Angela and Stephen were sitting on the lawn outside of the Governors mansion. Stephen had shown up with a picnic basket, again and Angela had decided to take a break.
"Thank you. I really needed this. But why are you so kind to me?"
"I thought you'd figured that out by now." Stephen blushed.
"Look, Stephen…" Angela didn't know what to say. This boy had obvious feelings for her; sure, she liked him to. But not the way he wanted her to, or, she didn't think so. Angela shook her head the warm sun had given her a headache. She had been in the stable when Stephen had shown up earlier, so she was very tired.
"I'm…I'm sorry miss." Angela looked at him, he was such a sweet lad. And he really cared for her.
"I know I'm too forward but it's just that…" Angela didn't know why she did what she did. Maybe it was to shut him up, maybe she wanted it or maybe was it exactly what she needed right then. She leaned forward and kissed him.
Stephen froze for a few seconds, but then answered the kiss. He placed his hand on her waist and pulled her closer. It was nothing like kissing Jack Angela thought. Jacks kisses were always passionate, strong, he knew what he was doing and what he wanted. Stephen was insecure, stiff and seemed almost a bit afraid. Angela pulled away, blushing. Stephen blushed as well, but then he smiled, leaned forward and kissed Angela again, Angela answered the kiss and for the first time in what seemed forever she felt completely relaxed.
He had been watching them through the window for a while. They had been sitting on the grass, talking, laughing, eating and drinking. Then suddenly had she kissed him. When she did it felt like he couldn't breathe, but he couldn't stop watching them.
Now the lad kissed her, and she let him.
He jammed his fist into the wall. A door was opened behind him, but he couldn't care less. He just watched the two, sitting in the grass, kissing. A fury, a burning rage started growing inside him. Jealousy…he had never felt like this before. A single tear ran down his cheek.
"Jack? What are you doing?" Will looked at his friend. He was standing by the window, looking at something. He had his hand pressed against the wall and he was shaking.
"Jack." He walked over to him and placed his hand on his shoulder. The pirate looked down at the floor, still shaking. Will wondered of he was sick again, but then he saw what Jack had been watching. Angela was sitting on the grass beneath them, and just as Will watched she pulled away from Stephens arms. She was smiling and looked very happy. Stephen leaned forward and took her right hand. With her left Angela caressed Stephens's cheek.
"Oh…" Will looked at Jack again, he was still looking down at the floor, but Will now knew why hi was shaking. He wasn't sick. He was angry, sad…
"You love her don't you?" Jack didn't answer he just turned around and embraced Will. Will was shocked at first but then he hugged his friend back and the two men stood so for a while. Will looked down at Angela who said goodbye to Stephen, unaware of the fact that she just had broken Jacks heart…
Ok, a very short chapter, but I kinda like it.
