Meant To Be

~Chapter sixteen~

"that's a long story." He chuckled to himself. 

"well, I'm here to stay aren't I?" He smiled at my response and continued to tell me what I've missed. So apparently they trapped Kie and Sarah on a boat together stranded with jellyfishes surrounding them, and they're picking them up tomorrow morning. Hoping everything will be resolved in their past friendship.

"you think the cops have died down looking for me?" I blurt out. I was sitting up on Pope's bed while he was sitting at his desk. My leg was bouncing up and down rapidly from my anxiousness. 

"depends if they found Cameron first." He was now focused on something on his computer, which looked like finalizing his essay for his scholarship. 

"You know damn well they'd let him off the hook. It makes me so fucking furious!" I shouted, my face heating up as I abruptly jump up from the bed. "Hey," JJ hushes as he walks in "Pope what did you do?"

"I didn't do shit!" The boy defends himself. "You okay darling? Feeling better, need anything?" I can tell he was very concerned about me, for some reason it gave me a fuzzy feeling inside. This boy does the bare minimum and he still makes me feel like I'm on cloud nine. "I'm okay," I mumbled still feeling upset knowing Rafe would get away from this, and I definitely have a price to pay. 

JJ comes up to me and pushes my hair behind my ears and cuffs my face. "alright while you guys have stare sex I'm going to the living room." Pope groaned as he shuts the door behind him. "Wanna sit?" the blonde offers. I accept and sit down onto Pope's fairly comfy bed. I folded my hands into my lap and look down to stare at them. 

"hey, eyes up here," He directs my face to look right into his stare, "do I make you nervous Azaleà?"

yes

"no," I gulped. while turning red. "I think someone is lying," He dragged out the 'g' sound at the end. "I'm not lying," I tried to sound as confident as I could, but I can't lie. JJ Maybank made me feel things I didn't know I could feel.

"I don't like liars Azaleà," He got closer to my face lowering his voice into more of a seductive tone, "You what I do to liars?" I shook my head in my response of 'no'. Just like that, he smashed his lips onto mine, eager to taste me again. I leaned into him closer and wrapped my hands into his hair. He had his hands on my lower back and waist inching down. The kiss wasn't rough or soft, more apologetic.

I'm sorry for making you cry,

I'm sorry that I ran away,

I'm sorry I didn't come after you,

I'm sorry I put you into these messes...

He was now cupping my ass and pushing me down onto the bed so I'm laying down. He started to caresses my cheek, pulling away slowly to look down at me. He kisses my jawline, then to kiss my neck, he made his way towards my exposed collar bone from my tank top.

I twist my fingers into his blonde locks of hair making him come back to my lips.
"You missed me huh?" He smiled into my lips. I pulled away for a moment at his comment, making me smile. I laid my forehead onto his shoulder and laughed,
"there you are. I missed that laugh."

I smiled even more," I haven't been gone for that long." I look up at him making my face go soft. I can get lost in his eyes, just watching them scan over me. "I know but not knowing you were mad or where you were at, killed me. it tore me apart Azaleà, I could barely think."

"I should have been more corruptive I'm sorry," I started but I was cut off. "No Azaleà don't apologize, you had every right to be suspicious. I just regret not going after you."

"I told you to go away I was mean about it." I told the blonde. "As you should of be love," He smiles and rubs my back. "Well, I missed your humor I guess," I jokingly rolled my eyes.
