The weather was cold, dark, and rainy. But nothing could stop me from my happy mood. I was in a bright red rain coat, and had a bright red umbrella with me. Oliver was coming back to canada, and this time he was coming with his son. And I was way to excited. Oliver was staying in Canada for good this time. He said he was moving here and that he was going to make a move on Indie. See where it takes them. And I believe that it would be a good idea. When I told indie about Oliver coming back, all that ever left indies mouth was "when is oli coming?" "Wht time does the plane land?" "Can he stay with me?" So here I am, thinking that it would be best for all of us, if indie had Oliver stay over at his place. For our friendships sake.
But I mean I cant complain. Oliver was my best friend and indie was another one of my best friends. And I supported the two of them no matter what they were gonna do. And I knew for a fact, jason was the exact same way. Us four guys have become closer than anything.
A shrill squeal of my phone jolts me out of my thoughts. It was Leah. I slide the green phone icon across the screen and hear sobbing from the other end.
"Leah?" I ask as I stop dead in my tracks. "What's wrong?"
"J" she whispers "can you come over?"
"I'm about to head to work. But if you tell me what's up, i can leave babe"
"Bentley is sick and I just need someone to watch him and Brittney for just a few hours. I need sleep. I havent been able to sleep in almost 29 hours and I am tired as hell. I just want a fe-"
"I'll be right over babe" I say cutting leah off before she could even finish her sentence. "Please give me about half an hour. Gotta convince my boss that I can get away and I'll be over. Do you want me to grab you anything?"
"I would love an ice capp" she says (A/N: for you non Canadians out there. An ice capp is a cold coffee drink. Similar to a slushy or slurpee. But in coffee form and its amazing!)
"I got you. I'll be over soon."
"Thank you so much babe" leah says as she hangs up the phone. I smile as I head into my office building, climbing the grueling 8 flights, since our elevator was still broken. Cause the owners were to cheap to invest in a new one, and knock on the door of my supervisor.
I walk in when the deep commanding voice allows me too and shut the door behind me.
"Sir." I start "I'd like to take the day off"
"Leah?" My supervisor asks. I nod. And he smiles "go ahead son" my supervisor was very lenient towards me. He knew that I was always helping leah due to her being a single mom, and no income was coming in right now. Her baby daddy was nowhere to be found, and hasn't paid a single dime for child services. So leah was struggling. But not too bad. She had us. And that was enough for her to keep her head high and her Hope's higher.
"Thank you so much sir" I say as I bow slightly before exiting the office hurrying down the hall and back down the fucking eight flights of stairs. God how I hated these stairs. I ran back Into the pouring rain, this time not even bothering with my umbrella before I rush into the nearest Tim' Hortons. Closest to Leah's apartment. I order her drink and grab a triple triple for me before dashing back Into the rain, and running the remaining three blocks to Leah's house. I knock twice on the bottom window and before long the window opens and I am greeted by a smiling, but tired, leah.
"You made it" she says as she throws her arms around me "thank you so much for coming. I cant thank you enough"
"Leah its fine" I laugh as I hug her tight handing her drink to her "you know I'd do anything for you and the babies. All you have to do is call"
"I know j" she says as she takes a long sip of her cold drink "I needed that! But that's why you were the first person that I called"
"Even before Tamara?" I ask. She nods "damn I feel loved." Tamara was Leah's best friend since grade seven. The two of them became inseparable when leah punched Tony Hawks in the face for calling Tamara fat. And since then the two girls never left each others sides. Ever. Tamara was always over helping with the babies, keeping an eye on them and doing whatever she could to make Leah's life a little easier.
"Tamara and I havent been on best terms lately" she admits
"Why" I ask
"I found her cheating on her boyfriend, and it was with Jason" I shake my head.
"Of course jason was involved" Jason may he my best friend, but that guy was a fucking sex addict. He needed to get laid whenever and wherever he could. If he saw a hot girl, he went for it whether or not she had a boyfriend. And ti be honest, the douche bag has ruined a lot of healty and happy relationships by being a dick and fucking the girls. I mean the guys even fucked enough guys, to last Him a lifetime. But he never quit. If he wanted something, he'd get it. No matter what.
"So I've been trying to mend things with her, telling her that it was her boyfriend who found out about the two of them, not me snitching on her"
"And shes not believing you?" Leah shakes her head.
"No she really wants too. But she says no one except for me knew about the two of them and then all of a sudden her boyfriend found out. Shes really suspicious. That I told him"
"And did you?" I ask
"Never! I love Tamara more than she can Imagine. And I'm not gonna tell her douche bag of a boyfriend. The one who hits her constantly and verbally abuses her. She deserves better and if Jason is what she wants. She can have him"
"I'll talk to jason" I say as I usher her into her room "now please get some sleep"
" again. Thank you so much Jayce" she smiles as she hugs me again before laying down on the bed "call me if you need anything"
"Course. Sleep tight leah. I love you"
"I love you too" she smiles as she rolls over pulling the blankets over her. I glance at the time.
