i wake up with a mere four hours of sleep supporting me. my hand reaches for my phone and i grab it, bringing it toward my face. i scroll through my home screen, looking for texts.
seanny boy
hey, can we talk? text me when you're up.
i swipe right to be directly sent to our messages.
jace
yeah, of course
i look through my other messages and see a few from isabela.
bela
we should hang today :)
bela
responddddd
bela
jaceyy
i sigh and text back.
jace
hey b, i have plans today already:(
is it bad for lying? oh well. a banner pops up at the top of my screen.
seanny boy
i know you don't like people to tell you what to do with your life and i respect that but i'm just a bit concerned about you and isabela
jace
concerned how?
seanny boy
it's like she's taken over your brain or something since you two started to date. she's hogging all of your time and she'll most likely attack anyone who tries to take you. idk, just a thought
jace
yeah, i get that. she's great and everything, but no one can seem to like her because of how she acts when we're all together
jace strokes his upper lip and swallows.
jace
okay, she's not really great
jace
^ that's only the tip of the iceberg. i know i can trust you and i can't believe that i'm telling anyone this but i regret having maggie and noah meet because i've really liked her all along and i can't take her away or anything and that's how i feel. sorry for the vent
i take a deep breath and reread the text i just sent. like a loose cannon, firing at my best friend.
seanny boy
are you going to tell her that?
jace
well yeah, eventually. even if she's still with noah, i want closure.
i run a hand through my hair and ponder on what i had just spilled to sean.
