Crush (Jonah Marais)

Chapter 12

3 months later

Today is the big day. No the other big day. Tour. Me and Nichole stayed up until 2 am to make sure we had everything and now we sort of regret that. We have to get up soon so we are heading to sleep.

"WAKE UP!!!" I opened my eyes to let cracks of daylight in and saw my brother, Sam, jumping on my bed while Juliet was attempting to wake Nichole up.

"Okay, okay I'm awake" I mumbled. I rubbed my eyes so I could see clearer and got out of bed. I told Juliet and Sam to leave so me and Nichole could get ready. Nichole woke up and started jumping around my bedroom. I just giggled and grabbed some plain black leggings and one of Jonah's hoodies (by the way I have a lot now) and headed to the bathroom to change. When I got out Nichole was changed as well. We went downstairs for breakfast before saying goodbye to my family and leaving. We were on our way to the boys house when Jonah called,

Phone call

J-Good morning princess

Y-Good morning babe, we are on our way

J-Good, I'm excited for this adventure

Y-Me too, anyway love you, I'll see you soon

J-Love you too, bye

End of phone call

We pulled up at the boys house and entered. I saw Corbyn first and ran to hug him. He hugged me back and said, "Hey bestie"

"Hey bestie" I said back while hugging him tighter. Jonah walked in and I let go of Corbyn and ran to him. Jonah grabbed me and lifted me up into a warm hug. I wrapped my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck. I just burried my head in his neck squeezing him tighter. I love him so much it's unexplainable. I could feel the warmth coming off him as he held me, he makes me feel so safe. I slowly lifted my head and kissed him. He kissed me too then said, "Hello princess, I've missed you" he smiled,

"I've missed you too baby" I was so happy to see his smile, "When are we leaving, I'm so excited!" I got down off Jonah and started to jump around in excitement,

"As soon as Zach finishes getting ready" Said Daniel as he was walking in the room. Jack sat down and rolled his eyes,

"Jack Robert Avery, did you just roll your eyes?" I questioned as I folded my arms,

"Yes, yes I did" He said rolling his eyes once more. Zach came downstairs with a large suitcase and a rucksack on his back. We all glared at him,

"What?" He looked confused,

"What took you so long bro?" Corbyn asked,

"Well I gotta look good for the ladies" He said while winking at Nichole, I looked over at her and she was blushing like mad. Hmm I thought her and Daniel had something going on not her and Zach, I thought to myself. "Right then guys we must get going" Jack said standing up and grabbing his bags. Me and Nichole parked my car in their garage and took our bags out of the boot (trunk). We all got to the bus and hopped on. Me and Nichole claimed our beds first, then the boys. After we got ourselves comfortable, we sat on the long sofa, it went, Daniel, Jack, Corbyn, me, Jonah, Nichole and Zach. Zach suggested we watch Harry Potter which of course made Jonah very happy, so we put it on the tv and snuggled up.

Half way through the movie I looked around, Daniel was sat awake on his phone, not even watching the movie, Jack was sleeping on Daniels lap, Corbyn was asleep on my shoulder, Jonah was sleeping on my lap and Nichole and Zach, well, they had been flirting for the first 20 minutes then they made out for a while until they both fell asleep on each other. So only me and Daniel were awake. I couldn't help but notice how quiet Daniel has been lately. Usually he is chatty and you can't shut him up. I knew there was something up.

I was still focused on the movie with everyone still asleep, I turned to look at Daniel, to see if he was still awake but he was gone. I gently lifted Jonah's head off my lap and Corbyn's head off my shoulder. I the stood and walked to where Daniel's bed was. I opened the curtain to reveal him on his phone, "Hey!" He shouted,

"Oh sorry" I said attempting to sound innocent, "Um, can I talk to you?" He got out of his bed and led me to the table where we sat down,

"Yes? What is it?"

"Are you okay?" I was scared for his answer,

"Yes, I'm fine" He said while looking down back to his phone,

"You're not though, are you?" 

"No" He mumbled,

"What's wrong" I asked, "You can tell me"

"Okay but you have to promise not to tell anyone"

"Okay, I promise" He looked up,

"Um, Sophie, I like you... a lot and since I met you I wanted you to be mine but you're not, you're someone else's, you don't belong to me you belong to Jonah. Please don't tell him he is one of my closest friends and I don't want to hurt him but seeing you happy with him and without me is hurting me so much inside, I know I will get over you, hopefully but I'm not sure I can say that for sure. I tried talking to Nichole in hope that I would fall for her and that she would put me off you but I think that's just made my feelings for you stronger, Sophie, I'm sorry" Tears started to fall from his eyes,

"Hey, Daniel" I whispered softly, "It's okay, yes I'm happy with Jonah but that doesn't mean I can't be happy with you, as friends. I'm sorry but I don't like you anymore than a friend but I still love you" He smiled, "Friends?"

"Friends" I hugged him tight and he hugged me back.

Damn I wasn't expecting that.
