MY FIRST LOVE

Chapter 33 (brother bonding)

Kate's prov

Zach dropped me home at ten, I already informed everyone that I'll be late or they would have started a search party for me. Zach is a great guy we agreed on Friends forever terms and talked about his life most of the time. I had fifteen missed calls from unknown numbers, I am guessing it's Jake so I didn't answer or bothered about it. I almost drifted to sleep when my phone dicided toh ring loudly than ever expected........I groand but picked it up "what is your problem?" I asked rudely without even looking who's it "You and my brother are my problem" I opened my eyes it's John "Arh.....John it's three in the morning are you drunk?" I asked hoping he'd say no because he promised me to keep his hands off alcohol for a while " No....what? It's not three in the morning kate its just two in the morning." I sighed before replying with sarcasm "Oh....So convenient John." He chuckled and continued  "Don't blame me, it's actually your fault. If you just through your anger in the dustbin and pick up Jake's call then we both get to sleep well and if not he'll just make me call you again and again and again and again...." I am soo annoyed bu this whole again and again and again thing that I groaned loudly before replying "okay.....put him on the phone." No reply or answer or anything, I waited and waited but nothing "hello...? John ?" I asked "Ummm....It's Jake" I took a long deep breath "And what do you want Jake?" I know it's rude but he deserves it. "I messed up things but I wanna make it right Kate, if you could just listen to me then..." I stopped him in between "Tomorrow after college I'll stop by your house and make sure John's there too, now I really need to sleep Jake. Bye." I told him hanging up and got back to sleep in no time....

-------------------------------

"I hate it....just hate it like really hate it" I kept saying that in the morning while getting ready for college. Today is a day when nothing is right it's just a bad day don't have a reason of course..but it's a bad day....I got downstairs looking like a Zombie.... Yup that's exactly how I look. Mom and dad looked at me kike I have grown another head or something, I sat ate and then dad dropped me at my college. I walked inside the classroom slowly and took my seat without getting any attention,  Jake the jerk decided to make my day worst as he sat besides me and started talking "Hey....I am sorry for the late night call but I really needed to talk, I hope you get it and Kate why aren't you dressed?" He asked me seriously.....soo seriously that well....let's say it's embarrassing. I looked at him angrily but didn't reply, he took that as a clue and stopped talking. the rest of the day went easily because I was sleeping most of the time while Jake managed to keep me out of trouble each and every time. The day is finally over "Not yet sweetheart...you remember that you are coming to my house with me ?" Jake asked, Arrgghhh.....I said that out loud and now I am doomed. "You actually said that out loud too... and no you're not doomed, come on let's get you in the car first before you fall asleep again." He finished with a chuckle which made me blush......which is not a good thing at all, I don't blush for jerks, I walked with him and realised he has the most awesome car I've ever seen "Thanks and stop talking to yourself...or I will be forced to think that you're not stable or something." That was the it.... I am not saying anything to me now, enough for today I guess. I got in the car and woke up at John's house, "Wake up kate....we're here." I blinked my eyes and took in the whole situation, I slept the whole time and now Jake is being too nicely faking to be nice by waking me up politely,  I rushed towards his house, the door was opend already, John was standing right there to welcome me, jake closed the door making me realise he's their too, "Jake....who the hell is this girl?" John asked wiggling his brows at me I hit his arm playfully and hughed him. " Ahem....Umm...if you guyz are done..?" I turned around facing Jake he's not making any eye contact and talking weirdly "Umm......no we're actually not done yet, John I'll be upstairs in your room because we need to talk before I listen to him...okay?" John nodded so I walked uo to his room.

Jake's prov

I looked at her in the morning she was looking like a kid, she didn't give a damn about what people are going to think or any make up or something. She's being clumsy and sleepy all day. I am driving my car while she's sleeping carelessly and peacefully, I don't know where did Zach took her yesterday but I am going to find out and kick his ass if he had even layed a finger on her. I woke her up when we reached she took some minutes before storming her way into my house, I followed her and closed the door behind when I saw her talking to John then hugging him... it shouldn't have any effect on me it's normal...they are friends and "Ahem....Umm...if you guyz are done?" Before thinking I blurted this out loud, kate turned around facing me but I couldn't look at her she scars the hell out of me sometimes"Umm......no we're actually not done yet, John I'll be upstairs in your room because we need to talk before I listen to him...okay?" she left after that.....when she was walking away I wanted to stop her, ask her to hear me out, but couldn't bring myself to do that. "So.....what do you think about her now?" John asked me a million dollars question....I just stared at him so, he continued "You know both of you are equally important to me and whatever you do just make sure she doesn't gets hurt. Okay?" Equally important...? WHAT the hell...she just met him like few days ago and now she's equally important, I hate John for saying this why would I hurt her? "You like her don't you?" I asked him hopping he'd say no because he can't and that's all I know right now "Like her.....?" He was laughing and then looked at me seriously "I just don't like her Jake. I love her. Now excuse me with all your questions she's waiting for me upstairs." he left with that. I stood there rooted to the ground, every single word John said kept replaying over and over again. I like her from the minute I layed my eyes on her but treated her badly, pushed her away, made Zach go after her, left her in the hospital, in all sense she hates me and she should because of everything I've done....."you're still standing there?" John dragged me out of my thoughts, he's looking at me amused "Um.....What? No, I was jus " he started chucking before I could think of an excuse "Oh....! I know you too well brother, I can tell when you're lying but anyways she's ready....you can go talk to her, in the mean while I'll get something to eat." He smiled and left. He's acting so wierd after his break up that's it's hard to figure out What is going on in his mind, he just told me that he loves her. Love her. Oh my god! He loves her....technically then he's my brother's girl.....off limits Jake! 'OFF LIMITS' I told myself this again and again but don't want to believe it,Argh.... just got my brother back can't tell him I like the girl he's in love with! I shook my head still standing there "Ohh....come on Jake man up a little bit! You're still standing there, why? Why is it that when I said that I love her you weren't happy for me? Why even though you hated her before you couldn't bring yourself to hurt her? Why when she's around you can't make an proper eye contact with her?  Why are so desperate for her to listen up to you that you forced me to call her at two in the morning? Just answer me." he yelled at me "I would answer you when I know what it is okay and stop yelling she's here and I don't want her to listen that I have feelings for her." I stopped realising what I just said....feelings for her ? Super awkward...! John just confessed he loves her and "U do realise what you said right?" John asked me seriously I nodded and replied "Ya I do but I promise I'll not be a problem between you guyz, if you love each other than...." I started but finishing this sentence is not going to be easy, I'll lose her forever even though she wasn't even mine.... "We can talk about it later first you go upstairs and talk to her, I should also leave and bring something to eat." John finished and actually left I heard him driving off.
