"Are you sure he's just a good friend?.."

"Yes mom. I told him all I wanted to be was a friend to him, but I regret it now. He's got a new girlfriend already and—" I was going to say more, but I just started crying again.

My mom hugged me, I got tears all over her new sweater, but she didn't seem to mind.

"This doesn't mean you aren't in trouble for flipping off a teacher though."

I giggled a bit, "I know it sounds crazy, but I just did that so that I could go home. Hearing him say he had a girlfriend just made me feel kind of.. I don't know.. jealous?"

I saw my mom smirking at me, " 'just a close friend' my ass." "Mom!" "Sorry. It seems like you really like this boy though. Are you positive hes just a good friend?" "Yes! I couldn't imagine us kissing again or anything like that—"

Saying that made me imagine it. And it made my face turn red. It made me feel like there were exploding fireworks in my stomach. There was no way I was in love with him, he's just a friend. right?..

(Adrien agreste vibes😜)

"Couldn't imagine it hm?" My mom finally started to drive off. "Shut up!" I was silent for a long period of the car drive, when I remembered Gwen inviting me to a party close to where I lived.

"Hey mom?" "Mhmmm" "can I go to a party? I think it's tomorrow." "Alcohol?" "No" "drugs?" "No" "hippies?" "No!" "Okay, sure. Don't make out with your boyfriend or anything there. I can usually take that stuff but when I walked in on that for the first time Jeez, I couldn't imagine anyone else having to go through that."

I hit her playfully and we both laughed, making small talk for the rest of the drive.

*The next day*

I put a clip in my hair as I stepped away from my vanity to face Gwen. "You look awesome! That dress suits you so well!" She gave me a massive hug. "I don't think Robin is going, so we don't have anything to worry about!"

Boy was she wrong.

Not only was Robin there, but he brought Kate.

As soon as I walked in they were the first couple I spotted. Gwen couldn't see them until she had noticed me staring, and she offered to walk me home a couple of times.

"Are you sure?" "Yeah.. if I can't handle a little boy at a party what would I be able to handle?" Except I couldn't handle him. I saw them dancing together on the dance floor, getting all up in eachothers face. I felt him staring at me every couple of minutes, I just acted like I didn't notice.

*robins pov:*

I was dancing with Kate, I hated pretending I really loved her. She kept trying to kiss me. Every time she got close to me I imagined she was Y/n, I was hoping she would be here, but I hadn't seen her walk in.

As Kate closed her eyes and leaned in slowly, I saw her walk in. "Oh shit, Y/n's here." I said, trying to distract her so that Kate could get off of me. I looked at her almost every minute, I couldn't get her out of my head.

I was hoping that when I did look at her, she would turn around and hold eye contact with me. But she didn't even look at me once, she had probably even forgotten who I was.

I don't exactly know what happened. We were getting much closer, then when I went out with Kate she suddenly started acting distant. I missed her, actually. She was the only reason I was with Kate, I just had to forget about her and move on. I didn't want to, but she told me straight up that she didn't wanna be any more than friends.

I'm still disappointed over that, right when I thought we could really have something she tells me she doesn't want 'us' to be a thing.

And so there I am. Standing on the dance floor with my girlfriend I didn't even like, replaying the moment when we kissed for the first time.

Who would've guessed that someone else was doing that at the same time? Missing me just as much as I missed them.
