I DO NOT OWN THE SONG!
~Nick's P.O.V.~
The anxiety was plain on my face, I knew it. I also knew that we weren't needed in the office. I was mostly anxious because I really didn't understand why Zac wanted to talk to the both of us. JOE cheated. JOE's the bad guy. JOE'S the problem here. JOE'S . . . MINE ZAC GO AWAY! I screamed at him in my head. I was immediatley apalled at myself. What was with me and thinking such rude thoughts about a guy I didn't even know? What was with me not caried that I was technically the other "Women" well man but you know what I mean. I had never felt so much hosility towards someone for no reason before. He did nothing wrong, yet I wanted to rip his head off. I couldn't be thinking this. He's Joe's best friend. I have to like him too.
"Nick, Me and Joe are going to talk alone." He said it as a statement, not asking me if it was ok. Well it wasn't ok.
"No." I said simply.
"No?" Zac questioned.
"No." I assured him. I saw the frustration in his eyes, jaw, and fist as they winced, clinched, and balled-up. I shouldn't have been as amused by it as I was.
"Yes." It came from the wrong persons mouth . . . Joe's. I looked over to him. "Leave us alone for a minute please."
I suddenly felt unbelievably insecure but then better when he kissed me quickly on the lips. Everything would be ok. I thought for the quick second his hands were gripping at my waist. He pulled away to soon. I looked over at Zac. His eyes were Misty. Anger was replaced with pity and I felt bad for him. If he felt for Joe half of what I felt for him I don't know how he got out of bed. Call me stupid or whatever you want but this is definatley love at first sight. That being said I trust him. I nodded and smiled slightly at Zac then turned the corner into the main hallway.
I walked down the hallway looking aimlessly at the puke-white tile floors. No windows. I had never noticed but this school was depressing. Guess Joe kept me out of this sad mushroom cloud. I ran my fingers along the tile walls as I walked down the hallway. I should have been watching where I was going. Then I would have noticed someone walking my direction. Well maybe if she hadn't been looking at her schedule and watching where she was going then we wouldn't have collided but it was already to later. We hit and fell straight to the floor, our legs tangling.
"Jeez!" I yelped, rubbing my head.
"I'm so sorry!" She said. "Great way to start off at a new school, Selena."
That's when I recognized the voice and the name. I looked at her my eyes wide. I knew that face. "SELENA!" I screamed, pinning her to the ground with a bear hug.
~With Joe and Zac~
~Joe's P.O.V.~
I didn't know how long he was planning on just standing there, staring at his hands. But, at this point he should have just been carved out of stone. It didn't even look like he was breathing.
"Ok," He breathed. I sighed of relief. "I have a few questions."
"Ask away." I said ansy.
He looked up at me then. With those puppy dog eyes and cringed. I could see the pain in his eyes . . . caused by me.
" . . . Why?"
My throat started clogging up. I had never had to deal with a break-up or an ex or hurting someone this badly. Why did all of these things have to be with my best friend in the whole world. "I'm sorry."
"I know! I asked why."
"I don't know!"
"I thought we were going to be together forever. I mean, we're in love!" His eyes fell to the floor. "Were . . . in love."
I sighed then breathed in deep.This was it. No more holding back. I started my breathless rant. "No we weren't! you were! I wasn't! Think about it, I never ever, NOT ONCE said I was in love with you to! I love you I do! but like a brother or a best friend! Not like a boyfriend! I never lead you on. Even Demi agrees with me on the subject that you knew this was just a physical relationship." I took his hands. He was crying now. "I don't want to lose you. I really don't. But I can't be with you the way you want me to. I need you to change the way you think of me. Because I'm Nick's and he's mine. He's the one I see myself being in love with one day. Not you. This hurts I know and I'm sorry. But it's how it is. You have to accept. You have to! We have to stay friends. You can't live without me, I can't live without you. We're best friends. For life."
He hugged me then. crying into my shoulder.
We stood there hugging for a while until he pulled away sniffling. "Best friends for life, I promise." It felt so good to hear those words come out of his mouth. I wiped the tears from his cheek and kissed his forehead. When I pulled away his eyes were dry but still a little puffy. He smiled at me. Thank god.
Nick came running around the corner then with a girl I'd never seen before on his back. Who was the hoe and why was she on my man?
