all stories should be in Y/N's pov unless stated otherwise. -A

concept: the theory of someone who was previously in your life visiting you in your sleep because they are unable to reach you physically.

"You done yet?"

"Almost. Just have a few more dishes to clean and then I'll be off to bed." I could feel a pair of arms wrap around my body along with some weight on my shoulder. I glance down to see Blaire resting her chin, watching as I do the dishes.

"You sure you don't wanna stay up and watch that movie? Could always get that cuddle sesh going." Wrapping up with the dishes, I dry my hands off while giving my full attention to my roommate. "I'm alright, work has me exhausted. Maybe tomorrow?"

Blaire keeps her hold on me, embracing me a bit longer. It had been awhile since the both of us could have some quality time together. The two of us (Mainly myself) were consumed with work for the past two weeks. "I miss you, Y/n." she mumbled on my shoulder.

"I miss you. I promise that we'll have a movie night tomorrow. Okay?" she nods while giving me a tight squeeze before letting go of me. I turn; now fully facing the brunette, raising my hand up to my mouth; covering my yawn. "I'll see you in morning yeah?"

"Goodnight Y/n." Blaire leaves a gentle kiss on my cheek before returning to her room. After entering my room, I strip myself from my work clothes; putting on pajama pants and an oversized graphic tee.

"Finally off my feet." I mumble to myself while plopping onto my bed, letting my body sink into the mattress. A sigh escapes my lips while I look up at the ceiling.

This was the point of the night where I just stare at the ceiling and decompress myself with my thoughts. It was as if I saw every single thought I had leaving my head. I reached over for my phone, opening instagram. This was my usual nighttime routine.

Scrolling through my feed, my phone screen illuminates from the numerous posts I come across, catching up with my friends and mutuals.

"Tony went to Paris with Jacklyn. Nice." I say quietly to myself as I continue to scroll through my feed. At this point, I decided to look through the story list above the homepage. As I tap through stories, I stumble across a mutual who posted a tan dog waiting by a door.

"That dog looks familiar."

The pup looked exactly like a dog owned by someone I used to know.

The comparison alone let my mind wander a bit more, so I did what any normal person would do. I began typing on the search bar for her name hoping I wasn't still blocked.

I was shocked to see that I was no longer blocked.  My thumbs hovered over the story highlights, wondering what is it that my ex has been up to.

Ariana and I had ended things on somewhat mutual terms. We had grown apart for sometime and decided that maybe things would be better if we stayed friends.

It didn't last a week until we began blocking each other.

It became a pattern of blocking each other back and forth, and breaking no contact. Overtime I guess she couldn't handle it anymore so she cut it off for good. It's been about a year since then.

I had been doing my own thing and enjoying my life. Throughout my time without her, while there were some difficult days, I also had great days. I couldn't complain for how the way things were now.

Looking through her highlights I've come across many pictures of her visiting new places all throughout the states. She seems happy. I caught myself beginning to smile as I stumbled across a photo of her with her friends that I met once before. I wonder if they ever think of me.
