"I cannot believe you're here! I have missed you so much. So many months away from each other! I missed my best friend. We had to do so much today! Thank God I got the weekend off for you." I was ecstatic.
Maggie was here! She came to visit me for the weekend. I was so happy that I finally got to see my friend. I haven't seen her in months. I have been wanting to meet and see her this past month, but everything has been so chaotic, I have no idea what to do now that she is here.
"I know! I am so happy I'm here too. We have been away from each other way too long. We have so much to do and talk about. I have some good news! I have a boyfriend. I was so worried about telling you, because I didn't want something to mess up between me and him, and then I have to break the news to you. We are so happy together. We have been together for about four months now. I guess I was just worried the first two months. I felt as though since I was coming to see you I will tell you now! In person!"
I was so happy for her. She has a boyfriend. She seems extra happy. I haven't seen her this happy in a long time. When we were younger, she wouldn't smile much. That was a bad thing. It is clear that this guy was treating her right.
"Maggie! I am so happy for you. I'm so happy that you're happy. And I'm so happy that you found somebody to treat you like the queen you are. You deserve the utmost."
"Thank you. Whatever happened to that guy? Will? William!" Maggie asked me.
What was I supposed to say? Tell her the truth? I don't really like telling anybody the truth. I told a lot of people that we were somewhat dating. How can I tell people the truth that I was just sleeping with him? He was a sweet guy, for the most part, bhe just wanted sex, and I wasn't really up for that. I guess after everything that happened with Anthony, I didn't really want somebody to have my heart again. Maybe that's why I was drawn to William.
"So about that, I ended up breaking things off of him. And truthfully, I didn't really care for him that much. It was just sex. And I hate that I'm that person, but it was fun while it lasted. He wasn't the best person in the world. He didn't deserve my time, and it sucks and it took me that long to realize that. Somebody who is actually a good person deserves my time."
"Absolutely you deserve a guy who will treat you amazingly. You always have. I wanna talk to you about something. Since we're talking about stuff like this. We never talked about this, I want to know though. I feel like I should know. I know it's your life, and it was the time that you had. But as friends, I think we should discuss this. If you don't want to, that's fine. I won't get mad. But I've always hated not knowing the truth."
"What are you talking about?"
"You and Anthony? I want to know. Maybe I was reading it wrong all these years, but I want to know. What happened?"
"Maggie..."
"Come on Marissa, the rumors are true once they?"
"Yeah. A lot happened. I wasn't sure what to do, I broke the girl code. I hated myself for it. You were my best friend, and not even just that, you hated Anthony. He always felt like he got the best of everything. Your parents, money, car, everything. But I was yours. And you didn't want me to be taken from you. And that was the biggest thing. I didn't want to upset you. But I was stupid. I did something stupid. And I hated myself for it. I was afraid of telling you, especially as time went on. I knew you would only be more and more mad. The more I hid it from you."
"Maybe then. Honestly, I probably would've been pretty pissed off. I'm not sure if I would even still be your friend. I hate to say that. But it's true. You're right, he always got everything. All the girls, all the friends, and not saying that I wasn't grateful for you, but he had everything. He was smart, and a football player, and everything that I've always wanted to have Andy. But I had you... You were so sweet, and the most amazing friend. And honestly a lot of times I took you for granted. And I'm sorry for that. I'm not sure what happened between you two, and honestly I don't even wanna know anymore. The more you talk, the more I know there's something down in there that you don't want to bring up. We don't have to talk about it. For so long I thought it was just you and him hooking up, but clearly the more you speak about it, the more it is not the truth."
