Hold Me (A Jason McCann Love Story)

Confusion

Abigail: But if you feel how I feel, confusion can cause way to doubt.

Jason: Meaning..?

Abigail: (Laughs) Jason, I'm utterly in love with you.

Jason: I told you not to do that Abigail..

Abigail: I don't understand why.

Jason: Abby... I'm just not that person. Please don't.

Abigail: Okay Jason (Starts to walk away)

Jason: Stop. Don't act like that.

Abigail: (laughs) I'm just falling back. Nothing personal (leaves)

JASONS POV

I'm not trying to hurt Abigail. I'm really not. If I could love her, I would. But why would I make her love a criminal like me? I'm going to end up hurting her anyway with my bad temper and I'm not trying to do that. She's cool and all and she's someone I would've went for if I was still the same guy I used to be

I decide to go downstairs and hang out with the guys. They all stare at me. I figure they know what happened.

I sit down. "What?"

"What happened?" Alex asks

"Nothing. It wasn't anything."

"So why'd she leave crying?" North chimes in. I didn't know she was crying... She didn't seem hurt at all. She was simply "falling back."

I put my face in my hands shortly before running my fingers through my hair. "She told me she loved me." I finally admitted.

The room was filled with silence. Five other guys say in the room and no one had anything to say. I got up and turned around to leave but before I even got to take a step, Alex decides to talk.

"Why didn't you tell her you love her too?"

"Because I don't."

"Is that what you tell yourself?"

I turned back around to face him. "What the hell are you talking about?"

"Forget it." He stand up and walks away.
