months had passed and she was still with him. it still hurt jim to see that she continuously chose to stay with him through all the shit he did to her. he was rude and cold towards her, he ordered her around as if she was there to serve him, he had cheated multiple times, yet she stayed. anytime jim had tried to ask her about it she quickly changed the subject or hit him with a 'i don't know what your talking about.'
she still had no idea of jim's feelings for her, but she knew hers were growing with every waking moment, wether she was in his presence or not. he was a constant in her mind. she tried her best not to, but if there was ever a time where she couldn't fall asleep at night or if she was feeling a bit anxious, her mind would wander to jim. the image of his face was burned into her memory, she would let the sound of his voice sing her to sleep at night. she wondered what it would feel like for him to write a song about her.
though she never felt anything for the man she called her boyfriend, it still hurt every time she saw him with his lips attached to another girl that wasn't her. he didn't know she saw the things he was doing, but she did. the final straw was when she came home to find him in her bed with another woman. she had tried everything she could to forgive him in that moment, purely so she could continue to deny her feelings towards jim, but she had realized how little respect this man truly had for her. he saw her as nothing but arm candy, and it didn't help that her feelings for jim were only going to grow as she continued to push them down and try and keep them from doing so.
she couldn't stand to sleep in her own bed that night, the sheets smelled of cheap perfume and cigarettes and she didn't want to have to wait up for them to finish in the wash. so, she had but one place to turn. she called first, simply hearing the sound of his voice uttering a tired 'hello' relaxing her nerves. she was vague when making her request only stating that something had happened and she needed a place to stay that night. he was confused and concerned with her words, but wouldn't turn down a chance to spend time with her, so he offered up his bed.
when she climbed out of the taxi and onto his doorstep, she made her presence known with three hard knocks on the wooden door. both of their nerves running high, there was a strange tension when jim opened the door and their eyes met. they embraced one another briefly, she could feel his heart pounding within his chest, the pace seeming to be quicker than normal. she wondered for a moment if he was nervous as well, but she quickly pushed that thought away as she decided he had no reason to be.
