A/N: Because all of you are nice.. and gay, here's an update. Enjoy. 🙏🏻

Y/N's POV

"Are you sure you're okay?" I asked Normani as we drove to Burger King.

The coach pushed the cheering squad through a rigorous rehearsal, leaving them with no energy to go and buy food, so I offered to buy them lunch instead.

Mani, however, is fucking unreal. She practiced at the same time and put the same level of effort as the girls, but I didn't hear her gasping for air or see her trying to regain her breath. Even Emily, who's a workout devotee, got exhausted of their session.

Mani offered to accompany me since she didn't want to listen to the girls complain about how sweaty and tired they are. But it was awkwardly quiet once we were behind the wheel. Not a typical encounter for us.

"Of course, I am okay. I swear Y/N, there's nothing to worry about." She gave me a tight-lipped smile and I nodded at her in return.

The thing is, Normani cannot lie to me. I knew something was wrong because she barely spent time with her friends this week. I badly wanted to ask her why, but I knew that it's not my business.

"I am truly happy with how you and Emily are going. I can really tell that you two looked so good together." Normani broke the silence. Thank god.

"Well, I'd like to think that too. Whenever I wake up from her bed and look at her, I always ask myself how I got her." I chuckled.

"So it's safe to say that the relationship is going serious?" She asked as she gave her full attention to me.

"Well, we did not necessarily talk about it, but if it was from my point of view, I think so. We're pretty much doing everything a couple does, you know? We just need to put a label on it and it would be official, but it's not in our minds yet." I answered.

"Well, I wish you the very best, Y/N. You deserve that." Mani gave me a sincere smile.

Though I felt her sincerity, I can't brush off the fact that I am slightly bothered talking about this with her, only because she has been one of Camila's bestfriends for years. It felt weird talking about my current romance knowing that she pretty much witnessed mine and her best friend's relationship a year ago, and was one of the most supportive about it.

"This is okay, right Mani? I mean me talking about Emily to you when you know.. Camila.."

"Camila is my best friend, yes, but you are my friend too. You deserve the best, and I truly think that you're struggling to get that with your relationship with Camila. She's my best friend, but it's also healthy to acknowledge that there are times when my best friend really does the wrong things and to not tolerate it, you know? What she did was really fucked up. I just recently knew it, and I am so sorry that I didn't know earlier. I could've been there for you. It must have been hard." Normani looked down and all I can do was stare at her, not knowing whta to react.

"I—uh.. I don't know what to say, but Mani, there's nothing to be sorry for. You and Ally are one of the kindest to me and I will always thank you for that. You are one of the best people I knew. Never apologize, okay? Never." I rubbed her back as I offered her a kind smile with her giving it to me in return.

"Is this the reason why I don't see you hanging out with them that much anymore?" I asked as I pulled up to the parking lot.

"Yes, sort of. But it's not really about the situation between you and her, okay? Don't worry about that. I just needed some time to breathe, I'll be back in our circle in no time." She replied as she unhooked her seatbelt and hopped out the car.

"You can hang out with us, you know? I mean the boys can be annoying at times, but they're fun and I know that you're really gonna like Lauren and Vanessa." I replied as I walked alongside her to the place's entrance.

"It's okay, I don't want to send my girls the wrong message. You know how dramatic Camila and especially Dinah can be. But I really appreciate it. I'll hang out with the cheerleaders for a while." She replied.

"Mm, I see. You know what, your food's on me. Order anything you want." I winked at her as I held the door open for her to enter.

"I won't pass up on that, gentlewoman. I'm fucking starving!" She chuckled as we made our way to the counter.

Dinah's POV

"You're so full of shit, and I am done with this."

This fucking Austin, man.

"Come on. Camila likes you, okay? You're literally making out everywhere. You literally make her run around the school with swollen lips." I tried to reassure Austin as we both stood at the back of the school.

"As I said, Full. Of. Shit. Yes, we've been kissing everywhere and everything was good, before that dyke with a third fucking leg came in the picture again. That's all she's been ranting about, Dinah. I didn't sign up for that shit. Hell, I have been trying my way with her for what? Nearly a year and I didn't even get a single sex from her!" He grumbled.

"She's a woman, Austin. She gets confused, but in the end of the day, you're the one she's kissing, okay?" I am getting irritated. This man can't shut up.

"I don't care about kisses, Dinah. Both of you can suck that up your asses. I mean fuck, lots of women are literally hungry for me, for my fucking dick, and I just let myself be caught up with Camila, who by the way, is not even all that. Her tits are small, she's a klutz, not a passionate kisser, she lacks experience, and other girls are way hotter than her! The only reason why I am putting up with this is because I still have hopes of burying my face between her big latina ass chee— WHAT THE FUCK!"

Austin screamed as he held onto his stomach.

"What the fuck were you punching me for?!"

"You don't get to talk to Camila like that, you dip shit! She's literally above your cheap ass level. Have you seen the girls you used to date? They're fucking ugly, Austin! The only girls who are thirsting for you are hookers cause they are after your payment, not you, and definitely not your limp shrimp!

Camila doesn't deserve this disrespect, okay? She deserves the best. I have been her bestfriend since we were in kindergarten. All I wanted was for a guy to see what I see in my bestfriend. That she deserves every form of love she desires. She's worth it, Mahone. She's perfect. She's the kind of girl you would see spending your life with and there will be no stillness because she's perfect. She's.."

Before I can even continue my sentence, Austin cut me off.

"You fucking dyke. You are into Camila, aren't you?"
