You're on the phone with your girlfriend, and you can hear the frustration in her voice. She’s upset, going off about something you said, her words tumbling out in a mix of anger and confusion. "You just don’t get it," she snaps, and you know she doesn’t appreciate your humor the way I do.
In another room, I’m sitting with Nicholas, feeling the tension of the situation. It’s a typical Tuesday night, and I can’t help but notice the contrast of our lives. I’m surrounded by music she would never understand, songs filled with memories of laughter and inside jokes. She’ll never know his story like I do, the way we’ve shared secrets and dreams over late-night talks.
Nicholas promised he’d spend time with me. It feels like forever since we’ve hung out without Victoria hovering like a dark cloud over us. She’s threatened our friendship, insisting that he stop talking to me, and it’s suffocating. Each time we hang out, her calls interrupt, breaking the spell of our moments together. I’ve liked him since high school, long before he was caught in her web.
Victoria wears short skirts, confident and sharp, while I’m in my comfy T-shirt and jeans, perched on the bleachers of life, daydreaming about the day he wakes up and realizes what he’s been overlooking. If only he could see that I’m the one who understands him, always have.
As we walk through the familiar streets, I can’t help but think about what it should be like—just the two of us, laughing on a park bench, feeling like we belong. Nicholas has a smile that could light up the darkest nights, but I haven’t seen it in ages. Since he started dating Victoria, it feels like he’s put on a mask, faking happiness just to get by. I know him better than anyone; I can tell when he’s truly happy and when he’s just pretending.
She’s always in his ear, dictating his actions, and I feel awful seeing him struggle under the weight of her demands. I’m here, waiting, wishing he could just see what’s right in front of him. The truth is, he belongs with me, but he’s blind to it.
With each moment we share, my heart aches for him. I remember standing beside him, joking around, feeling the warmth of his laughter as I tried to cheer him up after yet another fight with Victoria. "Hey, you remember that time we…?" I start, trying to pull him from the depths of his troubles.
He looks at me, and for a moment, I see a flicker of the boy I fell for—the one who made every day feel effortless. I try to remind him of the fun we used to have, the moments when we were just two kids, no worries in the world. But now, there’s a heaviness in the air.
“Hey, isn’t this easy?” I say, trying to lighten the mood. “I can’t help thinking this is how it ought to be.”
Nicholas nods, but there’s a sadness in his eyes that makes my heart ache. I haven’t seen him smile genuinely since she came into the picture, and it’s not fair. She wears high heels, and I’m stuck in sneakers, wishing he could just see me for who I am. I’m the one here, understanding him, waiting for him to notice.
Then, everything changes. He comes to me after another fight, tears in his eyes. My heart breaks at the sight, and I’ll do anything to make him smile again. I turn on the radio, blasting our song, and start singing badly, hoping to bring back that sparkle in his eyes.
“God, why are you so weird? It’s cute,” he says, laughter spilling from his lips.
“Well, my dear friend, it’s because it makes you laugh,” I reply, trying to keep the mood light. “But I’m definitely not cute. Thanks anyway.”
“Mm, I think a lot of people would say otherwise,” he teases, and I can’t help but giggle.
Standing outside his door, my heart races. All this time, how could he not know? I’ve been here, right here, waiting for him to see that he belongs with me.
When I hear the news, my heart leaps—he broke up with Victoria. I rush over to his house, excitement bubbling inside me, but I have to play it cool. I knock on his door, my heart pounding in my chest.
When he opens it, there’s that smile—the one I thought I’d never see again. “Wow, you look too happy after a breakup. Want to talk about it? I can put on a movie…” I start, but before I can finish, he surprises me by crashing his lips against mine.
My mind goes blank. Nicholas just kissed me. Why would he do this right after breaking up with her? It doesn’t make sense, but in that moment, all I can think about is how right it feels. I’m shocked for a split second before I kiss him back, melting into the moment.
When we finally pull apart, I’m breathless. “Why did you just do that?”
His expression turns serious. “Y/n, I’m so sorry. I never realized sooner. I’ve been an idiot. All this time, while I was with Victoria, you were the one I was meant to be with. I’ve loved you since high school, but I was scared you were too good for me, too pretty for me to approach. I didn’t know if you felt the same or if you were into someone else…”
I can’t help but laugh at his confession. “What made you realize?”
He grins sheepishly. “Honestly? You made it pretty obvious. Every time I fought with her, you were there, making me laugh, trying to lift my spirits. And every time you said you loved me, I felt like it was more than just a friend saying it.”
“Chavez, what would I do without you?” I tease, feeling lighter than I have in ages.
“Be alone?” he smirks.
I feigned offense, playfully slapping his arm. “Ouch, that hurt!”
“Y/n, I’m really sorry for not saying this sooner, but would you be my girlfriend? My soulmate? My best friend for life?” His eyes are sincere, full of hope.
I lean in and kiss him softly, the weight of everything melting away. “I would love to be your girlfriend, Nicholas Alexander Chavez.”
As I lean my forehead against his, looking into his eyes, everything feels right.
“Good,” he replies, and we dive back into another kiss, sealing our newfound connection.
In that moment, I know we’ve finally found where we belong—together.
