EMMA'S POV

Once I was in my room, I quickly grabbed my phone.

"Heeeyyy Ems!" my best friend, Amethyst or Amy, from home said over the phone.

"Hi," I mumbled, "How's Florida?"

"It's great! I'm in my hotel room! I kinda miss England, though," she said delightedly.

"Yeah me too, I haven't been there in ages," I spoke reminiscing my birthplace. My parents are Australian but I was born in England and my parents went to uni there. And I met Will in primary school and it hit off, so did our parents.

"Hey, can you help me with something?," I asked.

"Yeah, sure," she answered quickly.

"We, you remember Will, right?" I said, wiping away my tears.

"Of course! He was a cutie! But yeah, you guys live with each other, right?" Amy said.

"Yeah, but he got his friend to buy me tickets go to this convention thing with him, it's all the way in Seattle," I sighed.

"THAT'S GREAT, HOW ARE YOU SAD?" she shrieked.

"I dunno, money?" I emphasized 'money'.

"His friend is paying for you!" Amy said.

"I should go huh? To keep Will out of trouble?" I mumbled, giving in.

"Totally! I always thought you to we're together!" she happily said.

"We're not together...," I muttered.

"Oh, but you two went to prom together!" Amethyst added.

"Yeah, until he dumped me for Katie," I simply replied back.

"I remember that b itch. They had ya-know toget-" she quietly said.

"Yes, I know, they had sex!" I screamed into the phone. I erupted into tears, remembering what happened.

"Ems, what did he do to you?" Amethyst tried soothing me.

"H-He tried kissing me, and today he acted really like a d ick when I was talking to one of his friends who have me their number," I said in between sniffles. "And I didn't act like that when he decided to leave me for Katie... I just went with it, ya know? I didn't f ucking be bitch. I just let him be happy."

"It's okay, Ems," she cooed.

After a few seconds of silence I said, "Sorry for being annoying, you must be having a fun time."

"Are you seriously going to say that? I love you so much, Emma! If you get stuck in a rainforest some how, I'll let my hair be frizzy for you! I'd look for you!" she reminded.

"Yeah, I remember when we were in year eleven, and it was really hot and your blonde hair just frizzed up," I laughed.

"We don't mention that!" she giggled. "I love you, okay?"

"Yep, I love you too."

A familiar beep at the end of a call buzzed as I flopped on my bed.

I placed my phone on my bedside table and grabbed a pillow clutching it to my chest whist whipping off new tears.

My phone buzzed signaling I got a new text.
