"My Best Friend" A James Maslow Fan Fiction

Chapter 29 & 30

Chapter 29

~James POV~ 

As soon as those words left me mouth I regretted them.  

Annabel stood up, obviously angry, "What do you mean I can't handle it?!" She shouted.  

"I didn't mean it like that. Let me explain!" I pleaded grabbing her hand.  

She moved away. "Don't touch me."  

"Please baby let me explain!" I begged.  

"No. You said it." She said storming away.  

I followed her.  

"You can't just walk away! Can't we talk about this?" I asked.  

"No. I can't handle it!" She said in a mocking voice.  

She picked up Kendall and a diaper bag and stormed out the door.  

I followed her to the lobby. "Where do you think your going?! You have nowhere else to stay!" I said thinking she'd come back.  

"I'll stay in a hotel." She screamed back not stopping.  

"Annabel please!" I shouted but she didn't hear me. I watched her walk away. She didn't turn around. I fell to my knees and began to cry. Yes, I, a fully grown man, began to cry. That's how important Annabel and Kendall were to me. I really messed up. 

~Annabel's POV~ 

James was right. Where was I to go? I couldn't afford a hotel! I stopped at a bus stop. I was a pretty good difference from the apartment building James and I lived in. I though for a couple minutes. Mrs. Maslow's voice echoed in my head "if you need anything call me" 

So I did. I called Mrs. Maslow.  

"Hello?" She said.  

"Hi it's Annabel. I uhm kind of need a place to stay for a couple days." I said nervously.  

"Oh. Is everything alright honey?" She asked.  

"I guess. James and I got into an argument. I took Kendall and a diaper bag and stormed out." I said.  

"Sure. You can stay here." 

"Thank you Mrs. Maslow." I said.  

She gave me her address and I got on a bus. It was about a half hour ride. Kendall was asleep on my lap. I decided to listen to some music. I pulled out my phone. After a couple songs, my phone constantly started beeping.  

I was getting texts... And a lot if them at that.  

They were all from James.  

"Baby please come back" 

"We can talk about this" 

"I didn't mean it the way I said it" 

"Please honey. I love you to pieces." 

I got a dozen more texts saying the same type of thing.

Chapter 30

~Annabel's POV~
Finally I arrived at Mrs. Maslow's house. 
"Hi honey." She said greeting me at the door. 
"Hi baby." She whispered to the sleeping Kendall. 
"Hi Mrs. Maslow." I said walking in. 
I sat down on her couch. She sat next to me. "You can crash on the couch or in James's room. Your choice."
"Can I sleep in James's room?" I asked. I was starting to miss James but I was still very upset with him. 
"Of course" she said. 
I walked in. It wasn't very decorated but it still smelt like James. 
I put Kendall, who was still asleep, on the bed. 
My phone had stopped buzzing finally. I looked through the messages... All from James. It said things like I'm sorry, I love you, please let's talk. 
But one stuck out. It was a pretty lengthy message. 
It said:
Annabel. Please. Talk to me. I just want to know your safe. I understand you want some space. I regret what I said. I understand you mad but just hear me out. You and Kendall are the most important people in my life. Please call or text me back. I didn't mean what I said. I care about you. 
I read the message over and over. I really should call him... He's worried but I was also still very upset. 
I put my phone down and walked out of James's room. 
"Mrs. Maslow?" I called
"In the kitchen" she replied. "What do you need?"
"Can you call James and tell him I'm okay." I asked. 
"Of course! After I finish my dishes okay?"
"Thank you Mrs. Maslow." I said. 
"Honey please call me Cathy. I've known you since you were a baby." She said. 
I smiled and hugged her. 
"I love you more than I love my mother!"
