James:

I got a called from my friends to celebrate the Christmas Eve and countdown of Christmas.

We all drink a lot, I never except that Rose will be there, talking with her friends.

She's still beautiful like the last time I saw her.

When She saw me, she excused herself from them and make her way towards me.

We both indulge ourselves in small talk and drinks after drinks. Both of us were heavily drunk, next things we know is we both end up in bed.

Morning came, When I turned to the other side of the bed, She's already dressed up and thank me for last night. I feel used and hurt, so I stop her, by holding her wrist, and told her, "I'm sorry for what had happened.

The latter replied," Don't you dare said sorry to makes feel like a slut and you an angel. "

James hang his head down in shame while the latter ignored him and dressed up quickly.Just before she went out she told him, "Don't worry, I won't tell her about this and I wish that you don't show up in front of me or near me. "

She then tell him, " You're already in a relationship, so take it as my blessing".

Then, she walked away from him, that's when James feel guilty and he can't keeps his mind off, what happened between him and Rose.

Shaking his thought away, he also got shower and dressed up, when he pick up his phone to check any call or message.

He saw June message and guilt sweeps his heart for sleeping behind his good girlfriend.

James in dilemma whether to chase after Rose or just let be.

His thought were interrupted when a ding sounds comes from his phone.

He searched for his phone and found it in his pocket and directly open the message to see;

June: Merry Christmas, James, Have a nice day.

Seeing the message, he smile and feel warm filling his heart.

Thinking back, he was glad and ecstatic to know that June like him, for who he is not because of his parents money and wealth.

The time he spent with her always makes him realise that happiness can be found within yourself and how we look or think about the things, also she always support him and cheer him up during his exam days or competition whether he lose or win and she'll always dropped by his class whenever she had free time, to go out for lunch because he always forget about it, also giving tips on how to look after his body and health. She's the type of girl that he's been looking in every girls, he met or come across but they all turned out to be a gold digger.

At first, he was angry at June about physical relationship, but now he's understand her better then before, he admires her for the stand up, that she's not going to gives herself away for anyone except her husband likewise she never let's him hold her hand or kiss her but he still love that about it, keeping herself pure. He came to know that, June family are old-fashioned and a very conservative one.

Till today, he didn't heard about her bad character or behaviour from anyone except in school before they dated.

Like a strong wind passing through him, he realised that he's in love with her but after what happened between him and Rose, he doesn't know or didn't want to tell his feelings.

She used to dressed sexily but now she dressed up in a simple way with minimal make up, which bring put her natural beauty and she's looking more beautiful than ever.

But he's June boyfriend and it's not good to look at other girls while his girlfriend is away. She's a ball of sunshine in his dark day's. She always bring the best out of him, so just let it be and focus more on his relationship with June.

Unexpectedly, One day, anger and jealous boil inside him and to have her in possession build up in his mind.

Directly he told her, " About you saying that you had a feeling and love for me, does it still stand? "

Rose looks at him like he grown two heads and calmly replied, " That's in the past, James.I'm sorry, not anymore because I already let you go. "

James: So you mean to say that if I'm not in a relationship, You'll still like and love and become my girlfriend??

Rose: Well that's what I thought before, and I'm way too late, now don't make things difficult for both of us and June.

James: You don't bring June into this, I'm talking about us, you and me also your feeling towards me.

Rose: I can't because June feeling for you is genuine and don't hurt her. So good bye James.

Just as she tried to walked passes him, he immediately hold her and pulled her into his arms and directly kisses her.

Rose struggle for a while and she gives up as she still love him.

Pulling away, James look her in the eyes and said, "I know you still love me, I know, how you feel and broken I was, When you rejected me over and over again, but still your name is still inside me, and I still feel the same towards you that's why I already what had happened before and wanted to start anew."

Rose gasp at his confession but June, is still his girlfriend.

"But we can't be together if you don't breakup with June, because I don't want to be third person and tell me, why did you realize now? "

James sigh and told her what he feels this past month and he didn't want to let her go.

He even told her that he could breakup with June but Rose stop him and tell him, to wait for opportunity to break up with her.

Though Rose said those words, but She still won't back down till She take what June love or like, as a pay back for taking James away from her.
