University - Love Or Lust ~ Chapter 3
11:32 PM. I sigh as I look at the time on my clock. said he was going to sort things out with . It couldn't possibly take that long could it? I toss and turn in my bed as I feel my nerves jolting as time went on.The next thing I knew it was morning. I abruptly pull on my night gown and walk down the stairs to see and slumped on the sofa watching Back To The Future. I make myself a cup of tea and join them.
“Errm , do you know if came back last night” I asked worriedly.
turned and looked at me sympathetically.
“Yeah erm, he did come back.. with ”
WHAT?! He was supposed to break up with her and he's brought her back here?! My heart ached so much as pulled me in for a hug. I know I hadn't known he for long, but I thought he was different. I heard footsteps clammbering down the stairs and turned to see with nothing but a short t-shirt on smirking at me.
“Oh hey guys, sorry if me and kept you awake last night, he's quite loud” and giggled.
Stupid bitch. I gave her a dirty look as she sat on the sofa opposite us.
protectively put his arm over my shoulders as she sat there slurping on her coffee and every now and then smirking at me.
Not long after, I heard someone coming down the stairs. I didn't even need to look up as jumped up squealing “MORNING BABY!!” and jumped on him, forcing her kisses onto him.
I looked up and saw him staring straight back at me, looking very guiltily. I couldn't bare to stay and watch them two slobber all over eachother and I turn to and say “Fancy watching a film upstairs, babe?” and he gently smiles and we walk upstairs as I feel 's eyes burning in the back of my head.
As I lay with my head resting on 's chest watching Superbad, he looks at me.
“, I honestly don't know what is doing. He's an idiot. The first time he ever met you he wouldn't stop talking about you. You're my best friend and I don't want you to get hurt. I feel like it's my fault for introducing you to him” sighed as he hung his head with shame.
“, don't be stupid! I love you, and , you've been so good to me these past few months, I'm happy that I've met them” I smile and he looks up.
“And ?”
“I can't help but still like him , I... I think I might have fallen for him” I bit my lip to stop tears flowing.
He looks me in the eyes and whispers “I'm gonna go and talk to him” Before I even have a chance to respond, I hear the door open and 's gone. Fuck.
made his way down the stairs to be greeted by sitting on 's lap watching TV.
coughs and they both turn around.
“Erm hey , d'you mind popping out and getting us some milk and bread, we've run out” asks and smiles.
“Yeah sure, back in a bit baby” she smirks and runs her hands over 's body. looks in disgust and hear's the front door shut and sits on the sofa next to .
“Dude, what the hell are you playing at” looks firmly at .
“It's complicated...” begins but is interrupted by .
“No, I'll tell you what's complicated, my best friend is upstairs heartbroken because of you, and you have the fucking cheek to bring her back here and be all over her in front of , knowing you slept with her?”
just sat there with his head bowed, looking guilty. As I sit in 's bedroom, I can hear every word.
“And you know the worst thing, ?” sighs.
looks up intrigued.
“She's falling for you, man”
“W...w...what?” stammered.
“You heard, she's an amazing girl dude. 100% better than and she doesn't need you messing with her feelings, so sort it out” slightly shouts and makes his way out of the front door.
Oh god, he knows. Fuck sake , why did you have to tell him that?! Oh no, I can hear footsteps creeping towards the door and I suddenly hear 3 light knocks.
“?” I hear murmur and open the door.
I look up and see him half smiling at me. He sits down on the bed and we sit in silence for what seems hours.
“Listen, what said isn't true, you can date who you want, what happened the other night was a one off” I begin and saw 's face drop.
“A one off? What happened the other night was not a one off ” he started and took my hand. I shuck it off but he continued.
“I know I'm an idiot for bringing back here, but I needed to talk it out with her” he sighed.
“Oh what and you needed to do that by shagging her brains out eh?” I raised my voice annoyed.
“What? I didn't sleep with her” he looked confused as to why I thought this.
“Well she came down this morning and said... oh it doesn't matter what she said, you still slept in the same bed as her, she's still coming back here now, all over you like a rash! I obviously don't mean that much to you” I throw myself towards the door as I feel I'm about to break down. I open it only to see 's big hand slam it shut again and swirl me round.
I gasp as I see the anger tear through his face.
“Do you have any idea what it's like having to break someone's heart? I've been with over a year and no I don't love her, but it's hard to tell her that it's over , I'm not that heartless” he softens.
“Well if you find it that hard then I'll go” I say reaching for the door again. He grabs me by the waist and pulls me into him.
“That's the last thing I want” he breathes.
He pushes my fringe out of my eyes and looks at me.
“I've never felt this way about anyone, you know?” I stare intently at him as he continues.
“It's scary, I feel like I can't breathe when I'm around you” and gently places a kiss on my lips.
“And the other night, for the first time in my life, it didn't just feel like sex. It felt like making love and I've never felt like that, not even with ”
Wow. I couldn't believe what had just happened. leans in and starts kissing me and gently pulls away.
“I think I'm in love with you” he pulls my chin up so i'm looking into his eyes.
“I just need some time to gently break this to her. I know she may seem like a bitch, but she's still human”
I smile weakly at him. Oh god this changes everything.
