Your POV
Finally! Dinner was done! I was glad it was done since we couldn't leave the table until every body is finished and it was so awkward well for Lauren and i. Our families were enjoying themselves while Lauren and i suffered from the awkward situation between us. The parents told us to go to the backyard and hang out since it's been a while since we hang out, but i really didn't want to since that meant Lauren will be there. On their backyard they had so much things, like chess, and a pool table and the table hockey game. Then they have a pool and yeah... i then frown since memories of Lauren and i flooded my mind, i remembered when Lauren and i loved swimming, she would always teach me how to float. I shake my head and then sat on the chair as Taylor and Chris fought since they wanted to play music. Lauren just sat there looking at her phone, i sighed i really wanted to go home, since i was bored and i just didn't want to be near Lauren.
I sighed loudly causing Lauren to lift her head up looking at me, i look away from her and just stared at the wall blankly, i then smiled since i remembered i brought my book. I opened my book and then started reading "Okay, no." i heard i look up and saw Clara walking to Lauren "No phones Lauren, you NEED to socialize" she said grabbing Lauren's phone. "BUT MOM!" Clara gave her a stern look causing Lauren to scoff and glared at her i then saw my phone holding up her hand, i frown and closed my book giving it to her. "Your phone too" i sighed and gave her my whole bag, she smiled slightly then went inside. Great, now i have to socialize too. I stood up and sat on the edge of the pool looking at my reflection, i was bored soooo bored. Until i heard Taylor and Chris talking silently to Lauren.
"Go talk to her" Chris told Lauren "I can't Chris!" she said "Come on Lauren, it's been years. Don't you miss your best friend?" i heard Lauren groan "Can you both just mind your damn business?!" she said annoyed "Lauren, you two are graduating soon which means you'll be out of the house and we both miss Y/N too." Lauren scoffed "I don't understand" Taylor sighed "Y/N stopped visiting us since you guys were 13. Chris and i miss her, and since you both are going to college soon then we won't be seeing you AND her for a long time" i sighed and just closed my eyes blocking every sound, i just wanted to be in peace, i want to sleep.
Lauren's POV
"Please Lauren, we miss your goofy moments too" Chris told me, i kept my arms crossed on my chest still thinking whether i should talk to my old best friend or not. I mean, we are going to college soon which means we won't be seeing each other for so long. "Please?" Taylor said giving me her puppy eyes, i sighed deeply "I don't want you two here then" i said raising an eyebrow at the both of them who nodded and went inside. When Y/N and i were alone i can't help but feel nervous, i gulped and glanced at the girl who was sitting on the edge of the pool. I think it's time... to tell her everything. I hesitantly stood up and walked to her silently, i sat beside her and looked at her, her eyes were locked on her reflection she didn't want to make eye contact with me. "Y/N?" i said softly i saw her blink and gulp "Yeah?" she asked not looking at me i frown "How are you?" i asked sighing slightly she look up but didn't look at me. "I'm... okay? I guess?" she said i was about to talk but she cut me off.
"Actually no, who am i kidding. I am hurt Lauren, i don't feel okay, i feel like crying because when i entered your house memories of us just floods my mind, the spaghetti... the pool... UGH and then when i look at you i come back to reality where you always ignore me. SO no Lauren, i'm not okay" she said crossing her arms glaring at the water. I let out a sigh and frown since i could see the hurt in her eyes even though they aren't looking at me, i could still see the pain and the hurt. "Y/N... i'm sorry" i said softly i reach out to rub her arm but she slowly pulled away "I'm okay now, you can go" she said and then i saw a tear slid down her cheek. I bit my lip and felt really sad now, okay i was stupid for leaving her like that. Geez Lauren.
"No you're not okay" i said she sniffled and sighed "i'm really sorry Y/N please let me explain everything?" i begged "No it's okay, we'll be heading to college soon anyway. We won't be seeing each other again. You can continue ignoring me if you want" she said standing up and was about to walk inside but i got her hand. "Please? At least just hear me out?" she look up and finally made eye contact with me, her eyes were watery and i knew it was my fault so here i am, i'm going to explain everything. I mean... EVERYTHING.
