When We Collided

Chapter 39

I woke up the next morning, still buzzing from the concert. It was easily the best night of my life. After the concert, we had all been able to go backstage and see Justin. Isabelle had been all flirty, Cecily actually teared up, and Clary was too stunned to say much. I had been laughing that them, but I too was pretty dazed. He then had invited to his concert after party.

The other girls had gone off and talked to other celebrities, while Justin had stayed with me. He asked me if Will and I were dating (again) and that lead me to telling him our entire story. He had looked surprised when I had told him we were friends with benefits, and I had blushed crazily.

Flashback:

"And that's about." I finished finally.

"Well, you two are something." Justin grinned.

I chuckled. "We are. There's something he's hiding from me. Something he hides from everyone, and it's big."

"He'll tell you." He assured me. "When the times right."

I sighed. "I hope so."

End of flashback.

Us girls had left at about 2am. We had all hugged Justin, and he had promised he'd text us soon, he had given his number to the girls too. We all then spent the night at Cecily's. I sat up in my sleeping bag, and they all stirred. We all slowly woke up, and we all grinned crazily at each other.

"That was amazing." Isabelle grinned happily.

"He gave us his number." Clary said dreamily.

I smiled, and blushed. We all then got dressed and brushed our teeth, and walked downstairs. In the kitchen, sat Cecy's parents and Will. We all took our seats, and I was sat across from Will.

"How was the concert, girls?" Linette smiled.

"Amazing! He gave us his number!" Cecily exclaimed.

Linette gasped. "Really?"

"Yeah! I cried." Cecily grinned crazily.

Everyone took their turns telling them about the night.

"What about you, Tessa?" Linette asked.

"Oh, she spent the entire night with Justin." Isabelle smirked at me.

I noticed Will tightened his grip on his fork, and glared at the table.

"Um, yeah." I blushed. "It was really fun."

"Don't even! I saw him kiss your cheek." Clary raised an eyebrow and smirked.

At that, Will stood, and stormed off. His parents watched him, frowning, and I sighed.

"Excuse me." I mumbled.

I got up, and followed Will outside. I closed the door behind me. He was almost at his car.

"Will, stop." I said.

He whipped around to face me, his blue eyes blazing.

"What." He said, coldly.

"What's wrong?" I walked towards him.

"Nothing, Tessa." Will said, annoyed.

I rolled my eyes. "Don't even try with that crap. What is it?"

"Did you kiss him?" Will blurted out suddenly.

"What? Of course not. Why would you ask that?"

"Because he looked like he wanted to fuck you in the bathroom of that restaurant." Will muttered.

I burst out laughing. "Justin Bieber would not want to have sex with a girl like me."

"Why do you say that?" He raised an eyebrow.

"Um, because he could have almost any girl in the world, so why would he want me?"

"Because you're funny, and beautiful, and nice--" Will stopped, as if he didn't mean to say it.

I looked at him surprisedly, and he blushed and looked away from me.

"Why do you that?" I asked softly.

"Do what?" He still didn't look at me.

"Say all those things about me, and then stop right away. Why?" I asked gently.

Will looked at me. "Because I shouldn't say them."

"Why?" I whispered.

"Be--because I'm not good for you, Tessa." He said slowly.

"Why do you think that?"

"I'm just not." Will said. "You should stay away from me."

"And you tell me this now?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Tessa, I've been thinking a lot and--and I think it's best that we end this." He said, not looking me in the eyes.

My entire world stopped. What did he just say? Had I heard wrong? No, the way he was looking at me told me that I hadn't.

"What?" I said, shocked.

"We can't do this, anymore." Will said. "I--I can't be selfish and continue this."

"Why?" I whispered. "Tell me why."

"I can't, Tessa. I can't tell you." He said.

"Will, I--I love you." I found myself saying.

He looked up at me, his blue eyes the brightest I had ever seen them.

"I know, and I--I love you too." Will stuttered.

I froze. He loved me? What? Will loved me? He put his hand on my cheek.

"And it's because I love you, that I have to let you go." His blue eyes searched mine, sadly.

"Tell me why." I whispered, tears falling down my cheeks.

"You wouldn't want me, if you knew. Nobody will." He said. "But that's something I accepted a long time ago."

"Will, don't do this." I said to him.

He looked into my eyes, sadly. "I wish I didn't have to."

He then leaned down, and gently pressed his lips to mine. Will kissed me softly, and I kissed him back. After about thirty seconds, he pulled away from me. Will then looked at me, hardly, and I could see everything we had been through in his eyes. He then got into his car and drove away, and I was left there alone.

Had that really just happened? Had Will just left me? After everything we had been through, he just left. What had he done that was so bad? And he loved me. Will loved him. It didn't even matter now. After about five more minutes, I walked back inside. I numbly, took my seat again. Everyone was looking at me, anxious.

"Where's Will?" Cecily asked quietly.

"He's-he's gone." I stuttered, still not able to feel anything.

Cecily frowned, and everyone including Linette and Edmund, looked at me sadly. I barely even noticed, I was too busy thinking about Will.

Why did he have to leave me?
