Café; Jack Avery

Chapter 33

2 MONTHS LATER
Maggie's POV
I've been ignoring jack and aria for the past 2 months.

I'll admit it's hard for me to not run up to jack and hug him, it feels weird not talking to him after all those years of friendship we had along with aria.

But aria has lately been acting like a bitch towards me, rubbing it in my face about her going out with jack and all that shit.

I've been ignoring her but it's hard seeing your ex kiss your ex bestfriend.

I'm currently in the guys house not doing much but eating a sandwich.

I check Instagram but look up when I see aria walking down the stairs and towards me

"Me and jack are going on a date later" she says not caring a bit about my feelings, but why would she?

"Cool, I'm eating a sandwich. Want these left overs to?" I snap back at her and her mouth hangs open.

I walk out of the kitchen and upstairs running into jack on the way up.

"Shit, sorry" he mumbles and continues to walk down the stairs.

Since the guys have an extra room in their house i usually just stay there sometimes when I'm to lazy to go back to my apartment.

"CORBYN" I yell and and a minute later he runs into the room with a baseball bat in his hand

"What happened?!" He says worriedly looking around the room

"Where did you get a bat?" I ask him

"Jonah"

"Okay anyways I need your words of wisdom right now" I say and he laughs a bit

"Okay what's the problem" he asks

"Is it bad I might still like or maybe even love jack. Even though I don't want to love him anymore, I want to get over him. What do I do?" I tell him

"Well does he feel the same way?"

"I think it's pretty clear he doesn't" I say

"You'll never know for sure unless you ask him" he says

"Ask him? Are you crazy, do you know how embarrassing it will be if he doesn't." I say

"It's up to you, but remember me and the other guys are here for you" he says and walks out.

He's right, there's no way of knowing unless I ask him, but should I?

I walk back downstairs and see The guys on their phones. I walk into the kitchen and see jack talking to aria.

I quickly get out of the kitchen and walk outside.

I go to the backyard and sit on a chair they had there.

I couple minutes later I hear someone sit next to me letting out a sigh.

I turn and see jack sitting next to me, while looking at me.

"Do you love me?" I ask him breaking the silence, but he doesn't reply

"Tell me do you love me? If you don't love me tell me and and I'll leave you alone. I'll move on" I say but it comes out as a whisper, my voice cracking at the end

"I'm sorry Maggie, I don't love you. At least not anymore" he says and my eyes almost instantly get filled up with tears.

"o-okay" I mumble, a tear manages to escape but I quickly wipe it away before he notices.

Is he really worth my tears?

"why, why did you have to go at date my ex bestfriend" I ask him

"I guess me and aria just connected" he says

"Do you love her?"

"I do" he says

"Okay then, treat her well" I say and walk back inside to the guest room.

I just wish I never met jack, because he's to hard to forget.

At least one of us is happy, even if it's not me.
