Starting Over Part 4

Updating again! Heh

//YN\\

"You what" I hear, I pick my head up to see Trey looking at both of us.

"Trey! I missed you." I say, hoping I'd changed the subject I walk to him and wrap my arms around his neck hugging him tightly and he wraps his arms around my waist and picks me up off the floor some and I squeal

He sets me down and I smile at him and turn around walking down the stairs. I hear him and Cameron following behind me.

"You can't get out of this one. What do you mean you left him" Cameron says and I sigh continuing down the stairs

"Who left who?" Hope says with a tray of cookies in her hands, I hum and grab a cookie and take a bite out of it jumping off the last step.

"YN left Justin" Trey says and I hear a loud noise, I jump and turn around to see the tray of cookies Hope was holding in her hands on the floor, her mouth was opened and she brought her hand to her mouth.

"Oh my god. Oh my god. I thought you two would be together forever. What if all marriages end. Oh my god we're gonna end Trey." She says, her voice getting high as she began to cry.

"No no no no" I say and start walking over to her and she runs the other way. I stop in front of Trey and Cameron and they look at me blinking. "Well. Aren't you going to go to her?" I say and Trey snorts

"She never listens to me. Besides her best friend is here. You'd do more justice than me." He says and starts pushing me to the direction Hope ran in.

"You got this. Baby girl." Cameron says and I eye him as he smacks my butt gently, they laugh and turn around walking into the living room and I sigh. I walk into the room she went in and she was crying while looking out the window.

"Hope?" I say and her head turns to me, her mascara was running down her face, her nose red as she sniffled and wiped her nose.

"I'm fine" she says and wipes her nose again. I close the door behind me and walk over to her sitting in the little couch bench next to the window.

"No you're not." I say and she sniffles hard to breathe and I look at her

"I just. You and Justin. You two were perfect for each other, I looked at you two. And I saw love. True love. I saw you two growing old together and arguing over who farted." She says and I laugh lightly at the thought of it. "You and Justin are perfect for each other. And then. And people say me and Trey are perfect for each other and after hearing that you left him. Well. It kinda felt like even if two people are perfect for each other. Sometimes it just doesn't work out. And I don't want that to happen with me and Trey." She says and I grab her hand holding it tightly

"It's not. You and Trey have been together for ages. You two will grow old together. For you and Trey. It's forever." I say and she looks at me

"You and Justin are supposed to be forever too." She says and I look down at my legs, sadness filling me up.

"Yeah." I say and she places her other hand on top of mine and holds it.

"What happened between you two?" She asks and I look up at her, filling my eyes sting, but I cant cry, I don't want to cry. I cried for three days at Zak's place, I don't want to do it again.

"He. He uhm. He cheated on me." I say slowly and then I look back down at my legs.

"He what?!" She says and I nod my head "But. But why?" She asks again and I lick my lips looking back at her and use my free hand to move strands of hair behind my ear.

"We were at the park and there was this guy, he was flirting with me and grabbing me and he didn't see the part of me pushing him away, just the part of him grabbing me and. He got upset, thought I would cheat on him. So he left, got drunk, next day he came home. Then he told me." I say and breathe in and out slowly to stop the tears from coming

Hope is my best friend, but I never thought of telling her, I didn't want to tell anyone. Only people who knew were me, Chris and Eve. And of course Justin. We didn't want to tell anyone. It wasn't necessary to tell other people. It was our business.

"Trey did the same thing once." She says and I look up at her and she nods her head. "He saw a guy talking with me at a party, he got jealous, and then he went off with another girl. He told me about it the next day. I actually dumped him. But. But I couldn't leave him. I loved him. So I got back with him." She says and I look at her

"Why would you get back with him?" I ask and she smiles lightly touching the ring on her finger.

"Because I loved him. And I couldn't live without him. He meant everything to me. I was in love with him, you can't just throw away the love of your life. I knew inside of me that he was the love of my life, and I looked at him, and I felt so happy. So lucky. Lucky that he was mine. And I was his. I would look at him, as if he was my world. The only thing keeping my feet on the ground. The only thing from keeping me to lose my mind. I loved him. And I still do" she says smiling down.

"How did you know he wouldn't cheat on you again? How did you trust him after that?" I ask her and she looks up at me, holding onto my hands tighter.

"Because he did everything he could possibly do to get me back. He sent me flowers. Presents. Tried taking me out on dates. I said no each time, and I sent the flowers and gifts back to him. But then he came to my door, and got on his knees and begged me to take him back. He was crying, he looked horrible. He told me so many things, that he loved me, that I was his everything. That-" she starts but she gets interrupted

"That I would just about die if I didn't have you in my life." Trey says and we turn to see him standing at the door, his arms over his chest. "And I would've. Those couple of months were the worst days of my life. I was a prick, but then you came into the picture." He says and she smiles and I smile too. "You changed my life, and I want you to be my wife. Don't be the death of me, be what gives me life. Make me happy, get me mad, all I need is you. Make me smile, make me laugh, don't release me from my life" he starts singing and walks to Hope getting on his knees, she starts giggling as he smiles up at her

She leans over to kiss him and I smile at them. Once they pull apart Hope grabs his face in her hands and mouths 'I love you' and he mouths 'I love you' right back

I smile at them, they have so much love between them. Almost as much as me and Justin had. They look at each other the way I look at Justin and the way he looks at me. They're happy together. Completely happy.

"Oh. And YN. I trusted him after that because I saw the look on his face. The sadness in his eyes, the way he looked at me. I looked at him, and I knew he meant every word he said. I knew I could trust him by the way I felt looking at him on his knees. When it comes to love, you're supposed to think with your heart more than your head. You feel it inside of you. All you have to do, is not think about what he did once, but what he's done for you. And once you've done that. Your heart will know." She says she stands up and kisses me on my head, Trey stands up right after and they walk hand in hand leaving me there.

I don't know what I'm supposed to do. Everything Hope said got to me, made me think. But I also don't know if it's the right thing to do. My kids aren't happy without him, and I'm not happy with him.

At least not now.

Ayyeeee one more chapter for today! If you'd like to tell me what you think should happen then go ahead and tell me.

My Christmas break has begun and I'm so happy. I'll try to continue to update I promise.
