Chapter 26:
"This was nice though, just hanging out and catching up." I smiled nonchalantly. "Yeah, me too." He smiled back. We both started walking back to our houses and just chatting in general.
"I really miss you, Beth." Nick confessed as we approached our houses. "I missed you too, Nick." I replied with a smile playing on my lips. "Are you free tomorrow? I was thinking you could come round mine and we have a movie day or something?" Nick asked.
"That'd be great." I answered accepting. "Awesome, come around about 12?", "See you then." I answered. He engulfed me into a hug, smiled and then walked across the road to his house. A huge smile was on my lips as i walked up the drive to my house. As i walked in the front door the smile dropped off my face.
"J-joe?" I stuttered out, surprised to see him sitting in my living room. "Hey .. Beth." He stood up and walked over to me in the hall way. "What are you doing here?" I asked. "I wanted to come and apologise for the other night. It was wrong of me to ask you them questions and i was a jerk-" "No, you wasn't a jerk. Don't say that." I interupted him.
He threw me a soft smile and continued. "Anyway, i just wanted to tell you that i'm sorry and that i should accept your wish that you don't want to be with me." I could feel my eyes begin to sting from the tears that were forming. I held them back. "Joe." I whispered. "It's ok .. anyway .. I'll be on my way." He smiled weakly. He wrapped his arms around me. I put my head in the crook of his neck and let a tear slip. When we parted i wiped the tear quickly so he wouldn't notice.
"I'll see you around, Beth." And with that he walked out the front door leaving me there. I slowly walked up the stairs, into my bedroom and took out my song book and pen. The tears started flowing along with the lyrics. I didn't know why i reacting this way .. i guess this was closure between me and Joe. Like .. another chapter over in my life and another one beginning. I wrote the song in 20 minutes and got my guitar and started putting a strumming pattern with it while singing along. The song was fully finished in an hour and i was happy how it turned out.
I put my guitar down and layed on my bed staring out my window at the stars. Thinking. Thinking about Nick. Thinking about what things would be like if i was his girlfriend instead of Adrianna. What does she have that i don't? That seemed like a frequent question i had been asking myself alot lately. I slowly drifted off to sleep thinking about life.
I woke up the next morning to someone knocking on my bedroom door. I dragged myself out of bed and walked over to my door. I opened the door rubbing my eyes and looking up to see who it was .. just to find Nick himself standing there.
I'm uploading Chapter 27 tonight also. :)
Hope you enjoyed!
Awe, poor Joe!
Hopefully he will find someone to be with soon enough! :)
