Forever

Chapter 23

Jen's POV

I finally managed to break eye contact with Beau. I looked down and nervously pushed my hair behind my ear. When I looked back up Beau was still looking at me but in small glances. I could see he was holding hands with a girl. Wait... isn't that the girl I caught him cheating with? Oh my god. I guess he took my advice. I told him to go on with her and he did. I felt tears brimming to my eyes thinking about everything we had been through. I realized Harry was talking to them and I still had my arm wrapped around his.

"I love the design in the bedroom." the girl said when I finally snapped out of my trance. She looked at Beau and smiled scooting closer to him.

"Yeah, well there's still more to see. We can't just settle because we like the bedroom." Beau laughed nervously and glanced at me.

Harry laughed with him and I cleared my throat bringing the attention to me.

"Oh I'm sorry," Harry said and hooked his arm around my waist pulling me closer, which I did without reluctance,"Beau, Julie. This is my girlfriend Jennifer. Jen, this is Beau and Julie, they're thinking about renting out this place." He smiled and I reached out to shake Julie's hand. I guess she either didn't recognize me or she just didn't care. I shooke Beau's hand too, but I really didn't want too.

I let go quickly and scooted closer to Harry.

"So do you guys wanna see more of the house?" Harry asked.

"Babe?" Beau turned to Julie and asked.

"Of course." Julie said smiling and pecked Beau on the lips.

I had to turn away. I just couldn't watch that. I now we broke up and I don't feel anything anymore towards him, but it sill bugs me that he is with someone else. I shoved that thought into the back of my mind and looked up and gave my best fake smile at Harry. He smiled his genuine smile that could make any girl melt. He bent down and kissed me, smiling into the kiss. We let go a few seconds later and out of the corner of my eye I could see Beau trying to turn away.

"Right this way." Harry told Beau and Julie as we walked down the hallway to the other end of the apartment. We showed them the master bedroom and bathroom. Also the kitchen and dining room. They were loving it so far.

"I love the color in the master bedroom and bath. Its just so calming." Julie said smiling at Beau.

"Yeah. Thats what I loved about it too. When Harry first brought me here I fell in love with it. I actually stayed in there for like two days. I never wanted to leave." I told Julie while still holding Harry's hand. Julie had her arm around Beau's waist.

"I don't think it was the color of the room that made you stay in there, Jen." Harry gave me a devilish smirk that turned me on. I playfully hit his arm and blushed. I saw Beau and Julie just watching us.

We all went to sit at the table to let Beau and Jullie decide what they wanted to do. We ordered pizza and sat there like old friends. I guess I was hiding my akwardness pretty good. Harry didn't seem to notice how I kept scooting closser to him. He put his hand on my thigh and I rested my head on his shoulder. I didn't even notice that Beau and Julie was still there. Julie looked at us in awe. Beau was just staring at his pizza.

"So how long have you guys been together?" Julie asked. I picked my head up.

"About six months." I smiled looking at Harry.

"Wow. Thats a long time." she said. Which kind of threw me off. I didn't think six monts was enough time. It feels like me and Harry have been together forever. And I love it.

"And you guys. How long have you and Beau been together?" Harry asked.

"Um, officially. We've been together for three months. But I love him so much, I wanted to move in with him as soon as possible." She looked at Beau and he wrapped his arm around her and kissed her.

"Well love is love. You gotta take it before its gone." I smiled and leaned on Harry. Beau shifted uncomfortably.

"Well its getting late." I said and stood up,"I'll clean off the table and you guys can take a seat in the living room. I'll be right there." I said taking the plates and trash off the table. Everybody stood up.

"Here let me help you." Beau said, taking some of the trash in his hands.

"I'll see you in a minute baby." Harry said and pecked my lips.

I walked into the kitchen and Beau followed behind me. I put the stuff in the trash, and turned around to wash my hands.

"Where do I put these?" Beau asked.

"Um, over there." I gestured to the trash can, without turning around.

He put the plates in the trash and walked up behind me.

"Jen. Look, i'm sorry, okay." Beau said reaching for my hips. I spun around so fast I think I hit him with my hair.

"Don't you ever touch me," I growled,"You don't realize what you've done. Have you? I loved you. I gave you everything I could give you. I gave you love. I gave you me. And you threw it all away. For what Beau? Just so you could break my heart. I can't believe you." I said trying to keep my voice down.

"You think your innocent don't you," He closed the space between us puting his arms on both sides of the counter, blocking me in,"Right after you were done with me you went and found someone else. I tried to explain but you wouldn't let me." he said it all in an audible whisper. Nothing but anger in his eyes.

"Explain what Beau?" I spat back but just enough so he could hear,"Explain why I caught you in bed with another girl. Or the fact that you guys had been doing it long enough to have pet names for eachother. We had been dating for a year, Beau. I fucking year. So how long has that been going on, huh? While I was at work what did you do? Bang her all day? I trusted you. And yeah, now I found someone whos going to treat me well. I found someone who loves me. But I did NOT go find Harry right after we broke up. I was heartbroken, I waited for someone to come fix me. And he did. So don't you ever say that I just walked away and found someone else. I love him. And there is nothing you can do about it." I said pushing past him making my way to where Harry was sitting on the couch.

I sat as close as humanly possible. I wrapped my arm around his and intertwined our fingers. He let me do so willingly and afterwards scooted me closer to him. Beau came out of the kitchen a few seconds later and sat next to Julie putting his hand on her thigh. I looked away and leaned my head on Harry's shoulder.

"So what do you guys think of the apartment?" Harry asked.

"I love it. Its amazing." Julie said smiling.

"Sooo..." Harry said.

"We'll take it." Beau said having a devilsh grin. I snapped my head up and saw Julie squeeling and kissing Beau. Beau pulled away and looked at me and Harry.

"So, where do I sign?"

Oh Shit.
