Thanks so much for the reviews, they really mean a lot. Oh and I posted a new story called Alone, check it out if you haven't already, I'm gonna try to write the second part to it. Enjoy(:
Selena's Pov
"Care to explain why you missed your flight?" I made sure to put air quotes around missed.
She had just stuffed her mouth with pancakes, most likely to avoid my question.
We didn't stay up too late last night, we ended up eating more cookies and we watched tv. She had fallen asleep on the couch, and I just couldn't wake her, I could tell she was exhausted. Even though she ended up telling me everything, I could still see the sadness in her eyes. She's looking better now, but we've only been talking for a couple of minutes.
We were both eating breakfast, but I was texting Demi as well. She told me that someone opened the door to her house last night and that she was worried. I just went along with it and asked if she was okay.
"W-what? I don't know what you're talking about."
"Ha, you know exactly what I'm talking about." I unlocked my phone and opened up the conversation I was having with Demi.
Demi: I know we couldn't go out last night 'cause you had to do something, but since Jennel missed her flight, why don't we go out for lunch?
Selena: What do you mean she missed her flight?
Demi: Yeah, she texted me saying her flight was actually last night, but she had been at the studio all day. I was really looking forward to seeing her :/
"I don't wanna face her. I don't know what I'm gonna say, I don't even know what I wanna say." She slid my phone back to me, I could see she was starting to worry again.
"It's better to face things now than later. I could ask her to come over, she wants to talk to me about something, you could talk to her afterwards?"
"Won't she flip that I lied to her?" Even though she was completely heartbroken yesterday, I find it sweet that she's worrying about Demi being mad at her.
"She misses you Jennel, she just wants to see you."
"Right, um so should I like leave while you guys talk?"
"Let me text her and see if she wants to come over."
Selena: How bout we have lunch at my place today?
Demi: Sure, I'll be there at like 1?
Selena: Yeah that's fine.
"She says she'll be here at like one."
"I don't wanna do this anymore."
"Jennel, calm down you'll be fine." She was sitting across from me, her leg was rapidly bouncing up and down.
"Can I just leave? I need time to clear my head and calm down."
"Yeah, just take my car." I was nervous about this too, but I didn't wanna show it.
I still don't know what it is that Demi has to tell me, I haven't seen her in person since the day she came over to talk about what had happened on New Year's, and her and Jennel could break up. I hope they don't, because they're happy together, but who would I comfort? I wouldn't want Demi mad at me cause I'm with Jennel, or the other way around.
"I don't have my license."
"What? But don't you work on cars? How do you not have your license?"
"I'm a horrible driver." She started laughing, and I only shook my head.
"Just go. You'll be fine, just don't go too far, I'll text you when you should come back."
"Alright. I'll see you soon."
"Don't do anything illegal!" I yell, since she was already walking out the door.
"I'll try my best not to!"
"You know I saw a car identical to yours when I was headed over here."
"Oh. Wow, what a coincidence huh?" Good thing my windows are tinted, if she would have seen Jennel I don't even know what I would have said.
"Yeah. So what have you been up to? I've missed you." She pulled me into a hug, my entire body began to tingle from her touch.
"N-nothing much. And you?"
"Too much. I just have too much on my mind, it's really frustrating." I pecked her forehead and walked towards the couch, there was no point in us standing there, even though I'd love to be in her arms forever, she wants to talk to me.
"What's on your mind Dems?" She sat on the opposite side of the couch and faced me. I saw her blush when our hands touched as we went to grab the pillow that was between us. That's strange.
"Well first, I wanna apologize for the last time we talked. I've come to the conclusion that I can't force you tell me things just because I wanna hear them. You obviously need more time, and I respect that.
I kinda wanna put that behind us until both of us are completely sure that were ready to talk about the past and open up about it. I'm gonna be performing soon, so I think it'd be a good time for us to be apart and properly think things through."
She's leaving? She wants time apart? That's not fair, I need her.
"Hey now, don't make that face. Be happy, please?" She grabbed my chin and slightly tilted it so I could look at her.
"Sorry. I'm happy for you Demi, I really am. I'm just gonna miss you is all." I smile at her, trying to convince her. There's really no use, she still knows me, I haven't completely changed.
"That smile isn't very convincing."
"Um what else did you need to talk to me about?" I didn't wanna keep talking about the fact that she's leaving. there's no point in it. I have to focus on my own stuff, and Justin, ew.
"Wow, I thought this was another date, you just want me to get straight to it."
"D-date? What. psh no." What is with me today?
"Ha ha chill Sel. I'm just messing with you, but I'm starving, can we eat first?"
"Of course, let's go to the kitchen."
"Who are you texting?"
"N-no one."
"Are you okay? What's with the stuttering today?" Ugh I wish I knew.
"I don't really know."
"Am I making you nervous?" Nervous? Just a little. I'm more scared of slipping up than anything. She has no clue how much I think about her, and the things I think about her.
"Psh me nervous? Yeah right. Um this sandwich is really good, I think I'm gonna eat more." I take a huge bite, pretty much half of it in my mouth, but it'll buy me some time.
Jennel: I didn't go too far. I've kinda just been driving in circles. I stopped at McDonald's for some food. You have a nice ass car.
Selena: She's beautiful isn't she? Bring me back a milkshake or something. I'll text you back in a little while. I hope you're prepared for whatever it is that's gonna happen.
"Do you think it's possible to love more than one person at the same time?"
"Yeah, I think it's possible. But I don't think you can be in love with more than one person at the same time."
"I don't know what to do anymore." I hated seeing her like this, but I'm happy she trusts me enough to show this side of her.
"Well tell me, what's going on Demi?"
"I don't know anymore. I can't get over Wilmer. I didn't date Jennel to get over him, I was actually scared of being in a relationship with her. My career didn't matter, it was me, and how I'm scared of falling for someone.
Both Jennel and Wilmer knew how to get passed that, they were able to knock down my walls, but things have changed."
"Do you not love Jennel anymore?"
"No, I love her. I've never questioned my love for her, she means a lot to me, but maybe I'm not in love with her." Ouch.
"Maybe you never tried getting over Wilmer. It could be that you just feel something because he's your ex, you could just like the fact that he's there for you."
"But I kissed him!" I had my doubts, I thought that maybe Wilmer had forced himself on her, I was kinda hoping that was it, for the sake of Jennel, but no, she actually kissed him.
"You what?"
"We've been spending a lot of time together, and we were alone, and he stayed over. So we spent all of yesterday together, and one thing led to the other and then I kissed him. That's when my front door opened and it was the best kiss of my life, I think I've always been in love with him."
She rushed out the last part, maybe so I wouldn't hear it, but what does it even matter, I heard it.
I wanna kiss her, I wanna close the small distance between us and give her a kiss, a kiss that she would consider the best of her life. I wanna give her that kiss that shows all my love, that kiss that can express everything I've ever felt for her, just one kiss, one kiss that won't ever happen.
"O-oh."
"Selena are you o-"
"I really have to pee, I'll be right back." I cut her off and ran down the hall to the bathroom.
I don't wanna let something slip. I know I won't say anything, but I don't have such good control of my emotions. I was close to crying, what would I even say to her? There isn't a good lie for that, it doesn't make sense for me to be feeling this way,
I take a deep breath and splash water on my face. Suck it up Selena, you're her best friend, nothing more than that and she needs you right now, that's all that matters.
"Sorry, couldn't hold it in any longer."
"Ha ha no problem, I know you have a small bladder."
"Yeah. So um what are you gonna do?"
"I don't know. I'm gonna have to break up with her, it wouldn't be fair. "
"Just like that? She's gonna come back and your gonna break up with her? Demi she loves you, she adores you, your her everything, and I thought she was your everything too."
"I mean I don't want to, but I wouldn't wanna hurt her." You're hurting her already, a lot more than you know.
Selena: You should start heading back.
Jennel: I'm in the driveway actually, is everything alright?
I look back up at Demi, I can tell she's having a hard time with this. Everything confuses me right now. Jennel and Demi's relationship was so unique, it was so different than any other relationship. They weren't just a couple, they were basically best friends, they were both completely whipped which was cute because they would always spoil each other. From what I've heard from both of them they're total romantics, you could pretty much see the love radiating off of them. But in a couple of minutes that'll become part of the past.
The way they looked at each other gave away everything, if their love was so obvious I wonder how much she loves Wilmer. My stomach is in knots just by thinking about them.
Selena: I guess? Just come in, I don't have anything to say to her.
Jennel: Okay. I got you a strawberry milkshake, I hope it can cheer you up.
Selena: I'll be up stairs. Good luck.
I set my phone down, I don't even know what to say. There's really nothing more to say. Her mind is made up, I know I won't be able to change it.
"Well, it seems like you know what you want to do. It's your relationship, and you know what's best. Ill be with you no matter what."
"O-okay." Her voice was a bit shaky, I don't get why.
"Umn Demi can you give me a few mintues? I need to go take care of something upstairs. "
"Yeah. I'll just stay down here." We both look at each other when we hear the front door open.
I run out of the kitchen and go to the entrance. I didn't hear any footsteps so I'm assuming she didn't follow.
"Thanks for the milkshake, she's in the kitchen. Good luck." I grab the milkshake out of her hand and run past the kitchen. Unfortunately the stairs are right by the kitchen, so I can't avoid Demi.
"Hey where'd you get the milkshake from? I want one."
"Sorry Demi." I quickly run upstairs, but I'm too late.
"Selena Gomez!" Fuck, fuck,fuck.
How do I even play this off? She's gonna find out the truth because I know Jennel is gonna tell her, but I was hoping Demi would wanna talk to her.
"Jennel? What are you doing here? I thought you missed you flight? It's nice to see you again." I stand next to Jennel and rest my arm on her shoulder. She give me a nervous smile and Demi just stares at us.
"Why don't you guys catch up? I'll be upstairs." I suggest and try to sneak out, but Demi grabs my hand; I couldn't help but smile.I tried hiding my smile, but Jennel caught it because I saw her roll her eyes, that only caused me to smile even more. She didn't do it out of jealously, it was playful.
"Someone explain what's happening. I'm happy you're here Jennel, but why are you here?"
"Well, you see I -" I started talking but Jennel cut me off.
"I wanted to surprise you so I kinda lied about my flight. I asked Selena to pick me up from the airport yesterday." Ooo, she's a smooth liar.
"So if you got here yesterday why didn't you come home?" Dammit Demi couldn't you have let it slide.
Jennel looks at me, there's really nothing to say. Neither of of us wanna bring up Wilmer.
"I begged her not to. I wanted to spend some time with her. Isn't that right Jennel?" I wink at her, telling her to play along.
"Yup. That's right, Selena wouldn't take no for an answer. You know how stubborn she can be." She nudges my side and I smile at her. I'm starting to like Jennel a lot more.
Nothing was said after that, unfortunately. We kinda just stood there, I could feel the tension, you could tell both of them were scared. We all know what to expect, and it's really nerve wrecking.
Demi might go ahead and break up with Jennel, and that's kinda what's expected. I know Jennel is hoping for something else.
"I'll leave you guys to talk."
Demi nods, silently thanking me, and Jennel smiles at me.
I walk up stairs, with my milkshake as well. These things are perfection, they're so sweet and good.
I stop once I make it to the top of the stairs and pull out my phone. I would have wanted to say this in person, but I couldn't since they were standing next to each other.
Selena: Everything happens for a reason, and whatever happens, I'm here for you.
I send both of them the same message, I hear their phones go off at the same time, so I take that as sign to go ahead and just go to my room.
Jennel: Thanks.
Demi: Thanks Sel, we'll talk later.
Bveronika: Actually chapter 3 was in Jennel's pov, chapter 4 is in Selena's pov.
Demenaforever13: Lol I don't even ship Jennel that much anymore. Thanks, I'm glad you enjoy it(:
LovezObsessed: Lol yeah Demi is an idiot.
RainbowVaneza:I'm sorry I didn't update sooner, but you might get two chapters in one day(:
Manhattanpizza: I feel bad for all three of them lol. And yeah Demi fucked up big time.
