A Better Best Friend

(Btw I'd do real titles but I've done so many that it's hard to think of them now)
Elyssa POV:
Jack let me in and I motioned for Emily to come in, but she was in her phone and didn't see. I went inside and left her out there, Jack and I went upstairs.

"We need to talk." I said sitting in the bed. I looked at his lips and remembered the kiss.

"Okay, about what?" He asked slowly.

"Well you haven't answered my texts and I-" he cut me off.

"Elyssa I'm not supposed to use my phone remember." He said. I had a sigh of relief I totally forgot he couldn't use his phone.

"I can't believe I forgot." I said. In glad he's not mad. "I just don't want anything to change between us." I said. I looked his lips again and this time I know he noticed, I looked away, but I could see him smiling.

"So you're still thinking about it to?" He asked. I nodded and he sat next to me.

"I just don't know what to do and I don't know what I want." I said internally flustered.

"Don't worry, whatever you decide to do is fine, don't rush. I'll never pressure you." He said. I love Jack he's the best.

"Thanks Jacky." I said. I hugged him and he hugged me back. We sat there for what felt like years, then I pulled away. "That was nice." I said blushing.

"Yeah it was." He said. He moved some hair out of his eye and laid down. "You know, every time Ive had a girlfriend they always broke up with me. It was never because I was a bad guy or because I hurt them, it was because I always talked about you too much. They always felt like I was using them to get you off my mind." He said out of the blue. I chills shot through my body I didn't know what to say. He giggled to himself. I looked over at him,

"Was it true?" I asked. He shrugged,

"I have no idea, sometimes people tell me I do stuff and I have no idea." He said.

"Yeah me too." I said realizing that maybe Emily was noticing those kinds of things.

"I just, every time I look at you I see so much more than you, it's like you get more beautiful every time I see you. I could honestly never tell if I had a crush on you or if we were just that close, to tell the truth I still don't know." He said.

"What was the other night then?" I asked confused.

"Well, I was trying to figure out the answer. I thought I had it, but now I'm back to not knowing." He said covering his eyes with his elbow. It was the little things I liked about Jack, his voice, his hair, the energy behind his eyes, the warmth of his hands, and the fact that I couldn't talk to anyone else the way I talk to Jack. He's just so real and calm and collected, a lot of people don't see that side of Jack, but I grew up with it and welcome it.

"Yeah I'm still trying to find my answer too." He moved his arm and sat up. I put my head on his shoulder. "Jack I know I like you, I just don't want to lose you. I don't want anything to happen to moments like these, I don't want things to ever be awkward because we're too good of friends for that, and I'm just afraid that if anything happens and we break up that I'm going to be lost in life without the only thing keeping me tied to the ground and that's you." I said. I felt like I just wrote my soul and paper and read it aloud, it was like 1,000 pounds had been lifted off of me.

"Well, are there any things you don't like about me?" He asked.

"No there's nothing not to like." I said. That was the truth there really wasn't anything that I didn't like about Jack.

"Well I don't know about you, but if we were to break up and we were mad at each other I don't think it would take very long for us to get over it. I've known you since you were like 2 weeks old. Our whole entire lives are connected, we as individuals, are connected and I can feel that all the time when I'm with you and I love that." He said. Talking to him and being with him and hearing all of this was helping me make up my mind. I picked my head up off of his shoulder. I put my elbow on my thigh and rested my chin on my hand. "What's wrong?" He asked. "Is it something I said?" He seemed upset now.

"No don't worry I'm just thinking." I said. He did a sigh of relief. So much was going through my mind. "Jack?" I asked.

"Yeah?" He answered.

"If we did date how long would it take you to tell people?" I asked.

"Well I'd tell Finn first, but other than that I wouldn't really tell anyone. Well at least not until you did anyway." He said. Jack and I really are alike, that exactly what I would've said of Jr asked me except I would told Emily not Finn. Finn and jack are like em and I, except Finn isn't older than Jack.

"What about our parents?" I asked.

"I'd keep it a secret for as long as possible because we probably wouldn't be able to have sleep overs anymore." He said. That was a valid point. I smiled, I've made up my mind. I don't know how to tell him, but I know he'll be happy to hear it.

"Jack?" I asked.

"Yeah?" He answered again. I looked at him and smiled.

"I made my decision, I know what I want to do." I said. He looked at me and his eyes widened.

Note-Cliffhanger lol.
