---Sam's POV---

I couldn't calm myself down. I had shortness of breath so I sat on the bench centered at Owen's huge garden alone, hoping I would soothe serenity. Owen was badly bruised in his left rib area and some bruises plastered on one part of his lower eye. Britney took care of him inside, applying icepacks gently upon them.

I hissed in pain as I noticed what Jake had done to my right hand. It was hard for me to reposition my fingers, guessing it must be sprained. As I was stroking my palm, the ring resting around my finger caught my attention. Jake bestowed it to me as a present after our first month together. I could recall the promises he pledged and the trust I had put up so much for him, knowing that he would never hurt me. But it was all lies after all.

We're done Jake, there's no turning back.

I slowly took it off my finger using right hand, still painful. I managed to pull it off in rough manner until I felt the presence of someone sitting right beside me.

" The promise ring?"

" Mm-hmm." I nodded.

"Sam, I'm sorry."

"Owen it hurts me whenever I hear you apologizing for something that's actually my fault. It has nothing to do with you, so please? Please don't add up."

His gaze broke down to the ground, looking really guilty. " But if I hadn't stranded into your house when I was eight and hadn't met you, you still could've been with Jake till' now. I'm the problem right?"

"So you're regretting our friendship? Owen I gave him up because of you, do you want me to regret my decision as well?"

" Well no but it makes me feel guilty" He raised his voice a bit, showing his bashful side.

" You're badly bruised, get inside and let Britney take care of them. Do it for me please"

"Britney's taking care of the babies"

I continued to twist the ring out through my finger but it slid off too quick that it flew aimlessly on the very level-cut grass. As I was about to stand up and hopefully find it somewhere I don't know, he stood first before me and got track of where it landed. He was about to hand it over to me but something seemed to stop him halfway. He probably changed his mind when he saw my right hand badly swollen.

"Who did that?"

I didn't answer him.

"Who the hell did that?! It's Jake right? Didn't he get enough of what I did to his face?" he steamed up, rankly. Temper dear...

He continued to reach the ring towards me. I thought he was about to hand me the ring now but unexpectedly, he gently pulled my left hand and laggardly slid it into my ring finger.

"You still do love him, don't you?" he said with a painful expression.

"After all he did to me? Do you think I could still love him? I had enough of him, we're done." I uttered as I pulled my hand away from the ring which was halfway placed. I snared the ring and threw it as far as my power could exert. " We're done!"

"Are you in pain Owen?" I asked as I saw his undetermined expression.

"Must be my rib area" He clearly looked like he was lying. " I'm going inside now, you better come along, it's getting chilly out here."

"Sure, yeah."

I followed him inside after a couple of minutes later. It really was freezing out there, I just managed to stay tough to cover up my weakness from Owen. I decided to check for my baby but as soon as I opened the door of Owen's room, the first thing my eyes witnessed was Britney and Owen's lips together. I rapidly shut the door close to give them some privacy. What the f*ck just happened? Obviously, like everyone else's reaction would be, I was completely in shock. Owen kissed Britney?

I honestly felt like I hated Britney for no reason. No way, was I jealous? Jealous in the means of friendship or affection? I didn't want myself to admit it. He was only my best friend, Nothing less or more. However, I was building up some feelings for him lately but I wasn't sure if the attraction was positive or negative. It scares me whenever I thought that way so I decided to hide them or better get rid of it before I truly could fall for him. He may be my best friend but I believe it never was illegal to like him, he was still the guy whom any girl could fall for. But for now, My heart still ached for Jake.

---Owen's POV---

It was hard for me to leave Sam outside in the cold alone. I didn't know how to react towards her question anymore. Should I bring her in myself?

As I got in my room, I saw Britney looking questionably at Baby Julia.

"Is this baby Sam's?" She stood up, ambling closer to me. I tried keeping my distance away from her but as I wondered backwards, it was spaceless, causing my back to be in contact with the wall.

"Yes" I blurted out.

"You like her don't you?"

"N-, No" I stuttered. So was I lying? I guess my feelings didn't count. We were just friends.

"Well, do you like me?"

"Britney, let's not talk about this matter."

She came closer and closer to me. "So you're not denying?"

I didn't deny her question because I never had the guts to hurt a girl. But I sure was so bad in answering their questions when tensed. "I guess not?"

Out of the blues, she kissed me intimately and all I did was stand there in collision. I didn't kiss her, she stole the kiss from me. Girls barely stole them from me because they could'nt reach my lips for I was too tall for them. But unluckily, Britney was wearing these kinds of heels which made her look like she was wearing hooves, but upgraded.

The last time I remembered kissing a girl was when I was wasted. I didn't even know who she was. I guess another secret that nobody knew about me, even Sam didn't was that I never kissed a girl where I consciously did the first move. Even a heart throb like me wasn't like any other seductive sluts out there luring girls 24/7. I was just not that kind of guy. I guess I was quite a picker since all the girls I had been crushing on didn't give me enough pleasure.

I broke the kiss and stopped her from eating my mouth off by pushing her away from me. She was kissing me roughly and without looking at the mirror, I could tell my lips were bleeding red.

I told her to leave since it was getting late and to let the moment pass by.

"I'll miss you Owen" she said as she got Baby Pumba with her.

"Where are you taking him?" I selfishly frowned as if he was all mine.

"It's my turn to take care of him remember?" she blushed like red paint.

I still do want him with me but connecting it to my problems, I guess he had to go with Britney for now.

"Take proper care of him okay?"

"More than my life" she smiled. Over-reacting again as usual.

"Be careful and take care of yourself as well" I added since it was getting dark and unsafe for a girl who was wearing a mini skirt.

She nodded and blew me a fly kiss.
