Geoff POV (12/28/2015)
"No, I'm not backing down anymore. I'm in love with her."
"Man, I know this but we gotta go," Duncan says as he tries to plead with me. He keeps trying to hold me back but I give him a shove and go towards Bridgette's door. Finally he just yanks me back. I can tell by the look on his face that he's serious so I retreat to the door as he follows.
Courtney POV
I walk over to see Bridgette crying in the corner of her room. Seeing her like this broke me. She was my best friend but also one of the most positive people I know, not many things or people could get her to this point but Geoff was always a sore spot.
"Oh Bridgette," I say as I got sit next to her and wrap my arms around her. "I'm so sorry babe. You know that I'm here for you, no matter what. I always got your back." We sit there for awhile with me just holding her and eventually the crying stops.
"I told I was pathetic. I'm still crying over his ass."
"Do you want to talk about it?"
"No but I know I have to or I'll just add it to the list of things I bottle up."
"Okay then." She turns to face the wall before she starts speaking.
"We had sex earlier today before you came to talk to me." My mouth immediately dropped. She paused for a second before she continued. "Actually we've been having sex a lot for the past couple of weeks." Sex? What the hell was she thinking? Is she crazy? That's not how you end things. "Go ahead and make all the faces you want before I turn around because they'll probably just make me feel worst."
"Okay my face is completely straight so look at me Bridge." She turned back to face me and her face was already red as a tomato.
"I didn't plan on doing it. The first night, I really was going to stay at a friend's place if it got out of control or I got too emotional. But you know Geoff. I tried to leave, he was like 'don't' like those cliche movies when they kiss you and try to bring you back in. It was great though and I mean really great-"
"Okay Bridgette."
"Sorry but yeah, it was great and I would love for us to forget our past but I couldn't bare to let myself stay there that morning. He would of woke up, put his arms around me, say sweet things to me then try to talk through what happened. But I don't want to talk about what happened. I just want us to stay there in that little bubble and that be the last thing I remember about him but he ruined it by constantly trying to talk about it."
"He's confused Bridgette. You've ignored him for basically three years and now you show up at his door saying you want to talk then it ends with you having sex. And you continued to have sex with him. I mean, what did you expect?"
"For him to get the message when I left every morning. Or when I never contacted him unless it was for sex. When people leave the morning after, they don't want to be contacted."
"If I was him, I would feel the same way. If Duncan did that to me, I would bother him trying to figure out what happened."
"We're not the same Courtney. You and Duncan always make up, every single time. No matter what happens, I can't even have a conversation with Geoff without wanting to strangle him but fuck him at the same time."
"So what do you wanna do? We can go over there or I can call Duncan to bring Geoff back."
"No, don't do that. Umm.. I think it's best if I go over there. Geoff isn't good at estimating when I have cooled off."
"Alright, you gonna be okay?"
"Yeah, I am. Can you come with me though?"
"Of course but you might wanna dry your face a little before you go." Bridgette goes into her bathroom to wash off her face while I go to throw on a pair of slides and my keys. She meets me at the door so we can head to the car.
Bridgette POV
I always kind of hated how close their apartment was to ours. It never gave me enough time to think things through. Courtney sensed I wasn't moving so she sat in the car until I managed to finally get my seatbelt off. We walk out the car and into the building. We get to the elevator but as soon as the doors opened, I froze. What was I thinking? Coming to Geoff's to talk?
"Everything okay?" Courtney asks to snap me out of my thinking.
"What am I doing? Like really what am I doing here? I don't know what to say or what to do. I don't even know the reason I'm here or what I'm trying to accomplish. This could really just push me over the edge and send me back into a downward spiral. Granted the last one led with me getting my own clothing line and that's alwa-"
"Bridgette!" Courtney exclaims. I stop my ranting to see that she has her annoyed face as she's holding the elevator. "Get on the elevator Bridgette."
I oblige and stand there, playing with my fingers and continue doing so as we reach the door. Courtney looks at me with reassuring face before I nod to her. She already has a key so the knock isn't needed. We walk in to see Evan on the couch and Duncan at the stool but no Geoff in site.
"He's in his room," Duncan says before I can even ask. I walk back to Geoff's door and stand there for a few moments. I look back at Courtney and gives me that reassuring smile that lets me know I can do this. I knock the door and know that everything is about to be amazing or go up in flames.
A/N: So I decided to do this chapter over, sorry :)
