JUST FRIENDS

Barely Survived

Yelena's POV:

This girl better start talking because staying out late is not bad but not answering the phone? You got the wrong person.
"So?"
I said waiting for her to give me an answer
"My car kinda ran out of gas and we were waiting for a tow truck then after that I got gas and took her home"
She spoke with a tremble in her voice.
It looked like she was lying but she wouldn't lie to me...right.

I let her go and gave her a hug.
"Just..don't stay out late without picking up my calls again or you won't walk straight again for days"
I let and looked at her when I heard her giggle.

"What's funny?"
I questioned her.
"Sounds like something I did to you"
She responded with a big smirk on her face
I rolled my eyes and pushed her face out of my way to go grab some hot sauce and chicken.
"Your so nasty"
I replied shaking my head.

She still looked tense though like a secretive tense.
'She would never cheat on you I mean she can barely even go a day without tripping on herself'
I was unsure but I still ignored my gut and continued to trust.
After I finished oven heating the chicken I went to go watch some home alone which got some laughs out of me.
Kate came and sat down.
"So you know that whole scenario I told you at the door?"
She reminded me even though I still remembered. I modded so she can continue.
"Well that was...a lie."
When she said that I felt like I was betrayed.

"She um.. kissed me but I don't think she meant to. It was.. reflex?"
She continued making me roll my eyes.
"Reflex? Are you serious?"
I scoffed.
"And that worse thing about it is.."
Her words stopped coming out of her mouth.
I looked at her waiting for her to continue but I already knew what she was gonna say.
"U kissed back"
I continued for her.
She nodded making me stand up and go to my room.
I had to take a moment and think.
I mean Wanda was hot yes but cmon you just forgot I exist?
We didn't talk the whole and I wasn't planning to even say a word either.
So I got in the shower then went to sleep.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~the next morning~~~~~~~~~

Kate's POV:

I got up and immediately started thinking about how I was going to apologize.
'Roses? No that's too easy. Chocolate? Nope. Got it! An apology basket'
I got in the shower and change into some baggy beige pants with a black NY hat and a Betty Boop graphic tee shirt. I got in my car and went to a shop across the street.
I got her favorite snacks, candles, a red nosed reindeer plush, candles and some perfume.
I bought a picnic type basket and sorted it.
"Ok this should be good"

I was making my way to the cashier when I bumped into somebody making me drop the plush.
"Sorry I wasn't paying attention-" I was cut off by seeing who the person was.
Wanda.
"Oh. It's you"
I said blatantly as I shook her hand awkwardly and walked beside her.
"Wait"
She said abruptly as she grabbed my arm.

I looked back at her and slithered my way out of her grip.
"Look what happened at the rink we can just forget about it. Bye"
I started walking away but she continued.
"What if I don't want to forget?"
She said making me stop.
"Well your gonna have to"

I continued to check out and left the store.
As I got into my car I got a text message.
'Can we talk?'
"How the hell did she get my number"
'There's nothing to talk about'
I replied.
'You know that's a lie'
She wasn't lying with that one.
'Fine meet me at the salad bar near here'
I started my car and drove back to the house.

A couple minutes later I made it to the house and open the front doors with my keys.
"Hey bae you here?"
I asked knowing she wouldn't answer.
I opened the door and I saw her with her hair up in a ponytail with some hair left in the front as her frustrated eyes stared right back at me then back to a book she was reading as she scoffed.
'Dam I hit the lottery'
I went over and sat next to her.

"I'm sorry please forgive me I actually don't like her like that and I got you this apology basket with all your favorite things in it"

She looked up from her book to the basket and rolled her eyes.
"There's no hot sauce"
I pulled some hot sauce out of my bag and gave it to her.
Even though the book was in the way, I could tell she was smiling.
"Pinky promise you will never do anything like that again?"
She asked as she held up her pinky.
"Pinky promise."
I replied connecting our pinkies.
Before I knew it she threw me off the bed making me land on my back on the floor knocking the wind out of me.
"I hope you didn't think I wasn't gonna get my revenge любовь?"
She giggled helping me up.
"Fair enough"
I wheezed out.

I picked her up and sat her down with me as we watched The Hunger Games. Now that step one was done all I had to do was rearrange My friendship Wanda and boy is that gonna be a rocky ride.
