lasting love ☾ (Not Alone Sequel) o2l fanfiction

chapter 10

a wave of emotions struck me.

i started crying too, but i smiled.

"okay, i want you to get better. i promise i'll visit you sometime." i say.

he smiles for a split second.

"i'm leaving tomorrow morning." kian said.

"okay" was all i had said when his eyes drifted close.

kian's hand was still wrapped around mine, loose, but firm.

i awoke by the sound of an alarm.

i looked around, seeing kian no longer next to me.

i got up and ran down the stairs.

he was holding his suitcase, just about to get into a taxi.

i ran outside.

he dropped his suitcase and i gave him a big hug.

"i promise i'll visit you as much as i can." i whisper in his ear.

he lifts away and stands back, tucking a piece of hair behind my ear and kissing my temple.

"promise?" he asked, holding out his pinkie.

"promise." i said locking our fingers together.

then he left.

i kind of felt numb when the car drove off.

"you okay, baby girl?" sam asked, wrapping his hands around my waist.

"no." i said and faced him.

"he'll be safe, beth. he's getting better."

he pulled me into a hug when i didn't respond.

i couldn't get kian off my mind.

it was depressing, but i had to get through it and i know that everyone was feeling this way, especially sam because they are best friends.

sam and i just laid in bed, staring at the ceiling, not being able to sleep.

i rested my head on sam's chest.

"he'll be okay." i whisper.

my eyes began to drift close.

● ● ●

when i awoke, the sun was shining, the curtains were open and sam was playing with my hair.

i began to get up, he pulled me even closer than before.

"babe, i have to get up, okay?"

"okay." he said.

i kissed his nose and got in the shower.

when i came into our room, he was gone.

i walked downstairs and my phone buzzed.

it was tyler.

t: hey beth

b: hey what's up?

t: i was wondering if you wanted to film a video with troye and i at my house?

we hadn't made a video in such a long time, and it was always a fun time with tyler.

b: i would love to

t: great :)

b: see you in about 10

t: see you

i had slipped on some shorts and a black halter top.

"sam i'm going to tyler's and gonna film a video, maybe stay over, i'll text you." i say and kiss his cheek and head out the door.

when i arrive at tyler's, troye greeted me.

"beth!" he said and wrapped himself around me like a small koala.

"troye!" i said, hugging his body tightly.

he lets go and i head further in the house.

"hey tyler!" i say, hugging him.

"hey." he said, half laughing from what troye had done.

"want something to drink, i mean it's already about 6 pm?" tyler asked, handing troye a beer and grabbing one for himself.

"sure." i said and he handed me one.

i mean i didn't care, i drank anyway and so did troye.

society is stupid.

when we finally got to tyler's couch to film the video, we hadn't decided what we were going to film.

"how about, the 'most likely to' challenge, thing?"

"sure im down with it." troye said.

i hadn't made that video yet, so i was happy to do it.

we wrote the names on the cards and tyler started for his video first, then me, then troye.

tyler tweeted some questions for it, receiving hundreds in a matter of minutes.

we started and ended up laughing at stupid questions.

when we finished all of the recording, we all sat on the floor editing it on our laptops.

"we should get some food." troye suggests.

i nod in agreement.

when the pizza we ordered came, we frantically took a slice, even though it was burning hot.

once the pizza was finished and the editing was final, we clicked on the tv, cuddling with each other on the couch.

a big blanket draped over us, compacting us more together.

i rested my head on troye's shoulder and tyler did the same to mine.

we put on ahs on netflix.

● ● ●

when i woke up, tyler was up, a mug of coffee in his hands.

i checked my phone realizing i had two missed calls from sam.

i dialed his number and put the phone to my ear. 

"babe, what the hell is going on?!" he asked through the phone, sounding a little panicked.

"what are you talking about?" i ask.

"why did kian leave?! where is he?!" he said, his speech slurred.
