Loving a Stranger.

Loving a stranger (part 2): Pictures..

Jess was heartbroken. I can't go in, she doesn't trust me anymore. She thinks it is all a little bet. A stupid bet. Why did I even bet on it. I would rather loose my £15 and get the girl I love; than win the bet earning a total of £90 and let the love of my life walk right out of my life.
I needed her. I would protect her and she would protect me.

I pulled out the photos of my pocket, so I could burn them. At that very same moment the sobbing got louder. Jess appeared. Seeing the pictures in my hand. Oh gosh what will she think. I am ruining things more and more.

'Whhaat.. A-are the-y?'
He was holding pictures of girls in his hand. Seriously what had I done. I had messed up real big this time.

'I found them' Theo quickly responded. How can I trust him?
I snatched the pictures out of his hand. I looked through. There were pictures of several girls- several pictures of people cleavage. What had I fell into. As I turn one more photo over; it's one of me.

'Theo, I thought I could trust you. I thought it was love at first sight. Now I know why I have never loved before.' I shouted.
I wouldn't be surprised if everyone in this gigantic house could hear. I didn't care. Everyone should know what a filthy perv this boy is. How could he, I don't understand how he managed it.
Nothing makes sense, how can he take a picture of me whilst having his arms around me. Whilst me knowing where his hands were all the time.

* * * *
Why did I pick up those pictures? I knew it. I should have left them. I have made things worse. Now she will think I am untrustworthy, unreliable; and all for money.
Was it really me or Reece to have ruined this? I guess it's my fault. I agreed to a bet. I also picked up something that wasn't mine. But Reece shouldn't have had them in the first place.

She was very angry with me. I stood up, and I tried to explain.
I had no chance to explain. A firm hand hit my face. Her hand. She had slapped me. She really didn't trust me anymore. What has happened. I should have thought.

* * * *
oh my god. I just slapped him. I feel awful. I have never hit someone in the face before. It left a red mark on one side of his face.
Well at the end of the day. He was in the wrong. He had messed up, not me.

A little birdy once told me to keep my head help high.
Maybe not told me personally, but you understand what I mean.

* * * *
'Jess! Please listen. The bet was on. As soon as I saw you, I didn't care about my money. I just cares in love. I love you more than money can buy.'
'Right but that doesn't explain the pictures does it....' She questioned me.

'no it doesn't, but this does. Just listen...'
I was rudely interrupted '...why should I listen to you?'

'JUST LISTEN..' I shouted at her' I felt so guilty, I felt awful for shouting at her. 'The pictures are not mine. I found them falling of the book shelf. I went to pick them up. I then realised there was one of you. I wanted to protect you. I was going to burn them. I promise you.' I had to tell the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
'How can I believe you, after everything?'

She wasn't giving up. She continued to question every answer I had.
'If you love me as much as I love you. You would understand' I sighed.
She didn't had an answer for that she just held my cheek and whispered 'I'm sorry!'

* * * *
I hugged him. He was cute. Maybe I was just jumping to conclusions to easily. Maybe he is an honest, trustworthy sort of guy.
When he hugged me back my legs went like jelly, and I just collapsed. My entire body fell to the floor with Theo. He sat there with my head leant against his chest. I could feel his heartbeat.

I wanted this. I wanted him. I has wanted him from the moment I laid eyes on him. He isn't someone who rushes into things. He didn't want anything but me..
