the soft boy ~ J.H.

~ chapter 23 ~

after my conversation with riley i went downstairs to find the boys to tell them my plans for the next few days but they weren't there, then i heard shouting coming from the game room so a ran to them. i walked in and sure enough they were all there, josh anthony quinton and griffin were all playing on the xbox and jaden kio and bryce were watching them
"heyy" jaden said to me when i walked in as he came over and hugged me digging his head into my shoulder "hey" i asked slightly confused as me and jaden aren't usually all touchy in front of the boys "he missed you" bryce said with a smug look on his face "i was only upstairs" i replied as i placed a kiss on jaden cheek. he looked up at me and he looked tired "jay you look tired" i told him "i'm fine" he responded "jaden go to sleep, come on" i said as i grabbed his hand and dragged him to my room and onto the bed, he laid his head on my stomach and wrapped his arms around my waist as i played with his hair until he drifted off to sleep, it was only 2pm but he looked as if he hadent slept much over the past few days, although i don't think any of the boys had with all the moving about but anyway.

after i was certain jaden was asleep i wiggled out of his grip and went back to the game room, i sat down in between bryce and kio and bryce put his arm over my shoulder "you good kiddo?" he asked as i sighed "ye, oh by the way i'm going out with my friends tomorrow and i'm having coffee with riley the day after" i said as i smiled and as i said riley kio turned to look at me "who you going out with tomorrow?" anthony asked while playing his game, although he took off his headset so i knew he was listening to me "dixie, charli, avani, nick, ryland, chase and tayler" as i said dixie griffin looked at me and anthony looked at me when i said avani "okay you all need to chill, it's not my fault you're dating my friends" i said with a laugh "hey, how come addison isn't going?" bryce asked me and i looked at him with a 'are you serious' look "a. she wasn't in my friendship group b. she doesn't like me" i replied with a 'duh' tone "she does like you" bryce said trying to convince me even though deep down he knew it wasn't true "okay call her, call her right now and put her on speaker and ask her" i ask as i crossed my arms and all the boys stopped there game to watch this, josh got out his phone and started filming "you can't put this on social media josh" bryce said as josh put his phone down and looked slightly sad, bryce called addison and she answered

"hey babe, what up?" addison asked nicely from the other side of the phone, i'm sure she is nice when your friends with her
"i just wanted to ask you something" bryce replied, i could tell he didn't want me to be right, it would break him if me and addison didn't get along so he keeps pushing it away but he need to know
"okay what's up?" she asked through the phone
"urm, you know anthony's sister?" bryce asked quietly
"urgh, morgan? ye why?" she said in a bitchy tone which was all i needed to here to know she didn't like me
"are you two like, close or friends or anything?" bryce asked now knowing the answer
"urm, no i don't really like her to be honest" she said and i could tell she was rolling her eyes, i just stood up and was about to walk out when i heard bryce say something that caught my attention
"okay well then i think me and you need to talk later, can you come over i want to do this is person" i froze and turned around to bryce who has tears in his eyes
"urm, ye i guess i'll be round soon, bye" addison said as she hung up

i looked at bryce who looked like he wanted to cry "we will give you a minute" kio said as he practically pushed the rest of the boys out of the room, i walked over to bryce once the boys had left and sat next to him, i pulled him into a hug and he just silently cried as i cradled him like a baby. after a few minutes he pulled away and looked me in the eyes "bryce, why?" i asked him still in shock "you're like my sister morgan, i'll always put you before any girl" he said with sniffles and tears in his eyes, i just hugged him again "come on, i'm dedicating the rest of the day to make you feel better, after addisons come round we are going to chick fil a just me and you okay?" i asked him as i held out my pinky and i saw a smile grow on his face, i hate seeing bryce upset, he's my bestfriend and i'll do anything to make him feel better "okay" he responded with a chuckle as he grabbed my picky with his. i grabbed his hands and pulled him up, he picked me up and threw me on his back as he ran down the stairs to the boys who were sat in the living room except jaden who was still sleeping. bryce put me down on the kitchen counter and grabbed a packet of takis for us to share "you know i meant what i said, i will put you before any girl morgan" bryce said which seriously made me smile, it grew a taki in my mouth and replied with "me too bryce, if you and jaden didn't get along, you come first, you always have" he smiled at me and kissed my forehead. bryce is seriously the boy i trust the most, and anthony but yanno, i've known him since i was 5 and he protected me back then, he will forever be my number1 and i love him to pieces.
"love you idiot" i said to bryce as i gently pushed his arm "love you more dumbass" he replied as he pushed back.
we were play fighting which resulted in me being on his back trying to get his to the floor which obviously wasn't working cause bryce is ripped, also he was so going easy on me, when someone knocked at the door and josh went up to open it, addison walked in like she owned the place, she walked over to me and bryce and gave me a dirty look, i instantly felt uncomfortable, in my own home, i got off bryce and walked over to the rest of the boys, anthony instantly engulfed me in a hug noticing how uncomfortable i am around her, her and bryce walked upstairs and bryce gave me and apologetic look as he walked away, i gave him one back as they disappeared into bryce room. we all were just talking about our relationships and me, josh and kio were talking about olivia and riley when we heard addison shout "ARE YOU SERIOUS, ALL BECAUSE OF THAT SLUT!" then we heard the door slam and saw her storming down the stairs, she came straight up to me and slapped me across the face, i was shocked, i didn't want to cause a fight but she asking for it, i push he away from me and she fell, i stood up and laughed slightly as i walked away towards the door to open it for her to leave when she jumped on my back "GET OFF ME YOU PHYSCO BITCH" i shouted as i fell forwards causing her to be on top of me. we were just rolling around if the floor until i felt a pair of arm pull me away, it was jaden and bryce had addison "IF YOU HAD JUST STAYED IN FLORIDA NON OF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED, YOU SLUT!" she shouted in my face as she pushed out of bryce grip and stormed out of the house
