Shaima'a POV
Throwing the rest of my clothes into my suitcase I never felt so relieved. Now I have to last a 13 hour flight back home, that might take a huge toll on me that's for sure. See living in California for the last 2 years hasn't been that bad. It's just sometimes you're gonna miss being around those who supported you from the beginning. I grab my stuff and was about to leave my apartment before I realized I had missed something. Sitting at the table in front of the door had been a picture frame holding a photo that made my heart melt a little. We were 15, in his parent backyard celebrating his birthday. It was probably one of the best year out of the 10 I've know him. I slightly smile reliving those memories in my head and place the frame in my bag. I wonder if he still cares? I left him knowing that things would not be the same if I returned and I regret every moment of it. But sometimes you have to do what's best for yourself right? Or did I make that mistake of even leaving in the first place?

Trents POV:"What do you mean she's coming back?" I ask Tyler as I walk into the kitchen
"Trent do you not check your Instagram? She's coming home" Tyler smiles at me "this is a good thing, you'll finally stop mopping around the house when you see new photos of her" he laughs and I roll my eyes
"She's probably gonna go straight to Mason anyways, so what's the point to even getting my hopes up" I sigh and sit on the stool
"You're still on about that? How many times does she have to tell you that nothing is going on between them? She told you before she left and you still don't believe her? You're ridiculous" Tyler shakes his head
"Tyler it's been 2 years since I've seen her or even talked to her. People change, what do you expect me to think. They've probably been talking this entire time while I was thrown to the side just like trash."
"What do you expect her to do? You guys got into a fight before she left. And don't try to deny the fact that she tried to call you, you were the one who chose to ignore her. She gave up Trent, after a while I would've done the same thing. You need to grow up and just tell her how you feel, or you're gonna lose her forever." Tyler tells me and then leaves the room. He was right, but I was afraid that she hates me. I wouldn't even know where to start.

Shaimas POV:
I look down at my phone and softly smile
*Trentaronold66 has liked your photo*
"There you are you cheeky little bastard" I say quietly and throw my phone back onto my bed and continue unpacking my clothes.*knock knock*
I look up from my bag and scrunch my eyebrows together in confusion. I walk up to the door and open it to be immediately picked up and twirled around in the air by the one and only Mason. I laugh as I wrap my arms around him tighter and bury my face in his neck. He puts me down and places his hands on the side of my face and looks at me with the biggest smile. "Hi Mason" I smile
"Hey Shay" a slight blush appears on his cheeks "you have no idea how much I've missed you" he says softly and I couldn't help but blush even harder than I already had
"Oh shut up you" I laugh and push him away "wait how did you know my new address?"
"I called your mother doofus," he laughs and follows me to my bedroom
"Damn I forgot about that" I laugh "well since you are here wanna lend me a hand?"
"Damn already putting me to work? How rude" he laughs and I shake my head and we start unpacking. About an hour later we finished a good chunk but decided to take a break and went for a walk. "So have you seen anyone else yet?"
"Besides my parents? Nope, if you have forgotten I literally just got here not even a couple hours ago" I laugh
"Ya I'm surprised you even have this much energy" mason laughs
"That's what sleeping on the plane does to you" I laugh and give him a soft shove to only have him put his arms around my shoulder.
"So have you heard from him yet?" He asks and I sigh
"Nope just Tyler, I haven't talked to him since I left Mase, things aren't the same as they use to be"
"Well maybe things will change you never know" he shrugs "maybe Tyler will put him in his place"
"Ya but who even knows if I can trust him. It was a pretty bad fight mason and even when I tried to call him he completely ignored all of them. Tyler told me to give him time but I guess I just gave up" I sigh and soon feel him pull me closer
"If he doesn't fix things then he is the idiot. You did all you could."
"I know but I just wonder if I could've done more you know" which was true. What if I never left and we could've worked things out better than what has become of the situation. I didn't realize our first big fight would even end of friendship like how it did. But who knows, maybe things could change.
