Breaking Down Walls.
Sixteen
Jack.
Waking up hung over is THE worse, I hear talking in the kitchen so I take my lanky figure out of my bunk and walk towards the kitchen quietly so no one can hear me listening in to the conversation.
“Zack are you not worried about some random kid living in your place with you little sister?”
I make up the first voice to be Rian and obviously the second voice is Zack
“She’ll be fine Ri, she can handle herself pretty well, you’ll be surprised. This is the first friend she has had in over a year I don’t want to ruin that for her”.
“But Zack anything could happen to her, you’ve never met this boy either I just think you’re as worried as everyone else is you know”
What are they even talk about is someone living with ivy? What the fuck. No one tells me anything about the girl, I care about her to.
“Of course I’m worried, but I also don’t want to piss her off mate, you know that she will just become even more closed, at the moment the only one of us she talks to is Alex, if I ruin that we’ve had it. She won’t talk to any of us”
“Zack It shouldn’t be Alex she talks to it should be you”.
“I know, but she won’t. if the only person she will talk to is him then, I can’t do anything about it I rather her talk to him than no one, and now she’s got this Dylan kid”.
“I give up Zack, can’t you see that you can’t just run away from her, she needs you not Alex you”
I can’t hear any more, I slowly walk into the kitchen area
“Hey guys”
They just sand there Rian nods at me and walks off.
“What just happened you both look stressed?”
“It’s nothing Jack don’t worry about it”.
“I never get told anything on this bus; do you think I’m deaf?”
“Not at all, if you heard it why are you asking me, go ask Rian he’s the stressed one not me”
“He’s got a point you know Zack” I say quietly I don’t want to annoy him anymore; I know what he can be like.
“Jack you don’t know anything about it just stay out of it, it’s between me and my sister, and it’s up to me who I allow to live in my house”
“Whatever mate”
I say as I grab my drink and walk out. As I’m walking into the back lounge I hear Alex shout
“Guys I’ve got some good news!”
“What’s that Gaskarth” Rian shouts back
“Well you know Ivy, and that everyone has been worried about her”
Except me because no one bothers to tell me about her
Alex.
I look around the back lounge looking for an answer, I can tell that Jack is upset about something and Ri is annoyed.
“Guys lighten up I have news”
“Well tell us it then” Zack sort of glares at me
What have I done wrong jeez. I just wanted to make them feel a bit better about everything that’s going on back in b’more
“Well she’s going out again today! That’s good right?”
I say the last sentence quietly and more like a question
“Yeah” everyone says
“What has gone on with everyone today?”
Jack gets up and leaves the room, he’s never like this. What is going on with this bus, I quickly follow Jack out of the room, feeling the tension rise.
Jack
As soon as Alex has said his piece I get up and leave not wanting anymore arguing which I know is going to break out. I see that Alex follows me, as I walk out of the bus and sit down on bench not far away.
“Dude what’s up with you” Alex ask putting an arm around me
“Nothing man, I’m just fed up with not being told anything about Ivy, I care about her to and no one bothers to tell me anything, not that I want to know right now, it’s just causing arguments”
“Who’s arguing” He looks a little in shock, did he not hear them?
“Rian and Zack” I say sharply
“Oh, why were they arguing anyways?”
“Because of the Dylan, the fact he’s moved in Rian thinks that it shouldn’t have happened, and Zack is worried if he didn’t let it happen she will stop telling us everything, well not us you, Rian told him that she needs to talk to Zack not you, because he’s Ivy’s brother and she should be opening up to him. Zacks just glad that she can talk to you and now she can even talk to Dylan”
“Oh”
is all he says and then just relaxes in his seat
“Dude the arguing won’t go on forever, I’m a bit annoyed with Zack for letting a stranger live there to, it’s not right. Rian is correct she should be talking to Zack and not me but then at least she does have me there, maybe she can’t talk to Zack because she doesn’t want to upset him”
“True, I kinda wish people would talk to me about her to, I may be immature at times but if it’s serious I will be serious to, I can do it”.
“I know man, but I think Zack wanted to keep it quiet, and you know as well as me Mr Barakat cannot keep thing quiet”
“Yes, I can if I need to”
Everyone seems to think that about me, it’s not true I have kept many secrets like I know for a fact that Alex has at least some feelings for Ivy, not that he would ever admit it.
“Go one then tell me one Jack”
“Tricking me now are you?”
“No what do you know about me?”
“I can’t tell you that, it’s a secret”
“Dude come on”
“Okay I think you have feelings for Ivy”
“No way dude. She’s like a sister to me. I have no feelings for her like that”
“Okay”
I knew he would deny it, but I can tell when he first met her, his eyes lit up. Now when he sees her he always has a smile on his face, no matter what has gone on. I’m not saying he loves her, I’m just saying it’s getting there, I can also tell that he doesn’t like the fact that Dylan is living with her, because he wants to be there with her. He would like nothing more than to go home and see how she is.

Notes
I felt like i needed to write in a different persons view, it seems like Ivy, Alex, Dylan and Zack and the only ones that have a say in this story I know they are the main people I just wanted to try something different,
tell me your thoughts please
This is the 3rd chapter I've had up in the past 3 days, I'm getting better guys.
