Then Again, Maybe Not. (Our2ndlife fanfiction)

Chapter Eleven

*Note*

This is a chapter of Haley and Jc's POVs~

(Haley's POV)

"Excited?" He smirks.

"You realize I was forced to be with you tonight. Right?" I raise my eyebrow at him. His eyebrows creased, in a sad way. "Yeah," he sighed "but hopefully you will enjoy it." He grins. I can tell he was looking on the bright side.

We approached a small town house. When he put the car in park I scramble out of the car. "Kian and I rented out this house. For school." he implied opening the door for me. He lives with Kian? Huh, should've known. "Nice place." I remark looking around.

"So I was thinking we could watch a movie and talk, get to know each other better." he smiles wide and sits on the couch. "Sure." I shrug. I sit next to him. "How about..." He goes to netflix. "Thor?" haha he's some what of a geek.

I shouldn't laugh tho. I am a geek for games and movie too. "Why not." My cheeks turn red and I smile at my geeky ness. He notices and smiles. "Why?" I blurt staring at him while he peered his eyes on the tv. "Why...what?" he turns curious. I cross cross my legs and turn my full body towards him.

I let out a small laugh, "Why are you so attracted to me?" He makes a poker face. "Because." He giggles and smiles again. "Why?" I push him playfully. Stop.

I can't joke around with him. He'll think I like him when I don't. Or do I? I seriously don't know right now. He has one night to change my mind and that's tonight. "You're beautiful, on the outside and I hope that after tonight I can see your true beauty behind the bitterness you give me." He smiles but is still upset; because of me.

I feel bad. I shouldn't of treated him so bad. Don't judge a book by it's cover. But I had a reason to be bitter and mean. "I'm not." I laughed in his face. "You seem funny, kind and playful around Lexi." he laughs back.

"Well what else besides my 'beauty'. " I make a sarcastic face saying beauty. "Just there's something about you. I've been thinking about it myself. I'm confused about all this myself and I see you are too." He says lightly. I just need to know why. Nothing special about me. How does he think I'm beautiful. I have scars up and down my arms and on my heart. Emotional and physical.

Just then I remembered I have cuts on my arm. I take my left hand and cover my right forearm. Hopefully he hasn't noticed. I want him to like me. No you don't stop it.

"Can I ask you something?" He looks innocently at my face. I'm to focused on my tattoos. I feel him put his finger under my chin and lift my head slightly. "Y.yeah. Sure." I start shifting. "Why?" he has concern in his voice.

He picks up my arm causing my left hand to slip off. My cuts. "Do I have to answer?" I asked him. I feel tears jerking at my eyes. My eyelids start to burn. Don't you f*cking cry Haley.

(Jc's POV)

My stomach churns. "I'm sorry for asking." I want to hug her. Comfort her. But I know she really didn't like me, even as a friend. I see tears form in her eyes. "Girls like the one the other day." She looks down. "I tried helping."

I look down at my lap. I'm a douche. I shouldn't of ever talked To her. Not my fault I fell for her right away. "Thanks, Jc. " She sniffles. A tear drips down her cheek. She wipes it in a hurry. "For?" I'm confused as always.

"Standing up for me. I know it seems I hate you. I shouldn't of been bitter. I never really socialized with anyone after my ex. Lexi has been the only one who has cared for me. Now that you say you care I'm not so sure. I tell myself not to like you. I just don't know how it feels to like someone. Maybe I do like you. I'm at war with my feelings right now. Thanks for being there even tho we just meet. I'm sorry for being an ass about this. I really am." Tears start falling from her delicate eyes.

I can't help myself. I grab ahold of her and pull her close. "It's fine." I whisper to her. I pet her back slowly. To my surprise she grips to my back and pulls me closer.

"I'm sorry. I sorta got your shoulder wet. " she laughs wiping her cheeks. I laugh back. "Trust me it's okay." "So yeah I'm not sure. Maybe I do, I think I do. Just we need to hang out more talk more." I nod and she smiles in return.

We continue watching the movie in silence. "Tomorrow's Friday." She sighs. "Yeah it sucks we have classes." I reply right away. "Will you ditch with me?" she giggles. "Sure, what about Lexi though?" I would love to ditch school to hang out with her.

"I think her and Kian are having a sleepover at our place." She sighs. "Oh." She looks me in the eye. "Could I stay the night?" she asks innocently. My eyes widen. "Yeah if you want to I have some extra sweats and a small tshirt if you want to sleep in those. " I say walking to my room.

I heard her follow. "That would be nice." She smiles. I check my phone, while going to my closet. "It's nine. You want to watch some more movies?" I ask hoping she would stay up. "Maybe two more." She grabs the clothes from my hand.

"The bathrooms down the hall to your right." I yell. "Found it." She yells back. I get dressed into sweats and a black v-neck. I walk back to the living room. Haley beat me so now she is choosing a movie. I hope we can date. Hopefully she wants to. Right now I think we are at the friend step. I smile at the thought.

"My turn." She giggles picking out a movie. Haley is sweet under neath that bitterness. "Alrighty." I sit next to her she sits straight through the movie The Campaign. We laughed together and smiled at eachother.

I caught her staring at me a few times and I bet she caught me a few times. After this one movie she was really exhausted. "You can sleep in my room." I smile offering her. "where will you sleep?" she asks worried about me. Wow. She does care. "Kian's room." I laugh.

"Oh okay." I help her off the couch. Haley followed me to my room. She sits in my bed. "Night Haley." I smile at her. "Jc wait." She calls as I'm about to close the door. "Yeah?" I reopen it. "Come here please." She motions me to sit by her.

"I need to say sorry and thank you." She blurts out while I sit. "Same. I'm sorry for bothering you and thanks for giving me a chance. Even tho we are just friends." I bite my lip. "Yes. We are friends. And I have a question. About that party Saturday." Her eyes open and close slowly. "About it?" I raise an eyebrow. "Can I still go with you?" she asks. I hear in her voice that she wants me to.

"Of course." I smile. She wraps her arms around me; I do the same in return. As she pulls back slowly I lean in.

What the f*ck jc.

Out of nowhere I feel her lips push against mine. She is kissing me back. We both fall back slowly. "Night." Haley smiles at me. "Night." I smile back. I got up and turned the light off, shut the door gently.

Did she really love me back? Or was that an accident? I'm not so sure.

Thoughts filled my head as I slowly drifted away to sleep.
