Jordan was kind enough to let me stay with her in her dorm but I didn't want her to know everything. I just told her that my parents were out of town for a few days and I didn't want to be in the house alone. She told me I could stay with her until my parents get back. She didn't know anything about my situation and day by day it became harder to hide it from her and Sarah.36Please respect copyright.PENANAGkeXxoRb5l

I felt like more of a burden than anything else and it was weighing me down having to lie to them constantly about where I live. The only person who honestly knew anything was Ian, and it wasn't by choice either. 36Please respect copyright.PENANArWmpjxFd6a

My mom had been calling me nonstop and texting me to answer my phone. I wasn't ready to talk to her yet. I still had hate brewing in my heart from our last conversation and couldn't bring myself to forgive her. 36Please respect copyright.PENANAY2MdDqo0Eo

I knew deep down if I really had no where to go, I'd have to stay here, with my dad. I couldn't let it come to that. It hurt too much to even think that was my only option. The way he was wouldn't allow me to stay here with him. Especially with my mom gone there was no one left to protect me. Not that she did much of that when she was here anyway.36Please respect copyright.PENANA8mmCkam3qq

I got up and got an old duffle bag from my closet and began packing all of my essentials into the bag. I fit most of my belongings into two duffle bags. Anything I couldn't fit into the bags I threw away. 36Please respect copyright.PENANA5nSx3JLTFq

I quickly closed my door in a panic and stood behind it as I heard the keys successfully unlock the front door. The footsteps wandered into the kitchen and the fridge opened.

Once I reached the school I went straight to Jordan's room to put my stuff down. She wasn't there but her door was cracked. I texted her to let her know I went ahead and put my things in her room.

I popped my head up from my phone and looked at him. He was looking at himself in the mirror fixing his hair. He still had a white towel wrapped around his waist and I was starting to wonder if he was just going to stay like that the whole time. I remember him mentioning being in football which explained his body type. He was more buff than Ian and a little shorter. He had a round face and short light brown hair. His eyes were dark blue like an ocean and very pretty for the brief moments I saw them. He didn't really look or make eye contact with me for longer than a few seconds. I assumed this was because he was practically naked and didn't want to make things weird.36Please respect copyright.PENANAcH9lvAaJ9W

He had a point. It feels like I've been around Ian a lot lately. Plus him walking in on us in bed naked together didn't exactly help me argument. 36Please respect copyright.PENANAnxEaT6Jlib
