Lonely

Chapter 4:Rejection Isn't easy

Jasmines POV

I ran into the janitors closet. Im surprised it isn't locked.I can't believe he would tell Peyton that. I tried my hardest to hide it, and to my understanding I was doing a good job.

Christian thinks just because he's cute and is six-foot-five inches that he can boss anyone around.

He totally embarrassed me in front of my best friend...like seriously dude.

Then he just shrugged it off like was he just said was not important.

I wonder what Peyton's thinking right now. Somewhere along the lines of 'I should just dump Jasmine for liking me like that knowing I'm gay'. I so don't want to lose my best friend.

I really hope this doesn't jeopardize my relationship with Peyton.

A sudden slap knocked me out of my thoughts.

I turned to see Peyton standing next to me. I tried to run away but he grasped my wrist. "Jasmine will you just listen to me please" he said. "Ok ill listen" "Look I'm not mad at you, I'm just a little shocked, that's all." "Yea but sooner or later your going to be mad at me."" No I won't trust me" "ok" Now why didn't you tell me about your crush on me"

"I thought you would drop out whole friendship."

"Jasmine I've known you for 13 years now, why would I do that."

"So that you wouldn't have to face me everyday and feel uncomfortable around me."

"Jasmine I could never feel uncomfortable around you, as long as you don't try something with me it's fine,hun"

This is why I like Peyton. He's so forgiving. Doesn't take things too seriously.

Christians POV

I didn't mean to embarrass Jasmine, it's just that I like Peyton and I didn't want her to have him.

Surprise surprise mr.jock doesn't know how to express his feelings. So what. I'm afraid of Rejection.

Peyton's POV

The next thing I said to jasmine shocked her. " Jasmine I'm gay so we can't be together...I hope you understand." The look on Jasmines face was a mix between shock and understanding. "I understand Peyton, it's ok. I knew it wouldn't work that's why I didn't tell you.

Even though Jasmine said that I still saw the emotion of sadness in her eyes. I could see she was trying her best to hide it though.
