A Little Bit of Everything and Everyone

Love Mess (Jack Johnson) pt. 7

A hand with tattoos I recognize as...

"Derek! I've been looking everywhere for you!"

"Mami what the fuck are you doing with Swazz?"

"Aw, you jealous D?" I ask. He shakes his head and pulls me into his room.

"Derek I have to tell you something," I say seriously.

"Hmm?" he asks, kissing my neck.

"I like you. A lot."

"Mmm."

"And I'm sick of this friends with benefits shit." Derek looks at me. He sighs and runs his fingers through his hair.

"Lina, you know I don't do relationships."

"Then I'm done. With all of it. You get jealous when I even look at other guys but you can sleep around with whoever. It's not cool and if nothing's gonna happen between us, then I'm leaving." I walk out of Derek's bedroom and into my own, tears flowing. I thought that after a while Derek would realize there was more to us than sex but I guess not.
