Stephens P.O.V
I was currently at the store getting all kinds of foods and drinks before I headed over to my best friend jades' house. She didn't ask me to come over but I knew she needed somebody when I watched her walk out of school today she had her hood up and her head down and I've known her long enough to know that means she was crying, and I have a feeling I know the person who did it too.
After knocking the door opened to show the most beautiful girl ever, there she stood with an oversized sweatshirt (which just so happened to be my sweatshirt) with the hood hanging over her head, spandex shorts and high basketball socks, Even with her eyes red and makeup running down her face she still looked gorgeous.
"Hey bud," I said as I put my arm out for a hug, she gave a weak smile before wrapping her arms around my waist and putting her head on my chest.
We walked to her room, I put all the stuff down before wrapping my arms around her taking her into another hug.
She had her hands around my neck and her head resting on my shoulder as I rubbed her back.
"So do you want to tell me what happened"
I quietly asked.
"Not really"
"And why is that?"
"I don't want you to be mad"
I put my pinky up and she smiled.
"It was Andrew" she confessed.
I rolled my eyes knowing it was gonna be him.
"What did he do," I said as I suck my teeth, I wanted to hit him.
Andrew is jades boyfriend who in my opinion is no good, and people would probably say it's because I like jade but it's more than that he's always making jade cry he's just a bad person and I don't think she should be with him. Even though I'm the person who talked her into it... I regret it every day I really do but at the time I had a girlfriend so I thought it was time I grew up and moved on but I wish I hadn't.
Eventually, me and the girl broke up we were on and off again quite a bit but she ended it for good because she claimed I was in love with jade... and she's right.
You used to be the one to talk to, on the side, while I wait for my love to break up...
Jade would always say she's done with Andrew and she was gonna break up with him but her heart is too good to leave somebody like that, even though he deserves it she never wants to hurt people.
"He doesn't love me anymore..." I shook my head upset before I laid my head on top of hers
Before I could reply she spoke again.
"Or at least that's what his text said... he said he was sorry he had known for a while that he wasn't in love with me anymore but he couldn't bear the look on my face when he told me."
I was angry, beyond angry at this point.
She didn't do anything but sit here and try and make it work. I knew she didn't really like him but she held on in case something changed...but it never did.
He went out partied with other girls got drunk, he was into some bad things but he was never convincing enough to get her to join, she wasn't that type of girl.
While he was partying she was studying.
While he was hungover she was out helping people with anything and everything.
The messes he made she came up behind him and cleaned them.
Never even complained, she found joy in helping others she didn't mind at all, but you could tell he was taking a toll on her, she was tired and not necessarily in need of sleep more need of peace of mind.
And not to brag but she usually found that in me and Andrew hated it, whenever they would fight, which was often, she would always come to me. She'd cry I'm my chest not his. He told me I needed to go but We all knew that wasn't happening.
When she got straight A's she told me first.
When she won her basketball tournament she ran to me. He didn't even watch the whole game...
She spent her Christmas Eve at my house the same as on New Year's Eve. He was so mad but she was happier with me.
"I'm sorry beautiful" I kissed the top of her head.
"I wanted him to leave but not like that."
"Only jerks break up over text."
It was silent for a minute or two before she decided to speak again. She put her pinky up again.
"Don't be mad?" I pinky promised her again.
"I promise there's nothing you can say that's going to make me mad at you."
"...he slept with Alissa" I closed my eyes and shook my head yet again.
Alissa just so happens to be my ex-girlfriend...
She's always had it out for jade since we broke up the first time.
I opened my mouth only to close it at a loss for words, it happened multiple times.
"You don't have to say anything."
She said before she looked up at me.
"I'm sorry you have to go through this, you don't deserve any of this."
"Eh I'll get over it, I mean how can I not, you brought food" she's actually taking this well... what happened.
"I thought you were sad like a minute ago?"
"Are you mad about this?"
"Absolutely not as long as you're okay everything is fine"
"Then I have nothing to worry about."
She shrugged as she turned to her bed.
"That's what you were worried about? Me?"
"Yea, I thought you'd be mad about Allison so I was scared." I couldn't wrap my mind around this very simple conversation.
"Okay so you just found out your boyfriend was cheating on you? With your best friend's ex-girlfriend? And through all this, you were worried about me?" I pointed at myself like she didn't just explain it in different words.
She nodded at her head watching me go a little crazy.
"...jade I love you"
"I love you too-"
"No this isn't just I love you because you're my best friend... I want to be with you. I am in love with you."
She stared at me with a straight face, I got terrified.
"You don't have to say anything back I know it's weird but I just needed to tell you."
"I never thought you would admit it...I am in love with you Wardell Stephen Curry."
We kissed and at that moment I no longer hated Andrew I wasn't mad at Alissa... I'm glad we went through that hurt because without that I wouldn't be standing here in front of the love of my life kissing her like we are in some kind of romance movie That we always made fun of... but they don't seem so bad anymore.
