Chapter 10;

I wasn't sure why last night meant so much to me; maybe I loved Finn, maybe it brought up old memories I had long since forgotten. Whatever the reason, I was hurt and I was hurt bad. I sighed and dug deeper into the bed. Jack's arms still around me, he pulled me closer and kissed my cheek. "Good morning beautiful. How'd you sleep?" He kissed my cheek again. I let out a long sorrow some sigh,

"Your brother is just gah, you know? Hahaha, I just, I wish it wasn't like this. I mean who the hell is Amanda anyway? You never told me about her? Why didn't you tell me about her? You told me Finn thought he loved me, you could have told me about Amanda. Why didn't you tell me Jack?"

"I'm sorry, Brie." I turned to face Jack, he looked upset. "I didn't know what to say, it's a long story."

"Long story or not Jack, you could have told me or got Finn to tell me."

"Why is it such a big deal?"

"Because Jack." I sat up and put my head in my hands, "It just is. I don't know maybe I feel how Finn does. Maybe I, I think I love him too." I dropped my hands down smashing into the bed and looked at Jack, tears in my eyes. "He means a lot to me. Yes, I just met him. Yes, it turns out I know nothing about him. But he lied to me, Jack I," I was cut off. Jack kissed me. I quickly pulled back and slapped him. The sound my hand made when in contact with his face shattered through the room. "What the hell!" I was shocked, "You... You just... After I just... What the hell!" He looked up at me, hand on the cheek I slapped rubbing it.

"After last night I guess I deserved that." He let out a little chuckle and looked me in the eye.

"Finn?"

"You know, that's three times Brie. Haha," He kept rubbing his face, "Remind me never to piss you off. Ouch," I moved over next to Finn and held his face looking at the bright red hand mark I had left.

"Oh I am so sorry Finn," I hit his arm playfully, "You should have told me you weren't Jack. Your gonna need ice for that now." As I went to leave I was pulled back into a kiss, I pulled back again.

"No. You don't get to kiss me Finn. No." I slapped him again. "Don't you for one second think that you can kiss me. You lied to me, to that, that thing! No!" I started to cry. Why was this happening? Why did it hurt so much.

"You said that you think you love me and I guess Jack told you that I feel the same way,"

"No! Leave me alone Finn." I got up quickly and walked into the kitchen.

"Brie, are you ok?" Jack walked over from the breakfast bar and hugged me. "I'm sorry I didn't wake you. What happened?" He looked at me, "Finn was there wasn't he?" I hung my head and let out tears.

"Brie please... Jack, I..." Finn walked in and came over to Jack and I.

"No Finn. Don't. You hurt her. You don't deriver her. You always do this!" Jack hugged me tighter. "You told everyone you were over. How could you?"

"We are over. We have been for a while. You know Amanda Jack, if she doesn't agree, she will act like it never happened. Jack, Brie, please. I'm not, I wasn't dating her when I met you." I dug my head into Jack's chest. I felt Jack's arms tighten around me.

"She has never done this before Finn. What is going on? And the truth!" Jack sounded hurt.

"Jack please, this is between me and Brie. Please, let me talk to Brie,"

Jack looked down at me and mouthed "Is it ok?"

I nodded and mouthed back "I'm a big girl,"

He hugged me and walked out, eyeing Finn off as he went. Finn went to hug me,

"No Finn, if you want to talk you are going to do what I say. Other side of the kitchen. Don't even think about touching me." I jumped up onto the counter. I sat there watching as Finn contemplated things in his head and slowly and regretting walked to the other side of the kitchen. "Now, Stay there are talk."

"What?"

"You wanted to talk, talk. I have nothing to say Finn. You lied to me."

"No I didn't. You never asked if I had a girlfriend, which I didn't. I wasn't dating her. I'm not dating her. Brie, please. Believe me."Finn pleaded with me for about an hour. Repeatedly attempting to walk over to me causing me to walk away. By the time we had finished talking we had moved around the entire house, till Finn cornered me. "Brie..." He put his hand on my face and stroked my cheek with his thumb, "Please look at me," I shook my head.

"No, Finn." Finn dropped his hand, sounding angry in his reply,

"Over an hour of my pleading and begging and the first and only thing you say is 'No, Finn' You know Brie, anyone else I would have given up on," He signed, "If you don't want to listen to me, then why are you still here?"

"I don't know Finn, I just," And with that, I kissed Finn with everything feeling I could gather. I was in love with Finn, no matter what.
