THIRTY-EIGHT

Jessica made a quick trip around her room to make sure she got everything.

"Miss Jessica." Sonia walks into her room. "You have a visitor."

"Who is it?" Jessica asked confused, wondering who would be here this early. Her manager was able to snag her an early ticket to Paris for fashion week. She could use that for relaxation before fashion week actually starting. 

"Mr Nate. I can tell him you left already."

"Sonia, it's fine." The girl said walking out the door. "I need to know why he's here."

Sonia nods and follows the girl downstairs.

You got this Jessica.

"I'll give these bags to Paul." Sonia says as she takes her bag and leaves not before mouthing, 'everything's going to be okay' to the girl.

"Hi." Nate says.

"Hi." Jessica said back.

"Hi." He says again.

If it was a different situation, Jessica would laugh at the boy at how nervous he was.

"Why are you here Nate?" Jessica asked.

"I don't know. I guess I've been thinking a lot about yesterday and you were right. I don't love Sage like how I love you and I'm sorry for being the biggest idiot ever. And I just I didn't mean to break up with you all of a sudden." Nate stared at the girl, she could see tears coming out. "I'm not good with these types of things. I fall in love with the wrong person all the damn time. I have no sense of direction whatsoever when it comes to love. I can't seem to do anything right because the only girl that makes me laugh, understands me, makes me feel like I can be myself, I broke her heart."

"Nate..." Jessica says again but he interrupts her.

"Don't go." His bright blue eyes telling the girl to stay.

"I have too."

Lies.

"I'll wait for you to come back."

Jessica shook her head. "Please don't. Even if you don't love Sage like you love me, she's been there for you, don't give that up for me." 

"But she's not you." Nate shouted.

Jessica looked away, tears threatening to come out. "Nate don't make this harder than it already is."

"You're the one who's leaving."

"Because I have too."

Nate shook his head. "Paris fashion week doesn't start for another 2 weeks, I checked."

Jessica looked down. He checked, shouldn't that mean something? "I need some time to think about everything. My career, friends, you. Please let me go." 

"Jessica."

"Please." Nate looked at the girl before nodding and lets go of her hand. 

"Wait." He grabs her wrist again. "A kiss goodbye."

A kiss goodbye. That was always something they did when they fooled around. A kiss to let the other person know it won't be the last time they will see each other. But this was different. He was still with Sage and it would be cheating. And no matter how much she hated Sage, she couldn't do that to her. But her mind wasn't thinking that and did what she'll regret.

Jessica smashed her lips onto his and there was an instant connection. And in that moment Nate knew what he had to do.
