At break the twins practically cuddled the life out of me. Apparently Cole had text the guys that I was upset about âprivate thingsâ and didnât want to be quizzed about it. I gave him a grateful look that he seemed to understand, he did his cool-guy-head-nod-thing in return. They even let me pick where we went for lunch, and they paid! I put on a brave face, trying to steer away from any subject that could be related to Declan. Even so though, I could check my phone every five minutes for a text from him.
About two oâclock I got a text, from my dad. He told me that Marissa was doing fine and they would be home tomorrow night, which I was glad for. I knew that if my mum or dad saw me moping about they would question me into telling them what had happened. I even text Declan asking if we could forget about the whole thing and put it behind us. He didnât reply.
Later That Night...
I was sitting in the boyâs living room with them all. Ashley was sitting on my left side and Aiden on the right and Romeo lying on my lap. We were cuddled under a huge blanket, (because I was apparently complaining that it was cold, even though I made no such remark.)Sitting on a sofa point the biggest TV Iâd ever seen. Well, I say TV; it was more of a home-cinema type thing. Cole was lying casually on the floor in front of us and would look up to smile at me or ask if I wanted anything. Jamie was sitting in a small armchair to the right of the room, being as quiet as usual.
We were watching Fast and Furious: Fast Five. It was rubbish! But then again I hadnât seen the other four, and on the plus point Vin Diesel was in it. They promised I could pick the next movie, and trust me; they were going to regret it. I would pick the girly-ist film possible- even if I didnât like it.
âPizza anyone?â Cole asked jumping to his feet and grabbing a pizza menu.
The next few minutes was filled with everyone shouting orders at him- apart from Ashley who repeatedly shouted âFlamingoooâ until I put my hand over his mouth.
âEww!â I shouted, I pulled my hand away so he couldnât keep licking it. He just sat there with a cheeky smile on his face. We ordered our pizzaâs and carried on watching the movie. I felt my phone vibrating ion my pocket and pulled it out wishing it was Declan. It was.
âHello?â I asked, expecting him to reply with an apology. Instead came a girlâs voice.
âHello is this- whatâs her name again? - Oh, is this Jodie?â She asked, and had obviously been drinking. Cole had paused the movie so I could talk properly, although I couldnât hear her much over the music and shouting in the back ground. I put my phone on speaker mode so I could try to hear her a little better.
âW-Whoâs this?â I asked her. It wasnât Ali or Jaz, it didnât even sound like Chloe. Dread rose up in my stomach and I stuttered my words. Why was this girl ringing, on Declanâs phone, asking for me?
âItâs Amber.â She said like I should know, Her tone of voice was so bitch and argumentative that I was kind of glad I wasnât there. I donât even know why Declan would be, well, where ever he was. He didnât like people who acted like this. His words from earlier rang in the back of my mind, Iâll do the same.
âAmber who?â I asked squeezing my eyes closed. None of the boys were looking at me, but I knew they were listening and thinking the same thing I was. Tears were threatening to pour out at any second.
âDeclanâs girlfriend Amber.â And thatâs when Cole grabbed the phone from me. I sat there shocked, and unable to hold the tears in any longer. Ashley and Aiden moved so they were sitting as close to me as possible, whispering things and stroking my hair. Jamie even moved over and gave me a hug.
âTell Declan not to ring her in the morning, or heâll have me to answer to.â Cole said calmly, although even I could hear the anger in his voice. He hung up and walked over to me. He offered me his hand, which I took and he lead me into the kitchen. I was still in a trance-like state, were all I could do was cry and stare ahead of me.
He didnât talk when we got the kitchen; he just pulled me tightly against him and hugged me for what seemed like hours. The tears had stopped, although I wished they hadnât. Now I could picture it. Declan with some slutty looking girl on his arm, them kissing. Them laughing at my expense, him telling her to ring me. Cole pulled me in tighter, and I looked up at him. Our lips were inches away, and I so badly wanted to kiss him. I wanted to feel as though someone wanted me, as though I was loved. But I knew this wasnât what was right, Cole was my friend and I wouldnât do that just because I was upset about Declan.
âThank you.â I whispered and put my head back on his chest. He told me a few minutes later that I could sleep in one of the guest rooms and he would drive me home in the morning, which I was glad for, I really didnât want to be alone.
I went upstairs to bed not long after, with Romeo at my feet. I may have my friends, but it cost me Declan.
Chapter Nineteen
Just a quick note guys, I really need some opinions on whatâs going on in this book. Iâm glad you all like it & love the comments telling me you do, but I need to know if you like the characters, and other stuff. Anyways, hereâs chapter nineteen! LYA MB x
Chapter Nineteen
âI love you, Jodie.â Declan said pulling me onto his lap and kissing me lightly. I laughed and kissed his nose, causing him to wrinkle it up and grin. It only made me laugh harder.
âI love you too Declan.â I told him truthfully and got up from his lap. I walked to the CD player in his bedroom and skipped through the songs on his All Time Low CD until I found which one I was looking for. I pressed play and listened to the words.
I fixed my hair in his small mirror and turned around to face him, a sexy smile playing on his face. The smile fell from my face though when I saw Declan with another girl sitting on his lap, just like I had been. I felt my heart break into a million little pieces as I heard him say the same words to her as he just had to me. Tears were flowing down my face and my broken heart was pounding in my chest. Other than that though I was frozen to the spot.
I wanted to run and grab her from him; I wanted to scream, to punch. Instead I stood there watching them, I didnât want to- who would want to see the man they loved with another woman? - But I couldnât look away. I watched them kiss, I watched her giggle an âI love you to himâ, I watched him repeat it. With every second that past I could feel myself dying a little inside. I was waiting for them to acknowledge me being there, only a minute ago was I sitting with Declan. They didnât though; they carried on kissing and laughing with each other.
The pain was building up in my chest and I knew that if I wasnât frozen to the spot I would have dropped to my knees by now. The crying had been replaced by a hysterical scream and I clasped my hands over my mouth instinctively.
They both turned to look at me, with mascara down my red blotchy face and laughed. Declan smirked at me and focused back on the blonde that was now straddling him. She, on the other hand was laughing at me as though Iâd just told the funniest joke in the world. âHeâs my boyfriend now.â She said and turned around to kiss Declan passionately. Declan, My Declan.
Then instincts took over and I began to scream, I wanted to kill her, and him.
Thatâs when I was woken up by Cole; he was holding both of my shoulders, gently shaking me and repeating my name over and over. I stopped creaming and sat up straight. I looked around the room, it was dark and I knew the sun would be rising soon.
Cole was sitting next to me on the bed, I figured he must have just waked up because his dark hair was messier than usual and he was only wearing boxers. Yesterday another sight of his chest might have sent a few sparks running through me, but right now all I wanted was to be consoled. I knew I was still sobbing quietly and my heart was still racing.
âAre you okay, Jodie?â Cole asked after a few minutes, I looked up to him and only just realised how close we were. One of his hands had slid down to the bottom of my back and the other on my forearm. His eyes were full of concern and I would tell that he was genuinely worried about me.
âNo, but I will be.â I told him honestly. I moved over in the bed and pulled Cole so that he was laying next to me on his back. I could tell by his face he was shocked with what I was doing, and didnât know what was happening. I smiled and pulled the covers up as I laid my head on his chest.
Cole stroked my hair for ages after that, neither of us talking. I had stopped crying and was just trying to figure everything out in my head. I felt as though someone had torched my heart, and there was nothing I could do about it. How could Declan do this to me?
How could he tell me he loved me, and then just cheat on me like I was nothing to him? Why would he do this to me, I did everything for him, I loved him. Everything reminded me
