Just "friends"

Nine

Groff

I wake up to the sun beaming through the window I look around my bed room and rub my eyes I then wince at the pain in my wrist.... shit how am I going to hide that from the cast....

The cast....
Lin...
oh god my love....

Suddenly there was a knock at my door I grown and get up I put a long sleeve shirt on and walk out to the door

"Phillipa, what are you doing here?" I growled.

She give me a 'are you kidding me look'

"Jon!!! What are you doing here?! We had practice an hour ago!!"

My eyes go wide... oh shit I can't believe I forgot!

"What's wrong Jon? You don't look okay..."

I look down "would you like to come in Pippa?"

she smiles sympathetically "Sure!"

I open the door more and let her come in I lead the way to the couch and set down as dose she

"What's wrong Jon? This isn't like you!"

I sigh "Pippa... I feel dead, I feel like there is no point to life.... I want to die..."

"....dose this have something to do with...Lin storming off during satisfied?...You guys are together right"

I scoff "if you think never doing anything not even a little kiss is 'together' then yeah... well... we were" I pull my sleeve down thinking of last night I want to cut again...

"What happened?"

"I have no idea... he just said that his wife was making him choose even though she was fine with it since the fucking beginning!!! I shouldn't be surprised though.... it's my damn fault that I didn't get to him in time!!! Fuck! I just want waste away and forget it all!"

Phillipa puts her hand on my shoulder "I know it hurts darling, but you can't just waste away here, you need to get out! I know-" she gets up and puts her purse on her shoulder "- I'll be back in an hour, get a shower and dress for a party!"

I look up at her "who's throwing a party?"

She chuckles "Daveed who else" I look down and play with my sleeves "what if Lin is there"

I think she noticed me playing with my sleeve every time I brought up Lin. she sat back down she grabbed my wrist, I wince.

"Sorry!" she whispers and pulls my sleeve up.

Her eyes go wide.

"Oh god" is all she says at first. She has tears in her eyes.

"I'm sorry" is all I can say she shakes her head no "these need to be cleaned, Come on"

She guides me to my bathroom knowing where it is after being here several times
She cleans my wrist and then dried it.

She sighed and smiled "okay you go get ready and I'll be back" I grown "okay fine but I'm not talking to Lin" she giggles with a little sympathy and left my apartment

I go to my room and look around I pick out a stylish sweater vest with sleeves with a deep red undershirt and a pair of jeans I thin put on my leather jacket and then I put my vans on

I then go in and brush my teeth and style my hair

I then hear Pippa and I walk out

"You look great!!" I smirk "thanks... I literally just threw this on" she laughs "come in let's go!"
——-
We get to the party and I go to the kitchen I seriously need a drink suddenly Daveed runs into me

" WOOOO!-" he's holding a cordless mic "-ITS MY HOME BOI GROFF EVERYBODY SAY HEYYYY-" they do, even though most of them aren't even looking "-BEAUTIFUL MY PEOPLE" he turns the mic of and looks at me and smiles He then pores two shots and hands me one I smirk as we dink it and then sink it (it's from good mythical morning if you didn't know) I cough a bit and laugh "you always go big on these party's" I make sure to yell so he hears me.

"I know I love it!" He shouts back, then dances off

I smile looking around until I spot him

There stands Lin off to the side looking broken sad... when we make eye contact I want to scream, I want to run over there pushing everyone out of our way and just kiss him melt in his arms, but he chose his wife.

I suddenly see him walk over not braking eye contact.

If you have seen looking the movie it's like the last seen at the club

He is now as close as possible without touching me.

We don't say anything, we just do what we have clearly both wanted to do for a long time...

he kisses me...

It's the most passionate kiss I have ever had. He puts his left hand on my waist and his right on my cheek, I put my right hand at the back of his neck and my left one on his chest... it's like no one is around... all the noice is gone it's just me and him the love of my life is standing here kissing me

He ends the kiss and he puts his and through my hair and he sighs happily

"follow me, love"

My heart flutters and my face was clearly red I nod and followed

He led me to an empty room and he shuts the door and locks it I turn and I see him smirking happily at me.

"Make love to me"
