I've never been one for drama.
But that's all my life has been about lately.
Jessica, Jade, Jade, Jessica, neither, both, neither...
It's time for me to make a choice.
Unfortunately, when I do, the REAL drama is going to start.

Restless, Jessica got up and walked back inside, standing right next to the patio door. Who would she want to talk to if her only family member were in the hospital?
She pressed her head against the window, the glass feeling cold and sticky against her forehead.
It was an easy answer. But could she really do that? Could she push the person who mattered most to her toward Jade again, even after the way Jade had treated her today?
Get over yourself. This was serious. The girl's mother was in the hospital. And he - for whatever reason - really cared about Jade. He'd want to know if she was in trouble.
Before she could change her mind, she went into the kitchen and picked up the phone, then dialed Jeremy's number.
