Kayleigh's POV
I looked in Eddie's eyes to see if he really meant each and every word he said, he seemed honest but I was not quite sure if I am ready to give him another chance so I told him I will let him know. He agreed to give me some time to think and left my apartment. Honestly I am not sure if I am ready to give him another chance, I just met him last night and also I was pretty much hurt with what he said to me in the morning. The only reason I let him in was because he bought me food and the entire universe knows that I never say no to food especially burgers! I spent the rest of the day sleeping, I got a couple of texts from Eddie but I didn't bother to revert him. Next morning, I got to work and I saw a bouquet of white roses sitting at my desk with two pairs of curious eyes looking at my way hoping to get all the gossip about Saturday night. I pushed past Daniel and dropped my bag on the desk, "Daniel don't you have any work to do today?" He flashed a devilish smirk and high five-d Samantha, "NoPe, Tell us what happened on Saturday night?" Sam followed up with her question right after Daniel, "Did you have sex?" I sighed and nodded. Daniel just chuckled while Sam squealed in excitement and raided me with questions, "Who was the guy? How did he look? Was he good in bed? I bet the flowers are from him!" They badgered me a little so I sighed, "It was Eddie!" They looked at me like they had seen some ghost, Daniel got furious and walked back to his desk before I could even here the end of it. He is like my brother and he hates Eddie because he broke my heart but there is nothing, Sam joined me as I tried to convince Daniel, "Listen to me first Dan please, you don't know the whole story!" He glared at me, "fine then tell me your end of the story and I will decide whether I want to talk to you or on!" I took a deep breath and trying to recall everything I can from the weekend, "So I don't remember much from Saturday night, the last thing I remember is that I walked over to the dance floor to dance and after that I woke up on Eddie's bed with him sleeping next to me. I was getting dressed when Eddie stirred in his sleep and thought I was one of his one night stand so he asked me to get out and I left from there as fast as I could! Few hours later he showed up at my doorstep with FOOD-" they raised their eyebrow and their face clearly read 'Don't you dare say I let him in because he had food!' I gulped in fear but I chose to tell them truth, "I shut the door on his face but he won't leave, besides I was too hung over to cook so I let him in! He apologised for his behavior in the morning and asked me if we could start over but I haven't responded to his calls or messages that's why those flowers are sitting on my desk!" They both were shocked but they pretended to think about it for a minute or two and after that Sam spoke, "Kay you do realise right that he only apologised for kicking you out and not for what he did to you in the past!?" I looked down at my feet and nodded, "I know and I have no plans to get back with him." Soon we ended our conversation about Eddie and got back to work, when I left from work in the evening I saw Eddie waiting by his car outside my office. I tried to pretend that I didn't see him and walked away but he held my hand, "Kay I know you saw me!" I let out a breath, "What do you want?" he looked hesitant for a moment but his cold self was back, "You didn't answer my calls or messages so I came by to pick you up for dinner!" I glared at him, "I don't remember you asking me out for dinner and I don't want to go out with you." In seconds he clenched his jaw and before things get worse I told him straight, "Eddie Saturday night was a mistake, I was too drunk to recognise you in the club and I don't remember anything that happened between us!" I walked away leaving a stunned Eddie behind. If my instincts are right and he really wants me then I am sure he will try to pursue me. I got back home, prepared dinner and sat down to watch game of thrones when my door bell rang. I mentally rolled my eyes thinking it is Eddie but to my surprise it was Jay, "Jay is everything alright?" he let himself in and sat on the couch feeling at home, "Yeah, I just thought of checking up on you!" I chuckled, "Join me for dinner, if you haven't eaten yet!" We ate dinner and chatted for few hours, something about Jay seemed very unusual like something was bothering him. Jay took out a tub of chocolate ice cream from the freezer when the door bell rang again, Jay was already standing so he said he will get it. He opened the door and I heard Eddie's voice "What are you doing here?" Jay answered or more like asked in a serious tone, "I should ask you the same!?" I walked over to the door, he looked at me and then looked back to Jay, "I came to talk to Kayleigh!" Jay let him in and watched him suspiciously. He stood in front of me while Jay walked over to couch sitting comfortably, grabbed the ice cream tub and watched Edward intensely, "Can I talk to you privately?" I looked back at Jay, he didn't react so I took it he wants to hear our conversation, "You can talk in front of Jay and besides I made it pretty clear to you in the evening so there is nothing left, or is there?" his eyes held a mixture of sadness and anger, "Kayleigh I am really willing to do everything for you, please be with me." Jay stood beside me, wrapped his arm on my waist still holding the ice cream tub, "Why would she do that, don't you know we are together!" I looked at jay in surprise but quickly masked my surprise with a smile whereas Eddie fumed in anger, "When did that happen?" Jay smirked at him still holding my waist (god this man still hasn't left the ice cream tub, he could have left it on the table no-one was going to eat it), "When it was suppose to happen!" Eddie's jaw clenched, "and you were not suppose to tell me? I am your best friend since childhood for crying out loud!" Jay just shrugged in response which only made him more angry, "Do you even know what this bitch is doing on your back? she doesn't deserve you!" Jay replied in small voice with his voice ever so calm, "That is none of your business my friend, don't you dare call my girlfriend names. Now get out before I do something we both regret!" He looked between us and walked out. I walked after him to close the door and looked at Jay in confusion, "What was that?" Jay chuckled, "I was helping you". He started laughing while I glared at him, "Did you see his face when I told him you are my girlfriend?" I ate a spoonful of ice cream, "yeah, it was a million dollar look." I looked at him once our laughter died, "Is that the reason you came over?" He looked at me with sadness and shook his head, "No, I had no clue you guys are seeing each other AGAIN. I came over to use your company, I was feeling lonely!" I gave him a hug while he asked seeing me sad, "Do you wanna talk about it?" I nodded, "He wants me!" He didn't look surprised, "maybe I had a clue about that!" He became silent for few seconds like he was thinking something and then continued, "I should have seen it coming when he called me on Sunday." I took a deep breath, "Doesn't matter, I can't be with him." I looked at him with concern, "you know right that if we continue this lie, your friendship with Eddie will be at stake! I don't want to come in between you two."
