Dusk 'til Dawn-George Shelley Fanfiction

Chapter 46

I kept my head down as I walked in his direction, trying not to make eye contact. I could see out of the corner of my eye he was watching me intently, clutching a half-empty beer bottle in his hands.

Hesitantly, I lifted my head up and came to a halt. I looked in every place but his eyes.

"Hi" I half-smiled, half-frowned, looking down at the floor.

"Err...hey?" He replied, probably shocked at the fact I was actually communicating with him.

"I err...I think we should talk. Outside?" I asked. He nodded.

He lead the way and I followed. My heart was thumping, forcing itself into my chest, my hands were shaking slightly and mouth was growing drier and drier. I took a quick swig of my drink and then put it down, and followed George's direction again.

The garden was filled with fairy lights surrounding every tree. It was beautiful. George sat down on a bench under a tree and looked up, expecting me to sit down next to him, which I did. We were silent for a while.

"...I didn't think you'd want to talk to me..." He replied, confused.

I shrugged my shoulders, shaking my head.

"It's you George. Of course I want to talk to you." I admitted, angry at myself that whenever he was around he had pure control over me. Even though he didn't know it.

"Really?" His eyes widened.

I nodded in return. A look of sheer contentment appeared on his face.

"you look so different. Your hair looks amazing" he told me, making me smile. The butterflies were swarming around in my stomach. But I knew George and I wouldn't be friends for long, if you could even describe us as that now.

"thank you." I smiled.

We were both silent again.

"George?" I asked.

"Yeah?"

"Liv told me."

"Liv told you what?" He gave me a weird look.

I breathed out.

"I know you didn't cheat on me with Abi." A tear trickled down my cheek.

He looked startled.

"What?" He asked.

"I'm so sorry I accused you of something you didn't do, I'm a horrible person. It's just, Abi said you did and she showed me all of these text messages and photos and in the spur of the moment I thought she was telling the truth." I sobbed.

"It all made sense to me. Why would you be going out with me when you could have somebody like Abi? She's smart and funny and gorgeous and I'm just me. I can't go up against someone like Abi. And to this day I still don't understand why you were with me instead of Abi, but I owe you a massive apology. You're a much better guy than I thought you were and you deserve a girl much better than me. And I know you've probably met some amazing girl this past 2 months I've been gone, and you deserve it so much because you're the most amazing person on the planet. And I totally understand if you hate me for falsely accusing you, because I know I hate myself for losing you. And..." He cut me off.

I felt the warm sensation of George Shelley's soft lips on mine again. The type of kiss I'd so missed. I kissed back, my hands roaming his brown curls. And then I remembered. I pulled apart.

"I'm so sorry George, I can't." Another tear escaped my eyes.

"what? Why not?" He asked.

"You're gonna hate me if I tell you." I admitted.

"Just tell me" he told me forcefully.

"I'm seeing somebody." It came out.

"I met him in LA, and one thing lead to another and..."

"You're seeing somebody?" He cut me off again. I nodded, my cheeks soaked in my own tears.

"I can't believe this." He sunk into the bench.

"I'm so sorry. This is such a mess." I wiped my cheeks. He nodded.

"I guess I can't blame you. I shouldn't have just let you go. I thought leaving you be would be what's best for you but I can't be without you. It's too hard. What was I thinking? You're the most beautiful girl in the world of course you would have met somebody knew by now." He threw his head in his hands.

"and the worst part is...I'm still completely and hopelessly in love with you." He admitted, looking into my eyes. My eyes widened.

"you what?"

"There. I said it. I love you. I always will. I thought I would be able to just get over you but I can't. I love you too much for that. And I know the hardest thing to come to terms with is the fact that you probably don't feel the same way." He replied.

"Don't say that." I looked to the ground.

"Don't say what?" He asked hopelessly.

"Don't say I don't feel the same way. You know I do." I cried.

"How could I not? I love you more than I ever thought I could. And I hate myself for it. I hate the fact that I love you more and more everyday. I hate the fact that when I'm not around you I feel incomplete. I hate the fact that I basically live off your love. But most of all, I hate the fact that without you, I'm nobody." I told him.

With that, I stood up and walked off, wiping my soggy cheeks. But then I felt a hand pull me back around to be met with George's glimmering eyes.

"Then don't be without me." He stated into my eyes and then smashed his lips against mine.

I knew it was wrong.

I knew I was being a horrible person towards Tom.

I knew I was basically cheating, which was something I vowed I would never do.

I knew I would regret all of this in the morning

But I also knew that I wouldn't.
