Fools Fall In Love

Chapter 5 (No Justin POV)

Ariana's POV

So as you guys know, I kissed Justin last night. Yes, it was stupid of me. I don't know what I was thinking. Well it's a new day, hopefully Justin and I can just go back to normal and brush this off our shoulders. But I'm still wondering why I kissed him. I never thought I liked him that way. I mean, sure he's got great hair and he's cute, but I'm in love with Jai. I just can't figure it out. Here Jai and I were, laying in bed next to each other, cuddling as usual. I haven't made eye contact with him since the incident. How am I supposed to keep this to myself? Jai deserves to know. I just don't know how to tell him, without hurting him.

 "Goodmorning, beautiful." he said with the biggest grin on his face. "Goodmorning, sunshine." I responded. "How was rehearsel yesterday?" he asked. I'm just stuck in a daze, thinking about what his reaction could be once I tell him. "It was, uh, great! We had a lot of fun." I said. In my head, I was really thinking "Why can't I tell him the truth?" It was haunting me, like a bunch of demons in a house haunting a family. I couldn't run away from this.

 "Jai, I need to talk to you." I said. "I don't like the sound of that.." he said, sighing. "We didn't just have fun at the rehearsel, something else happened." I mummbled under my breath. "Ariana, did he fucking hurt you?! Physically!?" he yelled. "No Jai! It's nothing like that. He's not like that." I said, surprised at his response. Justin would never, EVER hurt me. "There's something that happened last night, that I really don't know how to tell you, so I'm just gonna say it." I said. He just stared at me. I could see the tears starting up in his big brown eyes. "I, I, I kissed him last night.." I said. His mouth dropped and he stood up, pacing back and forth, from the table to the kitchen. "Why?.." he said softly, trying to not let the tears take over. "I, I don't know. Jai, it didn't mean anything. I - I didn't feel anything." I said, trying to convince myself that what I was saying was true. "I just..I need to think, Ariana. See you later." and just like that he left.

*Phone rings* I look down and it's Justin. I ignore the call, because I'm not in the mood to talk to anyone now. My phone rings again. He keeps calling me. "Hello." I said, being hostile. "Did I do something? Do you not wanna talk to me?" he said. "Me and Jai got in a fight, so I don't wanna talk to anyone." I said. I'm trying to just get him to stop, and just hang up. "Ariana, meet me at the coffee shop now. We need to talk about last night. Please?" he pleaded. "Fine, i'll be there." I said. I hung up the phone. I really didn't want to face Justin after what happened.

I got to the coffee shop and there he was, looking great as ever, drinking coffee. He sees me and smiles. He waves his hand, giving me the signal to come in and sit with him. Of course, I walk in, get some coffee and join him. "Hi" I said. "Hey there." he said back smiling. "About last night, am I the only one who felt something there?" he said, looking in my eyes. I started to tear up as I was going to explain my feelings. "Justin, I felt a spark last night. I mean, when we kissed, it's like Jai completely exited my mind. All I could think about was you and us." I said. "But I told Jai that I kissed you last night, and he said he needed to think, so I really don't know what's gonna happen." I continued. "Ari, I do have feelings for you. I have since you came in my life. I wanted to tell you, but I didn't wanna ruin your relationship." he said back. "I'm sorry Jai has to think about things, and I'm sorry about the kiss, I regret it all." he said. "I don't. I don't regret kissing you. Maybe it was a sign for me. I think I might have feelings for you too." I said.
