Chapter 2
White Lies
Andy's POV
Haley was so…amazing. Her lips were so soft and the way she tugged on my hair…I fell for her. But then Beth walked in…and ruined everything. Haley walked out, and I felt like a small part of me left with her.
"I miss you Andy, I want you back" she said hugging me. Suddenly I was reminded of the young sweet girl I fell in love with when I was fourteen. I hugged her back, suddenly realising that she was crying and apologising. I listened for about 20 seconds when I got bored. I lifted her face up and kissed her lips gently, she smiled and kissed me harder.
"So you'll have me back?" She asked
"Yeah" I replied, still thinking of what was going through Haley's head.
"Great, I'm gonna go then" she said. I felt a small tug in my chest…but not as painful as when Haley left. I guess it was because I was so used to Beth leaving, whereas Haley never leaves…She was always there…I guess that just shows how hurt she was.
I text her a few times and finally got her to agree to come back over.
Haley's POV
I was lucky because as soon as I left the house I got a phone call from Alex asking me to pick her up. I 'reluctantly' agreed although I was super glad I now had an excuse of why I left. I grabbed a jacket from the back of my car…just as an excuse for Alex.
We finally arrived at Grandpas again, just in time because mom and dad were about to leave. We bade our goodbyes and I breathed a sigh of relief as we left, happy that I didn't see Andy again.
Andy's POV
I dreamt about Haley that night…I was mesmerised by her beauty, the softness of her lips against mine, the kiss sent goose bumps around my body and got my heart beating fast. I woke up! I knew that I didn't just want Haley…I needed her! But first I had to break it off with Beth…But if Haley wasn't looking for a relationship then I'd be alone…screw it! I love Beth but I'm in love with Haley. I rang Beth up.
"What are you doing! It's 3 in the morning!" she hissed angrily
"Beth I'm sorry, I can't do this anymore!" I said
"Can't do what? Andy what are you on about?"
"Us…I'm sorry Beth it's over" I said hanging up before she had a chance to yell at me. I dialled the number I memorised so easily, the number that gave me butterflies when I saw it light up on my screen. I was about to press 'Call' when I stopped myself. I was going to do this in person. I fell asleep thinking of ways I could tell her.
The Next Day- Haley's POV
Everyone was out…except me, Alex and Luke needed things for school so mom took them and dad had an open house. It was about 11am, when I heard a knock at the door. I was in the kitchen at the time, I'd just finished my breakfast. I walked over to the door and opened it, suddenly I was pressed against a wall, with the lips I knew so well, on mine. I was mad at him, but I kissed back, I had this undying need for the taste of his lips.
"It's you" he whispered lovingly into my ear. "I dumped Beth, I like you, I want you…I love you" he whispered.
"I love you too" I whispered back. I wasn't aware of what I said until after…but I meant it.
We agreed to go out in a civilised conversation…as well as a lot of lip to lip contact. But we agreed not to tell anyone, as we didn't want to make things awkward for Grandpa and Gloria, or dad as Andy was dad's new assistant. But it suited us…and we were happy.
We did tell everyone 8 months later when Andy proposed, and I love him more each day.
