Chapter 33

"Wait, what?" Miles asked me completely astonished. My guess is that he probably doesn't believe me. He probably thought that it would take me weeks and maybe even months to finally leave Kyle and choose him. But after what Miles just told me, maybe he is right after all.

Kyle is a complete and utter dick who doesn't care about anybody but himself. "I want to be with you," I said once again but this time slowing my words down so he could completely understand.

"Are you serious Jemma?" Miles asked me. "Yes, Miles. I am 100% sure. I want to be with you. I can't stand to be with Kyle anymore. He isn't right for me. And I hate that it took me this long to notice that I truly don't belong with him. And that I belong with you. So I want to be with you from now on." I said.

"Jemma, you have no idea how happy you just made me," Miles said smiling. He rested his forehead against mine before kissing me. "Jemma, since we are doing this. I want to tell you something. It's pretty important." Miles said.

"Yeah, sure," I said happily. I was a little concerned about what he was going to tell me. Maybe he was still sleeping with some girl. No, I shouldn't be thinking that. I should trust him. He told me that he truly wants to be with me, so I shouldn't doubt him.

He has changed. I know he has. I can tell. "Jemma. This is super hard for me to say. But that doesn't change the fact at all. I'm just not used to saying it." Miles said.

"Miles, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to. I know it's important to you, but I don't want you to tell me something that you don't want to. You can tell me later if you have to." I said.

"No, I need to tell you. No, I need to tell you." Miles said.

"Go ahead," I said taking his hand into mine hoping that it would make him calmer. Miles took a deep breath. "Jemma, you mean so much to me and for these last few days, I've noticed how much I care about you and how badly I want to be with you. So, I've been thinking a lot about this and I've been wanting to tell you this all day long. Jemma I'm..." Miles said but my phone went off.

"I'm sorry," I apologized before reaching down to my purse and taking out my phone. "It's my mom," I said before clicking the answer button. "I'm sorry." I mouthed.

Miles nodded letting me know it's okay. "Hey, mom!" I said cheerfully. "Hey, baby! How are you?" My mother asked me. "Good, I'm actually out right now. Can I call you later?" I asked her hoping to get off the phone as soon as possible to get back to the conversation with Miles.

I know he had something important to tell me and I hated that my mom called me and interrupted us. I would have no answered but I know she would get concerned if I didn't answer.

"Yeah sure sweetheart. But who are you out with?" My mother asked me. "Kyle, mom. He wanted to take me on a date. But we are kinda busy. So I will call you back later. I love you." I said. "Okay, sweetheart. I love you too. And don't forget to use protection!" my mother said before hanging up.

I chuckled. I quickly put the phone back into my purse then turned to Miles. "So, what did you want to tell me?" I asked him."It's nothing. Don't worry about it." Miles said before starting the car up once again and going back onto the highway.

"Miles, you said it was important. I want to know." I said. "Jemma, it doesn't really matter." Miles said irritated. "What is wrong?" I asked him. "You just said you wanted to be with me! You wouldn't even tell your mother who you were with." Miles said.

"I'm sorry. I didn't think. But that's not what I was asking. What were you trying to tell me?" I asked him once again. "It doesn't matter now. Just leave it. Can we just go to the restaurant now?" Miles asked me.

I really wanted him to tell me what he was wanting to tell me. But I didn't want to push him to tell me and make him upset. He seemed pissed off enough right now especially since I had just told my mother I was out with Kyle which wasn't true.

"I'm sorry I told my mother that I was out with Kyle. It was just the first thing I thought of. I didn't think and I am truly sorry." I said in a low voice completely ashamed of myself.

"I didn't mean to upset you," I said adding to my apology. "Look Jemma. We have a lot to talk about. I don't want to go into this relationship with a blind eye. I really care about you but I won't get hurt because you aren't ready for this. I get that you want to be with me, but maybe you aren't actually ready to tell people." Miles said.

"No, that's no true. It was a simple mistake." I said quickly. "Look, let's just get to the restaurant to discuss all of this," Miles said.

Great, I fucked everything up...
