told me she'd get it. So we were just chatting, wondering who it could be and in walks...
Jo. Jo. Jo?! Why is she here? "Oh I invited Jo; I hope you guys don't mind."
No, no of course not Camille. I don't mind that Jo just came into my new home, sat down next to my crush, and kissed his cheek. Oh and he smiled at her. But no I don't mind. WHY THE FUCK WOULD I MIND, RIGHT? It's not like we're dating, or that he suggested we might. Oh yeah. HE DID.
I faked a smile and invited her into our new home and asked how she liked the place. At least, I think that's what I said. I wasn't really functioning. I hope I didn't curse her out. Oh my fuck. Her hand is on his knee. Breathe. Breathe. You don't know what's going on.
So we start to play, and Logan picks truth. We start out simple, trying to get to know each other a little bit more. Sarah asks him when his first kiss was. He proudly answers 13. 13?! How does this happen? So Jo's next to Logan and spins. She picks dare and Camille just HAD to say "Kiss the guy you like in the room." So she reaches over, pulls Kendall to her and plants one on him. Right. Across. From. ME.
I'm seething. Hopefully, it's not showing. This bitch knew. She knew, and she's using it against me for some weird reason. I think back, trying to remember what I said at the pool... I never spoke about Kendall. Not one word.
So Kendall's eyes suddenly open, as if it just hit him that I'm sitting RIGHT HERE. He looks over and gives me an "Are you ok?" look. No. No, Kendall, I'm not. I pretend that Sonia is calling and excuse myself. I leave the living room and attempt to calmly walk to my room. I pull out my acoustic, my beautiful baby Jamison, and start playing. For some reason, this always soothes me. Grace comes in and sits on the bed. She says something about Jo. I'm not even listening. I shake my head at her. I just want to be alone. She gives me a hug and leaves, closing the door to let me have my peace.
I'm not going to let her have that satisfaction. I get up and walk back to the room, apologizing, saying something about a headache. He won't look at me. I want to stand up and yell at him, tell him to at least say SOMETHING, but he remains silent. A half hour later, the tension is just downright awkward, and Logan takes the initiative to leave. Dear God, thank you for sending me this smart boy. Kendall just walks out. I hope he's embarrassed. Jo comes up to me and says "I hope you didn't mind. I was his longest girlfriend, y'know. I think we might get back together". She smiles sweetly and walks out.
Yeah bitch. Get out of my house. It is now around nine, so I decide to call my sister. She's always there for me. So I call and begin ranting. I think she put it on speaker because I can hear James asking her questions in the background. She is silent, taking it all in. When I'm done, she says to get some sleep, that I have work tomorrow. I thank her and say good night. Oh shit. Work. That means staring at him through a glass wall. Well, fuck.
NEXT MORNING
SONIA'S POV
At 8 in the morning, I march down the hall to my boyfriend's apartment. I know he's up, but he hasn't left yet. I knock on the door, banging my fist to the wood until he finally opens it, looking half dead.
"Sorry, Jamie. But we need to fix this. NOW. I mean, who does she think she is? First of all, she was in MY baby sister's house, then she has the nerve to kiss the guy she likes, then say they're going to get back together? This chick is straight up ballsy. I wouldn't be surprised. Bitch looks like a man, too. I mean she could be Kendall's brother, forget even looking like his twin. And who the fuck does this shit?" I stopped to take a breath and James jumped in.
"Sonia-"
"And I mean, it's not even like it's her place to do that, y'know? God, just PISSES ME OFF!"
"SONIA" he says louder this time. I looked up this time and said softly, "What?"
"Darling, you're rambling..."
"James, we...-actually I think I might let that one slide." I said with a smirk.
"Good cause I like it." He winked. "But really, Sonia? She looks like a man?"
I sighed. "I'm sorry. I'm not trying to sound like a complete bitch, but I just can't believe they did that to her." Of course, at this time Kendall himself came out of his room, half asleep.
He walked past and mumbled a good morning. He was answered with a smack upside the head from James. Yup, that's my man.
"Hey, dipshit, you better fix this. You fucked up this time, Knight."
"God dammit I know that James! I'll talk to her when we go to work."
I walked up to him. "Remember when I was friends with Jo? I told you if you hurt her I would export you to some godforsaken place and you would never be found again. Well, lemme just tell you, Mr. Knight, the offer still stands, even more so if it's Mira you're hurting. And I can add Jo's name to the list, too." I stared him down and then left the apartment, calling out bye to James.
I was not gonna let these fuckers hurt MY sister.
