Labrinth-Still don't know my name

Audrey

He is joking. Yes he is. I know Jake enough to say he can joke at even the oddest times. Serious times you need my best friend to be serious were the best times he chose to make fun. I looked up at him,expecting to see him smirk and then burst out laughing at the funny expression I had on my face, boy he didn't. Okay, maybe he needs a little push; I smiled, still nothing. Okay, I'm getting the creeps now.

"Jake?"

"Your answer ready now?"

"What answer Jakey? Do you realize what you just asked me?"

"Rey! Are you supposed to think about it? It's me, your best friend; we have plans and dreams together. We are meant to be mates. I shouldn't be begging you to have to choose me. I shouldn't be......"

"But we are not mates Jake. I just found my true mate and I felt the bond. I'm his chosen."

"...the villain in this. I shouldn't be the second choice. I shouldn't be the only one fighting for us to still end up tog... What?!! Your true mate?!! You just met him like how many hours ago and you've found your true mate?? You feel the bond? You're his chosen? Can you hear yourself Rey? Should I repeat what you just said to your hearing so you can know how you sound? You sound like you've already thought about this and have made your decision."

"Jake, you know we do not stand a chance of ending up together. He's an Alpha. He won't let me...."

"You have. You've thought about it. You didn't come for us to discuss it, you cane to tell me your decision. You've made up your mind."

"He won't let me go. He'll fight for me. It's the natural instinct of a mate and it's even harder for an Alpha mate."

"What about me,Rey? Our plans? What about us?! It's not even hard for you to just throw us away. What is wrong with you?"

"What is wrong with me? What is wrong with me?? You're asking what is wrong with me?!!  What do you think is wrong with me? What do you think is running through my mind? Do you know how hard it is for me to make a decision? I don't even know if I want to fight the bond and reject him or I want to try it out? Can you think of how I feel right now? I just came back and my life is already becoming so complicated. I'm having to choose between my best friend,who I thought will definitely be my mate and my mate, who hasn't done any wrong to me but just be paired by the Moon Goddess with me? How the hell do you think I feel?"

"But you shouldn't have to think about all this. I thought we had an understanding about this? Reject our mates if we don't end up being one? What happened to that?"

"We were just twelve Jakey. We didn't even understand as much as we do now. We were just acting and promising because of how smitten we were then. We're older now. We both know the consequences of rejecting one's true mate. Ain't you thinking about that?"

"I don't care Rey. You're my only true mate. I can't even consider anyone else being my mate but you. We feel for each other. We've grown our feelings through the years. We've kept ourselves for each other. We've had plans of our future together. Why are you doing this to me? To you? To us? What happened to Forever and Always? Are you backing out now?"

"Every plan we made was for if we ended up being mates. We made all these plans on the basis that we were going to be paired together by the Moon Goddess. We didn't plan on not being mates. We never really thought of what was to happen if we didn't end up being paired with each other. Our mates have not committed anything wrong about us. We can't just reject them like that Jakey. It's unfair to them and us too. Don't you wanna know what it is like ending up with your true mate? Don't you want to have a relationship like the ones our parents have? We are never going to be happy with ourselves knowing we defied the Moon Goddess and rejected our chosen. There's always going to be the nagging thoughts of 'what if's' at the back of our minds. We can't risk that."

I knew it. I knew the moment he wanted to do something stupid that was going to hurt us both. It wasn't so much the tears in his eyes as it was the hard way his jaw set in. The firm line his lips pulled into,the disappointment and disgust I could see behind the tears in his eyes. My heart was breaking already at what he would say. No Jake, don't say you whatever it is you want to say next. Please. Please.

"Get out. I do not know you. You are not the Rey I grew up with. She'd never think of hurting me like this. She'd never consider choosing anyone else above me. In decisions that concern us, my feelings are her top priority and they come first. I don't know you. Get out."

"Jakey,don't say that. You're hurting me."

"You hurt me first. You don't know how much it breaks my heart to see you throw all we've built away so easily. As much as this breaks me, I know now that I'm not important to you anymore. Leave."

"Jakey. You're letting your hurt cloud your mind. Think about this."

"Get out Audrey. I don't want to see you."

"We're still best friends."

"Are we? Are we really? I doubt it. Goodbye Audrey. I hope you enjoy your decision."

It wasn't the tear that fell as he said those words. He called me Audrey. It's the way he said my name that made me know he meant it.

"I'm sorry Jakey Beary. I never wanted to hurt you. It breaks my heart to see us like this. Let's resolve this. Please."

He turned his back to me. He was done talking to me. I was losing my BestFriend.

I said I was sorry again before I turned and walked out the door. I think I heard him let a sob out. I couldn't stop the tears from coming. Moon Goddess,are you angry with me? What did I do wrong? Can you see what I'm losing just to accept your pairing? It was supposed to be Jake; what changed your mind? I turned to see if maybe he followed me out. Maybe we could come to a compromise? Maybe he'd apologize?

I saw his mom walk out. I saw her face go sorry for her son. I saw the way his sobs shook his body. I saw when he went into his mom's open embrace and let it all out. My heart broke again. He didn't deserve this.

I let my wolf out as I ran and let out small whines and whimpers. My heart was breaking for me and my BestFriend. I'd run out the pain was what I thought before I let my wolf fully take over.

Phew. My heart. My heart. My heart is breaking for Jakey Beary. Who felt his pain? It was hard writing this chapter; I could hear him begging me. I'm still crying. My poor handsome baby.
