*Mark*

I was looking at Julie. She wasn't going to forgive me easy. I knew that, but I was just hoping she could give me a bit of hope that we'll get back together soon. I feel even worse when I realised I said that I used to love her and not anymore, which wasn't the truth, cuz I love her more and more each time I'm seeing her and it's hurting cuz I know I can't have her. All I wanted to do was to hold her tight in my arms. Oh how I wish I could turn back time and make sure that me and Jasmine never kissed.
"Mark, just leave okay. I want to be alone and I don't want you near me" I heard Julie tell me taking me out of my thoughts.
"Please, we need to talk, Julie. We can't break-up without trying to arrange our problem. We have to try hard to make it work cuz I can't give you up." I replied.
"You're the problem, Mark. Not me. Now leave or else, I'll make you leave. And you already give up on me when you decided to kiss Jasmine." She added angrily at me. I sighed and got out of her room. I wasn't going to let her go. In no way I was going to give up on her, but maybe now, it was too soon for her to forgive me or Jasmine. I walked out of the house and ran into Chris.
"Hey! What are you doing here?" He asked me.
"I came to see Julie, but it was pointless. She doesn't want to talk to me." I sighed.
"Give her some time. She'll talk to you when she'll be ready. Don't push her. It won't help." He told me putting his hand on my shoulder.
"Yea I know, well now I have to go, so we'll talk later." I replied and walked towards my car. I knew I said I would leave her some time to get over the thing, but I couldn't. I felt that if I didn't do anything to get her back, I will for sure lose her and I didn't want that.

*Jasmine*

Chris entered my room and I smiled. He sat down next to me and held me close in his arms. Somehow, I felt something weird, like if something was bothering him.
"Is everything okay, sweetie?" I asked him.
"Yea, of course. Why would there be something wrong?" He asked back.
"I dunno. I just felt like something is bothering you. Sure, you don't want to talk about it?" I proposed to him.
"No, nothing's wrong. Leslie just got me surprised a little. She cried." He then told me. I didn't quite believe that she was hurting. Even between the walls of her room in the mental institute, she was going to try to get Chris back. I just knew it and I didn't want Chris to go back there.
"Well, I don't believe it. I just think we shouldn't go see her or else, I feel like she'll believe she still can do whatever she wants." I sighed.
"Come on, baby. I doubt it. I wanna help her get better. Don't worry too much." He replied.
"Then go and help her, but I forget I ever existed." I pulled away from him and ran out of my own room.
"Jasmine. Wait up." I heard Chris said. I opened the door and got surprised to see Ben standing there with a huge smile on his face.
"What are you doing here?" I asked him.
"I came to see how you were." He answered as he saw Chris coming down the stairs.

*Ben* "Chris, just leave okay." Jasmine told him.
"Please, Jasmine, can we talk this thing over?" He asked her. Something was wrong between them and even if I knew it was mean, I was quite happy about it. I always liked Jasmine and I knew that if Chris wouldn't have been around, probably we would have gone out together. Maybe my luck was turning.
"Look, Chris. Come back tonight. We'll talk then." She answered him.
"Fine." He sighed and kissed her lightly on the lips and left Jasmine's house.
"What was all this about?" I asked her as she closed the door behind me.
"You know, the usual. It's going to be okay, I guess." She answered me as tears came into view. I held her tight in my arms and dragged into the living room. I didn't know if we were alone or not, but I couldn't help it, I wanted her. She pulled away and I leaned to kiss her, but she backed up on me.
"Sorry, Ben. I can't do this to Chris. I already done it and now, my own sister doesn't want to talk to me. I won't make this mistake twice." She told me.
"But, Chris isn't treating you the way he should be. You would probably be better off without him." I replied.
"Ben, please. Don't push it. I love Chris more than anything and he loves me. Love isn't something perfect and there might be some fights, but we'll get through them." She added.
"Fine. Then I better go. See you around, Jas." I sighed and got up from the couch and walked out of the living. "But, don't forget. If you ever need someone, I'll be there for you." I added before leaving her house at my turn. I just felt that I was going to be able to have her soon. So, I didn't really mind the fact that she pushed me away today.

*Julie*

I was still sitting on my bed. It was starting to get dark and I didn't feel like doing anything. As I looked outside, I remembered what Mark had told me the night we started to go out.

~ Flash Back ~

We had just done it. I wasn't usually that forward, but I couldn't help it. I had wanted him for such a long time.
"I love you, Julie." He whispered in my ear.
"I love you, too, Mark." I replied looking deeply into his eyes.
"I'll never let anyone or anything break-us apart and I'll never ever going to hurt you." He said to me.
"I believe you." I smiled as I kissed him.

~ End Of Flash Back ~

"I was so stupid to have believed him." I said outloud to myself.
