[[Rachel's POV]] {{ CHAPTUH ONE: One phone call makes a difference}}
I sat on my bed depressed. Life without Joe.. was.. well.. boring. I was regretting ever fighting with him. He probably deleted me off his contact list I thought. I buried my face in my pillow and screamed. As loud as I could. I then stopped. "I never cheated on you Joseph" I whispered. "I loved you so much". I got up and looked at my Jonafied room. I looked at the posters and the pictures all around my mirror.
Just then my phone rang. "When You Look Me In The Eyes.. tell me that you love me.. everything's alright. When you're right here by my side". I grabbed it making a mental note in my head to change my ringtone. It was our song. I looked at the caller ID and blinked. It was him. Should I answer it? Yeah.. I'll do that. I clicked a button and put it against my ear. "Hello?" I asked. "Uh.. yeah.. Rae. It's Joe. Listen..about that recent fight we had in my dressing room.. It wasn't you, it was me. I was having a bad day" he said. I shook my head. He was apologizing.
"Listen Joe. I'm not ready to get back together. I think we should just be friends" I said with tears in my eyes. I wiped them away. "Rae.. I.. are you sure?" he asked. No. I'm not sure. I need you here. I want you here. I love you. "Yes" I replied. "It's better for both of us". Joe cleared his throat. "O-Oh.. well.. okay then. I hope I didn't hurt you" he said. Yes. Yes you did hurt me. You hurt me alot. "No. You didn't" I lied. "Rae. You're lying. I did hurt you" he said. *CENSORED*. He caught me. "So why'd you ask if you already knew the answer?" I asked him. He sighed. "Rae. I'm really sorry that I hurt you. I never meant to"
I nodded. My tears were drying up. "It's okay Joe. Promise me one thing" I said. I could hear the television in the background. "Anything" he said. I sighed. Hope you mean that. "Promise me that you won't love me anymore" I said. He was quiet. "I can't" he finally said. "I love you and miss you too much to ever forget you. You're on my mind every hour of my life". I bit my bottom lip as the tears started coming again. "Joe, there are alot of beautiful girls out there. Prettier and funnier than me. What do you see in me that's different from the others?". I wanted to ask him that since the first day we went out. I heard Joe listening to Inseparable.
"You're the only girl that really understands me" he said. "You're always there for me when I fall or when I'm not myself". I wiped my tears looking at my cieling. "Joe..." I began. "Shh" he said. "Don't speak" he said softly. "You're the only girl for me, and you'll be the only girl for me" he finished. I shook my head as the tears started rolling down my cheeks. I've never cried this much since my mother died when I was fourteen. "Joe. You wanted me out of your life, and now I am" I said struggling. "Hope you're happy". I messed up my hair then moved my cell away from my ear. "Rae wait! I-". I hung up on him.
Just then someone knocked on my door. "Busy" I said rushing to wipe my tears away. I forced a smile on my face as my father came in. "I got you tickets to a Jonas Brothers concert!" he said with a huge smile. I burst out into tears as he rushed to my bed. "Baby girl, what's wrong?" he asked me with a worried face. "Me and Joe.. we're not together anymore" I said between sobs. He gave me a huge hug. "Oh, baby girl, I'm so sorry. Should I re sell the tickets?" he asked. I freed myself from his grasp. "No.. that's okay. I'll go" I said putting on a weak smile. Just because me and Joe weren't dating doesn't mean I can't see his brothers anymore.
