( Listen to 'you're on my mind' by passenger... You'll understand when you do!)

I had no idea what to say, Jake had just said he loved me too. This was to quick. Josh hadn't known me long enough. It was too quick. I awkwardly started laughing like he was playing a joke.

"Stella why are you laughing? I kind of just said I loved you." He questioned me looking offended.

I continued laughing, unable to stop.

"You just said you loved me and we don't even know each other that well! We've only been dating for a couple of days! That's crazy!" I shouted and, of course, still laughing.

"Well I thought I did! I'm not sure anymore though! You're being so rude!" He yelled at me.

I realized he was dead serious and I stopped laughing. I probably just really hurt him. Uh I'm and idiot.

"Oh... Well then you can't have loved me if you don't anymore just because you got mad!" I yelled back ignoring the questioning stares from other couples on the ride.

"WHY WOULD I LOVE YOU IF YOU LAUGHED WHEN I SAID IT." He screamed at my face.

"Because I thought you were joking! I'm sorry okay! It's all confusing." I mumbled with tears in my eyes.

"Okay, let's both calm down. It was a mistake and I said it to early. I understand okay. I'm sorry. Let's just forget it." Josh said angrily.

"Okay." I nodded.

The ride finally came down and we walked back awkwardly to his car. We got in and it was the most awkward thing ever. I sighed because I couldn't stand us not talking.

"Josh. Let's forget this night besides the fun moments. Okay?" I said grabbing his hand.

He just sighed and sweetly squeezed my hand back.

"Good. I can't stay mad at you." He said kissing my forehead. By now we were at my front steps and no one was in sight.

He began to head back to his car when I grabbed his hand.

"Don't leave. Come on please." I said with puppy dog eyes and lips.

He laughed and walked inside. We both say down on the couch cuddling close to each other. He smelled like axe cologne and it was really comforting.

"Josh, why do we fight so much? Like every other day we are mad at each other. Do all couples do that?" I asked him while my head was on bus chest. He looked down and sighed too.

"I don't know. I haven't had many relationships. I just know I don't want to lose this one. You mean so much to me. I guess I said that stuff because I thought it'd secure our relationship or something." He said while he played with my hair.

"Our relationship is secure josh! It's not like I like anyone else." I shut up really quick after that. I hoped he didn't notice how quiet I was after that. The truth was, I kinda of do like someone else. Jake.

We sat like that for a while just enjoying each-other's presences. After a while I could tell he was asleep because his breathing had leveled out and he was really quiet. I stood up and walked to the kitchen. I looked at the clock and read 10:34. I had no idea it was that late. I walked over to the cabinets and finally found some chips. I went to the living room and sat on a recliner across from josh. I turned on the TV not really paying attention to what was on. I decided I should text Jake about tonight but when I pulled out my iPhone 5c I saw I already had 11 messages from him.

Jake: hey.

Jake: I'm going to the boardwalk tonight... Want to come?

Jake: wait are you even single lol.

Jake: okay maybe not.

Jake: I sound needy lol.

Jake: the kiss tonight was amazing (:

Jake: but you ran away... I think you are dating someone.

Jake: I'm sorry if you are.

Jake: I probably freaked you out with the whole, I love you thing. I'm sorry.

Jake: I care about you a lot.

Jake: I'll fight for you Stella.

The last text sent chills down my spine. It was sent only 7 minutes ago.

I responded quickly.

Stella: I care about you jake, I think I like you, I'm confused right now Jake. I have a boyfriend I really care about. I just need some time.

Jake: maybe we could just start off as friends (: as long as I get to hang out with you. Who's your boyfriend? He's got a great girl (:

Stella: you don't know him... He's not from around here... But I like being friends. Friends?

Jake: oh. Okay, friends (:

I sighed and set down my phone. I actually watched what was on tv. It was 16 and pregnant. I looked at the show and although usually I would think those girls were horrible people but I stopped judging them for a moment. Maybe they really loved the guy. I don't know anything about love really. I wandered what it felt like. Maybe love at first sight was real... Maybe you had develop a love for someone. I hoped so because I knew one thing for sure. At this moment in time. I really cared about josh and I liked being with him and him being mine. He meant a lot to me. One thing was clear to me though.

I didn't love josh.
