Young Love

Chapter Forty-Eight

Julianna's POV:

I woke up & went to turn but I couldn't. Andrew had his arms wrapped tight around my waist not wanting me to leave.

I caressed his hands a little & his grip loosened so I slipped from next to him & replaced myself with a pillow.

I hurried & grabbed everything from the room. All my clothes, shoes, jewelry, I packed EVERYTHING. I packed all of Sophia's toys & shoes as well.

I can't leave anything that'll cause me to come back.

I went back to the guest room & stared at Andrew while he slept. His face had tear marks on his cheeks & his nose was read from crying hisself to sleep. I can only imagine how I look but I don't have time for that.

I kissed his cheek before walking out the room.

It's gonna take a lot to move in from him.

Jacob's POV:

I was woken up by the door closing. What is Julie doing home so early?

I went across the hall & saw her tucking Sophia in.

"Hey.", I said.

She jumped & turned around & saw it was me. Her face was red & her eyes were red & swollen.

"God, Jacob. You scared me.", she said holding her chest.

"Sorry. It's 6 in the morning. What are you here?", I asked.

"I live here.", she said in a 'duh' tone.

"I know that. I mean you usually don't come back from Andrews until tomorrow or later on in the night.", I said.

"I just felt like coming home.", she said walking out of Sophia's room.

"Aye, wait up.", I said grabbing her hand & pulling her closer to me.

"Yes?", she said looking everywhere but at me.

"Are you, okay?", I asked.

"I'm fine.", she said looking down.

"No you're not. Look at me.", I said holding her chin so she was looking me directly in my eyes.

Her brown eyes were filled with tears that were dating to fall.

"Hey, what's wrong?", I asked.

She opened her mouth to speak but nothing but heavy sobs came out.

What in the hell is wrong with her?

I picked her up & went in my room & sat on the bed with her in my lap.

"Julie, what's wrong?", I asked her.

"H-h-he ", she started stammering but I couldn't understand her.

I took her face in my hands & made her look at me.

"Hey. Stop crying. Breath & tell me what's wrong.", I said wiping her tears with my the pads of my thumbs.

"He cheated on me.", she said softly.

"Shit, Julie. I'm sorry.", I said holding her body close to mine.

I've been wanting them to break up but not like this. I can't stand to see her hurt. She didn't deserve this. I wish I could take away her pain just so I can see her smile.

After all the crying I heard her sobs die down a little. I looked down & saw her asleep in my chest. I laid down on the bed with her small figure on top of me with her head my chest.
