Best Friends (A Joe Sugg Fanfiction)

Chapter Seventy

I woke up the next morning aching slightly after last nights events. When I remembered them I couldn't help but smile, I turned to face Joe only to see him awake looking at me half smiling. He looked so adorable (see image). I called Graham to check on Rose and Jack and he said that they were still asleep which made me slightly sad because I wanted to talk to Rose I was missing them terribly. 'What's wrong Em?' Joe asked as he played with my hair.

'I just miss Jack and Rose' I replied sadly. He pulled me into his chest and snuggled me tightly and I instantly felt better. I realized that I was still naked from last night, Joe had boxers on but I was clearly too drunk to get into my pyjamas. I got up and got ready after having a bath. I put on a crop top and some shorts with some white converse, I kept my makeup natural but added a little cat eye. I put my hair in a fishtail plait and put on a floaty cardigan which had a cute red/burgundy pattern on it. I walked back into the room and Joe wasn't there which was very strange. I got out my phone and called him on his phone. 

'This is the o2 voicemail...' I tried again and again but it went straight to voicemail, I guess I would just have to wait for him to get back...

JOE'S POV

Emily was getting a shower so I saw it as the perfect opportunity to sneak off. I quickly got on some black skinny jeans with a plain white top and black vans. I called for an Uber and it arrived. I told the driver where to take me and we arrived shortly after. 

'How can I help you Sir?' The cashier woman said.

'I'm looking for an Engagement ring' I replied grinning. She presented me with a few which were lovely but I wanted an even better one so I asked to see the more expensive ones and she presented me with a beautiful silver ring which had a beautiful diamond in the shape of a square on it. This was the one. I brought the ring and put it in my pocket walking out of the store. I couldn't wait to ask Emily to marry me again. 

I started to walk to the florists which was a few streets away. Suddenly I felt someone grabbing me from behind and pulling me into an alley way. I turned to see Bella, my ex, she had two men either side of her who were clearly body builders because they were really muscly. 'Hello there Joseph' Bella laughed in an evil way. 'Bella? What is all of this?' I asked her you could tell that I was nervous straight away. 'Oh Joe always wanting answers first. Well we have a proposition for you, we could have been happily married but that little slut got in the way of that and my proposition will make both our life's better. I want you to dump that little slut and me and you can finally be happy-'

'No!' I shouted at the top of my lungs.

'We thought you might say that, so we've decided that if you don't then slut face and those two brats you call children will be hurt' Bella replied nastily.

'You don't even know where they are. You're pathetic!' I shouted at her. When I did this one of the men from behind her got out a laptop and flipped open the lid. On the screen was a live video of Emily showing exactly what she was doing right now. 'It's your choice' Bella laughed and I didn't know what to do. I love Emily with all my heart and I can't lose her again but either way I will. At least with one of the options she will stay alive. 'Fine.. I will do it' I said tears forming in my eyes. Bella just laughed before adding, 'oh and I want you to tell her that you never want to see Jack and Rose again. Don't forget, I will be watching' after saying this Bella walked off with these men behind her down the alley.

I arrived back at the hotel room and when I opened the door Emily ran to me and hugged me tightly which made tears fall down my cheeks. I pushed her away from me with a little bit of force to make out like it was serious. 'What's wrong Joe? What is it?' she said tears in her eyes. I couldn't look her in the eye because I couldn't bare to see the sadness behind her eyes. 'It's not working Em. I thought I could love you but I just can't you are vile and ugly and your personality is... even worse. I should have never left Bella for you. I don't want to see Jack or Rose again and I certainly never want to see you again.Goodbye Emily for good this time' I turned away quickly and walked out the door, when I shut the door I fell to the floor and cried. Before hearing Emily smashing plates in the hotel room and screaming as she cried...

EMILY'S POV

'I don't want to see Jack or Rose again and I certainly never want to see you again.' these words kept on going around and around in my head, I picked up a plate and chucked it at the wall and started to scream 'no! Please no! I can't lose him again!' I don't know who I was screaming this to but I didn't care. I sank to the floor and cried until I had a headache and my eyes were sore. 'I loved him' I cried more calmly this time but still really upset. It was so out of the blue I thought things were going okay up until today.

I got my things together and left the hotel room paying the bill and for the damage I caused. I got into a taxi to the train station and got the train back to bath to pick up Jack and Rose. When I arrived at Graham's house he could tell that something wasn't right probably because of the red blotches on my face from the tears. I didn't say one word to him because I didn't know what I could say to him. 

I picked up Jack and snuggled him tightly while Rose got the last of her belongings. 'Say goodbye to Granddad..' I said my voice as shaky as ever. I knew that Rose and Jack were never going to see there Granddad again and that broke me a little more inside. We then got the train back to Brighton and arrived at my house. When I walked in Joe was standing in the living room with his belongings. I took Jack upstairs and told Rose to go and play. I walked back into the living room where Joe was standing.

'Em I'm sorry' he said softly as though he hadn't said the nasty things that he had said.

'You don't get the right to say sorry. You don't get the right!' I shouted the last bit. 'Just get your stuff and get out!' I screamed at him. 'I hate you!' I screamed but then I broke and started to cry. He picked up his belongings and left while I was stood there frozen on the spot crying.
