Isabella picked an outfit and then stood in front of Jaden for some seconds, holding her clothes in her hands.
"What is it baby?" He asked confused.
"Um... Jaden, I um..." She sighed and looked down. "Do you mind if I change in the bathroom? I know you've seen all of it but I just don't feel comfortable a-"
"Baby, of course you can change in the bathroom" he said as he stood up and hugged her tight. "You shouldn't feel uncomfortable around me... But of course you can go, I totally understand"
"I just don't want you to feel like I'm distancing myself from you-"
"I don't think that you do that... Okay?" He said and she nodded looking down.
"Go change" he smiled as he kisses her head and she nodded.

After some minutes he saw her walking out of the bathroom fast, wearing the same clothes as before. She angrily threw a sweater she held on the ground and walked up to the closet.
"What's wrong, baby?" He asked as he stood up and picked up the sweater. He looked at it and then back to the girl, who was still looking through the closet. "This is your favourite" he said.
"I know" she said and then started walking back in the closet, holding another piece of clothing. Jaden sat on the bed and looked at the sweater again. He looked at the neckline, which had a V shape. He pressed his lips together as he tried to fight his tears. She didn't want to wear it because of her marks. He angrily threw it on the floor too, just like she did some minutes before.

After ten minutes, Isabella walked out in some beige wide jeans and a brown turtleneck. Jaden immediately put a smile on and walked up to her. He wrapped his hands around her waist and pulled her close to him.
"Wow, look at my beautiful princess" he said and kissed her forehead.
"Oh wow, where is she?" She asked looking behind her, making him chuckle.
"Shut up" he said and grabbed her chin to kiss her.
"Okay, really now, do I look fat?" She asked after the kiss, taking a few steps back.
"What? Baby..."
"Jaden, just- stop telling me I'm perfect. I'm not. So just- do I look fat? Cause I think my stomach looks weird in these jeans" she said.
"But Bell... You ARE perfect..."
"Jaden. Literally, stop!" She said now looking up at him. "I'm not perfect. And I'm not a baby. I don't need all these comments and shit and- telling me that everything is gonna be okay! It's not okay! Everything sucks! I'm not fine, I'm not okay, I'm hurting, okay? Stop making me feel like a baby!" She said mad and he looked at her with tears in his eyes. "You're the one who needs to hear that I'm fine, okay? I'm not fine!" She said he looked down.
"I'm just trying to help, Bell..." He said.
"You're not helping! Okay? You treating me like this just makes everything ten times worse!" She yelled. Jaden felt a few tears running down his face as he looked at the ground. Her words really hurt him. She knew that she probably didn't mean it, but they still hurt him. He just tried his best to handle the situation and help her get out of her pain. He wiped away his tears and nodded. He had to support her.
"I'm sorry, Bell... I'll- I'll stop, okay? I'll actually help you now" he said as he looked up at her and she started tearing up too. She just broke down crying and slid down the wall.
"I'm sorry" she cried uncontrollably. Jaden sat down next to her and hugged her. "I'm so sorry! You're just trying to help" she crying while gagging on her tears. "I didn't want to hurt you, Jaden" she cried and he hugged her tighter.
"You didn't hurt me baby, it's okay, I know you didn't mean it" he said and kissed her head, although it did hurt him.
"I did!" She yelled louder. "I did! I did! I did!" She cried as she kept yelling.
"Bell, listen to me" he said softly as he stroked her hair. "I know that it's not easy. And if me treating you like that really makes you feel worse, I'm glad you told me, okay?" He said and she kept crying. "Cause I just want to help, and I don't know how to" he said kissing her head as his voice cracked. "I don't know how to help baby, I'm just trying my best" he whispered and she nodded as she hugged his torso.
"I know you're trying Jaden, that's why I didn't want to hurt you, I'm sorry" she said.
"It's okay, Bell... Stop thinking about me" he said. "This is all about you"
"Jaden... Stop doing that..."
"I just don't want you feeling bad about anything else, okay? Cause I know that you already feel bad enough" he said and she looked down.
"Okay" she sighed and he kissed her head again. "I'm sorry" she said and he sighed.
"Bell..."
"Right" she mumbled looking down. "I'm just sorry for crying for no reason all the time" she sighed. "I'm tired of myself and all these stupid feelings" she said.
"I know, baby... I know... But I'm not getting tired of it, and you can always tell me and show me how you feel, okay?" He said and she nodded.
"I'm sorry I told you you make everything worse" she said and Jaden pressed his lips together. "I know I hurt you even though you say I didn't. And I hate hurting you cause I have done that a lot lately" she said and Jaden sighed.
"Look... I don't want to lie to you. It did hurt me... But I know you didn't mean it..." He smiled and kissed her nose. She smiled up at him and kissed his lips.
"So do I look fat?" She asked again nd Jaden laughed.
"No, I swear" he said and she smiled again.
"Are you sure you want to go shopping? You hate going shopping..."
"I don't hate it..." He chuckled.
"You do, Jae. You literally hate it. You always ask if I'm done and if we can go home" she chuckled.
"Well... Maybe but I really do want us to go now" he said and stood up. "Come on" he said pulling her up. "Are you ready?" He asked.
"Um- let me just brush my hair" she chuckled. They both walked in the bathroom and Jaden looked at her through the mirror as she brushed her hair. He walked up to her as she put down the hairbrush and kissed her jaw.
"You look amazing" he said and she smiled looking down.
"I don't have any make up on" she mumbled.
"And you look so beautiful even without it" he smiled and kissed her jaw again.
"Mhm really?" She chuckled.
"Of course, baby. I mean it" he said and she smiled at him.
"Thank you" she giggled and looked down blushing.
"Come on, let's go"

"Hey Izzy" Avani said as they both walked downstairs.
"Oh hey Vani" the girl smiled and hugged her.
"How are you? We haven't talked in a while... Is everything okay?" She asked and Isabella chuckled.
"Could be better" she sighed. "But I'm fine" she said and Avani nodded.
"Where are you two going?" Avani asked. "Together... Alone... After you broke up with Jacob..." She added making Isabella chuckle, but Jaden feel ansure about if she felt bad or not.
"We're going shopping" Isabella said happily.
"Woo, that's good" Avani said. "Go waste his money girl" she winked.
"That's what I'm gonna do" she whispered loud enough for Jaden to hear.
"Ay!"
"You're the one who said that I can buy whatever I want!" She said sticking her tongue out to him.
"Damn it" he joked and looked away making her giggle.
"So are you two back together?" Avani asked excited.
"Uhh... Maybe..." Isabella said looking away.
"Wait- really?!" Avani said.
"Mhm" Isabella said hugging Jaden, making him smile.
"Oh God, finally! You two have been suffering without each other!" Avani said and Isabella chuckled nervously as she looked down.
"Yeah it was quite... Bad..." She said and Jaden sighed.
"Anyway, we have to go now, but we can talk again when we come back" he said and Isabella nodded.
"Cool, have fun!" Avani said as she walked away in the kitchen.

~Three hours later~

"Oh my god!" Isabella groaned loudly as she collapsed on the bed. After some seconds Jaden walked in, with five big shopping bags in his hands. "I'm exhausted" she groaned kicking her shoes off. Jaden chuckled and left the bags on the ground, before walking up to her.
"Did you enjoy your shopping therapy?" He chuckled as he kicked his shoes off as well and lay down next to her.
"Yes! I looooved it!" She giggled.
"Oh I'm sure you did" he chuckled.
"I got so many things!" She squealed.
"I know"
"And they're all so- ugh perfect! Like- that dress was so good! And- oh that shoulder bag- I swear to God it's the cutest thing I've ever seen in my entire life!" She said and Jaden laughed hugging her.
"I'm glad you liked them baby... And you looked beautiful in every piece you tried on" he said kissing her head, making her giggle.
"Well... I could've looked better" she chuckled making Jaden roll his eyes, knowing that she was referring to the marks all over her body.
"It's okay, baby... You already look amazing. And... In some weeks they'll go away, alright? You can even put some make up when they almost go away" he said and she nodded.
"I know..." She said and he smiled. "I'm just stuck up with hoodies and turtlenecks for a while though..." She said and he shrugged.
"I still find you gorgeous" he said and she groaned.
"Stop!" She chuckled and stood up, grabbing her hoodie and sweats that were on the bed next to her.
"Where are you going!" He whined.
"To change!" She said as she walked in the bathroom. She quickly changed into what she was wearing earlier and walked out, jumping on the bed again. Jaden had now changed too.

The two teens cuddled with each other on the bed. They would talk a little bit every now and then, but they mostly just lay in silence.
"Jaden..." She whispered.
"Yes, baby?" Jaden said and looked down at her.
"I love you" she said.
"I love you too, baby" he said and she smiled. Jaden lifted her chin and kissed her lips passionately. After some seconds they both pulled away and Isabella closed her eyes, lying her head on his chest. Jaden kept looking at her smiling to himself. He really loved that girl. He was so happy that he could finally have her in his arms. He hoped that it would have happened in a better way... But he was still happy that they ended up together. From now one, he wouodnt let her go... He wouldn't lose her, ever again...
