Jake’s pov

I got inside the house and hesitantly followed Annie to the kitchen. I didn?t want to do this but I had to. Hurting Annie is the last thing I wanna do tonight.

“So Jake?” Annie trailed off taking out the raspberry juice from the fridge.

She took a sip from it and started shaking the bottle in lazy invisible circles. The sign showing that she was nervous as properly.

I didn?t have it in me to begin. I couldn?t explain what was going on in my head, I was confused too, but I?d answer any question she had for me. Answering was my job and hers was questioning.

“What do you wanna speak about?” I heard myself ask innocently as if my inside?s weren?t about to explode.

“Oh, c?mon Jake quit it with all the act and ? I know we?re stuck in an awkward position but this” she motioned the hand with all the juice from me to hers twice “is not going nicely!”

“That?s not a question” I said to myself quietly “yeah I noticed” I stated out loud.

She arched her eyebrow up seeking angry.

“So do you’ve got one thing else to say rather than the rude remarks Jake?” she asked containing her obvious anger in.

“Look I?m sorry” I whined. Yeah I bloody whined!

“Jake, I don?t want your apology. I just need to? gosh I don?t even know what I want.” She sipped the juice frustrated.

I was sitting on the chair proper in front of the refrigerator. Amazingly I had a smug smile on my face, I know wrong timing for that but I couldn?t support myself, she looked funny.

“Dude, why are you smiling like an idiot?”

“I don?t know it?s just funny seeing you so frustrated.”

“Oh really? I?ve had funnier looks to see lately” she teased back.
“What are you currently talking about?”

“Oh? puhleez Jake. Don?t put that innocent appear. Don?t you feel I know you weren?t listening to a word I said each and every time we had a lone time? I?ve broken up with you 3 times ahead of this. But you becoming the jackass lost in his own dream world didn?t hear it!” she said, her voice calm and below control.

“What?” I yelled. I had no thought.

“Relax? I was just kidding. But I did know you weren?t listening to me at all” she stated a bit sadness evident in her voice.

“I?m sorry Annie.”

“It?s okay Jake. But I don?t regret a thing, you realize. I found some amazing folks which includes you” she smiled wide.

“Yeah, you?ll usually have me!” I stated as I went to her side to hug her.

And I meant every little thing I stated.

“Urgh? no way. I?ll find greater company!”She teased as she hugged me.

“You know? I can go alone to this dance if it?s way too awkward” she stated playing using the juice cap when once again.

“And miss the opportunity to take this gorgeous factor to dance? Not gonna occur!”

She giggled producing a sweet rhyme that reminded me of Noah?s giggle.

“Wait till you see Zo, she?s looking gorgeous!” she exclaimed.

“Hey? how do you know about Zo? Did everyone let you know? I mean I wanted to let you know?.” I was cut off sharply by her.

“I?m not blind Jake. I suspected a lengthy time ago, it?s not that challenging to see. You’ve got this weird virtually irritating smile on your face whenever you speak about Zo. And you realize what, you speak about her a whole lot!” she teased.

“I do?” I seriously had no notion.

“Yeah you do. You just had it a couple of seconds ago when I told you she looked gorgeous”

“But you know what she loves you too right? You guys are like best for every other, the only thing I don?t understand is why bother with me if you each liked each and every other from the starting?” she asked.

“I swear I didn?t know I had feelings for Zo at all. I mean I knew she was unique for me, but by no means realized it was? you know?” I couldn?t make myself complete the sentence.

It was weird, I felt my face acquiring flushed and my hands finding stiff and cold. Prior to I could analyze all of the symptoms Annie laughed.

“Awww? take a look at you Jake? all blushing and stuff.” She tapped my cheeks.

“Shut up Annie? let?s go to the stupid dance” I said as I pulled her to the door.

“Good bye Rosalie” Annie exclaimed.

I stood frozen in my place. Rosalie was sitting within the living room with Noah sleeping on her lap. She ought to?ve heard every little thing!

“Rosalie?” that was all I could produce from what little voice I had left.

“Oh c?mon Jake, it?s not like I?m blind either. You and Zo never uttered a word about it but we all knew!” she laughed quietly.

My hold on Annie grew tighter and I discovered myself finding cold from embarrassment. Everybody in this entire planet knew except for me naturally!

“Okay? bye rose!” I yelled as I pulled Annie out the door!

Damn that was embarrassing. I drove as fast as I could to obtain away from that! It took me about fifteen minute to reach the venue, and it was blue all over the location! Was there a theme decided?

“Wow? why is almost everything blue?” I yelled in confusion.

The music was loud, we were outside but nonetheless we could hear it.
“Blue was the unofficial theme color since the venue?s name is “BLUE CLUB”!” Annie yelled back.

I was dressed in head to toe black. Guess that ought to work!

“Let?s get inside”

When we reached there, the dance floor was crowded and every little thing looked blue to my unadjusted eyes. How the hell are we supposed to find the others? I yelled in my head. The loud music created me feel like I wouldn?t hear myself.

“Why didn?t I know about the blue thing” I yelled as I noticed Danny and Rick in their black tux with electric blue colored tie.

“Too busy day dreaming Jake, that?s why!” I heard Mel from my back.

I arched my eyebrows from Mel to Annie. “We speak!” Annie stated for her part of explanation.

My small Mel looked gorgeous in her blue dress as nicely, and I couldn?t assist but notice Danny staring at her weird. He always finds a reason to create me hate him doesn?t he? If it isn?t Zo, it?s Mel now?

I was about to say one thing genuinely rude to Danny when a girl in white appeared behind Danny?s shoulder. Wow? a person else also didn?t receive the unofficial theme factor huh? I asked myself.

That girl was approaching slowly, receiving head-turns from guys all over, she was heading to our way. I couldn?t quit staring at her, right after all she was the only 1 wearing anything else than blue just like me.

I took a sharp breath in when I realized it was Zo. Annie was wrong; gorgeous was an understatement for the way she looked tonight. She looked like some Greek-goddess in that floor length white dress.

I was wrong too, hurting Annie wasn?t the last thing I wanted to do tonight. Maybe it was the second last factor. The last thing I wanted to do tonight was let that angel walking toward me get away from me. I wanted to hold onto her and never ever let her go! The globe around me disappeared as she walked toward me with her shy little smile.

Yup, I?m not letting her go.
