Chapter 2
"Jazz?" the sweet sounding voice called through to me and a grin immediately appeared on my face.
"In here Bella." I replied. She had called earlier to say that she would be coming around in a few hours and I pathetically sat around waiting for her to walk through my door. When she walked around the corner she took my breath away, her tight fitting jeans and green shirt accentuated her curves and she looked stunning. She grinned at me as she met my gaze and ran to throw her arms around my waist, I was overcome by the sweet strawberry sent of her hair.
"I brought some movies over for us to watch, I thought we could do a movie night like we used to." I grinned and nodded in return. "Ok then you go get the snacks I will set the movie up." She said cheerfully.
Bella's and my mother were best friends while they were pregnant so naturally when they had us we were thrust together at every chance they got. Some of my best memories as a child were of us rolling around in the mud of Forks or playing dress up. As we grew so did our friendship and when I was about ten years old I realised that I liked Bella more than a sister or best friend and then by thirteen I was unconditionally and deeply in love with her. We used to hang our every night we could but one a week we would have a movie night, of course it was best idea that we ever had as I quickly learnt that horror movies scared her and for those brief few hours she would curl up in my lap until she fell to sleep. Naturally we watched a lot of horror movies when I got to choose.
"You right in there Jazz?" she called out.
"Yeah darlin'." I said flopping down on to the chair beside her to watch the movie. Well to tell the truth I couldn't even tell you one thing about the movie as I watched Bella through the whole thing. She was fidgeting and I knew that something was bothering her.
"Bella what's wrong?" I asked softly.
"Umm… well, I am just stressing over nothing I'm sure." She replied, biting down on to her lip. Oh God how I want to kiss those lips, feel them on my skin.
"Ok so tell me what it is then." I smiled at her.
"It's James." She sighed. "He's been acting weird for a little while now and I don't know what to expect. I mean he said he has something important to tell me tomorrow and I think he's going to break up with me." The pain on her face was heartbreaking. "I mean it's not like I couldn't live without him, but I do love him and it would be so different not having him with me all the time. Has he said anything to you?"
Ok so I knew this is the time I should say something about my obsessive love for her but what if she laughed at me or rejected me or worse was disgusted by the thought of someone she thought of as a brother falling in love with her. I just couldn't lose her and would rather watch from the side lines while she lives her life than never see her again. So being typical me I took the cowards way out.
"I was talking to him the other day, he seemed excited to go out with you. I am sure that it is nothing to worry about darlin'."
"Yeah I am sure you are right." She hesitantly said back, I could tell she didn't believe me.
Why can't I just tell her?
AN: Please review and tell me what you think.
