You think I'd stoop so low?

JEREMY'S P.O.V

Of course I wasn't a virgin, but I can't hurt Violet. I see her as a sister and best friend. Even though she's tempting and sexy, it's hell NO. And, I can't cheat on Kyla. She will be hurt real bad. And I don't want it.

Well, I never actually dated before and I guess one might be curious on why and how I wasn't a virgin. Even if I hadn't been in a relationship, girls are always available when I want them, and Violet knows about it. But I can't do that to her, not at all.

She slowly fell asleep in my arms. I made her lie well on the bed. I took my phone and went downstairs. I checked the time, it was some minutes past 7. I walked to my car and drove home. I greeted my parents and head to my room. I had a shower and jumped into my bed. I switched on my phone and saw a missed call from Kyla. I called her back.

"Sweetheart." I called.

"Where were you?"she asked sounding upset.

"What's up with you?" I asked.

"I've been calling you for a long time now and you are just calling back?" she asked.

"What do you mean by that? I just saw a missed call recently. That's why I called you immediately." I said.

"You mean missed calls." she said, stressing the 'calls'.

"No, I saw just one missed call. Maybe my phone was on silent mode." I said.

"Are you kidding me? I called you up to six times and you are saying rubbish?" she asked and I sat up.

"What?" I said, because I was surprised. I saw just one missed call from her.

"So you are just going to deny it?" she asked.

"I'm not denying any... hello... Kyla are you there?" I checked the phone and saw that she already hung up. "What the fuck." I exclaimed. I checked the missed calls again and saw that it was just one missed call from Kyla, so why was she arguing about it? This is so frustrating. Why the hell is she acting this way?

KYLA'S P.O.V

He had the nerve to deny it. First of all, he left our date to meet with Violet because she was supposedly sick. Then he rejected my calls, and had the guts to say I called him just once. How dare he?

I sulked on my bed in tears. Why does he always hurt me? Did I made a mistake of staying here because of him?

The next morning, I woke up feeling sad, remembering last night's events. I had my bath and put on a pink shirt and a purple short skirt. I went downstairs to the dining table and sat down with my hands on my chin. Lorraine brought my breakfast but I wasn't in the mood to eat. It was a boring Saturday.

"What's wrong, Kyla?" she asked feeling my temperature.

"Nothing, just mood swing."I said.

"Ok, have your breakfast before it gets cold." She said and left. I twirled the tea with the spoon. I checked my phone. I wish he would just call me. Why do we always fight? I really miss him.

I managed to sip a little from my tea. The door opened and I turned to see Jeremy, looking handsome in his blue t-shirt and a jean trouser. I dropped the teacup and stood up. He walked to me with his hands in his trouser pocket.

"Babe." I called softly.

"I really don't know what happened yesterday. You were acting really weird over the phone." He said and my countenance changed. I folded my hands.

"I was acting weird?" I scoffed. "I called you six times and you ignored my calls because you were with Violet." I said and he chuckled a bit.

"Is this all because of Violet? How could you be so jealous?"he said and I gasped.

"What? How can you say that?" I asked hysterically.

"It's the truth, Kyla. It shows all over you that you are always jealous whenever I'm with Violet." he said and I was totally consternated.

"I'm not jealous, ok? I just don't trust her. I know she's up to something." I said.

"Blah, blah, blah, you are always saying that Kyla. You are always saying that. Don't you get that she's my best friend? I knew her long before I knew you, so how do you expect me to just neglect her?" he asked angrily.

"I didn't ask you to neglect her or whatever. I know she's your best friend but I'm your girlfriend. Just yesterday you left our date just to be with her." I said and he scoffed.

"That's because she was sick, damn it. Why don't you just stop your stupid paranoia, it's getting on my nerves." he said.

"Ok, fine. Let's say she was sick, fine. But why didn't you pick my calls?" I took my phone and swiped to the call log and showed it to him. "Does this look like just a phone call to you?" I asked and he brought out his phone and scrolled through it, then showed it to me. I saw just a missed call.

"Does this look like six missed calls to you? Did you even bother to think if it was the network or something? I told you my phone was on silent mode. I didn't know how it's on silent mode, anyway." he said.

"How would I know if you didn't delete all my missed calls on purpose?" I asked and I immediately regretted saying that. He couldn't have done that. I looked at him, he was staring at me in surprise. He didn't think I would say such a thing and neither did I.

"Is that how low you think of me? You think I'd stoop so low?"he asked and I saw he was hurt. I couldn't look at him in the eyes. I felt bad for saying such things.

"Babe I'm..." he interrupted me holding out his hand for me to stop.

"I don't want to hear any more degrading words from you." he said and walked away. No, no, no. I ran to him outside. He was already getting in but I held the door of the car.

"Babe, I didn't mean to say that please." I said. He removed my hands from the door and shut it. He ignited the car engine without looking at me. "Babe please." I called but it was of no use. He drove out of the compound. I walked inside. How on earth would I say that? I really didn't mean to say that. I was just angry. Who knows where he might be right now. Maybe it was the network. Was I being paranoid? Am I acting jealous? I really felt bad about what I said to him. I'm so screwed up. I took my phone and walked outside to my car.

"Steve." I called my driver and got into the car. He came in. "Take me to Jeremy's house." I said and he started driving. I can't believe I hurt Jeremy. I was just angry at Violet and I took it out on him. I don't know if I should ignore my instincts and just ignore Violet's tactics.

We got there and I alighted from the car. I ran inside and saw his mum.

"Kyla, you are here."she said with a smile. I walked to her and embraced her. We refrained. "How are you doing?" she asked.

"Fine mum. Where is J?" I asked curiously.

"You look worried, is everything alright? Did you two have a fight?" he asked.

"Yes, and I might have said something bad to him out of anger. I need to apologize to him." I said and made to go upstairs.

"He isn't at home." she said and I stopped and turned to her.

"Where is he?" I asked.

"I don't know. He didn't say anything while leaving." she said and I quickly dialed his number. It rang but he didn't pick up. "What happened?"she asked.

"He's not picking." I said and wiped my already wet eyes. I dialed his number again and again but he wasn't picking. "Pick up the damn phone." I muttered.

"Calm down, dear. I'm sure everything will be fine. Have you had breakfast yet?" she asked

"No." I said.

"Why don't you join me in the dining table and eat something. He's just angry, he'll come to terms with you."she said.

"I'm not going to eat anything until he talks to me. I'll wait for him."I said sat down on a sofa. I dried my tears with my arms.

Where could he be right now.
