Next chapter is up! What I tell ya. Please R&R
Trish woke up to find Jeff
wasn't there she walked out of her bedroom and into the hallway
which was spotless. She made her way down the stairs and couldn't
believe that Jeff had cleaned up around here.
Walking into the
living room where she found him asleep on her couch. Trish moved the
blanket from the top of the couch onto him. "Thank you Jeff," she
whispered as she stroked his head.
Jeff woke up to the smell
of food. He made his way to the kitchen to find Trish slaving away at
the stove. "I'm starved" Trish jumped turning to see Jeff
"How'd you sleep" Trish asked.
"Brilliant thanks" she
smiled and took the two plates into the dinning room where her open
fire was lit. They sat down at the table in front of it.
"Thanks"
There was silence for a while.
"So why did you really come to
my house?" Trish asked curiously.
"I didn't plan it I
swear, I didn't even plan on coming to Canada. It's just after I
heard what had happened…" Trish cut him off.
"You felt
sorry felt sorry for me..?" Trish dropped her cutlery onto her
plate.
"No! I wanted to make sure you were ok, if you needed a
friend" Trish walked over to her couch and switched the TV on, he
sat next to her. Trish laid her head on his lap as Jeff stroked her
hair.
"What would I have done without you?"
"Shhh. It's
ok"
"He makes me feel like I'm nothing…I'm nothing to
nobody" Trish felt a little teary.
Jeff sat her up "Your
something to me Trish" Your everything to me he thought looking
away.
"No. I wasn't good enough for him so he had to go for
my best friend"
Jeff pulled her closer to him wrapping his arms
around her.
"Trish he wasn't good enough for you. Your
beautiful, funny, smart, athletic you're everything a guy would
want"
"Then why didn't he want me?" she let her tears
roll.
"Because you're not easy you have class and Chris
doesn't" Jeff said whipping away her tears. Jeff caught her eyes,
rubbing her cheek. He leaned in and his soft lips touched hers for a
split second before Trish pulled back.
"What are you doing!?"
Trish asked furiously.
"I'm not ready to move on…and you
knew that…that's why you're here" Trish stood up backing away
slowly, she was lost in confusion.
"I…" Jeff got cut off.
He didn't think she'd act this way.
"Get out!" Jeff's
eyes widened he had never seen her act this way before. He slowly
made his way to the door. As he was about to leave, she called for
him.
"Jeff…if that's all you see me as…don't bother
coming back"
Jeff knew that's not all he saw in her but what
could he say to make her see different.
He got in his car and
made his way back to his hotel. Mean while Trish sat in tears knowing
she made a mistake by letting Jeff go.
