Me 'n' you

Used to be so perfect Elisabeth's life came crashing down when she caught her boyfriend and her bestfriend making out on their anniversary day.
Heartbroken and devastated as she was, Elisabeth found out her parents were having financial crisis. Trying to put herself together. Elisabeth crossed paths with a rude, short tempered and annoying but yet so attractive, creative and inscrutable.
finding solace in Jacob's company, she begins to fall in love. Even harder thinking the feelings were mutual. She decided to air her feelings out, as heart breaking as it was. Jacob denied his feelings for her in the name of protecting her from his secret.

Jacob's POV
"Jay?" Elisabeth called as she leaned closer, i couldn't look her in the eyes
"liz...we can't", I had to let her know.
"Why can't we?" she asked with a teary eyes
"Because it's going to lead to something else"
"Jake! we are already something else"
"No... we are just friends", i said. she took a step back
"Just friends?...Jacob is you think we are just friends then you are delusional because you won't get mad went you get to find out i spent the day with liam, you won't have my name tattooed to your chest. you won't sketch something much drawings of me..." she said picking up my sketch book. of course she went through it "...friends don't share passionate hugs and intimate kiss...Jay!" she blunt out. i knew she was right and that was the scaring part.
"Elisabeth it was just a kiss", i lied
"you liar!... say that while looking me straight in the eye" she pushed me but i didn't linch. there was no way i was gonna do that.

She wouldn't understand. I was doing this for her, i didn't want to take the risk of hurting her even worse when she gets to find out.
