one week later

i woke up to my phone buzzing uncontrollably beside my head. groggily, i picked it up and looked at it, the bright light making me squint.

i look at the contact and my heart drops. i slide the answer button across the screen. "mason? are you okay?"

there was some light breathing on the other line before he finally said "can i come over please?" relief washes over me for a brief moment before i'm pulled back to reality: he wants to come over to talk.

"yeah mase of course." i can hear him close and lock the door before getting into his car. "are you okay?"

the same silence follows but eventually he confesses "yeah, i just need to see you."

i let out a breath i didn't know i was holding, "okay, let me know when you're here." and we continued to talk and catch up on the last week until mason got to my house. it felt nice to talk to him again.

"but yeah brooke placed second in fast and third in slow. she was really happy, we had a cake and everything." he tells me as i was invited to watch brooke at her dance competition on saturday but since their mother wasn't all that happy with me two days before i thought it best not to show up.

i smile lightly "tell her i'm sorry i missed it but im really happy for her. next time i see her we'll celebrate." and he promises me he'll relay the message.

"i'm outside ba-... babe." my breath hitches when he hesitates before calling me babe and i sigh slightly when he actually does. that same happy feeling returning to me just for a split second.

i creep downstairs and unlock the door, seeing mason standing right in front of me for the first time all week, hiding from the rain under the cover above the door. i step outside and gently shut the front door behind me. "what's up?"

he takes a deep breath before looking back up at me. "i know i should've believed you. even when it got debunked i should've called, and to be honest i don't know why i didn't. but i should've, and i know that now. i'm so sorry for not believing you from the beginning baby."

with teary eyes i move a drooping curl away from his eye and hold his cheek, catching any tears that have already fallen onto his face. "you had every right to do everything you did, and i know that. it's hard when i'm saying one thing and the rest of the world is saying another."

i take a deep breath before continuing "i understand and i'm not mad or upset because i've cried enough this week." i know saying this was a low blow, but i didn't intend it that way. "sorry that sounds wrong but you know what i mean. i love you mason." he smiled at me. "there is nothing that could be thrown at us that could change that."

mason puts both his hands on my cheeks, cupping my face before pulling me in to kiss him. it feels familiar and says a thousand words that we could never even form into a sentence.

when we pull away he says "i'm sorry for shutting you out," while pressing our foreheads together.

all i can do is smile before telling him "you don't need to be." after taking a deep breath i speak up again "just hold me here and now."

and we spent the rest of the night dancing and kissing in the rain, only for both of us to deal with a cold the morning that followed.

we put an announcement out in social media, telling everyone the photo was old and the rumours were fake. of course some people still didn't believe me, but mason did now, so i didn't care.
