Because of Joe

Chapter 14

Chapter 14

The next few weeks Sebastian kept on texting me and trying to call me. I didn't answer because Joe was with me at the times Sebastian wants to talk to me. Anyway Joe has gotten cuter by the minute. He has been buying me flowers for the studio which inspired me to design a new line with flowers. Ilani and Jojo are on their trip in Venice and she always sends pictures. She also tells me all the things happening. Joe has been busy with rehearsals before tour starts and I already plan on coming with them on tour. I was in Ilani's shop one night before closing when Sebastian came in. "Anne."

"Hi."I said putting down the dresses.

"You've been ignoring me what's wrong." He tries to smile.

"Oh you know I've been busy and everything. I rarely get the chance to call or anything. I'm sorry if I don't get to answer."

"Oh I see." He leans on the rack.

"What brings you here?" I put the dresses on the counter to put them away at the back.

"I wanted to see you..." He says. I stopped straightening out the dress.

"Sebastian." I said. He looks at me.

"I know it's wrong but Anne I can't stop thinking about you." He blurts out.

"You know it can't happen...Joe and I are together." I moved behind the counter before he came close to me.

"Yea but..."His eyes were sad and I felt his hand on mine.

"I'm sorry." I pulled my hand away. He sighs before he walks to the door.

"I really do like you Anne. It will never change." He leaves and my shoulders sag down.

Joe was reading a magazine article about me while I was brushing my hair. "'Joe's super hot girlfriend'. I like that."

"Pfft super hot." I rolled my eyes.

"It's true though." He mumbles. "I'm drooling over this picture they chose." He shows me my picture from the Chanel fashion show I modeled at a few weeks ago.

"'Joe is one lucky man having Anne with the brains, talent, and beauty.'" Joe smiles as he reads it.

"Wow." I laughed.

"I have the deluxe package." He closed the magazine and put it to the side. "She's also very sweet, modest, caring, loving, and all those gushy stuff I love to call you."

"Aww thanks Joe." I kissed his chin. His phone started ringing and he answers it.

"Yea?" I twirl his hair on my fingers. He smiles down at me. I kiss him and he scoops his arm under me. "I'll be there." He hangs up. I snuggled my body close to him.

"Wait your leaving?" I pout.

"I have to get to the studio." He gets up.

"It's almost 9 are you driving there?" I crossed my legs.

"Yea. I'll see you tomorrow then." He kisses my forehead.

"I love you." I look up at him.

"Love you." He closed the door behind him. I heard him go down the stairs and his car keys jingling.

It was 3am in the morning and I heard my phone ringing. Sebastian was calling me. "Hello Sebastian?"

"Anne I'm outside." His voice was bleary.

"I'll be right there."I hung up and I rushed down the stairs. When I opened the door Sebastian's cologne and liquor he was drinking greeted me. "Are you okay?" He was slouched against the door frame.
