Selena Perez was a mess for the first time in her life I mean she sure didn't look it she still looked like she had everything under control when in actuality she's sob every night to little talks and wear the leather jacket Jess got her so they could match to bed nightly I felt bad for my Friend so what did I do I tracked the asshat down for some big boy talk time I stood outside of his apartment and knocked on the door he answered it and looked very surprised to see me and I just gave him a look of hatred "what have you done This time Jess"I accuse getting in his face he looked confused I guess he really didn't know she was a mess
"Damnit Jess she was finally happy!" I yelled and he flinched at my sudden you tone which I wasn't planning on lowering "and she isn't now?" He asks crossing his arms we walk into his empty apartment and I follow him to his kitchen on the kitchen fridge he has a tiny piece of paper that says

"From here to the moon and back,
Who else in this world would love you like that,
Love everlasting I promise you that,
From here to the moon and back,
~Lena"

"Stop staring at that" he snapped at me and turned my attention back to him I of course knew how much Lena liked to write songs but she never really showed anyone her music no one except Jess I guess "what do you mean she's a mess Rory" he asks handing me a soda I gladly take it and take a seat at his table he takes a seat across from me and fumbles with his fingers "she's keeping herself busy by day with this audition for one of our friends but by night" I pause reconsidering if should tell him about how she's really doing "Rory finish the damn sentence" Jess almost threatened and I could tell he was worried about Selena "she's been crying herself to sleep in the matching jacket you got her" I blurt our and I can she his jaw clenched he was hurting her Jess hated hurting Selena yet it was all he was good at I looked over at the table and Their was a book that said it was written by Jess i picked up the book and Jess tried to reach for it but I dodged it "Jess what is this" I ask if was titled "Loving Lena" he sighed taking the book from my hand
"Its a book about me and Selena" he admits

Lena

Auditions are today that meant waking up my little trainee and get her pumped to get a spot on the team I knocked on her door no answer I knocked again then I decided to kick her door down she was on her bed about to have a panic attack I sighed and walked over to her side to comfort her Reni was a beautiful talented girl she just let her anxiety get the best of her I admit I have that issue as well but what kind of friend would I be if I didn't help her "look you're gonna do great" I assure her and she nods I pull her into my arms for a quick hug and she finally let her guard down and hugged me back "now let's get ready" I cheered and I helped her get up she was now calm

I was  ready and standing by the side stage waiting for our cue with the rest of the girls waiting for them to call our name they did and we walked on stage and Reni started the song

Why was he here I can't believe I slapped him I was just so angry I couldn't hold it back I just ran off after I smacked Jess across the face and was currently hiding at the bottom of a Yale staircase crying my eyes out because I snapped

Jess

       She was crying I had made her cry I fucked up majorly I tried running after her but it was no use that is until I heart weeping coming from a staircase I went to open the door but was tugged back "you must be Jess" a guy asks crossing his arms at me I nod and try to go but he stops me "you've done enough I'll go check on Lena" he spat and I rolled my eyes at this he was not starting with me right now
"And who the hell are you" I asl crossing my arms now he was the guy keeping me away from the girl I love "I'm the one who picked up the pieces when you left" he responded and something had never made me angrier in my life "yeah well I'm back and I'm not going anywhere," I say through gritted teeth getting in this guys face he was taller than he not that I cared "yes you are Lena can't do this Bro and I know you love her but she needs time if you really love her you'll give her time until then you have to let her get over you" he pauses and placed an arm on my shoulder "she's a mess dude she needs a stable relationship right now and honestly I wanna be that for her" he confessed this guy was not telling me he was gonna date Lena then it clicked I couldn't be stable for her she deserved stable she deserved to be happy and this  guy was gonna make her happy that's all I've ever wanted for her "you're right" I mutter our breathlessly and he nods
"Don't break her heart okay" I demand he nods and opened the door to the stairs I catch the door before it closes and lean against the frame watching as he sat next to her and pulled her close she immediately hugged him and started to sob even louder "why does it hurt so much!" She almost screamed out as she cried into his chest and I felt tears brim my eyes he tilted her head with his hand and kissed her forehead the way I used to when she told me she'd had a bad dream I sighed walking out and closing the door this is what Selena needed and for once she didn't need me this was good for her right?
