Why fall for the straight boy? BXB

Part 9

Taylor's P.O.V

"Be mine Taylor?" Jayden asks me, and my world stops.

Jayden wants me to be his boyfriend?

"Jayden...I can't, not now, not when I have to figure out my own feelings." I tell him, trying my best to let him down slowly.

"Feelings for who? Summer? I should have known." Jayden lets out a bitter laugh, and I can't help but feel guilty.

"Jayden, maybe you should-" Evelyn starts but Jayden doesn't let her finish.

"What did Summer do to confuse your feelings?" Jayden asks, humor in his voice, and there's nothing I can do now.

"He...he kissed me."

I look at Jayden, his smirk falling, replaced by a stone cold expression. Then, all he does is get up and leave.

I came to fix things, but now things are more fucked up than ever.

Jayden's P.O.V

I'm going to kill that sick son of a bitch, how dare he take Taylor away from me!

"Hey Summer!" I call out, knowing he would be in the front of the school. How did I know this? Well, let's just say I have friends who have connections, so knowing anyone's location in this town is easy for me.

"What do you want Jayden? Did Taylor send you over after yesterday?" Summer says, looking scared.

Good, he should be.

"No, I came on my own free will, but now here's my question, why fucking kiss him if you're homophobic? Are you toying with him? You sick fucker, messing with his feelings like that." I spit out at him, my anger not finding a stop.

"I- I don't-wait, did you say feelings? Is that why he cared so much?" Summer asks me, and all I can do is scoff.

"Of course you imbecile, you're messing with him, and taking him away from me in the process! I want him, so back off, before I make you back off, I am not afraid to send you to the hospital again." I threaten, and all he can do is nod. When I turn around, however, He clears his throat, as if to speak, and then he does.

'I'm sorry, I can't back off him. I like him, in what way I don't know, but I like him, I messed with him because, well I was taught from my grandmother that being gay is disgusting, so I always hated myself for it, and hated him for being able to be so open about it. I do like him though, and if you truly wanted him, you wouldn't jump down his throat every time he shows interest in someone. If you truly care and love someone, and you see them happy with someone else, it's better to let them go, before you hurt them. I know I hurt him, so much, I made him cry for heavens sake, but I do want to make up for it." He says, as he turns and walks away.

I sigh, knowing deep down, he's right.

I love Taylor, which is why, I need to let him go be with Summer.

Taylor's P.O.V

I sit on my bed, alone, crying.

Why did everything have to be so difficult? Why did I have to fall for a straight guy? Why?

I hear my phone ring, but I can't be bothered to answer it. I don't want anyone to hear my cries, to hear my pain, to hear my emotions in control.

"Taylor sweetie? Are you ok?" I hear my mother ask on the other side of the door, and instead of responding, I go and open the door, revealing my mother on the other side, her face written with concern as she stares at my tear stained face.
