Instincts ♡ ( A Dave Franco fanfic)

 Chapter 1- Introduction

 Nobody really knows about this. My secret, I mean. I feel horribly guilty for it but there's nothing I can really do, I can't help the way I feel. The only person who knows is my best friend Melanie. Out of all the girls who have been obsessing over James Franco all through High School I was the one he chose to ask out. I'm flattered and all, and I love him, i think.. but, there's someone else I have my eye on. And to make matters worse, it's his younger brother. 

I have been dating James for a year now, he's a Senior and i'm a Junior, and he's everything I could ask for in a boyfriend, he's handsome, funny, romantic, just everything.  But every time he invites me over I find myself seeking for Dave and wishing it was him instead.

Ugh, Dave, where do I begin.  His crooked half-smile melts my soul everytime I look at it, and something in his eyes just sends shivers down my spine. His raspy laugh is so adorable I want to cry and everything about him to me is just perfect. I hate myself for all of this.

For being a shit girlfriend, and for falling in love with my boyfriend's younger brother. And worst of all, I can tell that Dave feels the same way about me.

Everytime we glance at each other in the hallway, even if it's only for two seconds, this heat rushes through my body and there is this undeniable tension. Half an hour later my body is still rushing with adrenaline just because I noticed him looking at me for at least a second, and the thought that he was thinking about me for just that little section of his day, makes me happy. 

Chapter 2

Monday morning, I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock ringing so loud I was sure i was going deaf. I groaned and pulled my covers over my head and just wished I could sleep for at least an hour longer. I rubbed my eyes and slowly got out of bed, trying to remember my dream from the night before. Suddenly my Iphone got 3 notifications all at once. I peered over to my bed side table to see my screen flooded with messages, but only one stood out:

Dave:  hey, good morning beautiful :) 

My heart stopped for at least three minutes, or so it felt like, and I thought I was dreaming. A million thoughts flooded my head at once. Was he thinking about me too? Does he know? Did he notice me looking at him? Does James know? Do they talk about it?  I groaned at all this frustration, wishing I had pursued my crush with Dave from the beginning, but a little piece of my heart would always be reserved for James.  I looked through my other messages, reading one from James:

James ♡:  hey, good morning beautiful :), i'll pick you up at 8.

The fact that they both wrote the same thing creeped me out, and I wondered if it was some sort of weird sibling thing or if they had planned this.  I answered Dave first, and then James:

Dave:

You: hey dave, good morning :)

James♡: 

You: Sure, see you in 5. love you <3 <3

All of a sudden I heard the doorbell ring from downstairs. " Shit", I said as I quickly threw all my books in my bag and quickly put some mascara on, smudging it on my nose and stabbing myself multiple times in the eye with the mascara wand.

" JESSICA, THE DOOR!", yelled my mom from downstairs. I didn't have time to answer as I brushed my hair, put perfume on, and quickly finished my math homework all at once.

10 minutes passed, and my older brother Conrad threw open the door," Can't you fucking hear everyone calling you? Hurry the fuck up." It was always awkward because James and Conrad were the same age, and were pretty good friends. They were both captains of the soccer team, and I always had this sensation that they were talking about me.
