"Jeremyy!" I hear a high pitched voice say she knows his name is Jeremiah she's known him for years and they practically dated last summer. "Taylor" He says back. She walks in and sits her stuff down on the floor and sits on the couch. "Belly's upstairs" I tell her. "okay" she says and continues sitting on the couch. "What are you making cause i'm starving she ask me."
"Well me and JEREMIAH were making pancakes and eggs." i say trying to get her to notice how i said JEREMIAH and not Jeremy. "You should go check on Belly and tell her foods almost done." i say trying to get her out of here. "okayyy" she says getting off the couch and waking to the stairs.
After she walks upstairs i look at Jeremiah. "what did you see in her?" i ask. "To be honest i just wanted to make you jealous." he laughs. "It didn't work." i say knowing damn well i'm lying. "maybe i should try it again then." he says staring at me for a reaction. what the fuck?
"Do it and i'll fucking kill you." i say smiling at him. "I was just kidding, she's way to clingy." he laughs. "and blondes aren't really my thing." he added. "mhm, then what is your thing?" i ask. "short and brunette and hella attractive." he says. He just described me, i know he's talking about me cause i see him smiling from the corner of my eye.
We finish cooking and the moms get home just in time. Me and Jeremiah set the table and Belly, Taylor, and Conrad come downstairs.
Susannah is standing next to me pouring drinks while i'm cutting cheese for Conrad's eggs. She looks at Taylor and whispers in my ear. "Taylors here?" she says in a annoyed tone. "yep, sadly" i whisper back. Susannah loves everyone but she does not like Taylor.
"You should invite Paisley here" she says a few seconds later. Susannah loves Paisley. Here is a reminder of who Paisley is (Rosalees, Best friend)

"Sure i'll ask her!" i reply. Now that i think about it i haven't really talked to Paisley at all since i got here. "lee lee are you going to eat honey?" susannah says as she walks to the table. "Yea, sorry i was distracted." i say as i sit down beside Conrad.
Taylor starts talking about a party she went to at her boyfriends house or something to be honest i wasn't really listening. After i eat a little bit I text Jeremiah.

"I'm gonna head out." i say getting out of my chair. "I'll go with you." Jeremiah says. "Can we go with you guys?" Taylor ask. "NO" me and Jeremiah both say almost immediately after. Susannah starts laughing "Okay byee!" i say dragging Jeremiah out the door. "Thanks for breakfast you two!" my mother yells from the kitchen. We get in his fastback mustang and drive off. "where do you wanna go?" he ask. "I don't really know i just couldn't be in there any longer" i laugh. "Yea Taylor ruins the mood, when is she leaving?" he ask "the day after belly's birthday." i respond. "wanna go to the board walk?" He ask. "hell yeah."
Flash back from 1 year ago in the summer. Jeremiah and Rosalee were 16. (Jeremiah's pov)
Me and Taylor have been talking for a few weeks now. It felt weird, like it was not supposed to happen. Taylor's supposed to visit the summer house today because belly's 15th birthday is tomorrow. I get bored so i go see if anyone's home, I scan the upstairs and the only person i see is Rosie. Shes wearing the sweater that my mom bought me, conrad, belly, steven, and Rosie for us to match. and she's wearing Red plaid pajama pants, She looks good in everything. "Hey Rosie" I sit on her window couch. She looks up from her book and gives me a warm smile. "hey jere, do you need anything?" she says i zone out "i-uh...no" i struggle to get out.
she laughs, God her laugh. "what are you doing then?" she ask looking back at her book. "uh" Damn Jeremiah come up with something. "WAITING FOR TAYLOR TO GET HERE." I blurt out. Her smile fades away. why the hell did i do that? "cool." she says "yeah" i say getting up from the couch and walking out of her room. i close the door and lean back on it. I hear a sigh come from the other side of the door, i feel terrible.
The doorbell rings, that must be Taylor. I go downstairs with Belly and she opens the door. "Belly!!" Taylor says as she hugs her. "Hey Taylor." i say "Heyy" she says moving her hair behind her ear, she tries to much. that's the thing about Rosie she doesn't have to.
"Your not gonna get my bags? she ask." "i'll get them." i sigh and walk upstairs. a few hours pass and we are planning on going to a party for belly's birthday tomorrow. Me and Conrad sit in the front on the car and Belly and Taylor sit in the back giggling the whole time. We get to the party and the girls go order shots while me and Conrad sit at our booth. "You and Taylor, really?" he ask. "I don't even know" i say. "I thought you and Rosa were a thing" he says. "nope" i sigh, i wish. The girls get back with the drinks and we dance for a little bit but Taylor starts dragging me to the bathroom.
we enter the bathroom and she locks the door. She starts kissing me and i pull away. "Taylor what are you doing?" I ask concerned. "Aren't we gonna fuck?" she ask. "Taylor i-" i start saying but she interrupts me. "Come on! it'll be fun and you can brag to your friends that you lost you v-card!"
I try to tell her i don't want to but she insists so i go along. and it was horrible.
i remember getting home and grabbing a bottle of whiskey and trying not to cry.
