Storytelling

Logan’s POV
It’s been a few weeks since orientation and things have been alright I suppose. Jackie and I are closer than we’ve ever been but she’s been avoiding Harry ever since orientation and the mall. Whenever I brought the subject up, she just shut down and would try and change the subject. It was driving all of us mad and by all of us I was talking about Louis, Zayn, Perrie, Danielle, Liam, and Eleanor. It drove Harry to the point where I haven’t even seen him smile which kind of worried me. I was just finishing up my last class for the day when I looked out to see Harry standing outside of the studio. When people started walking out, he quickly made his way into studio to ask me his daily question.

“Has she said anything?” he asked and I always gave me answer which would cause him to frown.

“No,” I replied.

“Ugh!” he exclaimed and balled his hands into fists.

“Hey I’m trying my best Harry,” I said, “She has walls ten stories high. I don’t know what else to do but try to break them down.”

“You’re not doing it fast enough,” he mumbled and I sighed as I stood up and pulled my dance bag on my shoulder.

“Well if I had a fucking wand I would make everyone’s problems go away,” I muttered and Harry sighed.

“I’m sorry Logan,” he said, “I just really, really, really like her and I want her to know that but she won’t even give me the time of day.”

“It’ll happen trust me,” I said, “Maybe we can work some magic on Friday when we have movie night.”

“You told her!” he exclaimed and I just laughed.

“I dropped the bomb last night while we were watching Grey’s Anatomy,” I said and he just shook his head.

“On a different topic, you’ve been avoiding Louis the past couple of weeks,” Harry said proudly.

“Who had to point it out to you?” I asked and he frowned.

“You always assume someone has to point it out to me,” he pouted and I just laughed, “And it was Perrie. Whenever someone mentions a hang out with everyone you somehow have something to go do for a dance class.”

“So I’m busy,” I said getting a bit defensive, “I am here for school Harry not social hour.”

“Or someone could be jealous of a certain someone,” Harry said and I rolled my eyes.

“I am not jealous,” I said.

“Oh really?” he said as his eyebrows rose.

“Positive,” I said trying to convince both him and myself.

I don’t know what it was about Eleanor but she just rubbed me the wrong way when she was around Louis. She was a really sweet and nice girl don’t get me wrong but whenever Louis was around and she was around she somehow made him have all his attention on her. I tried to ask Louis what their story was but whenever I had a chance things came up and I could never do it.

“Then you don’t mind that Louis and Eleanor are coming this way,” Harry smirked and my eyebrows furrowed but then I tried to act normal when I saw Louis grinning widely at me and Eleanor smiled a small smile.

“Lo-Lo! Hazza!” Louis exclaimed.

“Hey Lou,” I said smiling lightly, “Hey El.”

“Hey Logan,” Eleanor said, “Hey Haz.”

“Eleanor,” Harry said smirking down at me, “Louie.”

“I thought you had class until eight tonight Lo-Lo,” Louis said and I smiled lightly.

He always got my Tuesday/Thursday schedule confused with my Monday/Wednesday/Friday schedule.

“Nope I get done an hour early today,” I said, “You guys are coming to movie night right?”

“Duh,” Louis grinned, “I wouldn’t miss it for the world! We’re watching Risky Business right?”

“It’s eighty themed as of right now,” I said, “so I think it can make an appearance.”

“Yes!” Louis exclaimed.

“Risky Business?” Eleanor asked.

“Lo-Lo loves eighties movies,” Louis said, “It’s one of her favorite movies.”

“Oh,” Eleanor frowned.

“Well sorry to be rude but I promised Jackie I would help her with her Calculus homework,” I said making up a lie.

“But you don’t take Calculus,” Louis said eyebrows furrowed.

“She took it last year,” Harry answered for me giving me a ‘you’re-so-lying’ look.

“How do you know that?” Louis asked frowning.

“Bye guys!” I exclaimed and rushed off to the dorms.

Friday Morning
I was currently just lounging on the couch (http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=83498702) in the living room trying to go over my notes for my teaching dance class when Jackie walked into the room being a drama queen like she has been ever since the what I call “The Incident” and flopped on the couch.

“I want to die,” Jackie exclaimed flopping on the couch and throwing her arms over her face.

“Oh quit being a drama queen,” I said, “You just don’t want to deal with Harry.”

“And you’re going to avoid Louis at all cost tonight too so what’s it to you,” Jackie said in a sour mood.

“I am not,” I said.

“Bullshit,” she said, “You like Louis and for some reason you’re pushing him away.”

“You’re doing the same to Harry,” I said and she frowned.

“I am not,” she mumbled.

“Bullshit,” I replied just like her.

“You’re so difficult sometimes,” she continued to mumble.

“Let me make you a deal,” I said looking at her changing the subject so maybe I could find something out to help Harry.

“What kind of deal?” she asked a bit intrigued.

“Since both your classes and my classes are cancelled for the day and we have all day before everyone comes over here why don’t we give each other our life stories,” I said, “I tell you mine and you can tell me yours.”

She thought about it for a minute before she cautiously spoke.

“You’ll tell me everything about you?” she asked.

“Down to the scary details about my panic attacks,” I said and she looked at me shocked.

“You get anxiety attacks too,” she whispered in shock.

“Yeah,” I replied, “A lot more then I’ll ever admit to anyone but you.”

“You’ve got yourself a deal then lady,” she smiled at me and we shook hands.

“Do you want me to start?” I asked.

She nodded her head yes and I took a deep breath. No one and I mean no one knew everything about me the last person to ever know everything about me was Beau and he used it to break me into nothing. I closed my eyes and looked at her.

“So what do you want to know?” I asked.

“Well we all know the basic stuff like favorite color, food, animal and stuff like that but you’ve never really talked about your family,” she said, “I know you’re mom and brother died in a car accident and you get really touchy about the subject but tell me about them.”

“Well,” I took a shaky breath.

Just thinking about my mom and brother brought tears to my eyes and lump in my throat but I knew I was going to have to do this sooner or later.

“Well,” I repeated myself, “My brother and mom died when I was sixteen. It was the night of my audition for the American Ballet which is a really well-known ballet company around the world when I got news of it. My dad, mom, and brother were on their way home from my brother’s soccer game which was in Bakersfield, California when they were hit from behind by someone. They were then launched into the intersection and they had two cars hit them from both sides of oncoming traffic. My dad was the only survivor while my mom and brother died on the scene. Some people say I was lucky to find out after because they say when things like that happen and apparently they have it ruins the tryout. Well I got in but I couldn’t agree to the contract, I needed morning time and that’s what I did. My dad was upset because he knew that’s what I wanted to do with my life but at the time it just wasn’t right thing to do, so I stayed in school. However as the years went on my relationship drifted from my dad. He spent more nights at work and it soon came to the event that my father told me one day that he couldn’t look at me without seeing my mother and he couldn’t handle it anymore so he moved out of the house. He told me that he would pay for everything I needed but I couldn’t be around him anymore. I just remember my sophomore year of high school feeling alone because my father wanted nothing to do with me. My grandparents had died when I was younger and my parents were only children so I didn’t have extended family, so I was all alone. I was pretty much a weird loner kid my junior year because I lost all my friends and I was so focused on studying because I thought it would fix my relationship with my dad. Then I met Beau when I was senior. He was kind, gentle, cute. He slowly took the walls I put up from being alone for so long. Well after Christmas things changed with Beau. He was more secretive and never answered my calls or texts. Soon he started ignoring me all together. Then I soon heard rumors about things I had only told Beau.”

“Like what?” Jackie asked quietly.

“I used to cut myself,” I whispered looking at my hands feeling the tears fall down my face, “It helped me cope with my overwhelming feelings. He told everyone that I was a depressed, crazy girl who begged him to date me so I could normal.”

“Logan,” Jackie said and I couldn’t look her in the face.

“I’m not proud of it,” I said feeling a bit angry, “And I don’t need your pity. I got enough of that to last me a fucking lifetime.”

“I’m sorry,” Jackie whispered and I sighed.

“I’m sorry,” I replied, “I didn’t mean to snap at you.”

“It’s alright,” she said, “I know what it’s like to feel alone.”

My head then snapped up and I looked at her.

“I have no family,” she whispered and I saw her eyes tear up.

I quickly then crawled across the couch and hugged her tightly. I knew that there was more to the story but at the moment I wasn’t going to press her because I understood how much courage it took to put trust in people when everything you’ve ever known has been ripped away.

“Well you can count me as your family,” I whispered as we both cried.

After a few minutes of crying and holding onto each other, she gave me some information about her.

“Want to know my horrible boy story?” she asked me sniffling.

“Go for it,” I said.

“I was used for sex,” she sobbed not evening giving no background story, “And I don’t want that ever again.”

Then it clicked. She was pushing Harry away because she thought he just wanted sex.

“I have one more deal to make you,” I said as we wiped our eyes.

“What?” she asked sniffling, “Is it going to make me cry?”

“No,” I said smiling lightly at the poor joke that made us both crack a smile.

“Then what is it?” she asked.

“You have to talk to Harry tonight,” I said, “And I will do the same with Louis.”

“What do we have to talk about?” she asked.

“We have to make up with them,” I said, “Harry knows you’re avoiding him and so does Louis.”

“Alright,” she sighed, “Just so long as you do the same and you don’t let Eleanor intimidate you. Besides I don’t know why your intimidated by her your just as pretty as she is. I personally think your prettier.”

“Pfff please,” I said, “I bet you ten bucks they dated last year.”

“And I bet you twenty that Louis likes you way more than Eleanor,” Jackie said and I just rolled my eyes.

“You’re on,” I said and we shook hands.

Tonight was definitely going to be interesting to say the least.
