Chapter 7
Thanks for all the reviews! And I just realized that throughout all the other chapters – I didn't put a disclaimer! So here it is
I own nothing
Ok read and enjoy! And review!
Paul's POV
I was starting to feel seriously guilty. The plan was all set, but I couldn't get the thought out of my mind that what I was doing was wrong. I mean she loved him, and as much as I hated him, he was good for her. But what about me? I was a good guy, and although I had made some mistakes in the past…. I was smart, funny, nice- sometimes, and I had a rocking body.So why him? But maybe I should just let them be; maybe I should just find another girl.But I loved her, and I was way better then the De Silvia asshole. So I decided to ask grandpa Gork for some advice-Ever since The incident in the hospital me and him have gotten a lot closer, maybe he would know what to do?
"Hey, I was wondering if you could give me some advice." I asked kind of nervously.
"Sure, go ahead." He said with a reproving nod.
So I told him everything, I told him about Jesse and Suze and my plan. I told him how much I loved her and how Jesse used to be a ghost- and I even told him about me and Suze's friendship. After a long silence- he said that I should just let her go, and I thanked him and then ran upstairs.
I thought about what he said half the night- but the more I thought about it, the more I thought he was a senile old fool. What did he know about love?What did he know about the situation? And Jesse didn't deserve her! He didn't! I did! I was the one who really loved her I was the one who would take care of her! Not him!I decided to ignore my grandfathers warning- I would have Suze! And there is nothing he or Jesse could do about it.
The next day – 3:15
I had already confirmed the plan with Debbie, she said she would get out of class early and be ready for my signal. Despite my careful planning, I was nervous. Would it work? Would he pull away? Would Suze blame Debbie and not him? Hopefully it would work- if not I would have to resort to a more devious plan.
The bell rang and I flew out the door, and almost ran outside- I saw Debbie standing next to Jesse talking casually, when Jesse wasn't looking she winked at me. I smiled; all was going according to plan.
Jesse's POV
I was talking to one of Susannah's classmates, her name was Debbie, in my opinion she was a bit of an idiot- but I wanted to be polite, so I kept chatting to her.
All of a sudden she kissed me- and I was so shocked I didn't push her off me. Then she walked away and called "bye sweetie!" after her.I turned around to see a shocked and hurt Susannah standing in front of the school gaping at me.
Oh shit. Istarted to run towards her but she turned and ran away- and out of sight. How was I going to make this right?
Suze's POV
I felt like my world was crashing. I felt a pain thatwas beyond anything I have ever felt before. How could he do this to me? And with Debbie? Of all people? Once I saw him walking towards me I ran- I couldn't face him so I went down to the beach to feel some closure. After a couple minutes I started to cry big baby sobs, and for once in my life I didn't try to stem the flow of constant tears.After a while Paul came and he just sat down next to me and put his arm around me while I cried- he must have seen him kiss her. I cried harder. After an hour I called my mom and told her that I was with Paul and that I wouldn't be home for dinner. She sensed something was wrong so she let me miss Andy's dinners.I am so glad I have a friend like Paul.
Paul's POV
After telling Jesse about the plan- and punching him I felt great.I had finally completed stage one of the plan. Now All I had to do was be the "supportive friend" to Suze- and then after a couple days we would get together. So for the past hour I have been holding her while she cried. Despite the fact that she is miserable, I am actually very happy- it has been a long time since I have been this close to Suze.And my plan was working, I had to contain myself from smiling- because if I did she would deem me unsupportive. After another hour I dropped Suze at home- and even though she was still crying, she was gorgeous- I was meeting her tomorrow.
Jesse's POV
This can not be happening. Paul set up the whole thing! I want to tare him limb from limb but first I need to talk to Susannah, hopefully she will believe me- but I highly doubt it. If she thinks I cheated on her she will be mad; really mad. But I have to make her believe me before it is too late. I will go to the mission during lunch to talk to her. Hopefully she will listen- it is my last hope.
Longer next time!
