I whirled around, shoving him in the chest.
"Fuck you, Jax! What do you even know aboutanything? Just fuck off!" I yelled.
Jax shook his head, slamming the door as I sank to the floor, crying.
I reached for my phone with trembling hands and a broken soul.
There was only one person who would understand.
22
THEODORE
Exhaustion is my middle name.
Despite this, seeing my girl in a fucking towel, perched on a bed looking like the most beautiful woman in the world, only made me even more alert.
For a start, Hannah was on edge.
She bit her lip and chewed on her hair while she talked and struggled to make eye contact with me.
Something was up.
Ihatedlying to her. But I had to; she didn't need to know the truth. If she did, she wouldn't have gone. However selfish it was to want her here with me, I didn't want her to miss out on the residential after doing so well in her finals.
I'd make prom, for sure, so I skipped this one.
Bad idea.
I can't stop thinking about Hannah.
Every day I saw her brother Ryan, and he just nodded in my direction.
I missed her cute laugh, her sexy eyes, and of course, her company.
I was delivering pizzas to save some extra cash; I'd been looking into how much baby furniture was, and it floored me. There was so much to consider, and I couldn't expect Lissa to do that alone.
I sighed as my phone lit up, and I saw it was Jax. Immediately I panicked; it was way too late for a matey catch-up.
"Yo."
"De Luca. Listen, something has gone on. Just hear me out."
"Is Hannah alright?" I barked, sitting bolt upright.
"She's fine."
Something in his voice told me otherwise.
"Right…"
"Look, Theo…I don't know how to say this, but…I saw Hannah kissing a guy."
What the fuck?
If Jax would've punched me in the stomach, it would have had less effect. I tried to speak, my heart hammering in my chest.
"What fucking guy?" I snarled, grabbing my car keys.
