Love Is Not Enough [Complete]

Chapter Sixteen

Here I am laying on my bed thinking real hard, which seems to be the one thing I do mostly these days.
I kept fighting with myself over the "I should date Bruno fact", but ended up without a solution. One thing that kept these doubts in my mind was Lelo.
Why does she bother me so much?
Why doesn't Bruno talk about her or why did it upset him the day JR bought it up.
Yesterday at that small party, we had an amazing time. After skinny deeping in the pool, we shared a deep conversation about both his tattoos. Then he told me why he made the nose ring. He said it was because he wanted to feel pain, which scared me a little. But then he fell in love with his nose ring and doesn't wanna add any more piercings on his body.
We also shared some kissing moments, no words can describe how his skin or touch makes me feel. He's just literally the only person who makes me laugh without him trying to. And what's more fun is that once I start laughing he joins in too, laughs so hard you'd think I'm the one who made the joke.
Sometimes I feel like I'm getting into deep with this guy so if I'd decide to start something with him it will have to be on a clean slate, he's not the most honest person right now with the Lelo issue still hidden, I'd have to wait for him to tell me about it before I start anything with him.
Wait... I haven't even asked him about it. He won't tell me if he still doesn't know that I know.
Anyway, I'm still gonna be friends with him.
Case closed.

"Hey princess", JR busted into my room without knocking. He scared the shit out of me since I wasn't expecting him to pop up like that.

"What the hell bro? Get out!", I yelled throwing a pillow at him.

"EY EY EY, what's wrong with you?", he yelled back dodging the pillow aimed at him with his hands up in surrender.

"You not knocking, that what's wrong with me", I got out of bed and went to my window seat. He followed me and sat right next to me.

"But seriously, what's wrong with you?
I took you out so we'll hangout with my friends, which turned out great since you were happy-",

"But you ditched me for a girl", I snapped cutting him off.

"Okay I'm sorry about that. It's just that I've been chasing this girl for a long time now.
But why have you locked yourself in this room?", he asked sounding a bit worried.

"I didn't lock myself up obviously since you managed to get in without knocking", I answered irritatingly since I couldn't tell my brother what's bothering me.

He sighed then stood up. "I just wanted to check up on you but seems like you don't wanna tell me what's wrong, I'm going out",

"Where you going?", I asked stopping him at the door.

"Right across the street", he pointed to the direction of Bruno's house.
I haven't spoken to Bruno since at the party, plus I've been ignoring his texts and calls. I just didn't know what to say to him since he clearly showed that he wanted to be more than friends.

"Oh", I breathed out.

"He's been cooked up in his house too. He's just acting a little strange these days", he said tilting his head to face the ceiling.
He looked like he's trying to figure something out.

"Yeah. Whatever", I said rolling my eyes since I knew what's wrong with him. Bruno has been cooked up in the house since he was busy trying to get me to take his calls.

"Wanna come with me-",

"No", I interrupted quickly.

"Ohhhhkayyy...", he slowly backed out closing the door behind him.

I fell asleep still thinking about my unresolved issues. As much as I didn't want to wake up, I had to. Getting up, I forced myself downstairs to get food since my stomach couldn't shut up, plus I was starting to get a hunger headache.
