Our Love {Nina Dobrev And Ian Somerhalder Fanfiction}

Chapter 2 - Awkwardness

Chapter 2
Nina's POV
I closed my bag and laid it on the floor.
We were leaving to go to Australia in 2 days, but I finished packing up early this time, I don't know why but I did.
Apparently Andrea was joining us... And I felt jealous, very jealous to be exact.
Ian and I planned on going to Australia this summer but then we broke up...
Now he's taking 'her'.
She seemed a little nice but I wish her and Ian didn't show this much PDA.
Whenever we all hang out together, 70% of the time, they're making out and the other 30% is them talking which is mostly yes and/or no.
Today we were going to watch a movie me, Zach and Paul, since everyone else was too busy. I heard a knock on my door making me get up.
"Zach! Hey!" I said while opening the door.
Ops.
"Oh um sorry I wasn't expecting you here" I awkwardly said.
"It's fine uh you forgot this at my apartment and while I was packing I uh saw it" Ian said and gave me my bracelet.
"Oh yeah! Thank you, I guess" I smiled.
He nodded, "sure"
We stayed in an awkward silence for what seemed like eternity, but in reality it was about 30 seconds.
"Would you like to uh come in?" I asked.
Please say yes, please say yes, please say yes.
"Sorry I can't, Andrea is waiting for me. So I'll see you soon?" He half smiled.
Oh.
"Yes sure, bye!" I said and closed the door.
Sometimes before Andrea was here we joked a lot, like we were bestfriends. Then out of nowhere he brought on set and introduced her to us as his girlfriend.

We do talk sometimes, too. But when she's with us, he barely pays attention to anything we say.

I think I made the wrong decission when I agreed to breakup.

But he, on the other hands looks perfectly fine.

*flashback*
"Damn that was hot" He whispered in my ear sending tingles down my body.

I giggled, "sure was!"

We had just finished our sex scene for the set.

I opened the door to my trail and he got in with me. I raised an eyebrow, "aren't you going to change or wear something Damon?"

"Nope i'm good, and since when did I become Damon?"

"Oh shit sorry" I laughed.

He laughed, "just go change, Elena."

"Yes, sir."
"Damn, I so want to fuck you in that robe."

"Ian, not now" I giggled and closed his robe again, seeing as he just untied it.

He rolled his eyes childlishly and sat down while I changed into skinny jeans and one of Ian's black v-neck shirts since my part for the day finished.

"How many scenes do you have left?" I asked Ian.

"2 it's not until after at least an hour and a half." He replied.

"Oh good more time for us" I said and kissed lips.

A few minutes later finally he decided to wear some clothes.

"Soo neen, I need talk to you" Ian said nervously.

"What about?" I asked curiously.

"You know, us, life and the future"

"Mhm" I said waiting for him to continue.

"I just don't know how to say this." He bit his lip
What?
"The fact that I'm 35 now, Nina."

I stayed in silence waiting for him to continue.

"I need to grow up, start building a family. And-"

"Ian. What are you trying to say? Just get to the point." I was starting to get irritated.

"Ugh fine, I love you Nina but you're not ready to be married, and I know that and I respect it, but when will you be ready?"

I could feel tears fill my eye as he continued talking, "Nina I don't want to get married at an old age, you should know that. And it's not fair for you to get married at a young age. I don't want to be 40 when I get married that's for sure. But you, you're not even ready not ready for anything babe. It's not like it's the end of the world if we tie the knot. Have you ever stopped yourself to ask about me? You're not ready, you're young I get it. But me? I'm fucking older."

I cut him off, again. "What are you trying to say? You want this all over?"

"I don't want this over, I don't. It just has to be over, things won't be any better if it's this way. And I'm sorry for the sudden thought, it's just I've been thinking about it for weeks and it's-"

"I get it. You're right."

"I am?" He asked, clearly shocked.

And I nodded, "You are, Ian. I don't know when will I be ready! You want a family, I don't know when I will give you that!" I turned around to hide my face so he wouldn't see the tears, "You can do what you want, it's your life."

"So it's over? We're over?" He asked.

I nodded, "It is. You want a family, go find someone who will-"

After a while he finally spoke, "Fine. I'm glad you're okay with this. I have been thinking about it for a very long time, I just had no idea when to say it."

I wondered how long he has been waiting for? The past few months.. I told him I love him and he said so too.. But he was thinking of this moment.. Of ending everything.

You could've waited until this 1 hour break was over..

We could have kissed, talked and I could have heard him he tells me he loves me one more time. We could've probably had sex one more time. And I wanted all those things terribly.

But now we're over. Ian and Nina together are over. And it sure is one scary feeling.

"I was scared of losing you as a friend, too." He finally spoke after what seemed like minutes.

"Nina, I love you and you mean a lot to me.. We became bestfriends over the years. Even more" he scratched the back of his head, "could we still have this friendship?"
What?

I was shocked. I was hurt. A part of me agreed. But the other part said no.

But it would be awkward if I said that I still wanna be with him. Right?

"You know Ian, you're right and of course we can nothing will ruin our friendship" I faked a smile and turned to face him again.

It's a good thing im an actress.
I can put up a fake smile anytime and no one would notice.

"Promise?" He put out his pinky.
"Promise. Always" I smiled and he pulled me in a hug.

"That was way easier than what I thought would be! Thank you Neen!" Ian laughed. "I'm going to leave now. Need to get ready for my next scene. Bye."

Little did I know that this promise that he made, was broken by him.
And the hardest thing is that we have to be lovers on set.. Guess we need to be more professional now....

*end of flashback*

I remember I asked him to close the door behind him then I cried for hours. Blaming everything. I even blamed him for being 10 years older than me and blamed me for saying no to him the first time he proposed.

My phone buzzed on the table, taking me away from my thoughts so I grabbed it and checked.

I had a whatsapp notification from Zach. He sent a voicenote,
"Hey Neen, paul and I are at his home now hurry up and decide either watch a movie at his home or we could go to AMC like we planned? Reply asap, bye!" Zach was saying. I also heard Paul singing Bruce Springsteen in a weird accent in the background which made me giggle.

"I think we won't make it on time for a good movie. So watch a movie at home? Come over now and we'll have a movie night here" I recorded and clicked send.

He replied "okay coming in a few"
I sent back the grinning emoji and set my phone down on the table.

I grabbed the bracelet again.
Why did he return it?
He got it for me in the first place...
Maybe he forgot that he gave it to me?
I sort of forgot about the bracelet. It was dingling in my wrist constantly for over a year I must've forgotten it there a few days before we broke up.

He got it for me on our third anniversary where he had said "Three years have passed now to three million more years together."

Maybe giving it back to me either, meant that he wanted nothing to do with me or maybe he wanted to get back.

But i'm going with the first one since he has Andrea now.
Finally the bell rang!
Great! Perfect timing to get my mind off of Ian and his girl...
