Love is Always There - 16
Andrea is set on finding who started those stupid rumors... Will she find the culprit?
I needed to breathe. Yesterday with Jonathan was amazing. We sat there for a while, just talking like best friends. But we were more. He was so worth the wait. I never thought that I would find someone as amazing as him.
Today I was going back to the editing room. This was MY company, not Carl's. I was not going to let him boss me around. When I got there no one was there. So I decided to watch what we had done so far. Looked good so far. I clipped some shots here and there, making sure that Kyle and Kevin wouldn't be too upset if I cut more off.
The door opened and I decided not to look at who it was. If it was Carl, I was still upset and didn't want to talk to him. If it was any of the other guys, I was a little embarrassed.
Whoever it was came up behind the chair and put their hands on the top of it. They didn't say anything. Neither did I.
He continued to watch me for about five minutes. Then he finally spoke.
"Doing a good job I see." I froze. It was Peter. What in the world was he doing here?
I turned around to look at him. "Thanks," I replied. "What are you doing here?"
"I came to talk you out of something." He sat on one of the soundboards.
"Talk me out of what?" I pushed him off the soundboard. Those were expensive!
"Being with Jonathan."
"Are you kidding me?" I asked.
"Jonathan is the one starting the rumors."
"Oh really? And how do you know this?"
"I've been trying to figure it out. And did you know he has two cell phones? One for professional use and the other for personal. Did he ever give you his personal number?"
"No. And that's because he only has one cell phone." I turned back to the screens. I had enough. First the rumors, now Jonathan was getting accused of the rumors?
"You have to believe me," Peter insisted.
I turned back at him. "And just WHY would Jonathan start the rumors, huh? What exactly would that do for him?"
"He doesn't want anyone to be around you. He wants you all to himself."
"He wants me to be happy. And I'm not happy with everyone avoided me. Neither am I happy that you're telling me my boyfriend is the one who started these rumors."
"I'm just telling you the truth, Andrea. You don't have to believe me. But I will tell you that Jonathan told me off... he was bragging about how he got you and I didn't. But, whatever. Don't believe me." With that he got up and left.
I just sat there, furious. I couldn't believe he would come in here and say all of that.
Then again, Jonathan wanted to spend all his time with me. But I did too. It couldn't be Jonathan... could it? I wasn't able to even think about believing that.
Later that day I went to Jonathan's house. I loved him. I did not believe he would do such a thing because he loved me too... right?
"Hey Babe!" he greeted me, and planted a kiss on my forehead. "How'd editing go with Carl and the guys?"
"It was okay. I acted like nothing was wrong but you could feel the tension between me and Carl."
"I'm sorry Babe."
"It's okay... Guess who came into the editing room this morning."
He looked at me as he sat down on the couch.
I sat next to him. "Peter."
Jon's face changed. He looked almost upset. "What did he want?"
"He claimed that you were the one starting the rumors."
Jon was mad now. "He said what!?"
"I know. I was mad too."
"What is wrong with him? First he comes up to me saying how sooner or later you would end up going to him and now he's accusing me of starting the rumors that are making you unhappy? Why would I even do that?"
"He told you that? He said I was going to be with him?"
"Yes. And that's why I try to steer clear of him. I don't want you to be around him either."
I shook my head in frustration. "This is insane. You know what? I think he's the one starting the rumors. Maybe this was a whole plan... that he'd start them and frame you so that you looked like some control freak."
"Well if so then that's extremely messed up. Gosh, I can't believe this!" He stood up and started pacing with anger.
"Babe, don't worry. I won't be around him at all. But these rumors have to stop. I'll have Carl make a whole mandatory cast and crew meeting tomorrow to figure all this out."
"Well, I just want you to know... If Peter's there, you'll have to hold me back from giving him a black eye."
I laughed. "You know that everyone's going to hold you back. Don't worry. Tomorrow everything will work out."
I hoped.
