53- I gave you everything I had.

"Are you still with Paul? Or is it over with again with him going back to Italy?" Y/n is out having lunch with the girls, that include Paul's sister Anna.
Who doesn't know about y/n's new beau. "Paul? Paul who?" Anna asks her, really putting her on the spot. "Do I know him? Oh come on!! Everyone else knows, why don't I know." Y/n looks down at her plate.. "Eh. He was meant to tell you." Y/n says quietly.
Anna looks at her. "He was? As in my little brother, Paul?"
Y/n makes her excuses and goes for a blast of fresh air.
She can sense all the other girls are talking about her.
"I can't keep doing this!! You said you'd tell Anna and you haven't! You had one job Paul."

Paul pops into the restaurant on his way to the gym. Y/n doesn't look up at him. Even as he sits down beside her. "Aww don't you two look cute." Anna teases them. But Paul looks at y/n and she is very much not paying attention to anyone. "I need to go.." y/n says getting up and throwing money down on the table.
Paul runs after her. Much to Anna's annoyance. "You'd think he'd want to spend time with his actual sister not just her fake friend."
Paul races behind y/n. "Hey... wait up." Y/n stops dead in her tracks. "What Paul?" She turns to look at him.
"Are you still hungry? We can go somewhere else for a late breakfast." Y/n nods her head, grudgingly agreeing purely because she is hungry.

As they sit down, Paul can't help but smile. Happy to have her to himself.
"Stop smiling!! You said you'd tell her!" Y/n grumps at him, but Paul keeps smiling. "Can we not talk about my sister. We are out together in Estonia for the first time." But y/n shakes her head.
"Why is is the first time in Estonia? Paul." He looks down, but still smiling.
"I'm just happy that we are doing it finally. It's good to be out... No?" Paul eventually reads her face. Y/n shakes her head.
"No it really doesn't. You promised me that you would speak to Anna. Why didn't you speak to her? You promised me Paul." Paul bites his lip. Hating that she is now biting his head off.
"I'm sorry. I will fix it. I promise you babe.." y/n shakes her head. "It's too little, too late. I've asked you since you came back from Italy." Paul pouts at her, lost in his own happiness, he didn't really think about how it'll affect y/n's friendship with his sister.

"I'm sorry. Honestly it's been crazy and I know I shouldn't have not told Anna." Y/n shakes her head. "No. I've been honest, I've gave you everything I had Paul and you couldn't even tell your sister. Maybe this isn't what you want. Maybe I'm not willing to lose out on a friendship for you."
Paul stops smiling. "Wait. What? Are you breaking up with me? No. You can't." She nods her head.
"Why do you have too?" He looks annoyed and confused. "I don't want too. I've said sorry. Please just forgive me." But he watches becoming more and more upset that she won't just accept it.
"I will speak to her, please don't just walk away from me now." His voice breaks a little, as he was close to sharing how he feels about y/n.
But now it's almost pointless.

"Can I go now? This just doesn't feel right anymore Paul." Y/n says starting to grab her things off of the table. "Stop running. Will you just let me explain..." He stands up before her, it hadn't gone how he had wanted it too.
"No. I'll still support you trackside. But I'll need to leave it here before one of us get hurt. Like Anna is right now." Y/n reaches up and touches his face, making Paul thinks she wants to kiss. But she turns away and heads out.

———————————————-

A couple of weeks go by, Paul moping around the house. Starts to annoy Anna, he hasn't been out except to train. No one in the house ever really wants to bring up what has been annoying him.

"Do you think he's been dumped?" Anna sits with her Mum. Not expecting her to come out with that.
"Surely not... I only found out he was with y/n." Their mum looks at her. "Oh? Y/n as in your friend y/n?" Anna nods her head. "What's up champ?" Anna asks him. "Did you just mention y/n? Is she okay!" Anna looks confused.
"What's happened? Did you have a row?" He shakes his head. "We.. I don't even know. She got scared and ran. So I've tried to give her space. But I hate it. Anna speak to her for me. Please I need to know she's okay."
Anna reluctantly agrees. But whilst waiting on y/n to reply. She wants answers.

"So since when?" She asks him, but she watches him throwing his hands up to his face.
"Do we need too? We might be over do why do I need to explain." Anna looks at Paul stropping but also quite worried.
"Summer. When we were all on holiday together. It was stupid. Even then.. she, we should've told you, that we kissed and enjoyed hanging out. It honestly just went from there."
Anna looks at him. "What? Summer and you didn't think to tell me?" He shakes his head. "We always done it not here, always away from Tallinn. Not that it makes much difference now. She isn't speaking to me and I only wanted to tell you when I was sure that there was something between us." Anna smiles at Paul.

"I don't know what to tell you. I did find it weird for her being 'single' and always out to not end up with guys. Now I suppose I know why now. Did you know about him and y/n?" Anna turns to their older brother, who has just walked in. "Who?" Ralf asks, fully knowing y/n through Paul and not Anna. "I thought he was seeing someone in Italy." Paul slaps his forehead. "Is she from here? Do you know her?" Ralf asks Anna looking surprised, but he knows more than Anna ever will. Anna glares at Ralf. "You knew all along then?" She asks again. Ralf nods his head. "Yeah, I knew they were hanging out. What have I missed?" Anna shakes her head, looking at her phone. "Well I hope you are happy Paul. She doesn't want to speak to me. OR you." Paul looks up, gnawing on his lip. "Well you did call her a fake friend... you do need to apologise. Can you just ask her to unblock me.. Please." Anna shakes her head. "No. I'm not getting involved. Like you shouldn't have done in the first place." Paul glares at Anna. "You know she's a nightmare to be in a relationship with."

"Why do you even care? We leave for Italy in a couple days." Ralf asks Paul. Who shakes his head at his siblings. He quickly changes and heads to y/n's house. Her Mum answers the door. "She is downstairs.. in the gym I think." As Paul heads downstairs, he has been here many times before but usually in a big group or family gatherings. "What are you doing here?" Y/n asks him immediately when she notices him. "I can't leave, without trying to fix us. I know what Anna said has annoyed you and I get that... It's annoyed me too. But I still need to see if I can sort us." Paul says as quickly as he can. Worried that she is going to throw him out. "I'm not a fake friend though... Never have I ever been fake Paul. Nor would I ever be." He closes his eyes. It's obvious to see, that it is Anna that is hurting her the most. "SO what does that mean for us, y/n? You can call it... You are scared and I get that. I do. But we managed to stay together on the DL for months. As soon as you started to tell people it got weird and different. It changed." As y/n's mum brings them down some drinks and snacks. "Not sure what you are eating these days Paul, so I have a variety... Oh have I walked in on something? Is she telling you why she has been crying herself to sleep most nights." Paul shakes his head, his heart breaking. "Oh don't you start blubbering on me. I have enough with her." Paul has lost all his typical sarcastic, dry witty self and his confidence has taken a big battering. "I'm sorry." Y/n's mum looks confused. "Why are you sorry love. Have I missed something?" Paul looks at y/n who looks close to tears again. "Yeah. Looks like I'm not the only the one who didn't tell family." He smirks, feeling better that her mum didn't know about them.

As her mum leaves, y/n finds something to focus on and stares at it. "So.. Your family don't know either. Where do they think you have been going when you come to Italy?" Y/n sighs, at him. "What does it matter. You only had to tell me that you hadn't told Anna.. I could've done it." Paul shakes his head. "No. You haven't told your parents. Where did they think you were going? I'm sorry but I wanted to make sure I was feeling stuff for you, not in the typical way too." Y/n looks at him, confused and tears fully running down her face. "Fuck. Will you stop. Please. I can barely tell you now, when you are crying so hard." Paul grabs her face and wipes her tears away. "I love you. I'm in love with you, I think. I've never felt like this about someone before." Paul bends down in front of her, holding her knees to stabilise him. "Do you not think I am scared? What if something goes really wrong? Our families are friends and have been before we were all born. But I can't just let you walk away. I have gave you everything and will continue it. I love you. Please, can we just get over this major fuck up on my point. It is all on me."

Y/n's phone buzzes, they both glance at it. "Forgive him already..." Paul smiles. "Please baby, I don't want us to end." She looks at him, his messy fringe at a whole new level. Although still utterly terrified, by feelings and ideas that won't happen.
"If I make you as happy as I know you make me. Please say you'll give it one more go and I promise I won't waste it." Paul keeps going on.
But he smirks, as y/n grasps the side of his face. "Yes?" He asks her looking into her eyes. She ever so slightly nods her head and allows him to kiss her.
"I love you. I promise I won't let you done again."
He smiles as they nuzzle noses. One of the few things that she does that he knows it's why he is in love and only falling harder.
