{ONE NIGHT}

*Nine*

{Reunited at last!!}

maliea's pov

Friday, September 10, 7 pm [outside of 5th street house 34]

"Finn?" I weakly shouted over to all my friends looking sad over something. The last time I checked, I had been kept captivated in this house for a week with barely any food, and very little water. 

Mya had been crying into Dimitri's chest but looked up to see me, Savannah looked blankly out in the road while right next to the sidewalk, but looked puzzled when she saw me. Corbin looked down at the ground, and Finney collapsed on the ground, Gwen trying to comfort him while she was crying also. Everybody looked on the porch, to see me standing there. The cuts and how hungry I was, didn't matter at that moment. I missed my best friends, I missed Finney. All of them got up from where they were and just stared at me with a thankful smile.

 "Maliea.." I made my way slowly off the porch and collapsed into Finney's arms. "We're no good?" Savannah and Mya's fake pout as I laughed, bringing them in a group hug. 

"We should get you food!" Corbin suggested while giving Finney a look, Finney just rolled his eyes at him. "Gwen!" I hugged her tightly. "I was so scared Maliea.." "Don't be, I'm here now and Corbin your right, we should." Sadly I couldn't go, I needed to be checked at the hospital, so they went and got me some food and brought it back so we could all eat together. 

Shortly after they all had left my cuts were either stitched up or covered with bandages. Soon after they came back annoyed, each holding a KFC bag in their hands. "Two people at a time my ass." Gwen mocked the receptionist making everyone laugh except Mya. 

"Yo, you good?" Dimitri asked Mya while pulling her to the side of the room concerned. "She's clearly into you Mitri! Can't you see it!?" "She's like eleven." Dimitri jokes. "Can we please not fight with one another!? We're here to have a good time with Maliea." Savannah said angrily "I'm not gonna be here if she's here then!" Mya angrily points out Gwen. "Listen, I'm tired of the bullshit between you and Gwen. This is supposed to be a happy time for all of us. Our friend suffered so much in the past week and you guys think it's such great timing to fight over a crush!?" Savannah yelled over the commotion happening. "I need time. Sorry, Maliea." Mya shrugged and stormed out of the room angrily while Dimitri followed quickly behind her. 

"Was that my fault?" Gwen slumped down in a chair on the verge of tears. "Gwen, that whole thing wasn't your fault. You have a crush on her boyfriend, she can't change how you feel about Dimitri." I sighed standing, pulling her into a hug. "Are we just gonna waste all this food!?" "Oh, actually me, and Savannah have to go." "We do?" Savannah questioned. "Yes! Let's go now." Corbin grinded his teeth at Finney and left with the curly-haired girl struggling to keep up. I looked towards the ground muddled at what just occurred again. I'm not in the mood I thought as I reached over for my KFC and started to eat. After a good 20 minutes of me, Finney, and Gwen sitting there in silence we started to talk. Finney and Gwen left two hours later. And I'm getting released from the hospital tomorrow.
