Girl Meets New Love

Chapter 91

Sabrina's POV:

New Year's Eve was really fun.
I threw a huge party, got wasted, and Rowan and I had about 600 New Year's Eve kisses, just not all were on the lips...

I woke up from a nap because of a call on my phone.
Good thing I did wake up, I've apparently been asleep for 3 hours. Now I'll never sleep tonight. It's already 9pm.

I answer the call and say groggily,
"Hello?"

I hear Michael (Jacobs) voice say,
"Sabrina?"

I clear my throats and sit up and say,
"Oh yeah hey! Sorry what's up?"

He asks politely,
"Did I wake you?"

I say,
"Psssh. Whaaat? No I totally wasn't sleeping for 3 hours."

He laughs and says,
"Uh so I got some news."

I say,
"Okay. Shoot."

He says upset,
"It's not the best. In fact it's bad. Even though we kinda expected this and that's why you were able to go on tour. That's why I called you before Rowan.."

I feel my heart sink. It's true. It's really happening. It- its over.
I say with my voice cracking,
"Oh my god. Girl meets world is over isn't it.. Disney canceled it."

There's a moment of silence, then a depressing sounding,
"Yes. I'm sorry. We gave it our all and I couldn't be prouder of our work and all of you guys. All good things must come to an end."

I feel a lump in my throat and I try to swallow over it. I choke out,
"I-I know."

He says,
"Well I'm go-gonna call the rest of the cast no-"

I cut him off.
"Wait call Rowan in like 5 minutes. I need to get over there."

He says,
"Of course. See you later sabs."

I say monotoned,
"Bye Michael."

Damn.

Good thing Sarah isn't home right now because she'd be asking me where I'm going.

Still in my sweats and a hoodie I don't bother to grab any shoes and rush to grab my keys and phone.
I basically run to my car and drive to Rowan's house as quickly as I can.
I call her and she doesn't hesitate to pick up,
"Hey baby."

I say monotone,
"I'm coming over."

She says excitedly,
"Ooh yay! I wa- oh wait hold on I'm getting a call from Michael."

I feel my heart sink again. I gulp and say,
"Okay just answer it I'll be there soon."

She says,
"Okay see you soon."

I feel awful knowing when I get there I won't be seeing the same excited and happy girl I just talked to.
I'll be talking to a girl with tear stained cheeks and red puffy eyes instead.

I surely have an opinion on this while topic about why and how, but it's not my place to talk about Disney channel like that. 

When I get to her house I run up the steps and gently open the door and carefully walk into the house.
I see Rowan, Carmen, and their parents on the couch.

Rowan looks devastated.

They all look at me sympathetically.
Rowan with more tears just waiting to pour out of her beautiful chocolate brown eyes.

We don't say a word to each other, no gestures.

She runs up to me and tightly hugs me, crying into my shoulder.

I hold her back with all my might with my eyes closed tightly shut.

After a minute, her shaking and crying slows down.
I pull back slightly and say barely above a whisper,
"Cmon."

And walk upstairs to her room.
We lay down with her cuddled up to my side and her hand held closely to her face.
I slowly rub her back in circles staring up at the ceiling, trying to calm her down to make her sleep.

Suddenly, I hear Rowan ask quietly,
"Why our show?"

I breathe in and out deeply not knowing what to say. She continues,
"Why not any other show? We had the most views and brought a diverse audience to Disney."

I say softly,
"I know. But right now all you have to worry about is the fans. We need to talk to them. Why don't you tweet something out about how the show was the best experience and led you to meet all of us. I mean this is just the end of one chapter. Onto the next. So, cheers we're almost done with the book and are still together."

I look down at her holding my hand up.
She weakly smiles, but I know she tried. She high fives my hand and grabs it and says,
"Thunder."

I say,
"Lightening."

She says quietly,
"Forever."

I repeat,
"Forever."

She sighs out and cuddles closer to my body and says,
"Okay I'll tweet something out. Do you wanna go first?"

I shake my head and say,
"You take it away. It's your show. You met the world. Now tell your story about it."

She smiles and starts to type a message to all our fans.

What feels like 20 hours later, she's finally done.
I felt myself dozing off when suddenly she says louder than I expected,
"Done!"

I say rubbing my face with my palm,
"Okay good."

She says,
"I think I covered pretty much everything."

I smile and go on my phone and check twitter.
When I see her recent tweet I say,
"Jesus Christ Rowan this is a damn essay."

She says,
"Well I'd like to see you write about it fully and not end up with a novel."

I say,
"Fine I will. I'll do it on Instagram."

I look through my pictures on my phone to find a picture of the whole cast together to post.
When I find a good one I start to write about how I'm grateful to have this experience and all that it's done for me.

After a minute or two I say,
"Done. Check Instagram."

She smirks and says mocking me,
"Jesus Christ Sab this is an essay."

I say,
"Oh come on. It's not eve- oh wait yeah it is."

We laugh and I happily sigh out and say,
"You know? This isn't the end of the show. So what Disney cancelled it? Who knows, someone might pick it up. Plus the episodes will continue to run and inspire people everyday."

She says sadly,
"I know that. That's not the sad part. The sad part is the memories we made. On set, in the prop room, in school all together, getting our hair done by Laurie, wardrobe, our breaks on long days, and-"

She stops herself when she starts to cry again.

I sigh out and pull her body closer to mine with my arm and say rocking her,
"Don't cry row."

She holds her hand to her face, muffling it. I lean down and kiss the top of her head. She says into my body,
"World meets girl is gonna make me cry even more."

I ask,
"You wanna watch it when it comes out?"

She says,
"Yeah I want to look back."

I say quietly rubbing her side,
"Me too."

I feel her body's trembling slow down. I coo and whisper,
"Baby go to sleep. It's all gonna be okay."

:( rip

I have no words for this tbh. Too many feelings.
