My Heart

My Heart Chp. 19

*Ella’s POV*

“REX! YOU MORON!”

“I’m not a moron,” Rex mumbled softly from the couch across from me.

“Oh, really?” I put my hands on my hips and huffed in annoyance.

“Didn’t I tell you to talk to Shay?”

“Yeah, you did. Right before you drove off.”

“Garrrr.” I threw my head into my hands and exhaled sharply.

“You. Are a moron.” I gushed angrily.

“So.” I rolled my eyes and shook my head in annoyance.

“It’s not even my problem. It’s YOUR relationship. YOU deal with it. You people bug me.” Jeremey snickered in amusement from beside me. I send him a cross look and he shut up immediately.

“Fine. Thanks for the help El.” I nodded irritably and sighed. People can be so frustrating sometimes. You try to help them and they just act like….like a bunch a douche whoppers! I peeked out from in between my fingers to see Rex standing gruffly from his set. He straightened his jacket and headed toward the exit of the room. About six inches from the exit, he paused and turned.

“Look Ella. I know that you’re just trying to help... And I-I appreciate that but this, this is between me and Shay. And Dustin.” His tone became slightly hard, before returning to his previous sensitive one. “Thanks you. I’m sorry for being such an ass, but I just Gahhh I’m not sure what to do okay? I’m sorry.” My eyes widened. The great Rex just apologized to me?

“I can die happy. You’ve apologized!” I pulled a hand dramatically to my forehead and fell back into Jeremey.

“ELLA!!” Rex whined, stomping his feet like a two year old. “You’re not helping!” I held back fits of laughter and raised my hands in defeat.

“Sorry, sorry.” Rex nodded, while laughing softly, and waved good bye, shutting the door behind him with a rough thud. I sighed and glanced up to see Jeremey staring down at me.

“What? Is there something on my face?” I swiped at my face quickly and watched him laugh, rolling his eyes at me.

“No. I just love you that’s all.”

“Oh.” I nodded softly and looked down.

“Oh? No, OH JEREMEY! I LOVE YOU TOO! TEE HEE!” Jeremey squealed dramatically like a teenage teeny bobber.

“Oh my word.  You’ve gone insane.” I whispered, faking fear. “Whatever shall we do?” Jeremey grabbed my hips, pulling me onto his lap, and kissed my jaw sweetly. 

“Thy kiss is the only thing that shall heal thy wounds!” Jeremey mumbled seductively against my neck.

“Oh is it now?” I asked innocently.

“Mhmm,” Jeremey nodded against my skin.

“Well then I suppose I should give you a kiss then shouldn’t I?” I whispered playfully. Jeremey waggled his head eagerly.

“Alright then,” I mumbled moving in to meet his lips. The kiss was sweet and overwhelming. Like every time we kissed. Each time we kissed, it was like our first kiss all over again. The sweet passion flooding through both of us. The eagerness as we playfully nibbled at each other. Jeremey backed us up against the couch, so we were laying down, me straddling him. We prayed at one another’s mouths as passion and heat swarmed between us. Finally when my head was about to burst, I pulled away smiling warmly at Jeremey. My lungs burned, due to lack of oxygen, and my head was clouded with lust. Jeremey’s eyes echoed my thoughts and I pecked his lips softly once more.

“I should go insane more often.” He mumbled through our lips, causing me to giggle softly.

*Rex’s POV*

I sat numbly in my car, in Shay’s drive way, debating. Debating whether or not I should take El’s advice.  Debating if I should talk to Shay. And debating if I should just drive away. I shook my head in haste and threw open my car door. Despite the pouring rain, and crisp air, I quickly made my to the front door. After a hesitant breath, I knocked. After a few moments the door opened slowly and Shay appeared. Her face was red and splotched. Her eyes were red and swollen. Her long, hair was matted to her face and she had black circles forming under her eyes. I felt a twinge of guilt deep in my gut.  She stepped forward and I twitched away. My action brought tears to her eyes and I glanced away in shame.  

“Rex. What happened with Dustin, I’m so, so sorry. I don’t know what really happened. I-I just.” She looked down and ran her hand softly across her eyes.”

“Do you love him?” It was the question that had been eating away at my insides. It was the reason I hadn’t wanted to talk to her. It wasn’t that I was cruel, or stubborn. I was terrified. I was so, so scared to hear her answer.  She whipped her head up at me and stared into my eyes in confusion.

“No!” she shook her head with a furious shake. “No.”  I took a quarter step toward her. My heart pleading to put this all behind us.   

“Then why were you about to kiss him?” She shrugged and shook her head.

“I don’t know, Rex,” She held her head in her hands and sighed. “I think about it and I’m disgusted with myself. I’m so, sorry.” I smiled halfheartedly.

“I forgive you Shay, but it doesn’t change anything.” I whispered softly tucking lose strands of hair behind her ear. Shay nodded weakly.

“I completely understand. I love you. I’m sorry.” I nodded hastily and watched as she crept back into her house, shutting the door with a thud behind her. I ran a hand through my hair and sighed, leaning back against the wooden frame of the door. What did I just do? You just broke up with the girl of your dreams, moron.
