《Smile》Sixty four

"Hurry I have to pee." Vanessa groaned.
"Shhh be patient." I glanced at her through the mirror.
Jasmine held her burger up to my lips and I took a bite keeping my eyes on the road.
"How come she gets to have a bite and I don't?" Vanessa asked from the back seat.
"Because I'm her baby." I smiled.
Jasmine scoffed and handed her burger back to Vanessa who smirked and took a bite. "Hah."
I rolled my eyes and continued to Jasmine's house. "Remember that next time you-" I stepped on the breaks hard as a car flew past a red light. "That car was going fast as fuck," I rolled my eyes looking at the truck. "My baby in the car watch where you're going!"
Jasmine chuckled as Vanessa hummed. "Are you calling me or Jasmine your baby?" She leaned forward. "Or are you talking about your actual baby?"
Oop...all of the above?
"My actual baby of course." I reached over and rubbed Jasmine's stomach.
"So that kind of counts as you calling me baby too." Jasmine smirked.
I groaned and snatched my hand away from Jasmine's stomach. "I hate both of you."
"Love you too." They said simultaneously.
I chuckled pulling into Jasmine's driveway causing Vanessa to whoop.
"About fucking time, " she leaned forward." Keys keys keys-"
"Under the mat." I said killing the engine.
She jumped out of the car and ran to the door bursting through it. Jasmine and I laughed climbing out of the car.
"So Dino," Jasmine closed the door and locked it after we walked in. "What's going on between you and Nessa?"
I shrugged. "Nothing much."
"Really? Looks like your moving on to me." She smirked slightly.
I rolled my eyes and walked into the kitchen. "Well, I wouldn't be moving on if you didn't reject me."
"Y/n really, we're still on this?"
"Duh." I turned to her.
"I'm doing this for you."
"No your doing this for you because you're scared."
"Yeah I'm scared of you getting your heartbroken and I'm scared of you distancing yourself because our relationship ended poorly."
"No Jazzy-"
"Dammit Y/n just let me hurt you a little bit so you can find the right one."
I shook my head. "You have to realize Jazzy that feelings aren't one-sided, we have feelings for each other, you don't just have feelings for me so you pushing me away isn't fair and you forcing me to move on isn't fair."
She looked down. "Y/n I just don't-"
"Oh look you two are having a talk, I actually think this is the perfect time for us all to talk." Vanessa cut in walking downstairs as I rolled my eyes.
This is like having your ex, baby momma, mistress, and wife all in the room at the same time.
"Talk about what Nessa?" I walked towards the island and took a seat on the stool.
Vanessa threw her arm over Jasmine's shoulder and they both walked to the other side of the island sitting across from me.
"You guys are confused about a lot of things so why not put everything out on the table and solve these issues."
Jasmine sighed and looked at me. "Go ahead Y/n."
I scoffed. "I'm not confused about anything...other than who I want to be with and having sex with you Nessa and my feelings for you but then again I'm not...Ugh."

"Wait, your afraid to have sex with V?"
"Really?"
"Sorry."
Vanessa chuckled. "Okay first, let's solve the problem between you and Jasmine."
I crossed my arms and shook my head. "There isn't a problem."
Jasmine rolled her eyes. "Y/n this is one of the reasons I know being with you is the wrong choice."
"What?"
"Your immaturity and the way you like to ignore and avoid every problem. I know that if one small incident happened in our relationship that would be the end of us."
Awh man she's right.
I uncrossed my arms and nodded slowly. "I know but, that's just the way I cope, ignore and forget."
She nodded and reached out grabbing my hand. "Trust me Dino I know and that's why I usually don't have a problem with it but, our relationship wouldn't work if I just let you avoid everything," she bit her lip. "But it's not just your immaturity, it's also because I know you and I know when you have feelings for someone."
"Huh?"
She looked at Vanessa. "You want me but you want Vanessa too and at the end of the day one of us is gonna end up hurt and well, I volunteer myself."
"Well that's not exactly fair." Vanessa frowned.
I nodded at Vanessa and scoffed. "Thank you, Jazzy do you really think me knowing your hurting wouldn't hurt me?"
"I know it'll hurt you but, it's better than a broken heart."
"Can I say something?" Vanessa asked and Jasmine nodded. "Y/n might be immature but, you're stubborn as fuck Jasmine-"
"Mhmm."
They both glared at me and I shrunk back.
"Sorry."
"Not only are you stubborn but, I can't help but feel like your being selfish deep down."
"I'm looking out for Y/n that's not selfish."
Vanessa shook her head. "One, Y/n's pain is your pain, you don't want her to end up hurt because then you will too," I looked at Jasmine who frowned and looked down at the island. "And well two, you may be protecting Y/n's heart but you're mainly protecting your heart because all three of us know that you'd never hurt Y/n, in a relationship it would all be her fault if something happened-"
I scoffed. "Hey that's true but fuck you."
Vanessa glanced at me quickly. "You're scared to remember?"
"Ohh shit." Jasmine snickered as I smacked my lips.
Well, now I won't talk unless talking to.
Assholes.
"Anyways, you're protecting yourself from the pain, Jasmine you want Y/n but you don't want the baggage that comes with her, you don't want to be hurt and that's completely understandable. So, all you have to do is figure out if you'll be willing to help her grow and risk your heart getting broke or be a hypocrite and avoid the problems by letting her go."
I looked at Jasmine who was already looking at me. Looks like it's time for me to take my first steps towards maturity.
"Honestly Jazzy, I don't want half of you and being in a relationship full of fear and mistrust isn't a relationship I want so..." I bit my lip. "I don't think I'd be able to be with you unless you trust me."
She nodded slowly. "Well I guess that I have my answer," she shook her head. "Fuck Y/n it's just that I know if you hurt me I'll never recover and I know that I should trust that you wouldn't hurt me but, I've trusted so many people and I always end up hurt."

"Jazzy I one hundred percent understand so please don't cry with your hormonal ass." She chuckled.
I won't lie, the fact that she doesn't trust me hurts but I get it, we all have problems and past experiences that'll fuck up the way we feel forever and I can't blame her for having trust issues after all the times she's been hurt.
"Right Jay, your reasons are completely reasonable you just can't force her to move on because you're not ready."
Jasmine nodded. "I'm sorry for not being emotionally ready for your love Dino."
I chuckled. "I don't think anybody is ready for all this loving I have."
"Don't speak for everybody."
Jasmine bit her lip and glanced between the both of us before stopping her eyes on Vanessa. "So miss therapist," Vanessa chuckled. "What problems do you have?"
"None." She simply said.
"Bullshit." I scoffed.
"No seriously, I know I want Y/n," Vanessa shrugged. "If she chooses you, Jasmine, it'll suck but I'm a big girl so I'll be able to handle it and if she chooses me I'll be ecstatic but still upset that you can't have the girl you love," she sighed. "At the end of the day I know what I want and I know how I'll feel about any and every outcome, you two just need to figure out the same well, Y/n you need to figure out the same I'm pretty sure Jasmine got it all figured out right?"
"Right." She nodded.
"Wait what do you have figured out?"
"That I'm madly in love with you but, I have to work out my issues and see you work out yours before I'm ready to commit." I sighed.
Man, this is harder than a closeted males dick in the boy's locker room.
"Okay well, what do I need to figure out?"
"If your sure about not being with me." Jasmine shrugged.
Vanessa nodded. "Basically who do you want?"
Both...but I can't have both, can I?
"Jasmine I'll always have feelings for you and Vanessa your amazing..."
"But?" Vanessa hesitated.
I scoffed. "But nothing, I don't know why my heart does what it does when I'm around you but I do know why my heart does what it does when I'm around Jasmine and I know that I'm in love with you-"
"You're in love with me?" Vanessa leaned forward.
"Come on Vanessa I've been in love with you since our first kiss which is why this shit is even more confusing because now I'm positive that I'll never get over you either."
"Oh my God did you hear that?" Vanessa whispered to Jasmine.
Jasmine nodded and smiled softly. "Yeah, she's totally in love with you your so lucky."
"I know right."
Jasmine grabbed Vanessa's hand and they both squealed before looking back at me.
Fuck how could I not be in love with them both?
I chuckled and looked down. "Shit can I just have Summer back?" Jasmine rolled her eyes and Vanessa chuckled. "Look I can't decide so, I think I'll know who I want when I'm actually with them, Jasmine I know that's okay with you because you want me to work on some stuff but Vanessa, is that cool with you?"
She quickly nodded. "Of course it is baby just...don't take forever."
Jasmine let out a deep breath. "Well, I'm happy we could all be adults here and that everything's settled now...right?"
"Right." Vanessa and I said simultaneously.
"Cool, so now on to more pressing matters," Jasmine shook her head. "I know I shouldn't be pushing you towards my quote on quote "competition" but, why the hell are you scared to sleep with her Y/n?"
I groaned. "It's not fear just nerves."
"She doesn't think she'll be good enough." Vanessa rolled her eyes.
"What?" Jasmine scoffed. "Maybe teen Y/n but this Y/n is a fucking God," Jasmine literally shivered. "I mean just look at her and multiply her sexiness by a thousand and then turn that attractiveness into a feeling and then put that feeling into your fucking vagina."
Huh?
"What?"
Vanessa nodded slowly. "I completely get it and now I'm jealous."
"The fuck was there to get? Put the attractiveness in your- huh?"
I was sooo fucking lost?
"Why hell do you think I'm pregnant? Anybody else would've put a condom on but Y/n just has a way of persuading you into things you'd never do and fuck the thoughts that run through my head when she's touching my naked body."
"Fucking do tell." Vanessa leaned in looking intrigued.
Should I be feeling cocky or uncomfortable? Wait how did this conversation- am I getting turned on?
"Well, I'd appreciate it if this conversation just, you know, stopped."
Vanessa chuckled and looked at me. "She's hyping you up like that and you're fucking nervous?"
"Yes."
Well, I won't lie after all the shit Jasmine said I'm kind of ready.
Yes, my body is ready.
Jasmine shrugged and looked at Vanessa. "No lie I'd be nervous to sleep with you too, especially on my own."
"Thank you, that's just too much pressure for my little big buddy."
Vanessa chuckled. "Well would you feel better if-"
Vanessa made eye contact with Jasmine and hummed raising a brow causing Jasmine to smirk slightly.
Jasmine cleared her throat and looked back at me. "I think you'll be fine whenever you two actually decide to do the do."
I nodded slowly not liking the look they were both giving me.
"Can you two stop giving me the Nala look."
"The what look?" Vanessa asked.
"Nala? Lion king? Nala and Simba rolling around in the grass and then Nala giving Simba the look."
"Ohhhhh." Jasmine nodded.
Vanessa shook her head. "So Y/n I think-"
My phone went off and I smiled softly picking up my phone. "Hold up."
I stood and answered the phone before walking into the living room. "Saiyrrrrrr."
"Y/nnnnn."
"How are you doing?"
"I'm great and I haven't seen you in forever and I'm soooo happy that you're going on tour with me."
"Same here," I smiled. "Anyways what's up?"
"Okay so I called because I need you to come to this studio for practice."
I frowned. "Practice?"
She chuckled. "Yes Y/n, we have to practice for the tour, singing and choreography, stuff like that."
"Oh shit yeah okay um, when do you need me?" I glanced behind me when I heard the girls giggle.
"Now would be ideal if your not busy, I'll send you then address yeah?"
I nodded. "Um yeah I'm not busy, I'll be there asap no rocky."
She chuckled. "Cool then I'll see you in a few."
"See ya."
I hung up the phone and sighed walking back into the kitchen.
"Gotta go?" Vanessa asked.
I nodded and walked to the side of the island they were own. "Yup I have to practice for tour um, are you going to stay here Nessa?"
She glanced at Jasmine and nodded. "Yeah, I might spend the night if that's okay with you Jay."
"You know I don't mind."
I frowned glancing between both of them. "You two can't fall in love."
Vanessa chuckled. "What?"
I shrugged. "You two can't fall in love."
Jasmine grimaced. "Too late for that," she leaned over and kissed Vanessa's cheek. "You missed out Y/n."
I rolled my eyes and kissed both of their foreheads before walking towards the door. "Whatever I have a spell on both of you!"
"Damn right you do!" Vanessa yelled.
I chuckled walking out of the house and closing the door behind me. I walked to my car and nodded.
Cool, everything's cool now. Jasmine and I are fine and personally, I'm ready to rearrange Vanessa's guts so...Shits starting to look up.
I sighed climbing into my car. "Fuck, I hope I didn't just jinx myself."

The Girl from the Mountain
Alexandra Bedford is a weapon, a young woman with telekinetic powers capable of leveling entire cities, born to fight in the desolate remains of post-apocalyptic North America. There is only one problem: she may be losing control of her abilities. Sixteen years after a global pandemic devastated the earth’s population, the lines in the old United States have been drawn between the Cheyenne Directorate in Colorado and the New England Alliance on the East Coast. The Directorate, of which Alexandra is a part, is a small but powerful organization dedicated to returning the country to its former glory. However, when a diplomatic mission to the New England Alliance goes wrong, Alexandra finds herself at the center of a bloody civil war. Battles are fought on the old highways and in dilapidated towns and once-great cities. And as the conflict escalates, all of North America faces the threat of being burnt away by nuclear fire. Against this backdrop of war, Alexandra tries to uncover the long-hidden secrets behind the plague, her abilities, and the two men fighting to decide the fate of the United States - Henry Bedford, Alexandra's father and leader of the Directorate, and John Martin, the mysterious figure at the heart of the New England Alliance who may hold the key to everything she seeks. None of this will matter, however, unless Alexandra can prevent the power growing inside her from taking over and consuming the very world she is fighting to save. Author's Notes: I appreciate you taking a look at my novel, The Girl from the Mountain. If you're a fan of post-apocalyptic fiction, military thrillers, and/or cosmic horror, I think you'll enjoy this story. I completed the novel's first draft back in 2011 and made significant changes in 2016. Since then, I've more-or-less sat on the manuscript while working on other projects. Thanks to a bit of prodding, I've decided to send this story out into the wild with some touch-ups and additional revisions. I welcome any comments or criticisms, and I hope you enjoy The Girl from the Mountain!
