Make me fall in love

Day 5 - The Reconcile

Richard's P.O.V

She is with a guy. She is flirting with him freely. I can't even express how much it bothered me. It is almost like she is trying to show me that she could indeed get with any guy.

After a few drinks with my friends, I let it go. I thought Jennifer could stay faithful for at least a month. Still I am having a little amount of faith in her. Even though the guy is no longer around her, who knows what would have happened if I hadn't arrived.

If Jennifer is flirting, then I can also flirt.so I began to flirt too.

At this point I don't remember how many people I've flirted with. One thing I do know for sure though, Jen is always around me, always looking at me flirting with others and she did nothing. It's like she knew I am doing it on purpose because she kept looking at me straight in the eye when I was touching or gigging like an i***t at something stupid the girl I am flirting with said. Sometimes Jennifer even laughed and shook her head, as if she knew I am trying to make her jealous. After a while, she seemed to be bored or annoyed or amused of watching me flirt with random girls and went to dance .  When Jennifer walks, you can practically imagine her in a catwalk but seeing her dance? that's a massive turn—No... Let's just say she dances quite well.

She is dancing a slow and sensual song and the way she is grinding on Elliott, the way she is moving her hips. I wasn't the only one staring at them dance, they both were so good at it, they made it look so f*****g sexy and slow, so sensual but not nasty like other people did. Right now, Jennifer is facing him, her forehead against his uead and her hands are enveloped around his neck, his hands are on her hips, I have to swallow hard the little anger I kept feeling when I looked at them, I have to remind myself time after time that Jennifer said she'd never do anything with her friends and Elliott was her friend, but they were so close!! And then Jennifer turned around, her back was on his front and his chin is on the crook of her neck. Jennifer's eyes found mine, I couldn't look away, seeing her dance like that, the way she bit her lip looking at me, I am paralysed.

She then whispered something in Elliott's ear, he laughed but nodded and then she began to...walk...towards...me. She looked like a tiger ready to kill her prey. Within seconds she was right in front of me and I'm completely frozen.

"So, are you done with your little game?" She smirked, I swallowed hard. "Come, let's dance."

I am too frozen to even move. Seriously, my legs felt like two sticks stuck to the floor, they wouldn't bent. Besides, I can't dance, specially not this music, this is something else, this music comes easy for her because it's her music,I'm Italian and Irish, just because I can sing doesn't mean I can dance... She looks back at me when she finds that  I didn't follow her, a frown takes over her beautiful face. "I...I- Erm, well, I can't, you know... Dance?"

She moved closer to me with a little cute smile, her hands landed on my waist, her lips on my cheek, oh god she kissed my cheek! I thought we are mad at each other and sometimes I forget that Jennifer is supposed to be my girlfriend so it takes me by surprise whenever she does this . I can't help it as I like it. she moved her lips towards mine and slightly brushed hers against mine. "You had me following you practically the whole night, I watched you flirt with lot of girls, you've been trying to make me jealous and I've got to admit it did have a little effect on me, more so when this girl has been eying you the whole night and much to my dismay I gotta say: I don't like it. I hate being the jealous type, love, don't make me one. So, I guess now it's time for you to pay attention to me and only me, let me show them that you're with me for now, only me." She whispered against my ear, I could feel shivers going down my spine, Oh dear, what have I gotten myself into. One of her hands slid to my hip and the other to the end of my back, she pressed her body against mine. "Come on Richard, just follow my lead, yeah?" I nodded because what else could I f*****g do? My legs already felt like jelly so I'm guessing that could help me when we start 'dancing'.

Jennifer began to lead me and to be honest it was easy, once I forgot about everybody else, once I saw Jennifer's eyes focused on me and only me. We were staring at each other and I kept feeling this weird pull that kept trying to push me to her but I kept trying really hard to resist it, yes I was practically melting at her touch but still, I was supposed to be mad at her. She kept leading me with her hands on my hips, swinging slowly following the beat, I swear never in my life had I thought I could ever dance like this, it feels so intimate; we were so close. Her body was pressed against mine and I swear every single cell in my body was jumping with excitement. I could tell she was waiting for me to kiss her but I didn't, I was trying to resist the urge to press my lips against hers. She must've gotten tired of waiting for me because while we were dancing, she took one of her hands off my hip and placed it at the back of my neck, pulling me to her while we danced, she didn't kiss me but she pull me to her and we were so close, close enough that our lips were slightly touching, her hot breath hit my lips, it was enough to make my whole body burn with desire. Her forehead was on mine, her burning eyes were locked with mine, her nose against mine... She finally kissed me.

Before I had the chance to deepen the kiss, she turned me around so my back was pressed against her chest, her chin pressed against my shoulder. She took my hands and wrapped me in a hug as she kissed my cheek and laughed at me. My face, my body, my insides, the whole me, my entire being was burning under her touch. "See, now they all know you're mine and I'm yours." She said with a smirk, I just had to turn to look at her, I  have to turn my face to look at her, did she really mean it? There is no dishonesty in her eyes, there is no mockery, she is being serious, something must have changed in my expression because she then added, "For however long."

"When I break your heart you mean." I joked to lighten the mood as I look at her straight in the eyes, something changed in her eyes but I couldn't tell what it is because she quickly looked away forcing a laugh.

"Or when I break yours." She smirked and the tenth song finally finished, she finally decided to stop dancing. "I'm thirsty." She guided me towards the kitchen still holding my hand and indeed, all eyes were on us. She smiled at me as we walked inside the kitchen.

"Dude, who know you could move like that Richard, swear I think I'm turned on." Jessica laughed, clearly drunk. She wasn't supposed to drink, she was supposed to take us home. I rolled my eyes and accepted the cup Jennifer handed to me, drinking her own she looked at Jessica.

"Jess, you're drunk." Jen said while I laugh, it's Jessica the one who said she wouldn't drink.

"Yeah, I know but look at him!" She whined as she pointed at Nick dancing with some girl, the new girl, I don't even remember her name.

"Oh, Shay!" Jennifer smiled, of course she would remember her. I rolled my eyes again.

"Oh, of course you'd remember." I said

"Oh, but of course I do." She smirked moving closer to me "I gotta say, I never liked jealousy but with you, huh, I find it kinda funny."

"I'm not jealous." I said frowning.

"Oh but you are." She smiled again.

"No I am not—"

"Guys, stop it with your lovey-dovey flirting !" Jessica snapped at the both of us, we looked at her with wide eyes, "Seriously, I came here because he invited me, he told me to come so we could spend some time together but as soon as that b***h walked in, he completely forgot about me, well not completely, he tried to talk to me and pay attention to me but I could tell he wanted to be with her too. Argh, I hate boys like that, but look at him, who could say no to him when he ask you with his little angelic eyes and smile, just look at him, he's so cute even when his hands are all over her. f**k. I need to get drunk."

Just then, Cindy walked past us pushing people away. Jennifer tried to call her but she wouldn't look back, Emily popped up out of nowhere, she stood next to Jessica and both of them began to do shots like there is no tomorrow, one after the other. Jennifer and I looked at each other, totally confused.

"So, I go get my friend, you go get yours?" She asked, I nodded, before she left I pecked her lips and she giggled when I began to kiss her all over my face, she liked doing that, I laughed when she pushed me away. Aw, she's so cute.

And just then as I look at her walk away, something hit me- not physically., but something inside me. Some strange emotions hit me like waves and then a thought popped in my mind, making my heart beat faster with excitement but quickly sank with guilt.

I didn't want Jennifer to leave.
