I'll Be Fine A Nick Jonas Story (Book Two)

Chapter 27

Joe's POV

I listened silently to my phone after Shannon said, "that's our song." Everything after that was movement being made and I could've sworn I heard a kiss.

Way to go Nick! You're the worlds biggest asshole and genius! Asshole for kissing Shannon and forgetting he's taken.. again. Genius for butt dialing the smart brother. Who now knows how to make things right.

Nick's POV

She quickly pulled away and got onto her feet. Her back was turned from me and she stared at the ground.

"Can we please leave now," she whispered. I stood up to place my hand on the middle of her back, but she swiped it away. "Please, let's just go."

"Yeah let's go," I said softly.

With her in front and me following, we walked to her car. She walked on the cross walk to cross the street. While I simply walked carelessly across the open road. I went to go open the drivers door for her, but she still beat me to it. So I climbed into the passenger side. She placed her keys in, then sat there in silence.

"Maybe this is a mistake, maybe we can't be friends." I saw a single tear roll down her cheek like a raindrop sliding down a window. It made it's way to her jawline line, then fell on her lap. My heart didn't just break for me, but for her as well.

I forgot she was engaged. Like how I forgot to look both ways before crossing the street. It slipped my mind and I didn't pay attention. Like the sign that stood in front me stating no J walking.

I don't care about Ryan and how he might feel if he found out. I could careless for the guy who stole what was suppose to be mine. I was worried about Olivia. I didn't mean for what happened. My mind tends not to work when I'm with Shay. It doesn't tell me right from wrong and I get lost in the moment. It's a weakness I have towards her. I can't seem to control it.

Shannon's POV:

What have I done? I'm getting married in less then two weeks. I glanced at Nick and noticed his eyes were shut. So I took the opportunity to take my ring from the pocket of my dark blue diem skinny jeans. I let it lay in the palm of my right hand. I took my other fingers to feel around the golden edging. I then placed it where it belonged on my finger. Maybe if I was wearing it earlier it would've remind me of my promise. But my promises tend to always break when I'm with him. I can't seem to control it.

I fixed my eyes back at Nick as we continued to sit in silence. His breathing always have this calmness whenever he's upset. While others tend to breath frequently all at once. Some get to the point of having panic attacks.

But not Nick. I've never once seen him get to that level. Unless it was a diabetic episode of some sort. His chest then acts as if it's trying to blow up a balloon.

I then admired at how beautiful this man is. How can girls not fall over that beautiful face with a heart that clearly matches. How can they not get lost in those chocolate swirled pair of eyes. Or kiss those perfect heart shaped soft lips. Having their hands run down that masterpiece of a body, carved by Angels. Or have his strong arms embrace them tightly. Causing you to never want to let go. They must think I'm crazy for giving up on such a delicate, yet powerful human being. The power to make them fall in love. The power to cause me to in love. But I have to do what's best for me.

I started up the car and the rumbling caused my tiny golden chain that hung on my mirror holding my nickname to break apart. It flew onto Nick's lap and he opened his eyes. I glanced over as he held it in his hands by the chain. He looked over at me and motioned to hand it back. I placed my hand stopping it.

"Keep it," I told him. My voice didn't sound hurt nor broken. It sounded like a girl who wanted to let go. He gripped it tightly in his hand then brought it up to his lips. As I stopped at a red light. I gripped his knee for a moment. Just so he knows that he's going to be okay in the end. He took a deep breath and buried it deep in his black jeans right pocket. He didn't even acknowledge that I had touched him. He turned his head away from me and he stared out the window.

The sun peaked through the clouds shinning around my small red Mazda. The light then switched to green. Please let there be a silver lining this time. Don't let us end everything like this. Show me hope that we did the right thing by seeing each other.

What do you think Joe's idea is going to be? Do you think he can save them? Or will it all end in an disaster like everything else?
