Wrong Number

Chapter 42

Y/n spent the whole ride home thinking about Lizzie. After seeing her she started feeling frustrated. She certainly knew Lizzie moved here after saying the whole truth about her life with Boyd in that interview.

y/n: "Alissa!" She says the second she walks inside the house. "ALISSA!" She shouts again.

Alissa came running out of her room, "What? What happened?" and asked worried.

Y/n: "I saw Lizzie."

Alissa rolls her eyes. "Jeez. You fucking scared me."

y/n: "I'm sorry." She tries calming herself down a bit, "She said she missed me." and says.

Alissa gasps with a slight smile. "What?!"

Y/n: "Yeah, and I think I made her feel bad because I didn't say anything and she apologized and then I said I had to go." She said, talking every time faster after each word, feeling desperate and guilty.

Alissa hiding her laugh, "Calm the fuck down." tells her sister.

Y/n: "Its not that easy, okay?"

Alissa: "I know but just calm down, it's not that big of a deal-"

Y/n: "It's Lizzie." She says. "It is a big- huge deal."

Alissa: "I thought you were over her."

Y/n: "Yeah me too. And now i feel like i lied to myself this whole time because I really like Hailee, and thinking about Lizzie was basically just me hurting myself so I just convinced myself that i was over her so that it hurt less and although it was practically a lie I managed to stop thinking about her." She said in just one breath.

Alissa not even knowing what to say to all that, stared at her sister while she spoke.

Y/n: "Should I call her?" She asked Alissa and herself. "Maybe we can go out and talk about it. Wait- Should i tell Hailee first?" She kept asking herself while walking side to side not being able to stand still. "ALISSA SAY SOMETHING."

Alissa: "I don't know. Just don't do anything stupid."

Y/n: "That was not helpful, at all." She said.

Alissa: "Well i'm your sister, not your therapist."

Y/n groaned of despair and walked away from Alissa and went inside her room.

Y/n spent almost 2 hours laying on the floor, staring at the ceiling while thinking about absolutely everything that has happened in the past few months.

Lizzie's POV:

It's been over 2 hours since our unexpected encounter in the grocery store. She's the only thing i've been thinking about since.

I miss her so much. Although it wasn't in the best circumstances, I still got to see her. She looked so good, beautiful as always.

I want to know what she thinks, I don't know if what I said was the right thing to say or not. All I wish is for her to be here with me.

I was thinking about going out again, this time maybe to get some air, something to eat. I just didn't want to be in this room anymore.

Just when i was about to get up from my bed, I heard my phone ring, I checked and it was a text message.

The pretty one (y/n)

The pretty one
Hey, I know it might be weird getting a text from me, but I was just wondering if you would want to grab dinner with
me tonight?

The pretty one
Maybe we can talk?

Of course!

—————————————————

Getting a text from her was definitely weird, I certainly wasn't expecting it. But I was more than happy to finally be able to see her again, that's all I needed.

I didn't really need to get ready, since i was wearing the same thing from 2 hours ago. But thinking about the fact that I was gonna see her, I changed my entire outfit. Before finally walking out, i looked in the mirror a few times until i felt like it was right.

When I was about to finish getting ready, i got another text from Y/n. She sent me the location where we were going to meet... Hailee's restaurant.

I wasn't sure how to feel about that since it doesn't really have to mean anything, but at the same time it could. Does it mean Hailee will be there?

I finally finished getting ready, so i walked out of my room and headed to the restaurant.

I just got here, I was right in front of it and i could see Y/n sitting on a table by herself from the window. She looked so good.

I don't know why but I was feeling so nervous. I don't even know what this is about.

I took a big breath to calm the stupid nerve, and finally walked inside.

Lizzie: "Hey." I awkwardly say with a smile.

Y/n: "Hey." She replies with a warm smile. "It's nice to see you again."

I for some reason blushed, "It's nice to see you too." and said.

Y/n: "Um- I really wanted to talk to you about something." She begins saying. I knew it wasn't anything good, because in just a second her facial expression completely changed.

Lizzie: "Yeah. What is it?" I asked. Not really wanting to know anymore.

Y/n: "I really don't know how to say this." She says. "I love you, okay. I don't think that'll ever change."

I couldn't help but blush again.

Y/n: "But after you left, I left you not only texts but a voicemail, which i never got a reply from."

Lizzie: "I- I'm sorry."

Y/n: "I waited weeks for just one call, text, anything from you but I still got nothing."

I remained silent. I saw those messages, and I regret not answering back. I didn't know what to say, because she was right.

It was selfish of me to expect her to wait for me, to wait for whenever i felt like texting her back after how I treated her.

Y/n: "I actually started feeling well again. I started hanging out with Hailee, and i'm sorry to say this, i really am, but I began to grow feelings for her also."

God this hurt. That was painful to hear, but deep inside I knew that, I just didn't think it would actually be true because I didn't want it to be true.

Y/n: "I know you moved here so we're probably going to run into each other a lot. I don't want to make this a bad thing, I would still like for you to be part of my life. We could always be friends. I'll always be here for you, y'know."

I nod with a weak smile, holding back my tears. "I'm more than okay with that. I'm happy for you, Y/n. I really am."

That might not be entirely true, but I want to see her happy.

Y/n smiles. "Thank you-" Just after she finished her sentence, her phone began to ring. "I'm sorry, it's Hailee." She gets up from her seat and answers the call.

I sat there thinking while waiting. I cant believe i actually thought we would have another chance. I lost the person i love the most, and it's all my fault.

Now I need to get used to the fact that im now going to have to see her loving someone else.
