《Mine.》Chapter 16
Advertisement
After Dylan left I needed to see Octavia, he really ticked me off, she's mine. That's also the reason I wasn't thinking when I dipped my head down into her neck like that, her moans were everything. I could listen to them all day. I didn't want her thinking I wasn't going to stop so I told her to make a choice. When she did I was slightly frustrated, but even more so when I seen who called her.
Why did she have a heart right there? Why did she name him her baby?
The fact that she still answered the call even when I told her we were talking, angered me. How dare she choose another guy over me. I tried to calm down, thinking it's only her best friend. But, when I could completely hear the whole conversation, it was another story. I wanted to just claim her as mine already, it just wasn't the time.
When the phone call ended I knew I couldn't contain my anger. Jake was coming to pick her up, they were going to be together, alone, I hated that.
"You know it's rude to answer your phone when someone's talking to you." I growled as I gripped her hips pushing her against the shelf again.
She tensed up at that which made me instantly loosen my grip. I seriously have to learn to control my anger, I just can't when it comes to her. My features softened as I looked at her. Her eyes are so beautiful. People say brown colored eyes are just plain, normal, nothing special.
Except when I look into hers, I see everything that's special and more.
"I have to go, I will call you tonight, answer." I stated with authority, which I knew had an effect on her.
She stared at me with a softness to her eyes and a hint of shock. I kissed her head, letting my lips linger there for a little, until I turned and walked out of the aisle. As I made my way out of the front door to my car I couldn't help but, wonder how Octavia feels about me. Does she think I just want her for a night, that was me, but, now I wasn't so sure she's so much more. I drove down familiar streets and remembered childhood memories of mine.

The park, I made my first friend there and bestfriend till this day. Carter James, he wasn't a very popular kid so he used to get bullied a lot. I was raised right and knew what the kids were doing were very ignorant. So I did something more ignorant and decided to beat all of them up. When I seen them beating him up at the park one day.
After that we were inseparable and had the tightest bond throughout high school. I remember everyone wanted to be as close as we were but, it just wasn't going to happen.
I trust Carter with my life.
Once I made it to my house I parked in the long driveway and got out, turning the car off. It hasn't even been an hour and I already miss her.
"Hey man where were you? Weren't you supposed to come back like 30 minutes ago?" Carter came out of my house, where he basically lives, a confused expression on his face.
He handed me a beer which I gladly took, opening it up and taking a drink, "Got caught up."
Great now he's going to know, I didn't want him to know about Octavia yet. Or else Carter would just push me to be with her more despite my insecurities.
He raised an eyebrow, "Caught up?"
We walked inside and sat in the living room as I flicked through the channels, placing my beer on the table.
"Yeah don't worry about it, everything went smoothly."
My eyebrow twitched a bit as I said this, shit. That's how he always knows I'm lying, it's stupid every time I lie to him it does this. Like I have no idea what the point is.
"You fucking liar." he punched my arm, "What were you doing, why are you lying to me?" he pouted and crossed his arms childlike.
I sighed, might as well tell him or else he'll beg till I break. I began to tell him everything about Octavia. From the first night I saw her to how I kissed her beautiful neck in the shop.

"Oh, so you're inloveeee." he said drawing out the 'v' and 'e' sound.
My cheeks heated, I couldn't love Octavia it was too soon, I did care for her really deeply.
I quickly smacked the back of his head, "No you dipshit."
"Yeah, right." he said, rolling his eyes.
"I'm telling the truth." I stated.
"Mhm." he hummed, only to mock me, maybe he was right
I was very slowly, falling for her.
"And the realization hits...." he says matter of factly staring at my face with a smirk.
"Oh, shut it." I said, trying to hide a smile.
•••
It had been a couple hours since I've gotten home and I've been doing some paper work, in my office. I hadn't even noticed that it was dark out until I got up to use the restroom. I saw my phone and remembered I told Octavia I'd call her, my nerves suddenly set in. I opened my phone and clicked on her contact. I know I only gave her my number but, truth be told I already had hers.
I asked her dad for it, 'in case I couldn't contact him' little does he know. She was quick to pick up which had me grinning.
"Hello princess."
"H-hi." She stuttered, I quickly learned she did this around me when she was nervous.
"What are you doing?" I asked her, remembering Jake was supposed to pick her up, which angered me.
I heard voices in the back and some shushing, this made me even more irritated by the second. Who is she with? When she didn't answer me, it only got me angrier.
"Octavia." I said, with authority seeping through my voice.
I heard her gasp and faintly say from her failed attempt of covering the phone, "You guys quiet, I can't hear, I'm on the phone."
I heard voices, it sounded like three or four maybe to be exact. Who the hell was she with? Then I heard some more shuffling and what sounded like a door being closed.
"Octavia." I said, again letting my anger be shown, I couldn't help it at this point.
"I-I'm s-sorry my friends w-wouldn't shut up." she squeaked, nervously, I could just imagine her cheeks a rosy tint.
Snap out of it, god I'm supposed to be mad at her and I can't even do that, "Who are you with?" I asked sternly.
"J-just some friends." I was about to answer when I heard the thing that made my blood boil.
"Yo Octavia, come out of the bathroom, I need to go or at least let me in so I can watch you." A guy voice said, very flirty and cockily.
I heard her gasp and say, "Jacob!"
I ended the call and punched the wall that was closest to me, so hard it went through. I couldn't think straight I was so mad. My anger has always blinded me. No matter what it was, if it got me mad my anger would only build from there. I quickly changed out of my business suit and threw on a black shirt with some dark jeans, not caring about my bloody hand.
I put my shoes on quickly and grabbed my keys, heading for the door, "Hey man where you-" Carter started, but, I lifted my hand to shut him up.
"Not now, I'll text you." I said, leaving the house going to my car.
Octavia will be the death of me, she already has me going insane.
