Joe and Dianne: Oneshots

Argument with the friend part 2

Joe's POV

The next morning when I woke I looked down to see Dianne still fast asleep resting against my chest. I could see her eyes where still a little red from all the crying she did before she went to sleep last night. I knew today I would have to talk to Caspar. He had been one of my best friends for such a long time and I needed to know why he acted like that. I wanted to see how Dianne was before I messaged him about talking. Ten minutes later I felt a stirring and saw Dianne starting to open her eyes 'Morning babe' I said placing a gentle kiss on her lips. 'Morning' she replied. 'How you feeling today' I asked. 'Much better, it's only every the first day.' We both got up and made our way downstairs where we had breakfast together. Dianne had plans today with some of her Strictly mates so I decided to text Caspar and tell him to come round so we could discuss what had happened last night. Once Dianne was ready I kissed her goodbye and then texted Caspar back to tell him to come round now.

Casper's POV

I knew what I did last night was stupid. Joe is one of my best friends and I could tell that I had upset him and Dianne. I never wanted to do that, I really like Dianne I think she is brilliant for Joe. I was just having a bad day. I got a text message from Joe asking me to come round so we could talk about what happened last night. That was a good sign, for one minute I thought he would never want to speak to me again. I got ready and then made my way to his house. I knew I would have to explain my actions to him. I got to the front door and just stood there for a minute. This was the first time in mine and Joe's friendship that I was actually nervous to knock on the front door. I took a deep breath and then rang the doorbell. He answered the door after a minute but the reception I got was really frosty.

Joe led me into the living room and I sat down on the sofa. I looked at the floor not saying anything. I could feel Joe's eyes burning in my head. After a couple of minutes I think Joe got annoyed because he said 'are you going to explain yesterday or are you gonna keep staring at the floor.' I lifted my head and looked at him and said 'I'm sorry.' 'Okay but I want to know why you acted like that in the first place' Joe said. 'I was having a bad day' I replied. 'You need to give me something more then that you really upset Dianne yesterday' Joe said. 'Me and Ambar haven't been getting on well recently, we have been having lots of arguments and I think we are going to break up soon. When I saw you and Dianne being all lovey dovey it just got to me. I didn't mean to upset Dianne.' 'Well you did. She wasn't feeling well as it was and when I went to check on her after you left she was on our bed sobbing saying she thought that you liked her and she doesn't know why you acted like that' Joe said. I felt really ashamed I really like Dianne and I didn't want to make her feel like that. 'I'm so sorry I'll apologise to Dianne as well.' 'You better' he replied 'you have to learn that if you want me in your life she is going to be there as well. She is the only girl I have every loved and I don't plan on losing her any time soon.' 'I know and I really do like her' I replied.

Joe's POV

I listened to Caspar explanation and I really did feel like he was sorry for acting the way he did last night. But before I truly forgave him I needed him to apologise to Dianne. She wasn't due back for another couple of hours so I told Caspar to come back in a few hours when she was home to apologise to her. I didn't feel like I wanted to spend time with him until I knew how Dianne felt about it. I got on with some of my work for a few hours until I heard sounds of keys in the door. I got up off my chair and went to greet Dianne. She had a massive smile on her face and her hands where full of shopping bags. I took the bags off of her placing them on the floor as she told me about her day. She seemed in a really good mood so I decided now was a good time as any to bring up Caspar. I took her hand and led her into the living room both of us sitting down on the sofa snuggling up together. 'I spoke to Caspar today' I said. 'Okay what did he have to say' she asked. 'He said he was really sorry and that he is having some problems with Ambar at the moment and he thinks they are going to break up.' Dianne didn't say anything so I pulled away from her so I could look at her face. 'He said seeing us all lovey dovey got to him and he just snapped. He said he is really sorry' I said. 'Okay I guess I can understand why he reacted like that if he is having trouble in his own relationship.' 'He wants to apologise to you as well so would you mind if he came round' I asked. 'No that's fine can we watch tv whilst we wait for him' she asked. 'Sure we can babe' I replied placing a kiss on her head as I texted Caspar telling him to come over.

Caspar's POV

I had left Joe's a few hours ago with the plan of going back round there later to apologise to Dianne. It had been a three hours and I hadn't heard anything from Joe and I was getting worried that Dianne didn't want to hear my apology. Just as I was starting to overthink things I got a message from Joe telling me that Dianne was home and that I could come round. On the way round I decided to buy Dianne a bunch of flowers as a sort of apology. When I got to the house I knocked on the door and was greeted by Joe. He gave me a half smile as he saw the flowers in my hand and pointed towards the living room telling me that Dianne was in there. I made my way into the living room seeing Dianne sat on the sofa. I sat on the opposite side of the sofa to her and handed the flowers over to her. 'I am so sorry' I said. 'I didn't mean to act like that last night and I definitely didn't mean to upset you. I think you are a brilliant addition to our gang and I can see how happy you make Joe. I'm just having a really bad time of it at the moment and it just got to me seeing you too all cuddled up together, whispering to each other. But that is my issue and I should never have taken it out on you. Can you forgive me' I asked. She looked towards Joe and then turned back to me. 'You are one of Joe's best friends of course I can forgive you.' I lent across giving her a hug and whispered into her ear 'I really am sorry.' She pulled away with a smile on her face 'I know you are.'
