Chapter 18

"Jeff, what do you want?" Shaina asked nervously, as he started walking toward her. "I know it was a month ago, but I really think I need to explain about what happened between me and Stacy," he answered, as a tear came down his cheek. He never realized how much he had missed her. "I don't care about what happened. We just aren't meant to be together," she said, as he shook his head furiously. "No, you're wrong. We are each other's soul mates and I know that you know it. Why can't you understand that we love each other and we are meant to be," he replied, as she crossed her arms. "If you really did love me, why were you kissing Stacy?" she asked, as he smirked. "I thought you said you didn't care what happened, but either way, I didn't kiss her. Why would I want to? You are everything to me and I would never, ever want to hurt you. I loved you then and I love you now," he answered truthfully, as he took her hands in his. "I'm sorry Jeff. As much as I'd like to get back with you, I can't. We fought so much over the most stupid things and I don't want to go through that again," she said, as he let go of her hands. "Don't do this to me Shaina. Please don't do this to me. I love you with all my heart and I need you with me. I'm no one without you," he replied, as she blew out a breath. "Go get Stacy to help you," she shot back, as he rolled his eyes. "I told you, I do not love her and I didn't kiss her. Why would I be here right now if I had really kissed her?" he asked, as she swallowed hard. "I don't know," she answered truthfully, looking down. "Exactly. I can't promise you that we wont fight, but all couples do. And now that you're sober, it will be much easier," he said, trying to convince her. "Now that I'm sober? If you scared so much, you would have been there to visit me. End of story," she replied, walking past him. "Wait, please," he said, as he started to follow her. "Leave me alone Jeff! Just leave me alone. I can't take this. I can't take seeing you again and I can't take you telling me that you love me," she replied, as he grabbed her arm and turned her to him. "Why can't you take it?" he asked, as she started to sob. "Because I love you too," she answered, burying her face into her hands. He sighed and hugged her. "Thank you for telling me that," he said, as she smiled. "I guess I'm not as emotionally strong as I thought I would be," she replied, as he removed a strand of hair from his face. "It doesn't matter. All I care about is that I love you and you love me," he said, as he leaned in and kissed her. When they broke off, she was smiling. "Thank God we're back together again," she said, as he wrapped an arm around her. "Yeah me too. Now let's go back to the hotel room so we can do what we do best," he replied, kissing her ear. "You are already frisky," she said, laughing. He smiled and kissed her again. This was how it was supposed to be. They were happy.

Meanwhile, Stacy hissed as she watched them leave. She had heard everything. "They can't get back together, they just can't," she said, as she slapped her hand against the wall. They loved each other and they were together again. "I just can't let their happiness continue for too long," she said evilly, as she started to think of a plan.

When Shaina and Jeff walked in together, Vince smiled. "I knew you two would come to your senses," he said, as he hugged Shaina. "Yeah, I guess you were right. We need to be together," she replied, as she kissed Jeff. Vince smiled wider and then looked at his watch. "Sorry, I have to get going. See you two later," he said, as he waved goodbye. "Bye," they replied in unison, as he walked away. "I'm glad he is happy," Jeff said, as Shaina kissed him. "Who wouldn't be? We deserve each other," she replied truthfully, as he looked deep into her hazel eyes. "I don't know what I did to deserve such a wonderful person like you, but I love you and I always will," he said, as they kissed again.

"I love you and I always will," Stacy mimicked, from around the corner. "You two wont be so happy for long," she said, as she started to laugh evilly.
