Chapter Fifteen

(A/N ok peoples this morning I was on twitter and I saw that Jonah tweeted that *above* and I got so shook because I was like what a coincidence.. sorry moving along)
"I-I-um" I stop and realize what just went down. Jonah confessed his love to me. He kissed me. I didn't push him away, I let him kiss me- but what about Daniel. My boyfriend. I shot a look at Jonah. "W-what a-about Da-" "he doesn't have to know" Jonah says quickly. "Are you INSANE?!" I yell. "I just cheated on my boyfriend and you expect me to LIE to him?" "W-well your not lying if h-he doesn't know" I glare at Jonah and sigh. "You can't love me Jonah" I start, "it can't happen it will only make things complicated and just- bad" "but what- what if I can be better than him, w-what if I can treat you like a princess, I-I'll hug you and kiss you everyday, I can protect you, I can hold you as tight as you need me to, I will make you warm when you're cold, I will sing you to sleep, I will remind you that you're beautiful everyday, I will change the temperature in the room exactly how you like it. I'll let you pick where we go or what we eat, I will put every ounce of love in my body- in my heart into each kiss. I will love you forever Macy. I will love you and I will tell you that every single day up until the day my heart stops." I was lost in words after that, "Jo- uh- I- we-" I break down in tears, why is this happening? Jonah places his hand on my back and moves it up and down. "I will comfort you, until you feel safe and loved" he says as he interwinds his hand with mine. "I-I can't do it Jonah. I can't love you, it won't work." I sob ripping our hands apart. "I-I can't just breakup with Daniel to be with you. It's not r-right" "I just spilt my entire heart and soul out to you, and-and I get rejected." "Do you expect me to just dump Daniel for you?!" I yell. "Great. There is always someone better than me! Always!" He yells, gets out of the car and slams the door, I open my door as well. "Jonah" I say, but he is walking away. "It's not that Daniel is better, but he came to me first. He comforted me first! Where you there for me when Corbyn died? No! Daniel and I were there for each other Jonah each other!" I slam the door closed and start crying. After a few minutes pass, Jonah is still not back. So I call one of the only people who can help me right about now.

M: Hey
J: Hey Macy, is everything ok? You don't sound good
M: No Jack, I'm not. Could you uh pick me up somewhere.
J: Yea- yes yes where?
M: Do you know the street by 7/11 um- Elm Street? I think it is
J: Yeah I do
M: I'm right by there in a black car on the side of the road
J: On my way
M: Thank you Jack
J: No problem

I hang up the phone and let all my problems linger in my mind. Suddenly I got a message from Daniel.

D: When you get home, we need to talk
M: Ok

I didn't know how to respond, I feel guilty and I hate it. I just sunk down in my seat and cried. Why me? Did Jonah tell Daniel? I had so many more questions. A knock on the window startled me. I witnessed a curly headed boy through the window. I opened the door, "Mac-" but I hugged him, for a long time and just cried into the crook of his neck. "Let's get you home darling" he says after a while. "I-I" tears where streaming down my face, I could imagine what I looked like right about now, my face is pink. My eyes are bloodshot causing my green eyes to pop. I'm trembling, wet stained face. He took my hand and led me into the car. "What the hell happened?" He asked me, placing his hand on my arm and rubbing it up and down. "J-J-Jon-" was all I managed to get out. "W-what?" I took a deep breath. "J-Jona-h" I say, "Jonah what?" He asks now sitting up more and immediately transitioning his face to be more- solemn. "What did he do Macy?" He says once again raising his voice slightly at the end. "H-he l-loves m-me" I whisper, "He what?" "Jonah loves me!" I scream, sobbing. "Daniel" he mumbles, "I k-know- I have to tell him" "Macy- you can't do that" "Jack- just- just drive me home please" I plead, not caring if Daniel wants to talk or not. I am not talking to him, not now. I wipe my tears away. He nods and drives off.

He pulls up in my driveway, I push the door open. "Macy w-" I hear but I'm already out of the car, and shut the door. I hear foot steps coming behind me, causing me to walk faster to my door. I grab the handle but I feel a pair of arms wrap around me. I turn around, "Jack I-I can't do this, can you break up with Daniel for me... please? I can't lie to him. I can't this is too much. Maybe I'll just move, that would work right? So I can be away from everyone and everything. I won't have to deal with having 2 people love me. I won't have to suffer through breaking one of them. Or I-" "Macy- stop talking. You are not breaking up with Daniel. You're not leaving. No way in bloody hell are you leaving Daniel, Jonah, Zach, me. No one. You are staying," he looks me dead in the eyes as he says that. I sigh and nod. Jack swings his arms around me, I do the same, I grip my wrist with my hand behind Jacks back. "Thank you" I whisper. "I'd do anything for you Macy. Anything"
