"Shanice I can explain..It's not what it looks like, I swear" She covered up the hurt look on her face with a huge smile showing off her pearly whites. "You don't have to explain anything..I'm just surprised this didn't happen sooner" "Huh?" I was so confused. I wasn't expecting that reaction. Either she really was happpy for us or she was an really good actress. "So you're not mad?" she raised her hand and whacked the air."Pfftt..Why would I be Mad?" she came over to us and put her arms around us. "My Brother and my bestfriend" she said happily "My BROTHER and my BEST FRIEND!!" She repeated With a bit more Passion but far from happy making sure she put emphasis on 'brother' and 'best friend' as she said it she dug her nails into my arm assuming she also did this to Amber because she screached out in pain. I turned to Shanice and could see tears welling up in her eyes, with her trying her best to fight them and hold them back. The last thing I want to do is hurt her and make her cry she means the world to me. I care for her happiness more than I care for my whole life. I need to put things right. "I'm going to get a glass of water, you guys want anything? nope I guess not" she walked off not giving us a chance to answer for ourselves. we sat in the living room waiting for her to join us. After about 5mins she walked into the living room. "I'm going up to my room..i'll give you two love birds a chance to get to know eachother better." I could see all the hurt and pain on her face. She couldn't hide it any longer. I followed her upstairs. "Leave me alone Jerome..Go back to your girlfriend." I ignored and waited until we were in her room with some privacy to explain everything to her. She slammed her door in my face. I let myself in not caring whether or not I got an Invitation. "That was really immature Shanice" "Immature..I'll give you immature" she went into the bathroom leaving me in her room. By this time you could imagine how confused I was. She returned with a full glass of water. She began to raise her hand. "Shanice don't you dare." A Cheeky smirk apeared on her face. Then she threw the water in my face. I thought she was done after that but then saw she wasn't when a glass came heading straight for my face I ducked then it smashed on the door. "What are you doing?!" I yelled "How could you?"  She stood there with tears streaming down her cheeks."I'm sorry okay, I didn't mean for that to happen. It's not like I planned it." She was just shaking her head in dissapointment. "I don't want to hear it" She turned to walk away from me but I didn't let her. I grabbed her wrist forcing her to turn and face me. "Listen to me Shanice. Amber means nothing to me. She came on to me, started kissing my kneck I told her to stop she didn't listen, she kissed me and I didn't kiss her back but then she asked me to with pleading eyes and I gave in. Which I know I shouldn't have but I didn't wanna hurt her feelings." "But you hurt mine in the process." "Yeah and I apologise for that. I would rather die than see you cry. I would Do anything for you.You are the only girl I love". I grabbed her and wrapped my arms around her, with her resting her head on my chest. "I love you Shanice" She lifted her head so she was facing me. "I love you too." I kissed her forehead showing her that she means more to me than anything. She brought me over to her bed and we just layed there for what seemed like forever. The feeling of having her in my arms was...There was no word to describe how it felt all knew was that I love this girl so much and I just needed her to know that.

Shanice's POV 

I know I over reacted but the sight of them kissing was just so painful, it hurt so bad I couldn't bare to watch. I just couldn't handle it. I just lost it. I tried to keep all my anger in but that just made it worst. I couldn't controle it. So I Threw water at him which I know was really daft and stupid but I was hurting. I wasn't fully satified with him just getting water thrown in his face,I think he deserved more than that after what he had done so I threw The glass at him but after the glass left my hand I wish I hadn't. I regretted it straight away. When he Ducked and the glass missed him I was so relieved. ~Thank God~ I don't know what came over me. Ugh this boy is driving me crazy. The glass smashed to peices. "What are you doing!?" Tears began to form in my eyes and I couldn't hold them in any longer they began to stream down my cheeks. Why does it hurt so bad..It was just a kiss?.. I witnessed my ex cheating on me and it didn't feel half as bad as this felt and Jerome and I aren't even together. I have never experienced the pain I am feeling at this moment, it was unbearable. I just needed to be in his arms, with him holding me tight. He was the only one that could soothe my pain. Although he was the one that just ripped my heart out and tore it in many peices I just needed to be held by him, in his strong arms that was the only place I felt safe. As he explained what had happened more tears welled up in my eyes..."Yeah and I apologise for that. I would rather die than see you cry. I would Do anything for you.You are the only girl I love". I could see he really meant it. ~Just hold me~ As if he had read my mind he grabbed me and wrapped his arms around me, I did the same. This is where I needed to be. The only place the pain would just dissapear. He whispered in my ear "I love You Shanice" "I love you too" I really meant it. He means the world to me if he only knew how much I needed him. My thoughts were disturbed when I heard a knock at the door. "Come in" I said Still in his arms.The door opened revealing a puzzled Amber. "uh..Is everything ok"  "yeah everythings fine" I said trying to release myself out of the hug but couldn't since Jerome Firmed his grip on me. "Jay!?" "huh?" "Let go?" "Oh sorry" A  chuckle slipped from my mouth. He was a bit embarassed I could tell from his blush. "Oh Amber's here" He was in a complete different world, I chuckled yet again. "Yes Jerome Didn't you hear her knock the door. He shaked his head. "Why are you wet?" Amber asked clearly confused, I would be too. "it's a long story" Jerome laughed "Oh.. ok well uh, I just got a call from my mom saying she needs me home, her and Andrew had a fight and that she's going to manchester for a week and that i'm going with her, so I need to pack my bags" She said quite sadly "Oh ok" not knowing what else to say. In case you're wondering Andrew was her moms husband well I wasn't surprised; Amber's mom and step-dad have been fighting a lot lately and her mum likes to go to manchester to get away from it all. I kind of felt sorry for Amber because she was always in the middle of it all ~there's nothing a good divorce couldn't fix~  "I guess I'll see you next week then" I was kind of excited that Jerome and I had the house to ourselves. We did just confess our love for eachother..I think..or maybe I misinterpreted it, when he said he loved me he could have meant it in a brotherly way (if that's even a word) "yeah" Amber snapped me out of my thoughts. "Well I'll walk you to your car." "sure" ******** "Ring me when you get to Manchester" "Okay" was all she managed to get out. She was acting pretty weird though. Could she have heard me and Jay's Conversation..No she couldn't have. I shaked the fear of her knowing something was up off. I hugged her and we said our goodbyes, she got into her car then she vanished into the night. Finally It was just me and Jay alone in the house. We could finally get some privacy. I went in my room expecting jerome to still be in there but I got disapointment when I saw that I was all alone in my room. I was kind of tired so I decided to lay down for a bit before I knew it I was asleep.
