Chapter 11: James In New Jersey?

'What is he doing here?' I thought to myself. Things are just happening so abruptly and I need some time to think about these things. What's wrong with them? Why are they doing this to me? It's like my whole world is spinning very fast right now.

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"I was asked to be the DJ of my friend's party here in New Jersey. He's like a brother to me that's why I can't say no to him." He responded.

Oh right. Now I remember. He was one of the greatest DJ in Brooklyn. I could still reminisce those moments when he would bring me to one of his parties and he would mention my name infront of the crowd, telling everyone how much he loves me. I could also still remember that one moment when he was about to surprise me but he failed because he happened to buy in the flower shop where I was working. Well I forgot to tell him that I was working there. I was really laughing when I saw him paying for the bouquet with my name written on the small card that is attached to it. He was so shocked to see me sitting on the cashier's seat that the bouquet almost fell off from his hands. I can't deny it but that was some of the good old memories we used to have.

"Oh well, good for you. Goodluck for the party. I hope you'll do well. Bye." I was about to hung when he responded immediately.

"Wait Emma. I was wondering if we could see each other? Tonight at eight? Well that is if you're free. I'm gonna pick you up. Just please give me another chance Emma. I swear I won't waste it this time. Please Emma." He pleaded. I can't help but cry on the thought of him doing all of these efforts. If only he didn't cheated on me, we wouldn't be in this kind of situation.

"I'm sorry James but I can't. Take care. Have a lovely evening." I hung up the phone quickly before he could say anything again. As much as I wanted to see him, I also do wanted to talk to him. I miss him. And even after all the things he have done to me, I still love him.

After the long drive, I was back to the hotel safe and sound. I rush upstairs and went inside our room. I didn't saw my mom but I did saw a small note placed above the dresser.

"I'm going outside to have a dinner with my friend. I'll be back later. I hope you had a great time with Alex. Mom xoxo."

I rolled my eyes after reading the note and laugh at thought of me and Alex together. 'Alex? My mom is really having mental issues.' I blurted. This day has been one of the hardest days in my life. I wonder if I could wake up tomorrow without bearing this pain in my chest. But I still need to sleep. I changed into my pajamas and went directly to bed.

It was already midnight when my phone vibrated and I woke up in great shock. I hate it when something wakes me up in the middle of my sleep. I opened my phone and I recieved a message from an unknown sender.

"Look outside your window."

I peek outside and it was Drew standing near the porch. 'What's wrong with him?' I rub my eyes and went to the wardrobe to change my clothes. I went downstairs and there I saw him standing near the porch. He's drunk.

"What are you doing here?" I groaned.

"Emma.. I'm sorry." He sob.

"You're intoxicated. You should be home right now." I blurted.

He was about to say something when he suddenly vomited on the ground. I can't stand looking at him like this. He needs to rest.

"Hey Drew, let's go upstairs." I went near him and I placed my arms around his waist while his arms are hung in my shoulders. We went upstairs and I let him sit on my bed. I gave him some water and he drank it all the way down through his throat. I grab a wet towel and wipe it to his face.

"You should have some rest." I said.

"Thank you Emma." He gave me a sweet smile and lay down in my bed.

He closed his eyes and I can't help but stare at his beautiful face. Everything about him is so perfect. 'Why am I saying these things? After what he did to me earlier, I should be mad at him.' I groaned to myself. I decided to sleep in my mom's bed since I don't want to sleep beside him.

"Emma?" He snap.

"What?" I responded.

"I.. Nevermind." He replied and I can tell that he's smirking again.

I still can't believe that we are sleeping in the same room. 'What's happening to the world? James in New Jersey and Drew sleeping in our room? This is really making me crazy.' I wondered. I closed my eyes and found myself dreaming of spiderman again.
