“Emily, I’m right here. You can tell him.” Aliyah comforted me because I was taking so long to start talking.
Jaime’s anxiety was showing “Emily, you’re scaring me, just tell me what’s going on.”
I took a deep breath, “Okay, there really isn’t any way to put this lightly.” I paused and took another breath getting ready for the yelling, “Jack didn’t come back last night.”
Jaime gave me a confused look, “Then why were you crying?”
“Because I was terrified I was going to lose you.”
“Why would you lose me? We just got back together.” He let out a nervous laugh and I tried to do the same but failed. The slight smile that I tried to have faded quickly off my face, “Because.” I struggled to get the courage to finish, “I’m scared that I’m going to lose you because mike kissed me last night. That’s what happened.”
Jaime sat in silence for a few second with a shocked look, which made me feel better for a moment. But it didn’t last long, Jaime hopped out of his seat, “Are you kidding me? First Tony, now Mike? What, now are you going to go after Vic to make it the entire group? Can’t you ever just keep your mouth to yourself? Damn Emily!”
“It wasn’t my fault Jaime! I didn’t ask for it, okay? I didn’t ask for Tony to kiss me either!”
“Yeah, but you sure as hell didn’t stop it!”
“How the hell was I suppose to stop it? I was drunk off my ass! No thanks to you guys!” Aliyah came up to calm me down but I pushed her away, “No Aly, I’ve got this now. You can go inside. Just keep the boys inside and away from the door. Especially mike.”
She sighed and walked towards the door, “okay. Just let me know if you need Me.” she left and Jaime was standing in front of me with a look of hatred. All of my tears had dried and now I was filled with anger and confusion.
“I’ve always loved you Emily. So much for you saying the same.” He sat back down and put his head in his hands.
“I do love you Jaime; I do with all of my heart.” My anger and confusion had been replaced with compassion. I crouched down so I was on his level, making look me in the eyes, “How do I know you’re telling the truth?”
“I thought about you every day. I wished everyday that I could be by your side. I always wondered what you were doing, how you were doing, and to be completely honest, who you were doing.” We both laughed and I continued, “ if I didn’t love you, I wouldn’t have told you about mike, I wouldn’t have thought about you everyday, and I wouldn’t be fighting for you right now. If that doesn’t say that I love you, I have no idea what does.” I pushed myself up off of my knees and looked down at Jaime, “Well, I’ going to go inside and let you think this over. I’m hoping that you’ll decide to stay with me. But if you decide not to, I’ll abide by your choice and I will leave you all be. It’ll be like I never existed.” I gave him a faint smile and walked inside. The first person I saw was Aliyah who was standing not too far from the door with a bloody Mary already made for me. When will she ever learn that I hate them? I chuckled to myself as I walked up to Aliyah, “Thank you for the drink that I’ve told you a million times that I hate.”
She laughed and handed the drink to me, “I figured that if I make you drink them enough you’ll start to like them.”
“Well, that’s gonna take a while.” Just I as I took it I heard the sliding glass door open and shut, when I looked back I saw Jaime walk past me, “Jaime?”
He ignored me and went straight for Mike. My eyes grew wide and I dropped my drink to go towards him, “Jaime wait!” but it was too late. Jaime tapped Mike’s shoulder and Mike turned around, right as he did, his face came in contact with Jaime’s fist and the fight began.
Mike was knocked to the ground and Jaime was standing above him and yelling, “Why the fuck would you kiss Emily? Are you retarded?”
Mike angrily pushed himself off the floor, “I kissed her because I love her! I knew that before you even met her!”
“Well if you knew it that long ago why didn’t you make a move on her then? Huh? Why wait until we were happy and dating to kiss her? God, Mike! Why can’t you ever stay away from my girlfriend?” Jaime pushed him and Mike pushed back, “Because you don’t deserve her!”
Vic ran in-between the two of them and put one hand on each of their chest’s to push them apart, “both of you calm the fuck down and lets talk about this like the fucking adults we all are!”
I stood to the side with Aliyah and Tony. We stood silent not knowing what to do. Jaime shoved Vic into mike, “Like you have anything truthful to say! You fucking lied to me about it! You are like my brother Vic and I thought that I could trust you!”
Vic looked at him with sadness in his eyes, “You can trust me Jaime! I lied to you because I didn’t want to see you get hurt.”
“Oh, you really didn’t want me to get hurt? Or were you just making sure that mike wouldn’t get hurt.” Vic stayed silent and Mike pushed him out of the way, “Ya know what Jaime, let settle this like men. Let’s beat the fuck out of each other and get it over with.”
“Kay, let’s do this.” Everyone was just standing around watching and I wanted to do something but I had no idea what to do. I stood in place with my scrambled thoughts trying to figure out what I could do. The last thing I want is to have the muskers called and have a huge ruckus in my apartment; well more of one that I already have. I really don’t want to have to move for a reason like this after 3 years of a perfect record. God, what on earth do I do now?
By the time that I snapped out of my head Jaime and Mike had started fighting. I knew it couldn’t go on any longer so I did the first thing that came to mind; I jumped in on it. “You guys stop!” all three of us struggled but I finally got myself in between them and pushed them apart and they both stopped. “Both of you calm the fuck down! I do not want any fighting going on in my apartment and I do not want the muskers called! Now when I move, you both are going to stand up, straighten your clothes and talk about this.”
They both nodded their agreement and all three of us stood up. Just as I let my guard down, Mike turned to hit Jaime but missed and hit me square in the face knocking me back a few feet.
“Oh my god, Emily are you okay? I didn-” mike stepped towards me and everyone gasped in shock. I held up my hand that wasn’t holding my face (that I could already feel starting to bruise.) and cut him off, “Don’t even say anything Mike. It’s fine. It was an accident. Now are you two going to sit down and talk about this or am I going to have to do the one thing that I despise most that might also end up getting me Charlie and Aliyah kicked out?” everyone was looking down and the boys wouldn’t even answer me. all of the anger from the negative energy in the room was building inside me and I couldn’t take the silence, “Ya know what. The party is over. Everybody get out of the apartment. I do not want anyone else here, Aliyah you can because you live here but everyone else get out. Now.” Everyone sighed and started out the door. I opened it for them and Jaime was the last one out, he paused and looked at me, “I am so sorry Emily for everything that I said and that happened. I didn’t mean anything that I had said to you; hell I wasn’t even mad at you. I was just furious at Mike. Again, I am so sorry.”
I didn’t make eye contact with him, “it’s okay, you had every right to be angry at me. But, I don’t want to talk about it right now. I’ll call you tomorrow. In the mean time, I’m going to bed.” I shut the door without letting him reply and went straight to the kitchen to get ice and then my room. Just before I closed my bedroom door I looked back out at Aliyah, “I’m sorry Aly.”
She looked up from the floor, “For what?”
“For ruining your night with my drama. I’ll try to make it up to you I promise.”
“It’s fine, Emily. I promise you that. I would rather that be done today than tomorrow or any other day for that matter. I’m sorry that you got hit.”
I laughed and touched my cheek, also wincing at the pain, “It’s okay. I should’ve been paying attention. You can sleep in Charlie’s room, I personally thing she’ll be staying at Tony’s tonight.”
“Okay, well I’m going to go to bed then. I love you, babe. Sweet dreams.” She smiled and disappeared into Charlie’s room and shut the door.
“You too, Aliyah. I love you too.” I weakly smiled and shut my door, ready for the sleepless night ahead of me.

what the fuck does life have in store for me next.
