Soul mates?

I just cant do that.

(A/N

Writing this for the second time because it deleted when my phone died and because I love you guys!)

"Hey where were you two?" questioned Kaelyn as she set three ice cold water bottles on the counter aside from the pancakes for us "thanks!" I said pulling out a stool and sitting down. trying to change the subject Alex said "So you and C-Jay... how long have y'all been together?" she took a seat and consumed the water from the water bottle "uhh I think about 10 months starting tomorrow." she said smiling and twisting the cap onto her water bottle. as I took a bite of the pancake Wow! "wow what?" Kaelyn said (dangit did I say that out loud?) "wow your pancakes." I said eating another piece as I looked up Alex was staring at me we all ate in complete silence after that.

As Kaelyn threw herself on the couch With a bag of popcorn in her hands "Glad we have Netflix!" she said giggling "yeah, so what movie?" I asked "what ever you want here take the controller." *hands me the controller* as I scroll through the comedy, Horror, family and kids. "There's nothing." I dreaded my words "How about the exorcism!" Alex said clicking on it "Mhm so I can jump into your arms and cuddle huh?" I said frowning but deep deep deeeeeep down in me actually wanted to cuddle with him "Uh no... because I've never seen it before." he said smiling "Fine." I said loudly under my breath as we watched the movie Kaelyn kept smacking on the popcorn, every once in a while Alex and I gave her an annoyed glare until I finally snatched the popcorn bag from her hands "Hey! whatwasthatfor!" she said real quickly "You're smacking and it's very Annoying!" I said I got up and set the popcorn on the counter I really don't like popcorn without extra butter or Tajin or Sugar (yes that's really true cx ok back to the story.) I sat back down and Alex pulled me closer I looked up at him and he didn't even look back at me then he just giggled "Sorry my instincts got to me." I just ignored and continued watching the movie then he put his arm over me that's it does this boy not get that I'm in a relationship I shot up from my spot and walked into the room and went on my phone.

(Jeffrey's P.O.V.)

As C-Jay and I skate to the park my phone rings I answer without looking at the caller ID "Hello?" I ask "Hey babe." "Hey Ari what are you doing?" I said stopping and sitting on a bench "Nothing I just miss you that's all..." I could tell by her voice she isn't really enjoying this day "Oh I miss you too maybe even more." "Haha no not even clo-hold on someone's knocking on the door." "WHO IS IT?!?" she yelled "Alex!" they yelled back "Ugh hold on Jeff I'll call you back." she said but I think she accidentally put herself on speaker because their convo was loud and she didn't end the call "Hey look I'm sorry." Alex said "Sorry for what not getting the message that I'm seeing someone right now or for putting your arm around me and getting all up on me?!" She asked in a frustrated tone of voice. I put my self on mute and motioned C-Jay to listen (I know I shouldn't be listening but I want to protect her from Alex) "I-Uh-*Sigh* Both..." "Look Alex I don't like to or want to be mean but you know I love Jeffrey An-" she got cut off "Do you at least like me?" "No... Yes... uh... I don't know yes I like you but I love Jeffrey and that's besides the po-" she got cut off and all there was, was silence "Stop! Alex!" She "No Ari I love you and I will fight for you." "Look Alex! if you keep acting like this we can't be friends I love you I really do but it's not like that, I don't cheat I never have, never want to, never will." "But Ari I love you so much I've loved you since the day we met at the library I know you liked me at the time." "So what if I liked you for a split second I've loved Jeffrey for at least a year or two even before we dated! because I was a fan of him not gonna lie." she Said sighing "Let me kiss you maybe you'll change my mind then." he said "Oh no he's not gonna kiss my Ari!" I yelled "Ari please be smart don't let him kiss you." C-Jay quietly "No I can't let you do that Alex." She said "And why is that?" he asked. how stupid is this boy? "I just can't do that to Jeffrey he loves me and I love him and to come home with him hating me because I kissed YOU will end me!" "Well if he will hate you for that then he's not worth it." Alex said "No cuz I would be mad too to be honest." she said calmly "and he is worth it the only thing he's not is not worth is me he could be slacking around with some other girls but he chose me I don't know why but I'm worthless." "No you're not!" both Alex and I said "Yes I am!" she said "Snap out of it Ari you're beautiful kind smart sweet and worth everything is kill for you." Alex said "It's impossible for me to do this to Jeffrey." she said "Well nothing's impossible you can do it." he said "No because my love for Jeffrey is infinite end of conversation I love him and not you not anyone else just him if you can't accept the fact that me and Jeffrey are together then we can't be friends I'm putting my foot down." "I know you love me... I know you enjoyed what I did to you this morning." "that was this morning! and it was comfortable and it reminded me if Jeffrey! that's the way Jeffrey holds me when I'm in his arms and he's walking and-" she got cut off "So if I kissed you like Jeffrey would you kiss back?" "No because no one can kiss like Jeffrey... he's the best kisser ever!" "how do you know I'm not better then him." "I don't. And I'm not planning to figure out if you are or not." "just one try." "No!" "Why are you crying?" "Because." "Ari tell me!" "Because I'm useless and boys just like me for my looks." "no." "Yes you said it yourself!" "No I didn't!" "Well not in those exact words but you said when we first met you fell in love with me.you didn't even fall in love with me just my face." "Come here give me a hug."

(Ari's p.o.v.)

Alex hugged me and lifted my Chin "listen you're beautiful inside and out." "I'm worthless." "Quit saying that! why do you keep saying that?" "because do you really want to know? huh?" "yes, yes I do." "I only have three years to live I know you've noticed the bump on my head everyone has and have been wondering but that's why I have cancer okay that's why I'm worthless!" I yelled he just stood there in shock and hugged me tighter "You're still beautiful no matter what!" ugh I love him but I love Jeffrey too what do I do "Look Kaelyn's probably suspicious I'm gonna go back but do t ever think about hurting yourself." he said kissing my cheek and walking out the door shutting it behind him I lifted up my sleeve and looked at my scars and started sobbing then looked at my ring and sobbed even more "Man I love you Jeffrey so much I wish I could live forever I want a family with you." I sobbed in the palms of my hands I got a call it was Jeffrey uff I need to hear his soothing voice "Hey baby I love you so much!" " I love you too Jeff." I said forcing a smile "hey hey... why are you crying?" he asked in a calm and soothing voice "I miss you and I love you." "I do too but stay strong three years will go by fast." "I'll be dead." I mumbled "look Jeff." I said my voice cracking from crying "yeah?" he asked "Promise me that when I die that you will move on because all I need is for you to be happy okay?" "No Ari if you die it will be impossible to move on because I love you." "Nothing's impossible." I said holding back my tears "Letting you go is." he said softly "Jeffrey?" I asked "Yeah?" "Why did you chose me?"
