Arthur and I were best friends since we were 15. We met in high school and instantly became friends. Since then, we didn't fight much. Until today. It's been three days since we're not talking to each other so I decided to go to his house. He will have no choice but to talk to me!

{Arthur's house}

I knock and a few seconds later, the door opens, revealing a mad Arthur.

Arthur: Oh... hi

Camila: Hey... I know you don't want to see me but we need to talk Arthur

I nervously play with my fingers, still standing on the gallery while he cross his arms over his chest.

Arthur: Oh really? About what?

Camila: About our fight

Arthur: Oh, so now you want to talk about it? After three days of ignoring me?

He says in a bitter tone, making me regret.

Camila: Arthur... I don't wanna lose you, and I know you don't want to lose me either. So stop being so childish!

Arthur furrows his brow upon hearing my comment.

Arthur: Excuse me? Me, childish? Are you serious? Who's the one that started all this for nothing? Who's the one who went silent for three whole days, huh? And you say I'm the childish one... how ironic

Arthur's voice is loud, I slowly turn around and start walking to the front gate.

Camila: Okay fine, then let's not talk about it

Seeing me leave, he grabs my arm.

Arthur: don't. Fine, let's hear what you have to say

I let out a deep sigh and think about what I should tell him. I cross my arms.

Camila: I'm sorry I started this fight and I didn't mean to hurt your feelings

Arthur looks down, still obviously upset

Arthur: You could've at least sent me a text or something to apologize... But now you come here and expect us to be okay like nothing happened

Camila: I didn't want to make you even more upset because I really, really don't wanna lose you

My eyes get teary at the end of my sentence without me realizing it, except Arthur did.

Arthur: Don't cry... Dammit why do you always have to cry?

He sighs and pulls me closer, giving me a warm hug. I cry and laugh at the same time, apologizing once again.

Camila: I'm sorry again

Arthur: Stop crying... Or I swear I'll cry too

The man says, hugging me even tighter and running a hand up and down my back.

Camila: So we're alright now?

I ask, getting out of his embrace to look at him in the eyes. He gives me a reassuring smile and nods.

Arthur: Yeah, we're alright. I'm still kind of angry at you but it's fine I guess...

He runs a hand through his hair, feeling a bit flustered rethinking about how we were so close only a couple of seconds ago.

Camila: I'm still sorry...

He sigh and looks away, still feeling a bit embarrassed.

Arthur: It's fine, just... don't do it again. Next time you're upset, just talk to me, alright? Don't let me worry like an idiot...

Camila: You were worried?

I say with a teasing smile. His cheeks turn slightly pink, and he proceeds to hide it with his hand.

Arthur: Oh shut up, don't make fun of me

He playfully slaps my arm, earning a fake offended grin from me

Arthur: and yeah, I was worried because I... care about you, obviously...

Camila: Awnnnn how sweet of you Arthur Leclerc

Arthur: Shut up you're making me blush

He looks away and huffs, folding his arms in an attempt to look unbothered, but failing miserably. He can't fool me. The redness on his cheeks betrays him. I chuckle at his nervous state.

Camila: alright, alright, my bad

Arthur: Ugh you're so annoying. Come on in

He opens the door and motions for me to come in. I thank him for letting me in and close the door behind me.

Arthur: What do you want to do?

He leans against the wall, crossing his arms and still trying to hide the fact that he's blushing from the previous teasing.

Camila: Ouuu let's watch a movie!

Arthur: Sure, sounds good! As long as it's not a horror movie- we don't want to repeat last time

He chuckles lightly, recalling the memory of the time we both decided to watch "The conjuring". After the first jump scare, we didn't let go of each other for the rest of the movie.

Camila: Haha absolutely not

He laughs and shakes his head.

Arthur: Alright then, what do you wanna watch? Choose wisely or I'll make fun of your taste for the rest of the night

Camila: How about "Inside Out"? Since the second one is getting out soon

Arthur's eyebrow raises slightly in suprise

Arthur: Inside Out? Okay then, that's acceptable. I'll allow it

He says in a somewhat mocking tone.

Arthur: Go ahead and start it then, I'll get the snacks

I nod and turn on the TV, searching for the movie we agreed to watch. Arthur comes back not long after with candies, popcorn and chocolate in his hands. He places them on the table in front of the white couch and then takes a seat beside me. I thank him and eat some candies, starting the movie at the same time.
