love of my life • j. richards

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Kendall, we aren't actually messing around behind his back. We're trying to make him think we are. I was trying to make it seem like I was being sketchy." Realization dawns on her face and he mouth forms an 'o' shape. "Okay, now. Take off your shirt and lay on top of me." Her eyes widen.

"What! Bryce! Is that really necessary?"

"We have to convince him don't we?"

"... Fine." She sits up, sitting on her knees before pulling the white t-shirt off over her head. She throws it on the floor, then crawls forward, lowering herself awkwardly down onto me.

"Okay, promise me as Josh's friend that you act sexier doing that when you do that onto him." She rolls her eyes, slapping my chest.

"I don't like this." She replies plainly, "At all." As soon as she finishes saying that, we hear the front door open, and paws running, making me wrap my arms around her back, and saying,

"Okay moan!" with a whisper.

"What?!"

"You gotta moan!" She let's out an unsettlingly good fake moan before saying with the same tone,

"Brrryyyce," making me almost laugh. She's not a bad actor. First Buddy runs in, going to the edge of the bed almost like she knows something is wrong, before we hear,

"Yo Bryce, are you in yo-" Josh comes in, stopping short the minute he lays eyes on Kendall and I. She quickly scrambled off both me and the bed, looking terrified. Something tells me that isn't an act. "WHAT THE FUCK!" Jaden runs in, Griffin and Kio shortly behind, hiding their faces as if they're in shock, but really they know exactly what's going on.

"Man, I swear, this is-" he cuts off my fake 'attempt coverup' by doing some more yelling,

"NO! YOU DON'T GET TO LIE TO ME! NOT ANYMORE. YOU. YOU, BRYCE. OF ALL PEOPLE! YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE MY FUCKING BEST FRIEND!" He yells, Kendall stepping forward now.

"Josh, wa-" he turns towards her, shaking, clearly trying to hold in completely bottled up anger. She looks like a deer in headlights, like the minute he looked at her, she couldn't speak. Like she actually thinks she cheated. I see a tear fall down her cheek, and somehow, that's what sets Josh off, all the anger in his body probably going into his next words,

"No. You don't get to cry, slut. You're a cheating, lying, bitch. Of course you'd be getting it on with Bryce, you're a whore." He turns a runs, making me scramble up from the bed running out, me angry now.

When I come out I see Noah standing in front of the door, blocking Josh from leaving, them fighting. Jaden comes up behind me as I watch,

"What the hell is happening, because I know for a fact that you not her would ever do that." I look at him shaking my head, meaning, I'll tell you later.

"Let. Me. Leave. Beck. I'm serious. For your own safety." Josh says, furious, his voice cracking all over the place.

"Josh, wait-" I try, but he turns around in less than a second, coming towards me

"No you don't get to talk! I just found you in BED with my GIRLFRIEND!"

"Josh you don't und-"

"WHAT! WHAT DON'T I UNDERSTAND?!"

"Josh, this was a prank! You just called your girlfriend a whore over a PRANK for my CHANNEL!" I yell, trying to get through to his thick skull. Everything about him drops, and I can see his conflicted eyes.

"But- I... you... she... oh my god," and with that he runs back towards my room, through the door.

Josh POV

I run back through the door, my heart breaking further at the sight in front of me. Kendall, the love of my life, curled up in a ball in the ground, sobbing so hard that her body shake with every one. Griffin and Kio sit on either side of her, bent down, rubbing her back and arm, trying to get her to breathe.

"Oh baby..." I say slowly, walking towards her. I crouch down, Kio and Griffin moving away. "I can't believe I ever said those things to you. If I ever heard someone else say that to you..." She slowly sits up, keeping her eyes away from mine as she says,

"I would understand. I'd deserve it," she shakes her head, as if she's disappointed in herself.

"The fuck you would! Kendall, why would you deserve those horrible things, especially when you only did that to mess with me for a video?!" I say, moving my hand up to push up under her chin, forcing her to meet my eyes.

"I was laying on his chest, I took my shirt of in his bed. I should've never done that Josh, I'm so stupid, I understand if you h-hate me and-" I cut her off, this time from pulling her into my lap and putting my lips on hers. A few seconds later, I pull away only a few inches, saying,

"Did you do that with Bryce?" She shakes her head.

"Anything further?" She repeats that action.

"Then I do not care. You're the love of my life and you're the best thing that has and will ever happen to me. I should have never thought that you would do something like that to me." She looks down, before saying,

"I love you too," laying her head on my chest. I wrap my arms around her, my chin on her head. I smile at Griffin, who is still sitting a few feet away. Then a thought hits me.

"Bryce?" I ask.

"Yeah?" I hear from the doorway.

"Whose idea was it for her to take her shirt off?" No one answers me, giving me my answer. I hand her off to Griffin before getting up, running towards Bryce, who sprints out the doorway.

"HALL!"
