Wherever it takes us

Chapter 25

"Why would you even ask that! That's disgusting Jackie !" Calum Says through coughs

I shrug "it was funny, you look like you're daddy"

Genesis gives me a death glare
People need to chill

"I'm kidding damn" I smile and go back to eating

The rest of dinner was silent and awkward none of us said much

Calum and Genesis were out on a date and God knows where Luke and Ashton are .

I had two days til graduation and I don't know what to wear , what about my parents attending , finish my speech and more. I'm getting stressed out .

I walked to calums room to put my toms on, walks always helped me clear my head

I made my way out the hallway and elevator

The moon was bright and there was a fresh breeze

I followed wherever my legs guided me , at this point I was walking for a good 40 minutes and i honestly didn't know where I was .

"Jackie ?" I turn around and see Wesley

"Oh my god Wesley!" I nearly tackled him to the ground

He put his hands on my waist holding me steady while I wrapped my legs around his torso squeezing him in a hug

"Are you okay? How's everything ? Are you hurt?" He asked a lot of questions in about 5 seconds

I nodded and he set me down
"I'm fine, everything is just crazy right now"

He puts his arm around my shoulder and starts walking with me

" oh yeah I heard about everything , your mom told my mom and well you know "

I bit my lip and looked down in shame
Did all my friends parents have to know ?

"It's fine you know how our parents are " he tries to lighten up the mood

"Yeah I guess "

He stops and sits down at a random bench
"Come sit " he says

I Sit and bring my feet up
"I want to talk to you" he says

Here we go ...

"About what?" I ask

"That day at the beach .. Last time I saw you"

I swallowed hard just thinking of the horrible moment I lived after I saw him there

"Yeah ?"

He lets out a deep sigh and runs his fingers through his long hair

"Well you see ... I just .. Luke.. Well he ... "

"Just spit it out Wes"

" I don't want you getting close to Luke, he's ...he's not a good person Jackie "

"Why does everyone keep saying that "

"Just think about it. Why is he homeless now why is he always on the run -"

"That doesn't mean he's a bad person!"
Why am I defending him!?

"You don't know him like I do, I don't want you getting hurt Jacqueline , that day At the beach Luke was getting followed and they knew that wherever you were Luke was and they were chasing Luke, they didn't find him and they took you . I swear I almost killed him!"

"Who's they!?" I ask
"I can't tell you that Information, not yet atleast "

I roll my eyes

Why do people tell you a story but don't say it complete

Wesleys phone rings and he answers

"Yeah - okay- be there in 20- fine 15- don't push it!" He hangs up "sorry about that "

"It's fine , it was nice running into you Wes, I missed you and thanks for everything " I smile

He returns a warm smile and pulls me into a hug

" love you baby girl , just please please listen to what I told you okay?"

I hesitantly nod
"See you around " he says and walks away

Why am I putting so much attention to a guy I met two weeks ago !!?

I sigh in frustration and continue walking

Before I knew it I recognized this neighborhood
It was my house .. Well my parents house street

I shook my head and made my way down the street a couple of blocks away to Michaels house

I knocked on the door two times and waited for the door to be opened

"Coming!" Someone says
The door opens and there stands a shirtless Michael with some gray sweats and white socks
"Jackie? What's wrong ? What are you doing here ? Is everything okay? Are you hurt ?" He asks

I look down and play with my fingers

"Yeah everything's fine I just needed a break and just came to visit if that's okay "

He nods and steps aside granting me entrance

I step in and automatically notice a small figure laying on the couch
"Oh sorry if I interrupted anything I don't want your daughter waking up"

He lightly laughs and shakes his head
"She's fast asleep she won't wake up" he shuts the door behind me and leads me to the dining table "what's on your mind?"

I look up at him and force a small smile
"I'm just so stressed and confused"

"What's stressing you out ?" We both sit across from each other

"Graduation, my parents , my living situation and L... both you and Luke"

He grabs my hand and kisses it
"Babe I don't want you stressing over any guy especially someone who you hardly know and me, focus on the important stuff that is graduation and your family , I'll always be here, you know that right?" His thumbs start drawing circles on my hand and I nod

"Thanks Michael"

"Anytime " he gets up and walks towards the fridge

I examine his now faded hair and smile
He has always loved changing his hair color
Memories of me dyeing his hair flooded my head and I couldn't help but smile

"What are you smiling at?" He asks
"Just memories" I smile

"Of us?" He places my favorite Capri sun in front of me

I thank him and nod

"I know that smile and stare anywhere , good memories eh?" He sips his juice

"Yeah!"

After a few minutes of spilling my feelings , talking about just everything And bonding again I say my goodbye but Michael being his protected self drove me to Calums condo

"See you at school" he says
"Yeah , thank you Michael and goodnight !" I kiss his cheek

"Goodnight babe " he returns the Kiss but turns into a peck

My cheeks flush and I rush inside the building. I make my way to Calums condo and open the door quietly , instead of everyone sleeping there sat Calum, Genesis , Ashton and Luke . All four digging holes in my skin with their eyes as soon as I walked inside .
