All I want

Lacy

Ivy Lee's Pov:

When I said my ex boyfriend cheated on me with a random chick I didn't exactly mean a random chick.

I ment my ex friend, Lacy Benson. Her family did business with my grandpa and our parents are the same age.

Therefore they became friends.

Therefore we became friends.

Lacy slept with my boyfriend and didn't bother to call when he exploited me to the media.

"Hi Ivy," she smiles, her brown eyes light up. Her hair that used to be brown is now a lighter shade, close to blonde is tied up with white bows. She's dressed in a pale pink dress that falls off her shoulders, making her look perfect. She's always been stunning, everyone knew it. People would stop and stare when they saw her. They had to. You couldn't walk past her and not think, "wow she's pretty" or wonder how she was so naturally beautiful.

After I found out her and Jonathan slept with together, that thing she had, that sparkle... I envied it. The beauty, the kindness, the intelligence, I wanted it. I wanted it so badly.

I always knew I was pretty, it's not a shock, but I like hearing it from others.
I never worried about it until I found out about Lacy and Jonathan. Lacy was always kind. She always had good grades. She was always everything I wasn't and everything I was at the same time.
I started to hate her for everything she did and it took me almost 2 years to stop hating her.
Now she's standing in front of me again and nothing feels right.

"Why are you here?" I ask, gripping the railing of the white wooden banister, wishing I was the Hulk so I could just rip it off.

"My parents were invited, I didn't think you would be here..." She averts her eyes around the room trying to look at anything that isn't me.

I roll my eyes, "you didn't think I'd be here at my parents anniversary party?"

She shakes her head no, "you never liked these things-"

"People change. Remember." I scoff, walking away from her.

"Vee, I'm sorry." I don't even care about her apology anymore. I want her to leave me alone. "I know I messed up when I slept with Jonathan, but I swear it wasn't my intention."

Wasn't her intention?

"Kate was there Lacy. She saw you go up to him. She saw you kiss him. She heard to talking to him. She told me everything. And I didn't believe her the first time. But then I saw you with him."

This whole thing happened when Kate and Lacy went to a party and Jonathan's whole baseball team was there so he went as well, but I had to go to my my mom's cousins wedding.

"You can never say it wasn't your intention."

"I didn't kiss him he kissed me!" She looks so innocent right now. It's only making me feel like shit even more now. "I'm sorry that I slept with him, I was drunk and caught up in the moment-"

"Caught up in the moment? Lacy you lied to my face when I confronted you. You didn't even call after the pictures got leaked. Lacy everything was going to hell and then you didn't even bother to say sorry." I say without hesitation.

"Ivy-" she stops herself before looking down, "I want to make it up to you. Please. I'm really sorry that I hurt you." I look over her shoulder to see a pissed off Lily and Rowan staring straight ahead. They both look like they are about to fight someone and I think that someone is Lacy.

"Okay, but go anywhere else that is not near me or my family." I try to be polite but I can even hear the aggressive undertone.  Lacy scampered off somewhere outside and I can't help but feel bad for snapping at her.
