Forgotten

Chapter Seventeen

I DEDICATED THIS TO 'whydoyouwanttoknow' SPONTANEOUSLY, because she's been so supportive and loved this story. So thankyou it means alot :D

Jessie's POV.

A few days have passed and Dann'y came out his room but he's always with Mark. I avoided the two of them even more now because I don't like the feeling of jealously burning in my stomach.

I think back to the conversation I over heard the other day...

-----------------

I walked upto my room after leaving my Mum and Glen to watch the movie, which was boring me. I was about to open my door then I heard,

"What does Rose or Glen know?" Mark asked.

"Glen knows nothing and I feel so bad for not telling him anything. Rose doesn't know much, I was going to tell her but couldn't do it, I-" Danny says but then a noise banged downstairs which stopped me from hearing the rest.

Danny's voice cracked as he said, "I'm sure that's ended everything"

I heard footsteps coming upstairs so I quickly snuck in my bedroom.

-----------------

I wanted to know what had ended, I don't care what it is and I want to know why Danny and Mark have got so close.

We were bestfriends but then I had to go and mess it all up but forgetting everything about him. Then to top it off I had innapropiate dreams about him and don't remember anything about him.

My life is messed up.

I walk downstairs, hearing the rain hit the windows around me. I don't think it will ever stop raining. I got in the room and sat down furthest away from Danny, I looked around the room at the people sat around me.

Glen has suddenly become a lot quieter recently around Danny.

Danny is sat next to Mark, playing with his thumbs whilst Mark flicks through the TV channels. He looks...ill? His hair is no longer bouncy and up because it's messy and flattened, he is much paler than usual if that's possible and his beautiful brown eyes seem hollow.

This wasn't the Danny that I had fallen for in such a short period of time, this wasn't the Danny I knew two weeks ago. This is a new Danny but I still love him, even though he will never love me back. Not even as a friend anymore, not since that kiss.

I feel my face go red when I re-think that moment, wishing to re-live it. I close my eyes, maybe I should get some sleep and have another dream? No I can't keep encouraging myself because it will only make things worse.

"You okay Jessie?" I hear Danny ask from across the room.

"Hm" I mumble keeping my eyes shut and starting to feel sick.

"Are you sure?" His irish accent asks from beside me, making me jump. I look up to meet his chocolate brown eyes staring at me, concerned. "You look like sh*t"

"Wow thanks" I mutter shutting my eyes again.

"When was the last time you slept properly?" He asks taking in the bags under my eyes.

I shrug even though I do know when I last slept properly. It was the night before I kissed him, every night since then has been full of dreams...

All I seem to do lately is lie to him and I feel bad. I shouldn't because they're all keeping something from me, some sort of secret.

"You should still try and sleep" He says edging closer to me.

I'm longing for him to wrap his arms around me and let me sleep there. But that will never happen again.

"What does it look like i'm trying to do?" I ask a little to harshly.

I hear him get up and walk upstairs whilst mumbling, "Sorry for trying to help"

"I'll go" Mark says and follows him upstairs.

There's that jealousy again, f*ck.

"Daniel's right, Jess" My mum says

"Fine" I snap and walk upstairs. I get outside my door and that's when I hear it...

"Dan calm down, It'll all work out" Mark says in a comforting voice.

"What if it doesn't?" Danny says, I can tell by his voice that he's crying, I then hear him mumble something that sounds a lot like "she's never going to remember me"

Wait, why were they talking about me? Am I the reason for Danny crying? Why would I be the reason that he's crying? Oh yeah, bestfriends. Duh...

I sneak back in my room without being heard.
