f/n help I messed up

What did you do this time?

Don't tell me your hand's stuck in a vending machine again...

No not this time

I maybe sorta kinda agreed to go to Sorens wedding

What?!

Why would you do that knowing there's gonna be other people you don't know there?

And on top of that SOREN is getting MARRIED

I sigh, realizing that f/n probably wouldn't have a solution for this situation either. I mean, I could bring them— oh wait, I could bring them!

Come with me!

Please!

What?

I mean of course, but are you sure you wanna go?

Soren and Liz have been together since... well a few days after you confessed

I take a deep breath, realizing I'd have to face things soon enough. I mean, it's been years, there's no need to still be stuck on this whole thing.

I don't like Soren anymore. At least, I don't think I do. It's been a while. But nowadays my mind is set on... other people.

Yeah

I've gotta man up at some point

No reason for me to avoid Soren's invitation just because I'm petty over something that happened five years ago.

I'm proud of you y/n

You're really starting to come back out of your shell you know?

I smile a little, happy that f/n is recognizing the small changes I've been working on. Like actually speaking my mind and hanging out with others, even if 'others' were just Clay.

Of course, I still had terrible anxiety, and speaking in public wasn't any easier. But I had one more person in my life, which was a bonus.

Keep me updated okay?

I'm always here for you

Got it

Thank you f/n

I need a distraction. If I don't get one soon my anxiety is gonna bite me in the ass with thoughts on why Soren invited me, and how he imagined me as a person after the confession so long ago.

Hey, you still up?

Since me and Clay had been playing our Minecraft game for so long, I was assuming he'd gone to take a nap, probably exhausted from staying up so long.

I was actually about to knock out

Is something wrong?

Looking at the messages I decide not to try and make the man keep me entertained. Instead, I send him a small apology and lay down in bed.

Maybe I could get some sleep in too, considering I've been running off fumes for the past few days.
