Lost

Chapter 2: Fading footsteps

Y/n's pov

"My fiancé"

Laying on my bed

Those two words wouldn't stop replaying in my head

I've tried everything to fall asleep but I just couldn't

Ever since mom's passing, I've noticed how dad had been at home more often than usual. He seemed happier, carefree

Which made me wonder

Mom and dad never argued in their relationship, they seemed to love each other a lot, at least that's what I saw

When dad would be at work, they would face time each other all the time, chatting like there's no tomorrow

I just wanted to know how and why he moved on so quickly after her passing on not to long ago

Was there something going on that I wasn't aware of?

Pulling my sheets over my head, closing my eyes from all the overthinking, I sigh, opening my phone to message Mason

Mason and I were best friends, inseparable in other words

He's always been there to comfort me when I've been at my lowest. He is the most respectful and understanding person I've ever met. He always knew what to say and how to keep me on my toes

People would often say things like "wow you guys look so good together" or "are you two a couple?". I don't blame them though, we were all over each other no matter where we were

But it wasn't like that, I swear

Sure we kissed sometimes but only as friends....

I admit that I've had a little crush on him before

I had this feeling that he felt the same way but it was as if we were both to afraid to confront one another so we just stayed close friends

Even though I've wanted to confess to him

I hesitated a lot, asking myself, what if things don't go as expected?

Would we still be as close?

Would we hang out as frequently as we did?
