Just Friends - Book Two in the As Love As You Love Me Series

chapter thirteen

13.

Dylan’s POV;

I was sitting at the kitchen table, with the only light coming from the stove. I watched at the cookies I was making baked as I twirled Justin’s truck keys around in circles on the table. Ryan came downstairs and flicked on the light, making me flinch. “Turn them back off.”

“What’s gotten into you? I thought you were all happy because you were ready to confess your dying affection for Justin?” he laughed, opening up the fridge, grabbing two pepsis. He slid one to me and I popped the can open, chugging it down to the last drop.

“I went to see him. I went to the fields to tell him that I picked him and there he was…with Camille.”

“Oh shit.” Ryan said, almost spitting all his pepsi out.

I smirked and said, “Yeah, just my luck right?”

“There has got to be some kind of explanation.”

“I was late so he thought I chose Vince…so I stole his truck.” I mumbled, holding up the keys. As if on cue the doorbell rang. Ryan stood up to answer it. I heard a few words and shouting but a few seconds later there was Justin in the kitchen doorway.

“I can kick him out.” Ryan said, coming up behind him.

“No, it’s fine.” I mumbled.

“I’ll be upstairs if you need me.” Ryan mumbled, right before disappearing up the steps.

“You stole my truck.” Justin said, sitting across from me.

I slid his keys to him. “Where are mine?”

“I left them on the stand by the door.”

“Okay.”

“Dylan, you’ve got to hear me out…it was a mistake.”

“I know it was.”

“So you forgive me?”

“No. I know not to trust you.”

“Oh come on.” He groaned.

“No.”

“That’s not fair, you used me.”

“No I didn’t!” I yelled.

“Yes, you did. That night you said you wanted me to take your virginity and then after that you let me wake up in the study alone.”

“What did you want me to do? Stay in bed with you? Isnt that suspicious to you?”

“I don’t care!” He slammed his hands down on the table. “I love you Dylan, fuck yes I know I have a shit way of showing it but you love that I don’t smother you, or baby you about any and everything. You love that I play hard to get with you even though you know you have me. I don’t know what else I can do. You wanted me to sit around and wait for you when you weren’t even single. You were playing with my feelings and you knew it. You couldn’t have us both, you knew that.”

“Damn it, yes I know!” I yelled, standing up and going for the steps. Justin was quick though, he grabbed my arm and pulled me back. “Let go.”

“Tell me you chose me Dylan.” He whispered, trailing his nose against my collarbone. “I just need to hear it.”

“I don’t want you anymore.” I whispered.

“I love when you play hard to get so much.” He chuckled, wrapping his arm around my waist. “It’s so hot.”

“I’m not playing, I’m being serious.”

“Can I kiss you?”

“No.” I mumbled.

“Huh?” he asked, leaving small pecks against my neck.

Justin knew how to play my body all too well. “I said-I said no.” He started leaving wet kisses against my jaw line, making my breath hitch and my body started to grow weak. “Justin, stop.”

“I don’t want to.”

“Yeah, well you have to.” 

“Don’t make me stop.” He whispered. “Tell me you don’t want me to stop.”

 Justin’s POV;

I felt her body grow hot in my arms. She was fighting me so hard, and I knew what I was doing was sort of wrong, but what can I say? I’m desperate. I don’t want her to leave me. I made a mistake, a terrible one I know, but I don’t want to lose her. I can’t lose her, not with her so close to finally being mine. I was trying to erase her mind, cloud her head up and just make her accept me. By tomorrow I wanted to be able to walk down the hallways with her holding my hand, being able to walk her to class. I leaned up, and noticed her eyes were half lidded, the look in her eyes was more than likely mimicking mine. I wanted her. Bad. I leaned down closer to her soft lips…I couldn’t wait to kiss them again. “I want to kiss you.” I whispered. “Can I?”

Thoughts were running through her mind, I could see it in her eyes. It seemed like an eternity before she slowly nodded her head, and I crashed my lips to hers. The moan from the back of her throat set me on over drive as I picked her up and carried her to her room.

I finally got her.

Vince’s POV;

I looked up at the ceiling of my room thinking about everything that happened in the past few months. Me finally getting Dylan, and then all the drama that came with her. I realized that even though I was always optimistic, I was never truly happy with her. It was always a competition with Justin, and lets face it I knew that in the long run I wasn’t going to be the one to win. I didn’t hate Dylan, but I didn’t want to be her friend either. The fact that I stayed with her and put up with all her bullshit just for her to leave me appalled me. I should’ve been smarter. I should’ve known that I could’ve done better. I’m going to do better.

And the only way to do that is to go back to my old ways.

Hello Mr. Player.

[A/N] 

if you're wondering if the story will go on for much longer the answer is no. there's like 2 or 3 more chapters left till the end of the as long as you love me series. 

if you're wondering about vince, well i'm thinking about creating a little spin off story so that way he can find love, which will be a summer based story. so depending on how many people think a vince spin off is good, determines on whether or not i will create one. 

ON ANOTHER NOTE: 

the harry styles fan fic will be coming soon, and once i finish just friends, i will pick back up with witness protection program....maybe. i'm seriously debating on whether i want to delete that story or not. 

i also wanted to thank you all for sticking with me, i love you guys so much, and thanks for showing this series as much love as you did. i didnt think as long as you love me would be a success but you guys made it one of my most treasured books, along with dangerous game. i love you guys a lot.
