Synopsis: You and Thorne reunite after a blank period.
[2nd person]

There you were, sitting at a glass table in the middle of Joshua's backyard. The smell of marijuana and strong liquor filled your nose as you swirled the last bit of the mystery drink in a red solo cup. Throwing the remains of your drink down your throat, you rose to your feet ready for some entertainment. It was a dull night, you would admit, but the only thing that kept you going was Thorne fucking Baker. He was your summertime fling for a while until you just randomly stopped talking for some time, it was a push and pull kind of relationship.

You stumbled over your feet, finding your way through the trashed house. Josh was going to dread the following day, for sure. Taking some turns here and there, you started to doubt if Thorne was even here, but you carried on; clinging to that little bit of hope that was left.

"Y/n?"
Turning around, your eyes met with his. His blonde hair that hung over his face, complimenting all his features so perfectly.
"Thorne! I was just looking for you.", You beamed a goofy smile, leaning on the hallway wall for support."For what reason, huh?", His 6ft frame was close to towering over you. His cheeks were red from all the alcohol he'd been drinking, you could still smell the liquor that lingered on his clothes. "I just wanted to talk, we haven't caught up in a while.", You looked up at him through your eyelashes, chewing the inside of your cheek awaiting for his response. "You just wanted to talk? Or... something else?", Thorne raised an eyebrow, you clearly peaked his interest. "No, Thorne. You're drunk. Maybe another time." You gave a chuckle as you grabbed the blonde's hand, dragging him through the crowded house.

The two of you walked through Josh's neighbourhood, taking drags out of a joint you kept handy. "What's new, L/n? Seeing anyone?", Thorne looked at you and passed the J back. "No actually. I was kind of waiting on you, as embarrassing as it may seem." His eyes widened, a rosy blush crept up on his cheeks, but it was merely disguised as the cold weather getting to him. "Oh really? I wish you'd told me sooner.", He chuckled. Your heart dropped, was he seeing someone new. Surely not, it had only been just less than a month. "How come?", You cleared your throat and dodged any sort of eye contact possible. "I guess I just wanted to see you sooner, is all." Thorne passed the remains of the joint to you to finish, allowing a comfortable silence to fall upon you two.

You made your way back to Joshua's. There was a quiet stream of music making its way around the yard and most people had left. The remaining ones were either passed out on the lawn or just Josh's friends. Thorne held the front door open for you, ushering you back inside as it was getting cold. "Some last drinks for us?", He asked. You stifled a laugh and nodded your head. As you followed him through the house for the last time, you could feel eyes linger on you, especially Thorne's friends' eyes. Looking around the room, you spotted Marric and Alex staring. Thorne picked up on this, "They're just jealous that I'm with you right now." "Sure.", You dragged the end of the word.

As you and Thorne sat on the cold, damp grass outside finishing your drinks, you'd realised that you missed this; the little moments with the blonde that eventually made you two grow closer.
"Thorne!", an unfamiliar sweet voice called out. The two of you turned to face the voice. A short statured woman with dark hair that went past her elbows stood at the sliding glass door. "I was wondering if you wanted to come to mine tonight, my roomates are out for a couple of days. Oh I'm Bella.", The girl walked towards you as you and Thorne stood up. She held out her hand for you to take it, you did. "I'm uh... Y/n. I'm Y/n.", You stood there with your mouth slightly agape, shifting your gaze towards Thorne. "I gotta go, Y/n. It was really nice seeing you again.", He laughed and gave you a quick hug, disappearing through the back door afterwards. You dropped your cup on the ground before slowly following, making your way to the couch. You plopped yourself in between Marric and Alex then just stared at the floor in disbelief.
"He's seeing someone new, Y/n.", Marric stated, handing you his plastic water bottle.
