"I'm not in love with Jessa." I couldn't stress that enough apparently. "She's such a know-it-all and is annoying with her intelligence."

"Okay so why is it so hard for you and Telly to get together if you 'aren't in love' with this Jessa chick?"

"Because I love the way she makes me feel."

So now the truth is finally told after a whole summer has gone by. There was no way I could say this to either Telly or Jessa. I couldn't even confess it to myself until it just came out. So for the past few weeks, I couldn't even answer this question no matter how many ways you asked me. So I wasn't really prepared for when my answer came out and I awkwardly coughed even though Louis heard it. Hell, Michael Jackson probably heard it. "You, you like the way she makes you feel?"

"Not in that way, well that way too. The girl has a talent, she sent me to paradise." I moaned and blushed at the memory.

"Ew. I don't need details."

"Oh that's right I forgot you're a wee little vlut."

"It sounds like to me this Jessa chick is a sirgin and you are clearly using her or you are using both her and Telly."

"I'm not using anyone!"

"Am I crazy, or did I just hear you say that you like the way she makes you feel?"

"You didn't let me explain. I meant I like the way her mind works it's so intriguing. She makes me think about things before answering and she makes me think about Telly."

"Wow, so you are using one of them for something."

"Louis, I need to get to Manhattan." I got straight to the point since there was no sense in wasting time telling him insignificant details I guess. I shook my head and hoped that he would know how to help me. "I kinda sent Telly away and I just-" Just what? That's a question that she would ask me but provide the answer anyway.

Why did I want to go to Manhattan. Its not like Telly would want to see me after all of this. I was just dumb and I'm hopelessly in love and I just have to follow her to New York. It was an obvious mistake to stay here in Seattle and I have to see her to try and make everything better. "I just have to apologize."

"What did you do now?"

"I just keep making the same mistakes Louis. Everytime I see her my brain goes all stupid and I can't take it anymore. I can't eat, I can't sleep. She's always on my mind and I don't want that. I want her on my dick."

"Wow, like I didn't know that." I could hear his eye roll laced within his words.

"Louis, please just help me. I have no one else and I don't know what to do, I'm going crazy. She roasted me in the most polite way today and all she said was the truth."

"Damn. That means that you fucked up real bad if all she had to do was make a statement."

"I told her that I love her for like the thousandth time today and she thinks it's all bullshit."
