I ran my index finger over my lips gently as I watched Philip's form walk towards his car before driving away a few seconds later. I walked towards the door of my apartment building, my mind racing with questions yet fuzzy at the same time.
As my hand reached out in attempt to open the door, I knew with every bone in my body that this wasn't the end of the night. It couldn't be. My mind raced on with a thousand questions and before I knew it, I felt myself becoming consumed with anger and as though my legs had a mind of their own, I swiftly turned around and started running.
About 5 minutes later, my body jerked forward and fell onto the curb. "Fuck," I cursed under my breath. It was only then that I realized I had been running in three inch heels. I quickly slipped my shoes off my feet and continued running. As my feet hit the icy sidewalk, I became more and more convinced that my toes were going to fall off. However, I knew there was no way I was turning around now. Not when everything was her fault.
After what felt like an entire lifetime and completely frozen toes, I was finally in front of the house. Her house. My legs stopped running and I took a deep breath in attempt to compose myself before walking up to the front door. With shaky hands, I rang the doorbell.
It wasn't very long before a tall, slim figure appeared at the door. Her body was wrapped in a long white robe and her hair was messed up. I figured she was probably asleep. Holding the door slightly open, she finally spoke.
"Mi-Mia?! What are you doing here? Oh my god, are you okay?" Jessie asked surprised scanning my cold body with her eyes.
"No Jess. No. I am not fucking okay!" I answered; losing all control I had two seconds ago. My blood boiled and my body shook. "I was fine all along until I met you Jessica. Why did you have to fuck up everything?!" I spat angrily.
"Mia, what are you talking about?" I could hear the hurt and desperateness laced in Jessie's voice.
"You know where I was tonight? On a date with one of the nicest guys I've ever met and you know what? I enjoyed every bit of it, every bit...until he kissed me. Why didn't his lips make me shiver like yours do? Why does my heart skip a beat every time I see you or think of you? Why do I feel like this Jessica? Why?!" I shouted at her desperately. I stared at Jess who was now standing in silence staring back at me.
Once again, as though my legs had a mind of their own, I swiftly walked up to Jess, pushing the door open and letting myself in before slamming the door behind me. I grabbed her by the hand roughly and spun her around to face me, bracing her up against the wall forcefully. A whimper escaped her as her breath seemed to have been knocked out of her.
"I hate you Jessica. I fucking h-hate you," I choked out, my voice breaking with every second that flew by. She stared at me, her eyes flooded with tears threatening to spill. "I hate you," I whispered once again before closing the gap between us as our lips connected ever so slightly. Jessie's hands now enveloped my neck and our lips moved gently in sync.
I could feel the wetness of Jessie's cheek against mine as silent tears escaped her eyes. I pulled away slowly, our eyes meeting as the distance between us returned. My thumb glided softly against her cheek in attempt to wipe away the evidence of her pain.
I was suddenly startled as I heard a female voice behind me.
"Baby, you said you would be back in a minute. What is taking so lon-" My head spun around to reveal a female figure wearing nothing but her underwear. I turned around to look at Jess in shock, glaring at her as I felt the rage returning.
"Are you fucking kidding me?" I spat dryly.
"Mia! I can explain!" Jessie said desperately as she grabbed my arm in attempt to prevent me from leaving. I pushed her to the side before opening the door angrily and heading into the street, Jessie trailing behind.
"Mia! Please just listen to me for a minute." I could not bear to hear another second of it.
"Just leave me alone Jessica! Go back to fucking Lana!"
