Sofia's POV
I rummaged through Maddy's things, doing my best to keep an eye out for her old device. Bingo. I pull the phone out of the bottom of her drawer and hold down the power button, turning it on for the first time in months. The phone is perfectly fine, Nate had just gotten her a new one to start using. Probably to stalk her every move or some shit.
I downloaded a phone app considering that this one had no service. She only kept it for pictures and other important things. Luckily, I had memorized Fezco's phone number by heart. The first time I dialed him, he declined almost immediately. I rung him again. Got declined. I felt my heart race pick up, as I was running out of ideas. I can't go see him, my mom will change the locks. Knowing her, she'll probably put locks on this fucking windows too just to make a point.
me: It's Sofia
Moments later, the screen lit up and I immediately answered his call. I explained the situation to him and waited for his response. "Thats fuckin crazy. Ya mom not lettin you come back out tonight either?" he asks. "No, Fez. She says that I have to go with Devin or else she's kicking me out of the house" I explain to him. "Come live with me" he jokes. "Fez, that's not funny right now" I tell him. "Who said I was jokin?" he says in a serious tone. I heard him spark something on the other end of the phone. "It's really not that simple..." I respond.
"Somethin about you going on a vacation with your abusive ex boyfriend without a phone don't sit right with me. Don't seem safe at all." he says. "I just thought I would let you know what's going on before it happens. He will most likely buy me a new phone, and I'll text you as soon as possible." I reassure him.
There was a brief silence. "Sofia, if you don't find a way to contact me while you're on this trip, I'm comin out there and I'm gonna find you. I'm not fuckin joking right now either" he tells me. We both fall silent for a moment. "Fair enough" I respond, hanging up the phone.

Devin picked me up that morning, and I was not excited. He pulled out of the Starbucks drive-thru and I sipped on my strawberry cream pink drink. "So uh, your mom answered the phone before you did this morning..." he trailed off, waiting for an explanation. "I broke my phone yesterday at the party" I said bluntly. "Really? How...?" he asks, turning to face me. "I broke it." I said, raising my eyebrows at him so he got the point.
"Oh... uh, what got you so angry?" he asked as if he was dumb. "You calling me" I told him honestly. "I told you to tell me that we were going on a trip, Sofia. What's so frustrating about that?" he questions. "You told me. You didn't ask me" I reminded him. "I did ask you, Sofia. Multiple times actually. I sent you links and ideas and all types of shit in case you forgot" he argues with me.
"Yeah, you did. I never agreed to any of those things, okay?" I respond. "You know, even though we're broken up and you didn't technically agree to going on this vacation, you're acting like an ungrateful bitch right now. At least I'm trying to get you back at all, okay? I could have just been like fuck you and chose that other girl." he rambles.
"Is that what you wanna do Devin? Cause go right the fuck ahead, nobody is stopping you. She can have you at this point. You dragged ME on this trip and I have no problem opening this fucking door in the middle of the highway and-" "Okay- will you just calm the fuck down Sofia? God, you're so stupid. Obviously I was being sarcastic, okay? I don't want that bitch. I want us to work things out, it just feels impossible to have a conversation with you when you're rejecting me all the time" he says.
"Why wouldn't I reject you? You literally cheated on me." I mention. "People make mistakes, okay? You're being so childish, why are you focusing on the past? You should be excited about where we're going instead of constantly throwing what I did back in my face." he tells me. "Why the hell would that excite me? Plus, now my phone is broken. I can't even take good pictures while we're out here" I complain.
"Look, I'll get you a new phone, okay? Just stop treating me like we haven't been together for years." he tells me. I decide to shut up, considering he agreed to get me a new phone. All I have to do is wait for us to make that stop, hopefully before we hit the airport.
It would really suck if I had to endure an entire plane ride listening to his mouth.
