The Girl Who Had Only One Dress. (herophine)

27. "I kissed someone else"

I felt Theo's palm connect with the back of my head in a smack and I let out a loud scream.

"Why the fuck did you do that?" I yelled at him putting my hand on my neck to ease the pain.

He looked at me with dissaproval. "You are a fucking idiot. You actually kissed Bella you fuckhead?"

I threw my head back in a groan. "It just happened okay? She was just looking at me with those innocent eyes and I just couldn't help myself. Besides we both pulled away after two seconds or so"

"She was wearing Jo's dress!" Theo exclaimed.

"Slight detail" 

"What about Jo?" Theo asked me.

"She's not here"

"She'll come back. How are you going to explain to her that you kissed her childhood best friend, huh?"

"You think I don't feel guilty about it? And besides... it's not that big of deal. We were both caught in the moment. It's not like we fucked" I shrugged.

Theo snorted. "Shut up, virgin" 

I looked away.

"What the fuck was that look?" He pointed his fingers at me. Then his eyes widened. "Holy shit, did you actually fuck her?"

"No!" I exclaimed. "I'm just thinking. I'm turning 18 in a few months. I don't wanna be a virgin forever. I don't know how long I can wait for Jo" 

Then Theo was smacking me again.

"Stop doing that asshole!"

"You need to get your mind in place, bro. A month ago you were saying you'd die for her and now you can't even wait a bit. You selfish prick!"

"Jo has probably already found a guy in Australia" I lowered my head. "She hasn't even called. I don't know her adress or a phone there. She knows my phone number by heart. And a month later she hasn't even called once. I think that's a pretty clear sign she wants nothing to do with me"

"Have you checked your phone? Maybe she called but you didn't pick up. You don't know her number anyway" 

"She didn't call"

"Give me your phone" Theo pressed.

I rolled my eyes and gave it to him. I saw him scrolling when he stopped to an unknown phone number.

"What about this?" He showed it to me.

"Bella picked it up. Said it was a wrong number"

He raised one eyebrow. "Call it"

"No. Why would I call it?"

"Bro, that's a home number. But non of our numbers start like this in this country. It's foreign" 

I gulped when he pointed the out. "So, what? It could be from anywhere in the world"

"I'm googling the digits" 

"Stop you're going too far" I tried to snach my phone back.

"Holy shit!" Theo suddenly explained.

"What?"

He looked at me with wide eyes. "It's Australian"

I felt my breath leave completely. "Don't joke about that stuff" I stuttered.

"I'm not joking"

I gulped. "It can be-" I tried to find an excuse.

"Call it"
