An Unexpected Love

Brittany’s POV

I giggled as Ashley started poking me in the sides when we were walking down the endless staircase.

“Ashy!” I squealed.

“Your laugh is more beautiful in person.” I felt the blush creep up my neck and face. We made it to the end of the staircase and he pushed me to the wall, kissing me deeply. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back. He pulled away. “I love you. So, so much.”

“I love you too.” I buried my face into his shoulder, and I felt him go into my hair. “I missed you. Too much.”

“I know now what it’s like for the others to be away from their girls.” I grabbed him tighter, remembering the day they left. That had been hard for all of us.

“Hey guys! What did they do to your hair, Ashley?’ I felt Ashley look up, and I smirked into his shoulder when the guys started laughing.

“Yeah, yeah, it’s real funny. This one is lucky I love her.” He poked me and I jumped, squealing and then glaring in his direction, sticking my tongue out.

“He looks like a clown, and you look like you made out with a clown.” I blushed and attempted to wipe Ashley’s makeup off my face. “Did you tell her what happened at the bar yet, Ash?’ I saw Ashley glaring at Jake.

“I was going to wait until after the show, thanks.” Jake held his hands up.

“Sorry. I didn’t know.”

“What happened at the bar?” Ashley sighed and went to run his fingers in his hair, but forgot it was tied on top of his head. He gave a frustrated sigh and began to undo it.

“We had a…unexpected…visitor.” I narrowed my eyes. He got the first braid out, and that part of his hair was wavy.

“Who?”

“A blonde bimbo was trying to flirt with me. She sat on my lap and…well…I got a very involuntary kiss that night.” My eyes widened. By now, he had half the braids out, and had stopped taking them out as he was simply tugging on his hair, judging my reaction. I slapped him, and felt the tears prick my eyes.

“How could you,” I whispered. “How could you?! You kiss a girl at the bar, and then you have the audacity to sit there and pledge your fucking love for me in my fucking interview? What the hell?!” He just stood there was a shocked look on his face, slowly reaching up to touch his cheek. I turned around and stormed off, ignoring the fact I heard someone behind me, because I knew who it was. He was always there for me, and, for some odd reason, I had felt close to him from the beginning. I stopped and turned around, hugging him tightly and crying.

“Brittany…”

“Why Jinxx? Why would he do this to me?!” He hugged me back and started to lightly run his fingers through my hair.

“He didn’t tell you who she was because he doesn’t want to scare you. That’s why he said ‘blonde bimbo’ and why he also didn’t go into detail.” Scare me? Blonde bimbo? Wait…blond hair…who am I scared of that has blonde hair…

“Julia,” I gasped and looked at Jinxx. He hesitated, and then nodded slightly. I felt more tears fall from my eyes. “I screwed up. I gotta fix this, I have to.” I pulled away from Jinxx and started walking, but quickly turned around again. “Thank you, for always being there for me, Jinxx.” He nodded and smiled. I turned around and ran back to where I left Ashley, who was sitting on the floor with a blank stare. The others saw me coming, and moved out of the way in time for me to hug him tightly. I got no reaction.

“He isn’t reacting to anything. I think you shocked him.” I ran my finger along his cheek where I slapped him.

“I’m so, so sorry, Ashley. You should have just said it was her from the start,” I whispered. I faintly heard Jinxx shooing the others away, and I saw Ashley’s eyes focus on me for a second, and then unfocus again. I moved slightly closer. “Answer me, please,” I said, then pressed my lips to his. Slowly, he started to kiss me back. His arms wrapped around me tightly, as if he wasn’t ever going to let me go. I pulled away slowly.

“Brittany,” I held my hand up.

“I don’t want to hear it. I know you had your excuses for not telling me it was her, but I’m a big girl, I can handle it.” He nodded.

“I’m sorry. You’re right. I should have told you.” I smiled.

“Am I forgiven for slapping you?” He scoffed.

“As if I didn’t deserve it.” I giggled lightly. Suddenly, we both heard banging footsteps down the stairs, as if someone was moving very fast, running even. Avery appeared, tears fresh in her eyes. She spotted us, and quickly came over.

“Can I…can I talk to Brittany quickly?” Ashley nodded and I stood up just as more footsteps could be heard.

“Avery?” It sounded like CC. Avery quickly grabbed my hand and pulled me away. When we were out of ear shot, she broke down.

“Avery, Avery what’s wrong?” She shook her head and simply showed me her phone. I looked at it, and I felt anger rise up.

“I-I didn’t know w-what to d-do, so I ran a-a-away.” She started to cry harder. I hugged her tightly.

“It’s going to be ok.” Ashley came over, CC right behind him. “CC, go.”

“Why?”

“Just go!” CC slowly walked away, and when I was sure he was gone, I handed Avery’s phone to Ashley. “It’s her.”

“She did say CC was first. This must be her way of getting us since we won’t leave you alone, Britt.” At those words, I knew what I had to do. I knew I wasn’t going to like it.

“Leave me, then.” Avery and Ashley looked at me like I was crazy.

“No,” Ashley said firmly. I sighed.

“I’m not going to ruin everybody else’s lives!”

“Good choice, Brittany.” I saw someone behind Ashley. Blonde and red hair, same as the last time I saw her.

“Julia,” I spat out. “Why are you doing this?”

“Because you ruin everything in my life! I wanted him, but you had to go flaunting yourself like a fucking slut!” I felt Avery stiffen up beside me. She tried to get out of my grip, but I held her tightly.

“I didn’t flaunt myself! I had a boyfriend for fucks sake!”

“You should have stayed away from mine then,” she hissed. I threw my hands up.

“It’s been years! Let it go!”

“Never!” Suddenly, she jumped at me, shoving me into the wall. “Remember this?” She slapped me, and then started hitting me. All I could do was cower. I couldn’t find the strength to fight back.
