SOME CURSES IN THIS POST. WATCH IT! THANKS JOMMY LOVE19
As Elena walked into the small café around the corner from G-Major, she noticed Scott sitting in the far corner. She walked over to the counter and got a coffee before walking over to the table and sitting in front of Scott. He looked up and smiled and her.
"Hey." He said softly. Elena leaned over the table and kissed him softly on the lips. She pulled away and sat back in her seat.
"Hey, I missed you." She whispered. Scott nodded in agreement. He reached over and grabbed her hand in his. He cleared his throat nervously before speaking.
"Babe, I need to tell you something." He started. Elena took a sip of her coffee and nodded for him to continue. She set her cup down on the table and listened.
"I told Jude." Was all he said. Elena's eyes widened and her jaw dropped. She quickly gained composure and started talking.
"What happened? What did she say? Does she know we're dating? She was acting fine bef-"
Scott ran a hand across his face and spoke, cutting her off.
"I told her through a text. She said she had to go after finding out and shut her phone off. She knows I have a girlfriend back in Rome, but she doesn't know it's you."
"She was acting fine before when I stopped by the studio." Scott shook his head and sighed.
"You know how she is, especially with people she's really close to. She hates lies. She holds grudges and can be a real bitch when she wants to. She's gonna snap soon and we gotta watch out. I haven't seen her since I told her this morning. She's probably acting fine because she doesn't want anyone to know she's hurt." He said softly. Elena felt tears build up in her eyes and shook her head.
"Scott, we have to tell her together. She's my best friend..."
"She's mine, too!" Scott whispered harshly, cutting her off.
"We all grew up together; you, me, Shay, T-Bone, hell, even Jamie and SME. When they find out what we've done, they're all gonna hate us." Elena said looking down, trying to hold back her tears.
"Lena, we have to tell her before her birthday." Scott said, almost pleading with her. Elena nodded and looked up at him.
"I tell her later."
As Jude, Kwest, Portia, Tommy, Sadie, SME, and Darius sat in the conference room discussing Jude's party and the paint ball party, Tommy and Jude kept passing notes to each other. Since Kwest was in the middle of the two of them, he would have to pass it over. Kwest took the note from Tommy and looked at Darius, making sure he was preoccupied, before handing it to Jude. Jude held it under the table and unfolded it as quietly as she could.
IIf your dad fines out, he's gonna kill Scott, then you're gonna be sad, meaning I get to 'comfort' you. You see? It all works out.
Jude laughed quietly to herself and looked over at Tommy. He smiled and winked at her before turning back to pretending to pay attention to Darius. Jude took her mini pink gel pen and began to write.
Yeah and if he finds out you're 'comforting' me, he'll kill you. Then who will comfort me?
She tapped Kwest causing him to look at her. He rolled his eyes and took the note, quickly passing it to Tommy. He quietly unfolded the piece of paper and smiled. He looked up at Jude and shrugged. As he began writing, Darius stopped talking. Jude and Tommy turned their attention to him.
"I'll be right back." He said before walking out. Jude raised a brow at Portia.
"His pager went off." She answered. Jude nodded and took the note from Kwest. Portia walked out of the office after telling Sadie she had to got get the book of cake designs from her office. SME started joking around and Sadie began texting one of her friends. Jude opened the note.
I guess you're just gonna have to 'comfort' yourself.
Jude laughed and was about to write when the door opened. Jude rolled her eyes when she saw Elena standing at the door. She went back to writing, completely ignoring Elena. She stopped writing when Elena walked over and sat in the seat next to her. SME looked over at her and smiled.
"Hi Elena." The three said in unison. She smiled and waved at them before turning back to Jude.
"Scott told me he told you." She whispered so Jude could only hear. Jude ignored her and handed Kwest the note.
"Give that to him." She told him. Elena sighed and looked up, making sure no one was watching them. SME went back to joking around, Sadie was busy texting, and Kwest was busy playing messenger for Jude and Tommy. She looked back to Jude and saw that she had gotten the note back. She was busy writing and Elena took that as her chance.
"He also told me that you never answered him back after he told you." She whispered. Jude rolled her eyes and passed the note back to Kwest. She then turned to Elena and smiled.
"I don't know what you're talking about, Elena Balena." She answered slightly annoyed, but trying to stay calm. Elena sighed.
"I know you know Jay Jay. Can we just move past this? There's something important I need to tell you?" Elena asked desperately. Jude let out a bitter laugh and crumpled up the note Kwest hand her, throwing it on the table. Jude stands up so fast that the chair tipped back. Kwest grabbed it before it fell and fixed it. Now all eyes were on them. Portia walked in and stopped just as she started talking when she saw Jude and Elena. Elena stood up and looked around them embarrassed. She looked at Jude and laughed nervously.
"Can we talk in private, please?" She pleaded. Jude ignored her and looked at her in disgust.
"How does it feel Elena? 13 years of friendship down the drain, for what? A meaningless screw?" Everyone, but Tommy looked on shocked yet still confused. Elena looked at with tears building up in her eyes.
"At the time that's all it was but now..."
"But now what? He give you a ring, tell you how he wanted to marry you one day? How he wanted to grow old with you? If he did, it's all bullshit because he said the same exact thing to me when I was 16!" Jude shouted. By then everyone knew who she was talking about and gasp.
"But now we're dating." Elena finished. Jude looked at her and shook her head. She felt angry tears fall down her cheeks.
"You know, when we were growing up, you two were always close. I had no problem with it, but when I got back from that retreat, I had my suspicions. You knew what he meant to me." Elena could feel the anger rising in her and it all came out.
"You knew that when you two started dating that I liked him, hell, possibly loved him, yet you two starting dating." SME were practically taking bets on who would smack who first, Sadie had shut her phone off, Portia had her arms crossed, and Kwest and Tommy were watching closely.
"No, I never knew you liked him because you never told me."
"That doesn't matter, I showed all the signs for you to know I liked him."
"AOL Keyword:Liked. Now Google this: Whatever friendship we had, is over." By now, Elena was in tears, but not because she was sad, yeah she was sad, but she was also mad, frustrated, and disappointed in herself.
"Jude don't do this." Jude looked at her and pointed a finger at her.
"AND the only reason why you're still invited to both parties is because I know Scott, SME, Shay, and T-Bone would want you there. Other than that, stay the hell out of my face." Elena couldn't take it anymore and got in Jude's face. She began to speak in a loud whisper.
"You want to know what I'd like to know? If you were so suspicious, why did you continue to date Scott? I think you knew what happened. I might come off as a slut, but at least I don't scrounge for sloppy seconds." As soon as she finished, the back of Jude's hand connected with Elena's right cheek. Gasps rang throughout the room as everyone watched Elena's head be whipped to the side. Kwest reached forward and pulled Jude back. Elena turned her head to look at Jude. Her cheek was already started to change color. Her hands dropped to her sides and when you looked into her eyes, if you really knew her, you would understand the emotions you saw in them. There was a mixture of hurt, disappointment, and sadness.
"So this is it? 13 years of friendship down the drain because you got your panties in knot." Elena asked. Jude, who was being held back by Tommy, spoke.
" No, 13 years of friendship down the drain because you decided to screw around with Scott behind my back."
