Always There // Chessa

Tessa's POV

"Okay..? What's up AJ?"

"I just can't help, but feel like, I don't know, there's competition or something... for you. With like Chance or Anthony or the Spain twins for all I know! And I shouldn't have to feel this way considering I'M your boyfriend."

"AJ, they're honestly just my friends and I thought you didn't really want me talking about our relationship?"

"I didn't know if I was ready before, but now I know I am," he said rubbing the back of his neck, "Maybe I should go talk to them, put them in their place, you know?"

"AJ, we are just friends! And they know that!"

"Well, maybe they don't," he said storming past me into the living room.

I ran after him calling his name.

"Maybe, we should just talk about-"

"Chance, Anthony, Twins, and all guys in this house," they were now all staring at him, "Tessa Brooks is my girlfriend and you all better not try to take her away from me, and if you continue to act like this around her, she will be moving out, have I made myself clear?"

I stood there in shock. No way is he able to just storm in here and tell them I would be "moving out" if they continued to be kind to me.

"AJ, this is ridiculous. I am not moving out just because they're nice to me, they are my friends."

"So, you're cheating on me?"

"What- no-"
"Whatever, Tessa, I'll talk to you later, and obviously you need a lesson to show you the difference between being friendly to someone and hitting on someone."

And with that he stormed out the door.

I couldn't believe he just did that. Tears stung my eyes, but I refused to let them fall. I looked at everyone in the living room, each with a different look of shock on their face, staring at me. I also noticed Jake had the vlog camera.

"Jake, can you please, just not put that in the vlog." The words came out of my mouth much smaller than I anticipated and Jake just nodded his head as I ran up the stairs to my room.

Chance's POV

I couldn't believe what just happened. Did AJ really just accuse Tessa of cheating on him? She would never do that and it angers me to think he's treating her like this. I decided I would go check on her, but as I neared her door, I heard sniffles from behind it.

I knocked softly.
"Tessa."
No answer.
I knocked again, this time she opened.
"Hey Tess," I said, smiling.
"Hey."

Her eyes were red and swollen from crying and she had changed into an oversized sweatshirt.
"

Can I come in?"
"Um, sure," she said.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah- yeah I'm fine. I'm really sorry about AJ, like accusing you and stuff, I thought he knew we were just friends."
"Hey, don't worry about it," I said, smiling, "It isn't your fault."

"I know, it's just- kinda embarassing."

"Don't be embarassed, you can't control it," I said, trying to reassure her.

"It's just AJ is so confusing."

"How so?"

"He just," she hesitated, "is."

I nodded my head and decided to break the silence.

"I'm really hungry so do you wanna go grab a bite to eat or something? Get your mind off things?" I figured we could talk there.

"Yeah- yeah sure."

We decided to walk over due to it being such a gorgeous day outside. We got to the resteraunt and took our seats in a booth to look at the menu. A notification went off on Tessa's phone, and she looked at it, frowing.

"Is something wrong?" I asked as she typed a reply.

She looked up at me. "No, nothing," she added with a smile that I could see right through.

"Okay," I said, deciding not to push it.

This went on throughout pretty much the whole meal- her getting a text, responding to it, and frowning. She barely even picked at her food.

"Okay, Tessa, seriously, what's wrong?"

"Huh?" She looked up dazed, I guess she was thinking, "Oh, uh nothing, just not really hungry."

"Then who are you tex-"

"Are you ready for the bill?" The waiter came up and asked us.

"Yes, but can we have seperate ones?" Tessa said.

"No, it's fine, I got it, Tess."

"Chance you don't have to-"

"I want to," I said, smiling at her. She was so cute and I hated seeing her upset like this.

"So it'll be..." The waiter trailed off confused.

"Just one, thank you," I said.

"Thank you, Chance, but I could have taken care of it."

"Don't worry about it. You've had a rough day and it's the least I can do."

The waiter came back with the check, I paid and walked out of the resteraunt, and we headed back to the Team 10 house to take a nap, because we were both exhausted from the tiring day.
