Descending, Sequel to Lady Bug // Peyton Meyer

0.5

I walked to the kitchen to see Sheryl. She looked at me sadly before coming over and placing her hands on my cheeks.

"Oh honey I'm sorry" she said and I faked a confused look.

"About what, I do not like Peyton anymore" I said and she rolled her eyes.

"Whatever you say but I know your hurting so once everyone goes to sleep you and me can watch sappy 80s movies all night and I bought a gigantic tub of cookie dough ice cream. Ruthie can even join us" she said and I smiled and nodded. I went to help Sheryl set up all the food when the blonde walked in.

"Oh you must be Janette. I'm Katherine" she smiled politely and I smiled back shaking her hand.

"I heard you and Peyton used to be on Girl Meets World together. That is so cool. It's such a small world" she said and I chuckled nervously.

"You wouldn't believe" I said.

"Well I'm so glad I will be getting to know you better and I cannot wait for your movie! I see the commercials on TV all the time and it looks great" she compliments and I grimace at how I can find no reason to hate her other then the fact she is with the boy I love. My phone rings and Gabe's name appears on the screen again. I mentally groan at his clinginess.

"Hello" I answered already not feeling up to this conversation.

"Hey babe it's later" he immediately said and I rolled my eyes at the last call only being 10 minutes ago.

"Babe I'm still busy" I said and he sighed.

"I know I just really miss you" he said and I slowly dropped my eyes.

"I miss you to but I gotta go" I said.

"Okay bye lov-" I quickly hung up not wanting to say it again when I truly don't. Sheryl raised her eyebrows at me and I broke down crying right in front of Katherine.

"H-he loves me, b-but I don't-don't love him back" I said walking towards her and she wrapped me into her arms.

"I can't loose him though, he has always been there for me. Even when we were little. I can't break his heart" I sobbed to her and I felt Katherine's hand on my back.

"Now I'm no love expert but if he has always been there for you, once you tell him exactly what you just said he should stay and if he doesn't then he was never there for you in the first place" her voice said and I sighed at how much more perfect she got by the second.

"I know letting people go is hard but sometimes you have to" she said lightly while patting my back a little bit.

"You wouldn't believe how hard" I said running back to my room. I accidentally ran into Peyton but I just pushed past and slammed my door shut before leaning my back against it and sliding down. I brought my knees to my chest and sobbed harder.

I'm such a horrible person. Why would I let myself get this far in a relationship when I don't even share the same feelings. I am the most horrible person on earth.

"Janette!!" Peyton and Ruthie banged on my door but I didn't move.

"Please let us in" they asked.

"No" I replied and they banged harder. The banging stopped and then I heard some whispering.

"JJ it's Peyton let me in, Ruthie is gone" his sweet voice came through and I breathed in most my sobs before opening the door quickly and pulling him in before slamming it shut and locking it again.

"I'm the most horrible person" I said banging my head on the door and he grabbed my shoulders pulling me back to face him.

"You are not, what would make you think that" he asked brushing loose strands of hair out of my face.

"Gabe loves me but I don't love him, I don't even share any of the same feelings towards him" I said and he drew his eyebrows together in confusion.

"But you just said it" he said and I cried harder.

"Because he said it for the first time and how could I not say it back we have been together for 8 months" I sobbed and he let go of my shoulders and I fell into his chest immediately wrapping my arms around his torso.

"Sorry to say beautiful, but if you don't love him you don't say it" he said brushing his hands through my hair.

"That's why I'm horrible, what do I do?" I asked and he let out a loud sigh.

"I don't know but keep your head held high because I don't want your tiara falling princess" he said making me look up at his emerald eyes.

"I'm no princess" I said lightly shaking my head.

"I know cause your my queen" he kissed my forehead and my heart fluttered but I immediately stopped knowing this was only friendly and he has a girlfriend.

"Thank you Pey, your the best" I said and he nodded before picking me up and throwing me on my bed. I laughed out loud then he tickled my sides so I busted out laughing some more.

"Okay, okay, stop go get some lunch I'm just gonna stay in here a little longer" I said running my hands through his blonde hair and he smiled before kissing my forehead once more.

"Stay safe beautiful" he said before getting up and walking out. It sounded so much better hearing him say it again instead of Gabe.

"You too handsome" I replied but he couldn't hear me.
