《Little Rebel》Chapter 37
Advertisement
The end of the summer was nearing.
Cameron and I are still going on strong and are with each other all the time.
I guess you could say I've changed.
Changed from who I was before the summer at least.
I don't want to go back home, because maybe I'll change back. I like myself a lot more now.
I mean, I also don't want to go back because I'm gonna miss Cameron and Kian and everyone else, but I'm scared of whats going to happen to me.
But I'm trying not to think about that too much though.
I was currently cuddling with Cameron in the living room as we watched a movie.
"Jord." Kian came in the room.
"Yeah?" I asked, looking away from the tv.
"It's Mom." He said, handing me his phone.
I sighed and sat up, grabbing the phone from him as Cameron paused the movie.
"Hello?" I said, Kian walking out of the room.
"Hi Jordyn." She said.
"Hi Mom." I said, leaning back into Cameron.
"So summer is almost over and school is starting soon." She said, going straight into it.
"Yeah, I'm aware." I said.
"When are you coming back?" She asked.
"Do I have to?" I asked.
"Yes Jordyn, of course you do. You need to be home with your family and finish school." She said, sounding exasperated.
"But I am home with my family." I said quietly.
Cameron hugged me and rubbed his hand up and down my arm.
"Jordyn." Mom snapped.
"What?" I said.
"A few months ago you hated your brother and refused to talk to me because I sent you there." She said.
"Yeah, well things change. Isn't this what you wanted? For me to have a better relationship with Kian and for me to change?" I snapped.
"Yes of course, but it is time to come home." She said.
"I am home." I said.
"Jordyn." She sighed, sounding done with me.
"I'm done Mom, call Kian back later to discuss MY wants and needs. Bye." I hung up and threw the phone on the couch.
"Jord..." Cameron said.
"Don't, just hold me." I said quietly.
He wrapped his arms around me and we just sat there.
"What did she say?" Kian asked.
"I hung up on her." I said.
"Why? What happened?" He asked, sitting next to me on the couch.
"She said I needed to be home with my family, and I told her I already am, and she was being unreasonable, so I told her to call you back later and hung up." I explained.
"Jordyn, I think it would be best for you to go back and live with Mom and Dad while you finish school." Kian said.
"You don't want me here?" I asked, staring at him.
"What are you walking about? Of course I do." He said, grabbing my hand.
I didn't look at his face, just stared at our hands.
"I just think it would be best for you to be in a stable home with people who can actually take care of you." He said.
"That's what this is." I said.
I knew I sounding whiny, but I didn't care.
"Jordyn, you know that's not true." He laughed.
"I know, but I don't care. It's worked for the last couple months." I said.
"Yeah, but you weren't in school. And we have a ton of stuff booked. We are all going to be traveling a lot more, and you wouldn't be able to come with us because of school, and then you would be home alone, and then you wouldn't go to school and it would just be a mess." Kian said.

"You know he's right." Cameron said, nudging me.
"I know." I sighed. "But I'm scared."
"What are you scared of?" Kian asked.
"Myself." I said, but it came out as more of a question.
"What do you mean?" Cameron asked.
"I don't want to change back to the person I was before. Everyone here has helped me so much and I actually like who I am." I shrugged.
"Babe, just because you aren't around us all the time, doesn't mean your all of the sudden going to change again. It took a while for you to change while you were here with us, and you're not going to change back as soon as you go home." Cameron said.
"Yeah, I guess." I said.
"Jordyn. Go home, finish school. This is your senior year. You will want to be with Perrie and your other friends. Then, this summer, you can come back. Maybe you'll even decide to move here since you will be done with school." Kian said.
"Alright. I'll go back to finish school. But I am definitely moving here when I'm done with school." I said.
"Whatever you want." Kian said.
"Now I'm going to call Mom back and tell her you said you would go home." Kian stood up and grabbed his phone, leaving the room.
"I'm gonna miss you so much." I said, looking up into Cameron's eyes.
"I know Jord, I'm going to miss you too." He sighed. "But we are going to Skype and FaceTime as much as we can, and text and call everyday."
"Obviously." I said. "Now can we finish our movie?"
"Of course we can." Cameron laughed, hitting the play button and the movie resumed.
#####################
School started in less than a week, and it was decided that I should finally go back home so I could do all the necessary shopping and get ready for my senior year of high school.
Kian and Jc threw a party the night before, inviting a whole bunch of Youtubers and other people, so I could see everyone before I left.
It was hard to say goodbye to Andrea, Jenn, Lauren, and Arden.
I had become really close with all of them.
Going to them to talk about Cameron when I needed to or just to get away from the thousand boys I was with everyday.
I had already decided as soon as high school ended, I was moving out here with Cameron.
We weren't going to let distance affect our relationship.
After the party ended, we all stayed up all night, sitting around the bonfire talking and even filmed a few videos.
It ended up being pretty emotional, but I still loved it nonetheless.
Ricky was currently loading my bags into the car as we all sat in the living room, not talking.
I was sitting on Kian's lap while Cameron had gripping tightly on my hands.
"I'm really glad I came here." I said, my voice cracking.
"Me too." Everyone said quietly.
"I never would have been able to heal my relationship with Kian, I definitely wouldn't have had any relationships with any of you, except Sam. You would have stayed 'my annoying brother's annoying friend'. And I would still be bitter and single." I said.
Everyone laughed and Cameron smiled at me.
"You all changed my life." I told them.
"You changed ours." Connor said.
I smiled at him.
"We should probably go." Kian said, looking at the time on his phone.

All of us piled in the car, not caring that there wasn't enough seats.
I was on Cameron's lap, leaning my head on his shoulder and playing with his fingers.
"I'm going to miss this." He said in my ear.
"Me too." I said.
I didn't want to cry. I wasn't going to cry.
We arrived at the airport and all got out.
Sam and Jc were carrying my bags as I held tightly onto Cameron's hand with both of mine.
I got my bags checked in and it was time to say goodbye to them.
I let go of Cameron's hand.
Trevor came forward and hugged me. I hugged him back as tight as I could.
"I'm going to miss you Trevy." I said into his neck.
"I'm gonna miss you too Jord. Make sure to text me and FaceTime me and everything." He said.
"Of course I will." I smiled at him.
Jc came forward and picked me up around my waist.
I wrapped my arms around his neck and buried my face into his hair.
"You're like a little sister to me Jordan. I'm gonna miss you so much." He said.
"I'm going to miss you too Jc. I love you." I said, squeezing my eyes shut.
"I love you too." Jc said, as he put me down.
I reached forward and grabbed Ricky.
"Thank you so much. For everything. You gave the best advice and was my best friend. I'm going to miss you so much and if you don't text me or anything I'm going to kill you." I said, hugging his as tight as I could around the waist.
"Jordyn, of course I'm going to text you. I'm going to be texting you so much you're going to get annoying with me and set a certain ringtone for me so you know when to ignore it." He said.
"I'll never ignore you." I said.
Ricky kissed my head and I let go.
Nash came forward and hugged me.
"I'm going to miss you Nash." I said.
"I'll miss you too Jordan." He said.
"Please cut your hair." I said.
He just laughed and let go.
Connor wrapped his arms around me and I hugged him tightly back.
"I'm going to miss you so much Con." I said, laying my head on his shoulder.
"I'm going to miss you more Jord." He said, doing the same.
"Not possible." I said.
"Yeah huh." He argued.
"Nu-uh." I said back.
"Ok, my turn." Sam said, pulling us apart and wrapping his arms around my waist.
My arms slid up around his neck as I leaned into his chest.
"I'm not going to miss you at all. You're so annoying." Same said.
"Keep telling yourself that." I said, looking up at him and smiling.
"That's what I'm doing to try and convince myself that it's true." He said.
The smile slid off my face and I sighed, leaning onto him again.
I let go and turned, facing my brother.
The same brother that I hated with a passion and tried to hide from in the airport the day I came, was now the brother that I didn't want to leave. The brother I would give anything for to stay with.
I bit my lip to try and suppress the tears.
He stepped forward, his arms open.
I wrapped my arms around his neck and lifted my feet off the ground, also wrapping my legs around his waist.
He held me tightly around the waist.
I laid my head in the crook office neck, blinking fast.
I wasn't going to cry.
"I don't want to leave." My voice cracked.
"I know, but remember we talked about this. You're going to go finish school and then you are going to move here. Full time. So I can annoy you as much as I want." Kian said.
He was trying to make me laugh, but it didn't work.
I closed my eyes, hoping my eyelids would work as a dam to hold the tears back.
"Jordyn." He said softly, loosening his grip on me.
I clung to him tighter.
"You need to let go and say goodbye to Cameron." Kian whispered in my ear.
I nodded and let go, putting my feet on the ground.
Wiping my face, I turned to Cameron.
He was obviously trying not to cry also.
I leaped forward and clung to him, as I started to cry.
I couldn't do it.
"Shhh." Cameron said, rubbing my back.
He placed his lips on my head as I buried my face into his chest, trying to imprint his smell on my brain.
"You're going to be ok." He said.
"But I'm not." I said, looking up at him with my tear-filled eyes.
My face was most definitely red and puffy and I probably looked super ugly.
Cameron leaned down and kissed my lips.
I leaned into the kiss, my arms automatically going around his neck.
He pulled away and leaned his forehead against mine.
"Everything is going to be fine." He whispered.
This time I nodded, believing him as I looking into his eyes.
"Jordyn." Kian said quietly, obviously not wanting to interrupt. "It's time for you to go if you don't want to miss your plane."
"Ok." I said.
We all had one last group hug, every single one of us, with me in the middle.
I kissed Cameron again.
"I love you." I said.
"I love you too." He said.
I left, going to security, taking one last glance of all of my boys.
Stopping, I pulled out my phone and took a Snapchat of all of them.
'I'm leaving my boys :'(' I captioned it.
As I was sat on the plane, looking out the window, I thought about my summer.
I thought it was going to be the worst summer going into it. I was going to be away from Perrie, I was stuck in a house full of boys, I didn't know anyone other than the people in that house.
But it was the best summer of my life.
Yeah I was away from Perrie, but she got to visit and we still Skyped all the freaking time. Those boys turned out to be the funniest, nicest, and most entertaining people I know. I met a ton of new friends because of them, including Andrea, who it one of my best friends now. And I also met my boyfriend because of them.
Plus I healed my relationship with my brother, which is probably one of the best parts about this whole thing.
I leaned my head back onto the headrest as I listened to music.
This was the summer I went from a little rebel to finding myself.
And I would never forget it.
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Wow, I might or might not have cried writing the end of this chapter because it reminded me of when I went to the airport to drop my brother off.
Ok, I think this is the end. I might do an epilogue or something if you guys want it, but other than that, this is the last chapter.
I have been super busy with school and I got a job and for a really long time I didn't have a laptop charger, which I did finally get a new one.
But I'm just not really into this story anymore.
I felt bad for not finishing it, so I just kept writing, but I had no idea what to write and I didn't really like it that much anyway.
So yeah, I had to write an end though, so here you go for the people who stuck with this story.
Thank you so much of you guys who read it and commented and voted.
I might and might not be uploading other stories.
I have a bunch started, but I don't want to actually upload them until I know I'm going to finish them, so I don't know yet.
I love you guys so much.
Please vote and comment.
Stay cloudy :)

The Exiled Villainess Returns
(Please heed the warnings above before reading) Reborn into the beautiful but deadly world of Ethetia, she comes to a sudden awareness that she is now Livia Katrina Valentine, a character of a game of a reverse harem she once played on Earth called Aster Academy: The Feuding Houses. But this revelation comes a bit too late. You see, Livia wasn't just anyone. She was not given the anonymity of being a background character, or even the blessing of being the heroine. Instead, she has bestowed the role of being the atrocious villainess. And that is exactly what she had been. As a result, Livia triggers her own death flag event at her debutante. Her memories of her past life have the grace to come only minutes before she is accused of poisoning the heroine, Amelia. But all is not helpless. Via last-minute intervention, Livia successfully manages to avoid having her head decapitated. Being exiled was a small price to pay for retaining a pulse. Plus, at least this way, Livia can finally start to live her life, to become more than just a cruel folly. Her exile should have been a new but unusual beginning to her story. But pitiless reality comes knocking. Ethetia had once only been a background setting in a game. A pretty and still picture that mostly went disregarded as the even prettier characters on the screen unloaded their dialogue, but now, it was Livia's world. As real and wonderous as planet Earth once had been, filled with small creatures with their own wills, ambitions, and needs. Such one creature decides that exile was not enough of a penalty. That Livia, the bullish and jealous tormentor of the heroine, deserves a fate more befitting of her past deeds. One worst than death. Livia's fate is ripped out of her hands. She is forced into a collar, sold to an empire rotten with greed, and placed inside a harem where she is expected to wither and die from the inside out. But Livia refuses to be forgotten. Burning with a deep rage against those who only wish to see her fall into her own grave, Livia makes a twisted promise to herself. A promise that pushes her through the darkest moments of her life and brings to light a newfound power rooted deep inside her. So keen to discard her as the villain she has once been, the little creatures in their own ignorance brought forth something they could never dream to fathom. A beacon of darkness.
