krista

kian took me all over the city. we went to Times Square, Central Park, and many bars. It was now 7:06 am and I have a pounding headache. I'm in my own bed but a shirtless kian's next to me with his arms wrapped around me. oh my god. did we sleep together? was I really that drunk? oh god.

"kian. wake up." I whispered and shook him a bit.

"my head hurts. I wanna sleep. what even happened last night?" He said in a grouchy voice.

"I have no idea." I replied.

I looked over at kian and he's already fallen back asleep. I snuck into the shower because I felt disgusting and put on some clean clothes. I checked my phone to see a text from jack, asking me to see a movie with him today. I texted jc and asked if I could come over to his place. I needed to clear my head.

from: cloud boy

sure kris come over

I left a sleeping kian in my bed. I'll explain it to my mom later. she's rather fond of him so she shouldn't mind. I drove to jc's house. he was already standing outside.

"hey! why are you here so early?" he asked.

"kian and I went out to the city and I think we got really drunk and maybe slept together. he was in my bed this morning. I don't remember anything and neither does he." I explained.

"oh god. technically it wasn't cheating because you were drunk and don't remember it."

"and jack and I aren't dating officially." I reminded him.

"you need to tell jack though." jc was right, I need to tell him.

"perfect timing I guess because I have a date with him today." I said.

"well. the key to a good relationship is honestly." jc always says deep crap like this. he does give good advice, though.

"gee thanks for the advice Dr. Phil. I'm gonna go home and see if kian left yet. thanks for the help." I opened my car door and drove home.

kian was still in my bed when I got home. I had to kick him out since jack was coming to get me soon. I didn't want another awkward confrontation between them.

I had no clue what to wear on my date with jack. I decided on a nice skirt and top, even though it's just the movies. I saw jack's car pull up in my driveway and I stepped outside my front door.

"hey! long time no see." jack said, with that adorable smile plastered on his face and pulled me into a hug.

"I know, I missed you so much. what movie are we seeing?" I was hoping it wasn't something stupid.

"how about The Avengers?"

"yay! let's go."

jack's car is very nice. it's a matte black Range Rover. we pulled up to the movie theater and he payed for my ticket. he also bought my popcorn and drink.

the previews were extremely boring, like usual. mostly crappy horror films and stupid romantic comedies. the movie was finally starting. the marvel movies were some of my favorites, so I was really excited to see this.

"you like it so far?" jack whispered.

"of course. it's really good even though it's only been five minutes." all that was on my mind was kian. I need to tell him.

next thing I know, jack is leaning in for a kiss. I kiss him back, reluctantly.

"what's wrong?" he asked.

"nothing..." I leaned in to kiss him again. I didn't want him to get suspicious. don't get me wrong, I like jack a lot. I just can't get over kian.

we finished the rest of the movie in silence. when we were leaving, I noticed that jack look sort of sad.

"krista. I might be jumping to conclusions, but it seems like you don't like me as much as I like you. you seemed distracted tonight. you hardly ever make plans with me. why is that?" I knew this would come up. he knows me too well. 

"jack... It's not that I don't like you. I really do. It's just, kian. I still like him. you're the sweetest guy I've met and you deserve a girl who won't treat you like this. you deserve to be put before anyone else and right now, I just can't do that. I'm sorry." I'm glad I got that off of my chest.

"It's okay. If you ever need anything or change your mind, I'll be here." he kissed me on the cheek and then left.

I was crying, I don't really know why. technically I broke up with him. if that's even what this was considered. we weren't even dating. I dialed kian's number. on the fourth ring he finally picked up.

"krista it's late. what's up?"

"I don't mean to bother you but can you pick me up?" I asked.

"I thought you were on a date. wait, are you crying?" he said.

"just pick me up at the movies." I abruptly hung up and waited.

-

"what happened to you and the boyfriend?" I don't really want to tell him.

"we sort of broke up." I said quietly.

"why?" he asked.

"do you remember anything that happened last night?" I was hoping he would.

"no. all I know is that we were extremely drunk." great.

"well. we sort of slept together? I think? I don't even remember." ugh. kill me.

"oh shit. seriously?" he laughed.

"yeah. I couldn't stop thinking about it." I mumbled.

"damn. was it really that good?" oh my god.

"kian! that's not what I meant. I mean, it made me realize that I don't like jack as much as I thought. I understand if I'm being a complete idiot and if you don't like me back but-"

I was cut off by his lips crashing onto mine.
