Jesse's Girl (COMPLETE)

Chapter 40

* Catherine continued *

I couldn't help my smart ass remark, but something about the way she spoke to Jesse pissed me off. She acted like she owned him, that she thought he was hers and hers alone. Add in the fact that it seemed like Jesse couldn't stand the sight of her as well and she still wouldn't leave him alone, well that really pissed me off.

'Excuse me' the blonde snarled.

'I didn't stutter babe' I replied flippantly. I hate to admit that I was thoroughly enjoying the fact that my tone was only aggravating her more.

The blonde and I continued to stare daggers at each other while Jesse just stood back watching me with an amused smirk on his face.

'You and I aren't done' she eventually huffed, finally tearing her eyes away from me and shooting daggers at Jesse.

With one final humph she practically stomped her feet like a toddler and stormed off down the hall.

'Pretty' I laughed as I fell back onto Jesse's bed.

'Pretty face, ugly heart' Jesse shrugged as he walked over and joined me on the bed.

'Hmmm I wonder what the fuck that could mean' I mused silently as I felt Jesse pull me into his body once more.

'Fuck her' I said to myself, deciding right then and there that she wasn't worth my time or energy.

Laying here in Jesse's arms I tried to just enjoy being wrapped up in his safe embrace, to push thoughts of the ridiculous blonde from mind. To try and forget that I went off the rails last night and made a mess of myself whilst trying not to over think about exactly why I had.

Jesse eventually let out a deep sigh before he finally started to speak, his voice was soft and sad as he proceeded to explain the sordid details of who the blonde was and what she had once been in his life. As he got to the part about the pregnancy, or should I say the fake pregnancy I couldn't quite tell if the reason he stumbled over those words was due to sadness or anger. But by the time he was done I was practically shaking with my own rage. I was so damn angry on his behalf. The mere thought that someone could do something so awful, that they could spin such heartbreaking lies to a person had me itching to climb out of the bed and stalk after that crazy ass bitch and give her a piece of my mind. The only thing that kept me in place were Jesse's strong arms holding me securely in place.

I don't know how long he both lay there in silence but I was so wrapped up in trying to empty my mind of every damned tumultuous thought that I almost didn't hear Jesse finally speak again and after my mind finally registered his question I wished I hadn't.

'So... you get messed up often? Jesse asked quietly, his fingers playing with my hair.

'Hmm' I mumbled, pretending like I didn't know what he was talking about. Sadly I knew exactly what he was referring too, I just didn't know how deep I wanted to go with his line of questioning, especially since my brain was still foggy from last night.

'Catherine' he sighed.

Snuggling in closer to his body I gave serious thought to how honest I was about to get with the green eyed boy.

Depending on how much I decided to share with him this could be the very last time I got the pleasure of him holding me like this and I wanted to savour this moment.
