Chapter 19: Cant Be Friends

Chapter 19 Can’t Be Friends

Song: Can’t Be Friends by Trey Songz

Jalena’s pov

Look what this girl done did to me.

She done cut me off from a good, good love.

She told me that those days were gone

Now I’m sitting here going half crazy

‘Cause I know she still thinks about me too,

And there ain’t no way in hell, that I can be just friends with you

‘And I wish we never did it

And I wish we never loved it

And I wish I never fell so deep in love with you and now ain’t no way we can be friends.’

With the music playing softly I thought I would be able to fall asleep in no time, but looking at the clock that read 2:30 in the morning I knew sleep was not coming. Getting up after tossing and turning I went to head downstairs.

Earlier I had heard my mom and dad come home loud as you please, they don’t do well drinking. I could hear them laughing and knocking things over trying to make it up to their room. I’m pretty sure one of them fell down the stairs, hearing a thumpity-thump- thump had me questioning their sanity, so I knew as I went to peek in on them now they would both be knocked out cold.  Walking into their room I covered my hand over my mouth trying hard not to laugh after getting a good look at them. Dad was still in his clothes, hanging half way off the bed, and snoring loudly. My mom, poor thing looked like she tried. She had at least gotten an arm through her pajamas shirt but the sad thing is she still had on the blouse she wore today. When it came down to the rest she had one leg still stuck in her stocking with one high heel left on. She must have past out soon after dad. Closing the door I went to Bree’s room she was still not home. That girl has some serious explaining to do. Feeling lonely all of sudden I went downstairs to get myself a bottle of water. I was still feeling heavy hearted as I walked back up the stairs. I went back into my room closing the door behind me I leaned against it I closing my eyes. My mind started thinking about all that happen. I still couldn’t believe what a fool I made of myself.  Even with that realization my heart cried out for the guy down the street. “Why Justin, why did you do this to me? Why did you make me feel this way?” I said talking to myself

“How can I fix this?” I opened my eyes with a scream in my throat. I dropped my water bottle on the floor. Shit I could have used it to throw it at him. Watching Criminal Minds shows with Krista got me scared shitless, and freaked out about intruders. Shit! I was about ready to scream. He was in front of me before I could let it out. It was Justin. He put his hands in my hair pressing his forehead to mine I was frozen with shock. “Its me, Justin…I’m so fucking sorry baby.” He said his voice filled with heavy emotion. I couldn’t believe he was here in my room. Thank god my parents were past out in their room. Still I wondered what the heck he was doing here. He made it damn clear he didn’t want me.

“How in the hell did you get in here,” I breathed out in between a sob and an almost yell. I had so many emotions going on inside me. I wanted him here and I wanted to kick his ass out.

“The window,” he said. His breath was minty on my face his voice a gentle whisper. I had forgotten that I opened it. We were still standing forehead to forehead. I took a step to the side. I needed distance from him so I could think. He drooped his hands clenching his fists.
