Insane // Colby Brock

74

"So..." I said awkwardly as he scratched the back of his neck and then ran a hand through his hair.

"I guess I'll start... I'm sor-" "No." Colby interrupted and shook his head. I scrunched my eyebrows.

"You shouldn't be sorry, you did nothing. I'm so sorry, Scar. I was an absolute dick to you and you've been through so much. You faced one of your biggest fears and I'm so proud of you for that. God! You're best friend almost died and I wasn't there for you!" He said and he threw his head back and then bright it down and put his head in his hands.

"I'm the worst boyfriend. You had to go through all of that, while me, your boyfriend who's supposed to be there for you, was being a dick. God, I'm so sorry Scarlet." He said and shook his head. "Colby, no. You aren't a bad boyfriend-" "yes I am Scarlet! I didn't let you explain, I wasn't there for you or Gus, I blamed you even though I know it wasn't your fault, ignored you, fought with you, all while your best friend was suffering, along with you, I hurt you. I even yelled at Sam for trying to help! Oh my god, I yelled at Sam." He said and shook his head in disbelief and disgust.

"I'm a terrible best friend and an even worse boyfriend." He said and teared up. I shook my head and walked over to him, placing my hands on his face and gently pulling it down so he could see me.

"You aren't a terrible best friend and you are not a terrible boyfriend." I said and looked into his eyes. "But-" he started but I interrupted him. "No. Stop. You're anything but that. You've helped me through so much. Couples fight. Best friends fight. You were angry and not in the right mind by all means. Was it a bad time to be angry? Yes. But the fact that you're snapping out of it is good. You know you did something wrong and you're genuinely sorry and I'm assuming you won't do it again, right?" I asked and he nodded.

"See? You aren't terrible. You just got angry, anger can control you if you let it, and you did which is fine, we all make mistakes. But now, you have to control it." I said and he nodded then pulled me in for a tight hug.

"God I love you." He said and sighed as I smiled. "I love you too." I said and hugged him tighter.

He pulled away, grabbed my waist, pulled me towards him, and crashed his lips onto mine. I kissed back, standing on my tippy toes, pushing all my emotions into this kiss, him doing the same.

He suddenly broke the kiss and wrapped his arms around my waist, picking me up and spinning. We laughed as he spun us, finally feeling happy and glad that this whole fight was over and that we're back to normal.

He put me down and looked into my eyes, still holding my waist. "Can I tell you something?" He asked and I nodded. "I pretty much gave up on love until I found you." He said and smiled. "I'm so lucky and thankful to have you, Scar. You don't even know." He said and I smiled, tears brimming my eyes.

"Me too, Colby. I'm so lucky and grateful to have you in my life." I said. Our smiles grew and he pulled me back into another kiss, this one a little longer and filled with love.

I smiled into the kiss, him doing the same, before pulling away and grabbing his hand, leading him back into the room.

Everyone looked at us and smiled. "Look at me! Im a couple fixer upper." Gus said, proudly as he winked at me. We all laughed and then I let go of Colby's hand, and ran to Gus's bed, carefully hugging him as tightly as I could without hurting him.

He used all of the strength he could to hug me back, and rub my back. "I'm glad you're okay." He whispered and I pulled back with a confused look. "You're glad I'm okay!? No. Im glad you're okay!" I said and he smirked at me.

I rolled my eyes and laughed.

Im glad Gus is back and that me and Colby are back to normal.
