Jealousy || Jenna Ortega x Reader [GP]

Part 1

Y/N has been in love with her best friend, Natalie Frazier since they were both 10. Her feelings for her friend were unmatched by anything she had ever felt. So at the ripe age of 17, she decided to profess her feelings to her friend in the form of a letter. She spewed her heart out into words, folded them up, and neatly placed them into an envelope. It took her days to finally muster up the courage to give it to her crush. With the note in her pocket, she walked to the park to meet up with Natalie. It took everything in her to not bail out and turn around.

She saw Natalie sitting on the swings and walked up behind her. "Hey, Nat," Y/N said lovingly to her. "Y/N!" Natalie exclaimed and hugged her tightly. Y/N noticed a bandage on her face as they pulled away. "What happened?! Are you okay?!" she asked worried while softly holding her face.

"Yeah about that, I was playing tag with my brother which led to me smacking my face on the door frame," Natalie explained laughing. Y/N sighed and chuckled. Their friendship had always been like this. Y/N was the calmer friend that thought through everything she did or said. While Natalie was the hyper chance taker, she was impulsive and reckless. But maybe that's why they were such great friends.

They each took a seat on the swings and talked about their day. "I-", they both spoke at the same time. They laughed and Y/N gestured for her crush to speak first. "Okay, so I have some exciting news!" she said almost falling out of her seat.

     "I'm going to Europe!".

      Y/N's mouth hung slightly open at the information. "Oh my gosh. When?"

     "In the next couple of days. Just for Summer break though, not like I'll be living there," Natalie chuckled, "Although it would be nice to live there." Y/N's heart broke. Her crush is going away for the summer. On such short notice. "Imagine me in Italy drinking wine, looking off my terrace. You could visit me whenever you take off from your high-paying job," Natalie daydreamed. Y/N's heart broke even more. Her first love would be okay moving and living in a different country without her.

     Natalie noticed Y/N's sad demeanor. "Hey, it's okay. I promise we'll text and FaceTime every day," she reassured her. "Yeah, I was just really looking forward to the summer with you. But I'm glad you're doing this. You always wanted to travel the world," Y/N smiled.

"There's that smile I love to see! Now let's go get some food, I am starving," Natalie said jumping off the swing and almost falling. Y/N laughed at her which caught Natalie's attention. "What are you laughing at? Let's see you try and pull off an action movie star stunt like that," Natalie jokingly challenged. Feeling slightly down and wanting to better the mood, Y/N decided to do something on a whim.

     "Bet," Y/N smirked. She started her momentum to try and get the swing as high as possible. When she reached the max height on the swing, she screamed, "WATCH THIS SHIT," she jumped and caught a decent amount of air. She tucked and rolled as she landed. She stood up with her hands spread in triumph. "Tada!" she exclaimed. She didn't hear anything so she looked around for her friend. Natalie had her back towards Y/N picking something up from the ground.

     "Hey what you got there?" Y/N asked walking towards her. "Looks like a note or something. It says To Natalie. Strange."

     Y/N panicked and quickly tried snatching it from her friend's hand.  "Woah what's going on?" Natalie questioned. "Um, it's nothing. I'm sorry. I- That letter is mine. To you," Y/N shyly confessed. "Aw! Y/N, that's so sweet. I'll read it later. Let's go get some food," Natalie said excitedly as she put the letter in her jacket pocket. Y/N audibly gulped and followed behind her.

"Shit."
