"You so have a crush on the other cousin!" Ella's words brought me back to reality.
"What? No I don't, shut up!" There was no way I was letting this happen, I mean they were cousins? And sure he was like a fucking god or something, but no matter how much I hated Jack for what he did, I wouldn't sink to his level....
Eventually Els got bored of pestering me about Henry so went to FaceTime George, if it had been any other friends house I would've felt awkward but Ella and Jess's houses were like my 2nd homes, so I just put the kettle on and plonked myself down in my usual spot and started watching repeats of Some Girls series one.
Halfway through episode two my phone flashed with a text from an unknown number, I opened it and without realising, a smile crept across my face, 'Told you so ;)'
Me: you took your time ;)
Henry: aww couldn't stop thinking about me could you? ;)
Me: you wish ;) guessing Jack put up a fight in order for you to get my number?
Henry: some things are worth the effort and worth fighting for ;) x
Just at this point Ella burst in,
"Oh my god Scar, George is so frickin cute....hang on a minute why are you smiling so much? Shit have you had an allergic reaction to a bee sting again? Botox gone wrong? Or have you just wet yourself?"
I kicked her in the shin and she winced in fake pain, there was no way in hell I could ever cause any serious damage to her....then again there was that time with the 3rd degree burn, best not bring that up though.
"Umm well Henry text me" I said trying to act as casual about the situation as possible.
"Saying?!" My best friend was a sucker for details, she always has to know every little thing.
I sighed and reluctantly handed her my phone. Her eyes began scanning the screen and I swear if you were quiet enough you could hear the little nuts and bolts going off in her head as she tried to work out exactly what each message meant.
"HE SO CLEARLY LIKES YOU" Ella finally exclaimed, so after all that, that was her big explanation.
"Haha you wish"
"I don't need to wish young Scarlett, I simply know"
I smiled, hoping that it was true, I mean he was really hot, and he was talking to me despite how angry it would make Jack, but I felt like there was something missing from the puzzle, I mean we'd spoken on Skype before when I used to go out with Jack, so it wasn't like he was a complete stranger.
It was just this one thing, and I couldn't quite put my finger on it.
And then it hit me...

Untitled love song
Teen FictionMaybe that was how it was meant to be, 'forever untitled', maybe there wasn't even a song to be sung, but maybe, just maybe, everything happened for a reason and the our story is untitled is because it's still hasn't finished being written.
