I Wont Let You Go

2.

-Thursday-

"So you're coming to my game tomorrow right?" Asked Theo for the hundredth time this week. He keeps urging me to go to his game. "If you ask me one more time I'm not going." He smiled. "Thanks Cord." I cringed. "See ya Lia." He walked away as Jake came over to me. "I don't get why you want to go to the game."

"Jake, that's your brother. You have to support him." He rolled his eyes. I understand why he wouldn't. The spotlight is always on Theo.

-Saturday Night-

I went over to the Archibald's to get ready. I curled my hair and did my makeup. I changed into a short tight brownish pink latex dress. I added matching heels, a diamond choker and bracelets.

I walked down to the kitchen and Theo was in there drinking water. "You're just begging for attention." He spat. Its like he thinks I have no feelings.

"Remember when I asked for your opinion? Yeah me neither." I shrugged. "You need to change."

"You can't tell me what to do."

"Cordelia."

I cringed. I don't like being called by my full first name. "Theodore." I crossed my arms. "I'm read- woah." Jake came in. "I'll be waiting in the car."

"Lia!" I closed the front door and walked over to Jake's car. I'm not a little girl anymore. I can do what I please. Its not like I even get any attention from anyone. Jake and I are never noticed and sometimes I like it that way.

Theo stormed out and got in his black Camaro SS. He's taking his car today? He sped off as Jake turned on the ignition. "Do you really wanna go?"

"I didn't get ready for nothin." He playfully shook his head and reversed.

When we got there, we didn't quite know what to do so we walked over to the bar and that's when I was surrounded by a few people.

"Glad you made it Lia." Said Tyler hugging me. I just looked at Jake with confusion and he did the same. "Lookin good Lia." Said Eddie. "Uhh.." "Ok enough." Said Theo walking in between and everyone dispersed. "Told you." He scoffed. I simply turned and grabbed a drink before walking away.


Half way I got bored. I really don't feel like drinking tonight. Im uncomfortable. Guys keep mentally undressing me. I shouldn't have come. I have no clue where Jake is. He said he was going to the bathroom.. 20 minutes ago. He probably got lost or something.. I just hope no ones picking on him. I went to the dining room and took a seat. I'm so not used to heels. "Hey Lia right?" Asked Nate. "Uhh yeah."

"Nathan." He extended his hand out and I gradually shook it. "You look great." "Than-"

"We gotta go." Rushed Jake in dragging a hammered Theo. "issss okay I can drive myssssselff." I sighed as I went over and grabbed his left arm and threw it over myself. "Nice meeting you Nate."

"Nate? What the fuck are you doing with Nate?" Jake and I turned and did our best to stumble out with Theo. "I'll take his car."

"To hell you are."

"It either stays here or I drive it. Your choice." He huffed and rolled his eyes. "I get to comeeeee." I looked at Jake and he shrugged. "Do you even know how to drive?" He asked as I pulled into the street. "I have a license Theodore."

"What the fuck since when??" I couldn't help but laugh. "Summer." "Wow."

"Hey I gotta take a shit, help him upstairs please." Jake ran over to the bathroom and I laughed. It was an entire workout getting Theo up those stairs. He plopped down on his bed. I went over to his drawers to find him a new t-shirt. "Here change into this. You reek." I threw it at him. "Fuck off."

I walked downstairs to get him a water bottle. When I came back up, he was only in his boxers and I couldn't help but stare and gulp. "Here." I quickly handed him the bottle and walked away. I texted my dad that I was spending the night and went to Jake's room. I went through his bottom drawer and found a pair of my shorts and a shirt.

I changed and knocked him a good night and best of wishes for his butt before taking over the guest room.
