| I sat down on the couch, laying my head on AJ�s shoulder. He was talking to Brian about something and I was bored. Just another two months on this damn bus! I saw Nick walk in and listened to the guys talk. Two months ago, I thought we were happy. A month and a half ago, he proved it all wrong. But I was not going to help him decide what he wanted in a woman. I didn�t play those games, didn�t want to play it. AJ put his arm around my shoulders and hugged me closer to him. No, we weren�t dating, not yet. But the feelings were there and we could both feel it. Just chose that we weren�t going to do anything as of yet. I sighed, finally understanding what the guys were talking about, something that was happening at the last few concerts. �Nick, what do you think?� �I think that hoe is whacked. I mean, she just doesn�t look sane. Any ideas Resa?� �Maybe someone one of you guys met, like a pass by type shit. Just trying to get attention. Unless she attacks someone, I wouldn�t think twice of it.� �Sounds like a plan.� I smiled at AJ and he smiled back. �Want something to drink baby girl?� �Would love one.� �Anything in particular?� �Just a soda please.� He smiled and walked to the kitchen. I followed him and turned my head, my eyes locking with Nick�s. I smiled and got up to follow AJ. My eyes watched her every move these days. No, anger wasn�t why. Nor was it jealousy. I just didn�t understand. She was never so carefree with me, never so laid back. And they weren�t even dating. Yet she loved him and AJ told me plenty of times, he�s loved her. She was supposed to be my girl. And yet, she was flirting with AJ. Okay, so we broke up, no big deal. She had every reason too. Just very saddening though. AJ was treating her like a queen. Getting everything for her or anything her heart wanted her. I stood up and left the room. That was complete bull shit. They were going to make me sick when they started dating. I laughed, tossing my hair over my shoulder. I shook my head at this guy. I glanced at Howie and he was watching me. �Can I talk to you sis?� �Sure bro.� He stood up and let me walk into the living room first. �What�s up?� �You love AJ?� �Yeah, I have for some time. Just didn�t want to think about it cause I thought I loved someone else.� �You know AJ cares for you. Is in love with you, actually.� �I know. We�ve talked about it.� �How long ago?� �Just a few days ago. It�s scary Howie. Nick burned me real bad and though I know AJ isn�t like that, it still hurts. And being the romantic that Alex is, he�s waiting for me.� �That�s good. AJ knows you all to well. Just don�t hurt one another. That puts me in a very hard position.� I smiled at Howie. �You know I would never do that. I love you to much to do that.� �Good.� He gave me a hug and walked back to the dinning room. I sat down on the couch, not hearing another person enter the room. �Resa?� My eyes locked with his brown ones. Damn those eyes! �Hey Alex.� He knelled in front of me and grabbed my hands. �You okay?� I took a deep breath and smiled. �I�m fine.� He fingertips softly brushed my cheek, moving his hand so the back of his fingers were caressing my skin. �I love you Theresa.� �I love you too AJ.� I closed my eyes, enjoying the feeling of his soft skin, could smell his soft cologne. I knew he was near and I felt his lips so slightly on mine. This was right, so very right. His hands moved downwards, holding my arms and I pressed my hands lightly on his chest. Very slowly we pulled away and I smiled at him. �I had to do that Resa. Please, forgive me.� �No, no sorries Alexander. I loved that, I love you.� He smiled and picked me up, spinning around. �Does that mean�� �Yes it does.� He laughed, his lips claiming mine once again. They laughed, they joked, they were too damn perfect, just fuckin� throwing their love in my face. So, I slept around, who doesn�t? Man, committing yourself to one person is very scary. I sighed, quickly leaving the kitchen for the living room. �You look rather down man.� I glanced up at Kevin and smiled. �Yeah, just a tad.� �Dude, how could you let her get away?� �I have no idea Kevin. She just did.� �How many times did you cheat on her?� I sighed and hung my head. �Quite a few.� �And why?� �Because it was fun. I never loved any of them, she was the only one.� �And yet you did nothing special for her.� I just looked at him. �What does it matter now? She�s gone and she�s in love with him.� I racked my fingers through my hair and sighed. I glanced at the gift on my lap. A little box, wrapped in yellow with a little bow on top. I raised my eyebrow, not fully understanding what could be in there. �What is this?� �A present. Open it up.� I sighed, slowly taking off the paper. He rolled his eyes and I laughed at him. I lifted the lid and found a small jewelry box inside. I glanced at Alex and slowly opened it up. Inside was a small diamond solitaire so neatly set upon a row of rubies. �Oh my God Alex, it�s wonderful.� �I�m glad you like it.� He slipped it on my ring finger and I just about died. �Not the usual engagement ring, but I saw it, and thought it looked just as lovely as you. Yet, that�s nothing compared to you.� I wiped the tear from my cheek and smiled at him. �Alexander, you spoil me. I love you beyond words. And yes, marrying you would be the greatest thing.� �I�m glad you feel that way baby, cause I couldn�t agree more.� I smiled once again, leaned against AJ�s body, being the happiest woman alive. �Okay, that does it, I give up! Men just totally suck!� �What happened?� I turned around and glanced at AJ. I rolled my eyes and walked out of the room. �I swear to God, I haven�t done anything.� |
