Behind Closed Doors: Maybe This Time ☆⁠ Selena Gomez x Fem!Reader ☆⁠

Chapter 8

There is a long awkward silence after Roger leave to give privacy to the two women who clearly have unfinished business and he doesn't want to meddle in.

Y/N gives Roger a pleading look but he just send her a 'fix whatever need fixing between you two' look. She sighs defeatedly. She doesn't know what to say or do since the singer came in her apartment unannouced.

"What are you doing here? How did you get my address?", she asks.

"I came here to apologize. I know that I went M.I.A. to you and that's not okay, and I'm sorry.", Selena explains ignoring the second question.

Y/N stays silence. She doesn't know whether she will accept the apology or not. It does not have an explanation why she did what she did. Half of her tells her to accept it and the other half is the opposite.

Selena, on the other hand, cannot read the younger woman sitting in front of her. But she knows she has to say more than just saying the word 'I'm sorry'.

"I had to take care of things, in my career since I don't see myself doing more than releasing an album, touring and stuff nor I would release another album after that.", the singer pauses.

"And go to hospital to get chemo.", she finishes.

Of course, Y/N couldn't forget that. It was her who witnessed how they started to know, and the signs that they thought were normal. It still hurts her thinking about it.

"It's okay.", her voice comes out as whisper. She doesn't trust her voice at the moment.

"I know it looks like I'm just making excuses for me not sending a simple 'Hi, I'm doing good. I had fun hanging out with you.'... I want you to also know about that. I'm sorry."

"It's okay." It's totally my fault that I expected.

"Are we okay?", the older woman asks trying to read Y/N, again.

"Yes, I forgive you but don't you ever ghost me like that.", Y/N threatens.

"Is it the new term now?"

"Yeah, most people on social media use that."

Selena's lips form an 'o' shape, "I don't loiter online. It's toxic for me."

"Where did you get my address?", Y/N changes the topic.

"From Mandy.", she answers.

"Of course.", Y/N rolls her eyes.

"And you really travel this far..."

"Who says I'm here only for this?", the singer asks teasingly. Y/N glare and throw a pillow at her.

They talk for a an hour before Selena has to go.

"Are you going to stay for dinner?", Y/N asks wishing that the singer will but unfortunately the universe isn't on her side at the moment.

"I can't something to attend to. I'm sorry.", Selena, no matter how she wants to say 'yes', she just couldn't because it is a hectic schedule for her. She just made time for this which she is thankful it turns okay. They are okay now.

Y/N gives her a small smile before nodding her head, "Right.", she understands but can't help but to feel sad.

"Are you free this coming saturday? Taylor is throwing a party. Or did you receive an invitation from her already?", it is clear that the singer is somehow nervous talking to Y/N, at her presence. She is afraid she would make herself look a fool.

"I didn't recieve any, and~~,", she drags the last word while she checks her schedule on Saturday. "I'm free.", she says looking athe the singer and putting down her phone.
