2B (Bruno Mars fanfic)

Chapter 4

 

I was working 9 to 5 and on weekends. If I didn't have some extra job that I needed to finish at home, I would help Ana in the bar. Extra cash didn't kill anyone and I really needed every single dollar because I was saving money for a car.

Jake and I’s relationship was good if you ask me. As time went by I loved him more and more, although we have not seen each other so much as before.

 

I was so happy that I had this great job. Even if I  had to stay at work late many days because we had this big project and my boss Alicia needed all my help.

One day I had to stay late again and I was scared of what Jake would say because this was his day off and he had plans for us. I pick up my phone I started dialing his number...

"Jake?" I said softly after he pick up.

"Where are you babe? Its 6.30 pm. You already needed to be home."

"I know, I´m sorry but Alicia..." Before I finished what I wanted to say he cut me off.

"I don't want to hear it." He said and I could hear the anger in his voice.

"I know babe.. I know.. but  you know how much this project means to me and how bad I wanted this job. This was my dream. Please understand that."

"Can you please understand that I miss my girlfriend?" He was even angrier.

"I understand that and I will make it up to you every moment that we didn't spent together because of this... but please don't make big deal out of this now, please..."

"I will make it a big deal because I have every right to do that... You... You don't know anything..."

"I don't know what?" I said little bit confused. "Jake tell me.. talk to me babe... babe?" He was quiet  and all I can hear is his heavy breathing.

"Don't expect for me to be home when you get here." He finally spoke up.

"Come on Jake, don't be like that. I´m really sor..." Before I said sorry he hung up on me.

Arrrrrgh. I was mad and confused at the same time but I didn't have time to worry about that now because I had so much work to do. I get home after 9 pm tired as hell. More than 12 hours in heels is crazy, I think that my feet  are bleeding by now. I took off my heels with such a relief and turn the lights on.

"Fuck... fuck.. fuck...I am so stupid.. FUCK!" I talked with myself when I saw cold dinner at the table, fresh orchids (because that was my favorite flowers), burned candles, and a red velvet box with bow on it. I slowly opened the box and saw a beautiful white gold necklace with a heart shaped pendant. I sat on the couch with the box still in my hands and began to cry. How can I be so stupid and forget our first anniversary? I never t forget any important date, I was a girl. These things were important to me. He is a guy, he needs to forget something like this, not me. That's why he was so mad and hung up on me. That was first time that he did that, now I get why. It was all my fault. I wiped my tears and took the phone to call him, but everytime I dialed his number my my call was forwarded to voicemail. He was mad... really mad... but like he said he has every right to be mad. I would be angry as hell if situation was reversed. I'll let him calm down and tomorrow is Saturday and I do not have to work because we almost  finished everything today so I'm gonna surprise him tomorrow with breakfast in bed and I hope make up sex.

I took a long shower, put my pajamas on and went into the kitchen to clean up before Ana sees this. I feel bad already but I know that I will feel even more bad when she hears the stupid thing I did. While I thought about it, I heard keys in the door...

"Jake?" I went towards the door and saw Ana.

"Its just me." She said.

"What are you doing home this early on a Friday night?"

"And why are your eyes so red? And why is Jake at the bar drunk as hell?" She said with a what-the-hell-is going-on-with-you-two look in her eyes.

"He didn't tell you?"

"No, he didn't want to talk to anyone. He just told me to ask you. What the hell is going on Dani?"

"I fucked up." I cried and tears again started to roll down on my cheeks. Ana put one hand over my shoulders and with the other she slightly rubbed my hand and lead me towards the couch.

"What did you do sweetie?"

"You know how he felt about my extra work for the past few weeks? And today I had to stay late again because our project is near the end, and I called him to tell him that, and hung up on me."

"Yes I know but I don't understand why he over reacted that way."

"Because today is our first anniversary and I totally forgot about that!" I said and started crying even more.

"Oh sweetie." She said and pull me into a tighter  hug.

"I love him, I really do..."

"I know sweetie, I know."

"I rejected him so many times in the beginning, but later I started to like him more and more... and now when I love him so much I don't want to lose him.  Do you think he will do something stupid?"

"I dont think so sweetie, Jake is good guy, but now, he’s hurting. We girls.. we cry and talk when something is wrong, but guys.. they drink. Let him to calm down and you will talk to him tomorrow. OK?"

"Yeah, I was thinking the same thing."

"Now stop crying and go get some rest!"

"But I need to clean this."

"I will take care of that. You go to sleep and you will feel much better in the morning.".

"I dont know what I would do without you."

"I love you too, good night." She said and gave me a wink.
