“I fucked-up tonight. I didn’t want to tell you, but I also didn’t want you hearing it from someone else. I need it to come from me.”
“What do you mean you fucked-up?” Her voice sounds so small right now, almost as if she’s back to being withdrawn from me.
“I slept with Jordan.” If I could throw Dirty under the bus, too, I would, but that’s not what my brotherhood is about. “I was angry, and getting drinks, didn’t give a fuck. Didn’t think I’d feel this immense guilt, but I do. And I have to say I never want to feel this again.”
She stares at me a moment before dropping her eyes and wraps her arms around herself. “Is that it?”
Narrowing my eyes at her I step close, and she retreats. “Yes,” I say tersely.
She nods and looks up at me but not making eye contact. “I promised Kara a sleepover tonight, I’m just going to grab my pajamas and head back to her.” She swallows thickly, tears in her voice.
“Jen, I need to know you forgive me,” I practically beg her.
She shakes her head. “I can’t right now, West. Just give me time.”
With that, she grabs her things and leaves the room. I sink down on the bed and pray like hell I didn’t just ruin everything between us.
Chapter Twenty-two
Jennifer
He cheated, not evena week into our relationship and he cheated. Is this how Justine felt when she found out about Hangman? Probably worse because they were with each other for months before she found out. On one hand, he came to me, told me right away. On the other hand, he still tore my heart out of my chest and stomped on it.
I don’t know if I can forgive him, he promised me we’d try but the first chance he got he fucks Jordan. Something she’s probably giddy about right now. I know how she feels about him, and he just, literally, gave her hope.
Makes me wonder what tomorrow will be like when she sees me at the apartments for our weekly checkup and tests. Will she rub it in my face, will she feel ashamed? What about the other girls there, will I see pity in their eyes?
Shaking off my thoughts I use the bathroom in the hall to get changed, I could have just changed in the bathroom in our bedroom, but I needed to get away from Rage before I lashed out and did something that would get me killed. Quickly changing I head back out and past Weston who seems like he heard what was said in my room. He gives me a pitying look and I wish I could smack it off his face.
“If you want me to help you kill him and hide the body, I’m up for it.” he says, giving me a small grin.
I laugh, and swat him away. “He’s your dad, your loyalty should be to him,” I say.
“Pfft, fuck that, he wants to lose the best thing that’s ever happened to him then it’s on him. I’m team Jennifer.”
I give him a grateful smile and head back to the living room with Kara. Nick and Kyle both wanted to spend the night with their mothers, so they left just after supper. When they came to the door to get the boys, they chatted me up and smiled. Saying how happy they were that their dad finally has a good woman. Which shocked me because I thought they hated me just like I know Weston’s mom Kyla does.
