Katie McGrath Imagines

Make a choice

Your POV
Me and this guy Jake have been fighting for one girl. That girl was Katherine Elizabeth McGrath. The reason me and Jake have been fighting for her is because she can't decide between me and him. I know I'm dumb for even trying to compete I mean I can't even compare to him. He is very successful and I'm just me. He can give her everything she could want or dream of and I can't. The sad part is that she's been with both of us. All Jake has done is hurt her and I'm left to pick up the pieces not that I mind because I'm spending time with her but I hate seeing her upset.

But today she told us to meet up with her because she has made a choice between us.

"Hey" she says as I walk in and sit down. "Hey where's Jake". "I already talked to him I wanted to tell you guys separately". Those words gave me hope I figured if she chose him then he'd be here sitting with her so I got a little more confident. "Ok so then who did you chose". "I chose......Jake. I'm sorry I just..". I cut her off "No don't explain I get it I'm not surprised I should've never even tried but I'm just going to say this he's bad for you he's going to hurt you again and I'm going to be left to fix it but if you come back this time I'm not going to promise I'll be there". Then I got up and walked out not caring that she was calling after me.

Once I got home I laid in my bed for the rest of the day thinking about what I said. I can't believe I said that I'm surprised I could even say that sounding serious because it wasn't true. If she came to me upset or broken I know I would be there for her. I just don't know how long I can wait for her until I'm just done.

~time skip 2 months~
It's been two months since she's chosen him. That means two months I've seen them together in places two months I've seen them kissing at those places and two months of me laying in bed miserable.

Unfortunately work could not distract me because I didn't have any. The people I'm working for have been in the process of moving building and hiring new people and they have taken to long. I would usually complain about work but now more than ever I missed it. It would've been a nice distraction. But at least while they are moving everything I am still getting payed.

Today I decided not to leave my apartment at all. I was just going to sit inside and watch tv or sleep or think. I decided to watch tv because I've been doing a lot of sleeping and thinking lately. So I watched tv for most of the day.

After it got dark outside I took a shower and got ready for bed. I laid in bed for about three hours and I couldn't sleep so I got up and decided to go for a walk. As soon as I opened the door Katie was sitting on the floor crying.

"Hey what's wrong". "Nothing" she said wiping the tears off of her face. "If it was nothing you wouldn't be sitting in front of my door crying speaking of that why are you sitting in front of my door why didn't you knock". "Because I remembered last time you said that you weren't going to promise you would be here so I didn't want to knock". "Come inside".

She slowly got up and walked in. We sat on the couch and we started talking. "I should've listened to you I'm sorry I never should've chose him there shouldn't have even been a choice it was always you and I was to dumb to see that". "No I get it he could give you everything you wanted and I couldn't I'm not mad at you I'm mad at him because he keeps hurting you and I'm mad at myself for not seeing sooner that I couldn't compare to him". "You want to know why you can't compare it's because your better than him not worse".

"It doesn't matter right now what matters is that you tell me why you are crying even though I'm pretty sure I know why". "If you know why then why do you ask". "Because I don't know the full story so tell me it". "He lies again and I don't really want to get into it can we just sit here please". "Sure". She scooted closer to me and I wrapped my arm around her. After a few minutes she looked up at me. "Y/n". "Yes". "Thank you I know your always fixing whatever happened to me and I'm sorry for always putting you in these positions". "It's ok I don't mind".

"Why don't you". "Why don't I What". "Why don't you mind you always told me that he was going to hurt me and when he does you always sit here with me and let me cry and then I go right back to him so why do you do it". "Because I hate seeing you upset and if I have to sit here all night to make you happy then I will. I also get to spend time with you and knowing that I made you feel better makes me feel better so I'll sit here for however long it takes to make you happy".

Then she started to lean up to kiss me but I stopped her. "I can't". "Why not". "Because I can't kiss you if I know that it's not real and that it's just because your upset I can't do it anymore I'm hurt to much and it doesn't help that If I saw you somewhere he was always kissing you". "No Y/n that's not what this is about your the one I want and I should've seen it sooner but I didn't I'm sorry and if I have to prove that to you I will I'll take however long I have to go get you and for you to see that I mean if" she said while standing up wiping away the tears that were on her face.

"Where are you going it's eleven o'clock at night". "I'm going to go plan how to show you that that was the last time I'll be with him and I want you I'm going to go prove to you that your the one I want and the only one I want". "But it's really late why don't you wait until tomorrow". "Because my love for you is not going to rest and I'm bored I also need to stop bothering you with me crying all the time". "Did you just say you love me". "Yes is there and issue with that". "No but did you say that to Jake". "No I never said it to him the more I was with him the more I figured out I loved you. You were the one I couldn't stop thinking about not him".

"Oh ok well just stay for the night you can plan tomorrow". "Nope I need to do it now or I'll loose the idea so bye" she kissed me on the forehead and then rushed out without giving me time to answer. I guess I'll just go to sleep for now then.

So I went to bed.
