BITCHES BROKEN HEARTS

nailea was never really open with relationships. it was almost as if she was too good for anybody. she's never dated anyone in her whole entire life, she didn't find much interest into that type of shit. you know those stupid ass relationships in the third grade? nailea was never in one of those relationships.

rue was surprised she even got into a relationship before nai. people always thought that rue and nailea were dating, that's why didn't find interest in them. it was weird, she was everything anyone would want, but she didn't even try to be in a relationship. she thought it was a waste of time.

elliot's point of view that the party

i hear nailea's voice and i freeze. i'm praying to god that he helps me out and not ruin this already. i think that maddy felt bad for me, so after nailea spoke up. maddy distracted the situation so that she wouldn't find out.

"boo. everyone likes you" maddy laughs at the end as if everybody knew this.

nailea rolls her eyes and takes my hand towards the campfire again, she looks clearly uncomfortable. she has her arms over her stomach and she has a broken look at her face. i think about how i should help her, all i can think is to give her a hug.

once i give her a hug, i feel her body soften from the touch and affection. she started crying after a while, i don't think it's the drugs either. i lift up her face with my index finger and look at her in the eyes. her eyes are red from drugs and crying, you can see the tear stains on her cheeks.

"what's wrong?" i ask in a soft tone, quiet but loud enough so you can hear it over the music.

"people keep looking at me, in a weird way." she says in a sad voice. i can visualize all the guys looking at her up and down, as if she was just some object.

"it's okay, i'm here. i wont leave your side." i say with a smile, trying to lighten up her mood.

nailea's point of view

while i was in his arms. i couldn't help but wonder why rue asked me if i liked elliot. usually I am very confused in my life. whether it was with my parents, or even deciding what I want to eat. though, I know for a fact that I like elliot.

you guys may be wondering if I told rue, which she is my best friend in the whole entire world, i did tell her. I thought she was going to tell him, so that's why I rushed over to the group before anything could happen. I do want to tell him soon, but just not now. I don't want to ruin anything like I did last time.

i know that if i tell him, he doesn't feel the same way. it's this fear i have of getting rejected, honestly it's a scary ass fear. my parents just try and try to be in my life, but they know i'm going to reject them.

elliot pulls up my chin with his pointer finger and looks at me with a look on his face. almost sad or worried, i don't know why he even would bother with dealing up with me. rue already said is a full time job.

"are you okay?" elliot asked me with a soft voice.

"oh yeah, sorry i completely broke down in front of you. you don't deserve that, holy shit we just met. i'm so sorry-" i rambled on until he cuts me off.

"it's okay, i want to help you. don't worry i'm not leaving" he smiles as if he was being honest.

"are you sure you want to deal with me? i'm telling you rue says it's a full time job, even on drugs." i ask, just making sure we want to make a commitment on being my friend.

"i'm positive and rue doesn't know what she's talking about. she's one of the most laziest person i've ever met." elliot said with a chuckle.

i smile up at him and just can't thank god enough for giving me someone else in my life. it makes me hopeful for me living past the age eighteen. it makes me happy to be alive, excited even.

elliot's point of view

i can't help it, but stare at nailea's face. i mean, who wouldn't? i think about this for a long time. i want to have her as more of a friend, but i need to wait. we barely met today.

i hear people chanting that the new year is coming. i look at nailea with pleading eyes, asking if i she wants to do it. i can't seem to speak up, but i force myself to.

"can i kiss you?" i ask politely because it would be rude if i didn't.

nailea doesn't respond for another ten seconds, while the countdown was happening. i started to worry because it would be awkward if she just walked away, which gives me another sign that she doesn't like me back.

once it hit 5 seconds everything changed.

"5"

"4"

"3"

"2"

"1"

nailea grabbed my face and kissed me, i kissed her back instantly, but we pulled apart when we heard gasps.
