No, Just Bestfriends

Chapter 19 "There's always a Plan B"

Arianna's POV

Just breathe. I repeat to myself, how can it be so hard to breathe around him? Oh yeah because he's not here for long.

"How come you haven't played the piano?" I looked up at him he was waiting for my answer. "Sorry but uhh, it reminds me too much of pops." I looked away from him. "Yeah but I didn't fix it for nothing." He said bluntly.

"Let's go see if you can still play." He stood up from the table and totally ignored my rejection. He grabbed my hand leading me to the clean untched piano. What part of it reminds me of pops do you not understand?

He sat me down next to him. I stared down at the keys for a minute. "I don't want to play." I spat.

"Fine I'll play." He placed his fingers on the keys he knew he was going to play. He started and it actually sounded good.

"When did you-", "Don't ask." He cut me off.

The music he played was happy and cheerful. I was confused on how he could still be happy with everything that's going on in his life.

He stopped and turned to me. "Play what you feel." I sighed at his suggestion.

I place my fingers on the keys and before starting I took a deep breath.

"Sounds a bit sad." He looked at me concerned his bright grassy green eyes soften. "This is how I feel." He smiled.
"This is how you should feel everyday."

I moved hands from the piano keys making him mess up. "How could I be happy? How could I be happy every single day knowing that you'll be gone one of these days?!" I stood up pushing my hands down on the keys ready to move away from the piano.

He grabbed my wrist making me look at him. His face was emotionless, "stop crying.", I didn't even realize I was. I wiped my tears. He made me sit with him except this time I was on his lap.

"Yes you won't have me everyday but you have me right now. Make the most of it princess.". Maybe he was right, maybe I should but it's not that I won't. It just I don't want to have to.

"Now will you please play with your boyfriend?" I sighed and looked down at the keys. I took a deep breath before making any sound. Just do it already.

I pressed down playing the song he played before, he then join me. But for some reason I was smiling like a fool.

I don't know if it was because I was with him or because I was feeling every key hit my spine. I closed my eyes and I could feel every sound vibrating through my veins. I finally felt happy, I opened my eyes again looking down at the keys and I realized he stopped.

I realized what he was trying to do. He was trying to make me remember the good in remembering my father. That not everything that I remembered about him was sad or depressing.

"Your dad taught me." I stopped and turned to him, it was like he was remembering in his head.

"You weren't here, it was the summer you went to summer camp." He spoked, it was around the time my mother enjoyed my presence and all was good. I didn't expect or anyone expect my father to pass away. Like I said all was good.

"Then how if you were at the boys summer camp?" He smirked at my question.

"See what happened was I didn't want to go to summer camp so I made a deal with my mom. If I learned something useful I won't have to go to summer camp."

"So after your mom took you to your lame camp." , "It wasn't lame." I said rolling my eyes.

"Yeah it wasn't lame until I started sneak over to your side." I rolled my eyes at how much he was right. But the camp wasn't boring, it was pretty fun.
