Song - Glimpse of us by Joji
***Jeremiah's pov***
That was unlike Belly to go off on Peach. These two had been best friends since any of us could remember. They were supposed to be Laurel and Norah all over again, Steven drove back to the road as we tried to find Peach.
"It was so not cool." Steven finally broke the silence. "Why did you say it was her idea?" I yell at Steven. "It was." Steven defends himself. "She then proceeded to stop us too when she remembered Belly was here on her date." I say irritatedly.
"I'm sorry man. I didn't know Belly would say such stuff. I didn't know she'd taunt her like this, I didn't know she'd bring our relationship into this. " Steven steers further.
"I'm trying to call her. She's not answering." Conrad spoke from the back. "Joe's going to kill us." Steven shivers in his seat.
We see a girl sitting on the curb. "That's her." Steven points out.
If there was anything in the world Steven could do, it was point out who Georgia was from miles away.
He was right, it was Georgia. She was sitting on the curb crying and gasping for air.
I got out of the car as soon as Steven parked it a little far from her. She looked up at the sound of growing footsteps.
I knelt in front of her. "Peach you ok?" I grabbed her hand in mine and she flinched. "Hey, hey, it's me Jeremiah." I calm her down. I brush her hair back and hold her by her face. "She hates me." Georgia whispers. "She doesn't hate you." I shake my head. "Go away Jeremiah." She slaps my hand away. "Peach." I look at her guiltily.
"Go away Jeremiah." She warns me. I get up and walk back to the boys.
*** Steven's pov***
Jeremiah walked back sulking, done no progress in getting her back, Conrad walks ahead but I call him out.
"Dude, no offense but you might as well be the last person she sees with the whole stunt you pulled with Simon. Let me try. After all I dated her, I know her a little." I say patting his back and walking towards her.
What Belly said was true to a certain limit. I had gotten over Georgia after she broke up with me when we were 14, I wasn't sure why but she always had a hold on me. What was great about the break up was I didn't have to see her for another year until summer. Only the summers. Which directly helped me move on. But this summer when she kissed me at the bonfire.
How could I not fall back? I tried.. So hard to move on with Shayla, but first love is always first love. Belly was going to hear from me the next morning for sure for how she treated her best friend.
I grabbed Georgia's hand and pulled her up, I knew she loved to clear her mind walking. So I did just that. I made her walk. "Belly's a bitch ok." I said as I walked beside her. "You don't have to be here. Go home." She spoke through sniffles. "I want to be here." I held her hand as we walked.
she turns to look at me and more tears spill out.
"I'm sorry Steven. I shouldn't be doing this. Depending on you to come make me happy. Depending on you like your my fall back cushion. You have moved on and with a beautiful girl might I add. Shayla'a amazing, she deserves all your attention and here I am hogging all of it. I'm really sorry." She cries even more.
"Hey I love being the guy you need. I'm like kinda happy to know there is someone in the universe that needs me. And that some one being you is just a bonus, Peach." I tilt her head up.
She wraps her hands around my waist and hugs me. I pull her closer and hug her tightly, letting her cry a little more before steering her back to the car which we then drove back to Beck's house.
I helped her to her room and when she asked me to stay, I laid next to her on the bed until she fell asleep. My phone beeped with a notification.
Shayla texted me to meet her at the beach. I checked whether Georgia was sleeping and left the room quietly.
***Belly's pov***
After Peach stormed out from the car, the boys turned to look at me, like I had just committed a felony. "Leave, you guys. Please." I request them and get back to Cam's car.
After the movie was over, Cam drove me back home. I entered the house quietly and walked towards the kitchen as I was still kinda hungry.
I sat on the chair by the counter and poured myself some cereal.
"Oh hey Belly. " I heard Joe's voice. "I didn't see you at the Book party. " He said walking over to the fridge. "No I was at a date." I inform him. "A date huh." He smiles at me knowingly. "Yeah." I smile back.
"Do you know where Georgy is?" He asks. "She isn't home?" I perk up, looking at him guiltily. "Well I saw Connie, Jere and Stevie, with whom she left but not her. " Joe informs. "Did- did you check her room?" I ask him.
"Belly, Georgy's not a room person. She never stays in her room, even when she's sleepy she'll rather fall asleep on the couch than walk all the way to her room." He laughs.
"This is my fault." I clutch my head. "Hey how was your hot date? " I hear Conrad walk in. "Excuse me? " I turn towards him angrily.
Firstly because, he ruined my date, secondly because he didn't care to search for Georgia.
"Relax we were just joking ok.. " Conrad holds up a hand in surrender. "You guys are assholes. " I cuss them out.
"What's going on guys?" Joe butts in.
"All I wanted was to go to a drive in movie with a guy I really liked and you and Georgia had to ruin it." I accuse him. "Speaking of her where is she? " Joe questions the two of us.
Ignoring him, Conrad steps closer. "Peach had nothing to do with it ok. You were wrong to insult her like that. Do you know how fucking hurt she is. First her boyfriend fucks up her mind and then you bring out stuff about her and Steven and blame her because you were having a crappy first date. She took off solely because of you. What if she's hurt and we don't know. What if something happened to her while she was alone at night on the quiet road? " Conrad goes off on me.
"I need one of you to explain me where the fuck Georgia is right now. " Joe slams his hand o the table. "She's in her room, sleeping, Joe.She's tired, She's already had a crappy day. You can thank Belly for the worst end. " Conrad hisses.
Joe takes off towards Georgia's room leaving me and Conrad in the kitchen.
"I just wanted to have a nice first date with a cute and sweet guy and you guys had to ruin it." I say shaking my head sadly. "Us showing up for like 2 minutes ruined your date. Grow up Belly." Conrad says before walking toward the cabinet.
"Why couldn't you let me have this one thing? " I press my hands to the counter.
"What are you talking about?"
"You knew what you were doing."
"What- what was I doing? "
"Reminding me you existed."
"I don't know what your talking about. "
"You cared who I was with, where I was , what I was doing. " I spat out angrily.
"I don't care." Conrad rolled his eyes.
"Stop lying. " " Stop being a baby. " "Oh and your such an adult, you just spent you Saturday evening crashing my first date... For fun." I speak through gritted teeth.He takes a huge swig from the beer bottle he was holding for so long.
"Fine I - forget it. Why don't you go smoke some more pot? " I taunt him."Why don't you go look In the mirror some more?"
i wonder if maybe this was how all crushes died. In whimper and slowly and then just gone.
