You've been best friends with the boys for quite some time now. But you're best BEST friend out of all of them is the outer space lover himself, Corbyn Besson. Although your brother, the one and only Jonah Marais, can sometimes be a bit too over pro...
After I got ready for dinner with Corbyn, an uber dropped me off at the restaurant. 2 hours ago. I called and texted Corbyn like crazy but he never once responded. I was walking back to the bus when my feet got really tired, due to the heels I was wearing, so I decided to take a break. It was late and still raining, I had no jacket or sweater and I was starving. For the first time in what felt like forever, I felt hopeless. I didn't want to call the boys cause I didn't want to worry them. I walked into a coffee shop that was thankfully open 24/7. The few people that were there, gave me a weird look. I can't blame them, I'm wearing a dress that's practically ruined, my hair is drenched in water and there's mascara running down my cheeks. I go up to the counter. As much as I wanted to sit down, I didn't want to get the chairs dirty. The lady working gave me a warm smile which actually made me a bit warm inside.
Lady:Sweetie are you ok?
You:Uhm..Not really no.
She looked at me with concern and I realized I didn't have my wallet.
You:I..I don't have my wallet on me but is there a chance I could get anything to drink?
Lady:Don't worry I'll make you something to eat to ok?
You:Are you sure?
Lady:I've been in your spot before honey and I'm willing to help, but only if you let me.
I smile slightly and nod. She smiles and goes to the kitchen. She comes out a few minutes later and places a cup of coffee and a plate of scrambled eggs in front of me. I eat the food and drink the coffee. Tess was her name. She told me a story about how this guy stood her up and years later they got married. She told me the dates they went on and how he would surprise her with gifts at any time of the year.
You:How long have you guys been together?
Tess:15 years. And it's been the best 15 years of my life.
You:How did you..know that he was the one?
Tess:I gave him a chance. You see my brother didn't think he was a perfect match for me and I didn't think so either but I still gave him a chance to show me the real him. It was the best decision I ever made
You:That's..wow
I said with a smile on my face and she giggled.
Tess:You see even when we had our ups and downs, we still found our way back to each other.
I sit there in amazement and that's when I realize the time. I check my phone and notice it's dead.
You:Oh my gosh it's so late I should probably go. Thank you for everything Tess.
Tess:Anytime sweetie. You have my number so call me anytime you wanna talk.
I hug her tight as she rubbed my back. We say our goodbyes and I walk out. I look up at the sign on top of the store and smile to myself. "Tess's Milkshake shopee." I continue my walk to the bus. I get to the bus a few minutes later and I take a deep breath before getting on. I close the door quietly then turn around to see the boys sleeping on the couch. I go to the back to change, but instead I found Corbyn and Lera asleep in each other's arms. I tear up and quickly grab my clothes. I go to the bathroom, get changed then get in my bunk. I cry quietly as I slowly fall into a deep sleep. The next morning comes and I wake up, feeling the dry tear stains on my cheeks. I sigh and get out of my bunk. I put on my sweater then head to the kitchen part of the bus.
Jonah:Y/n! Where the hell have you been?!
Daniel:Learn how to answer your phone!
You:I had an amazing time guys. Now stop yelling and leave me alone.
Lera:Are those..tear stains on your cheeks?
I look at her and remember what I found the night before. I glance at Corbyn before grabbing my mug from the cabinet. I think of things to try and change the topic as I start to make my coffee.
You:I made a new friend. Her name is Tess and she is super nice.
Jack:You didn't come back with Corbyn.
You:She was telling me a story about her and her husband-
Daniel:Wait so Corbyn did you come back with..
Corbyn:Y/n I- I am so sorry.
You:They've been together for 15 years
Lera:Y/n stop ignoring us we-
You:I asked her how they stayed together for so long and it was the cutest thing ever she said, even though we had our ups and downs we always found our way back to each other.
Jonah:Y/n I-..That's great. I'm happy you made a new friend.
You:Thank you Jonah.
I fake a smile as I take a sip of my coffee.
Corbyn:You-..You said her name was Tess?
You:Yep. Her and her husband own a coffee shop not far from where we were parked. Although the place was called a milkshake shop so that..that's pretty ironic.
Corbyn:We should go there next time were in town.
You:Yea all of us. Even you..Lera.
Lera:Uhm..Yea I mean..
You:Well I'm gonna go get ready for the day so if you'll excuse me.
I set down my mug and go to the back room. I take a few deep breaths as I look for something to wear. Finally I get ready and put on my shoes.

Just as I'm about to walk out, Corbyn walks in and blocks the door. Leaving no way out. I look down avoiding eye contact.
Corbyn:Look at me.
I feel tears start to form in my eyes, I can't get a single word out. I turn around and cover my face with my hands.
Corbyn:Turn around and look at me y/n. Please.
You:I can't.
I feel the tears start to roll down my cheeks.
Corbyn:It's just me and you now. So you can yell at me, hit me, do anything you want. I deserve it.
I put my hands down and turn to face him. I look at him.
You:You left me standing there in the rain.. waiting for you like an idiot and then I come back only to see you holding her like you never wanted to let go..I felt so stupid for actually thinking that you were in love with me. You're not in love with me. The way you look at her, the way you danced with her in the rain, you were so quick to spend every moment with her. But if you love her Corbyn..then tell me now don't just let me make myself look stupid cause I'm just standing here watching you two be all lovey dov-
