Numero Dieciséis

I rolled out of bed, to find myself very sluggish and sleepy. I walked downstairs and into the kitchen. Only to find Jordan and Eric standing there screaming at each other. Great. They didn't notice me. "ahem." I cleared my throat, preparing myself for what was to come. They both turned towards me and said nothing. "Leave Rae alone." Jordan yelled at Eric. "She came here on her own. So apparently she wanted to talk to me not you. What things not going so well in the bedroom between you to?" "Eric shut the fuck up." I said. "Rae we are leaving." Jordan grabbed my arm and pulled me towards to door. "Jordan, stop. I can get back on my own you didn't need to come down here." "Get your stuff, you are coming with me." I could tell he wasn't going to leave me here so I ran up stairs and grabbed my stuff. As we started walking out the door I turned around and mouthed 'sorry' to Eric. I felt bad for bringing him into this. I put my stuff in the back seat of Jordan's car and got into the passenger seat. This was gonna be one awkward ride, plus the fact we have to take a plane. Unless he planned to drive the whole way which would even be worse. There was a lot of tension in the car and neither one of us said anything. I felt a little bit of relief when I noticed Jordan was pulling into the airport. That meant I wouldn't have to spend as much time in the car with him. We walked onto the plane and took our seats. Ten minutes of silence and finally Jordan spoke up. "So how was Eric's house?" He asked in a snotty tone. "Jordan don't be like that." "No really Rae, I'm really just wondering why you would go to Eric instead of me, you're own fucking boyfriend. I mean does he really mean that much to you?" "Can we please not talk about this right now? There's a lot of people around." "No, you're not getting out of this we are talking about it. So how was your night last night, did you guys fuck? psh why am I even asking." "Jordan you really think I would do that? That's great to know." "Yeah well what am I supposed to expect? I mean, honestly." "Jordan how many times do I have to tell you. I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking. I just wanted to get away." "Yeah well next time maybe you should start thinking. I don't want you talking or seeing him anymore." "You can't tell me who I can and can't talk to." "Do you want to be with me?." "That's not even fair Jordan and you know it." He said nothing. The rest of the trip we just sat there in silence, once again. Every once and a while a fan would come up to Jordan and he would give them his autograph. Apparently I had fallen asleep on Jordan's shoulder because I woke up to him shaking me. "We landed." He said to me in a dull tone. We walked into the parking lot where his car was waiting for us. Another car ride in silence. I once again fell asleep, this time to be woken up in the driveway of my house. "Jordan why are we at my house, I'm not going in there." "Yes you are." "Can't I just stay at your house for a couple of days." "Rae, I'm sorry but I need some time to think. I just need some space." "Well than take me to Eliegh's." "I already talked to your dad. I told him I would bring you home." "Thanks a lot Jordan. Just what I need. You siding with my dad. You know what forget it." I got out of the car, grabbed my stuff and started walking away." "You know it's not like that." "Whatever Jordan, go have your 'space'." I opened my front door, only to have my dad awaiting my arrival.
