Him.

Chapter 6

*Cierra's POV*

The last time I saw Nash, he was running away holding his chest. Weirdo.

I was now laying in bed, thinking about my day, how utterly horrible it was. I had just washed all of the paint out of my hair and all I could think about was why Nash wouldn't help me. He promised. I believed him. I really did.

I got a text just then. Oh shit it was from Nash! I got a weird feeling in my stomach, it was excitement, but hate. Hatecitement. I think.

|Nash| Hey
|Me| Hi
|Nash| Can we talk please
|Me| Uh yeah I guess
|Nash| Listen Cierra I'm so sorry about today.
|Me| It's cool.
|Nash| I should have helped you
|Me| But you didn't.
|Nash| yeah I know and I can't tell you how sorry I am.
|Me| As I said before, it's cool
|Nash| Can you come over? Wanna hang?
|Me| Nah sorry man
|Nash| Well shit it's not 'cool' then is it?
|Me| no it's fine I just don't wanna drive all the way over to your house. lol.
|Nash| Fine then I'm coming to yours
|Me| uh okay

To be honest I was really excited to see him. I didn't want us to fight. It sucked.

*Nash's POV*

Nows my chance. I'm going to fix this right now. I knocked on the door and Cierra's mom answered. "Hey hon you here to see Ci?" she said.

"Yeah may I go up?" I asked.
"Sure no problem."

I loved Cierra's mom. She was so chill.

I knocked on Cierra's door. She answered it and let me in. We sat on her bed and just kinda gathered our thoughts for a second. "So what's up" she asked. Her voice sounded angelic.
"Nothing much I came to fix this."
"Fix this? What us?" she said
"Yeah. I ruined it."
"Ruined what?"
"Our friendship, I'm so sorry." I looked her in her eyes as I said this. I meant it.

She looked away and just stared at the ground. "Ci?" I asked.

She looked at me, but her eyes were full of tears. That pain in my chest came back. It seems like every time it comes back a little bit harder, a little bit more painful.

I didn't know how to react, so I just hugged her. I hugged her so tight. "You promised." she whispered.

As soon as I heard those words, I broke down. Tears slipped from my eyes. "I'm so sorry Cierra. I don't deserve you as a friend or anything. You deserve better."

"You promised and you left me there." she sobbed.

The pain was getting unbearable. I whimpered a bit and shut my eyes to block it out. I hugged her tighter. I wasn't going to let go. Ever.

Cierra looked up at me through her glossy eyes and I saw her tear stained cheeks. I slowly pressed my thumb on her cheek and wiped her tears away. She just looked at me. "Don't cry because of me. You don't deserve to cry over anyone." I told her.

"You're worth it." she whispered. Those words hit me really hard. Cierra said that I was worth it. I meant something to her.

"Cierra Smith, you really are amazing."
"Yeah, at crying." she laughed. But she was still crying. She was laughing and crying. Hah.

I chuckled. I was still hugging her. I didn't ever want to let go.

"I'm sorry." I repeated
"You don't have to keep saying that."
"Yes I do you didn't deserve what you got today."
"Maybe not but you're here now and that's all that matters."

Wow she was perfect.

*Cierra's POV*

Nash hugged me so tight. It felt so right. I know that's super cheesy, but its the truth. he truly was sorry for not keeping his promise.
