After 2

Chapter 29

Michelle's pov

What am I doing? Why can't I just eliminate James from my life? Everything was fine until I met him. We aren't even friends and he is still ruining my life. I've messed things up with Alfie because of him, I can't stop thinking about him. I wonder how  he treats Ella? I wonder if they love each other or if it's just puppy love.
A single tear falls from my eye and down my cheek as I think about everything I've lost; Eldon, my best friend, James, I regret everything to do with him, Thalia was one of my best friends here and now she's gone, even me and hunter. Bet aside, we were still such close friends and now Alfie. He is so amazing, every girls dreams. I had him in my finger tips but I let him go. Maybe in order to move forward I have to take a few steps back. Rebuild the bridges that were burned in the process of my own self-destruction. 
I'll start with Eldon.
-
I wait for him to pick up his phone, he does after the sixth ring.
"Hello?"
"Eldon! Hi" woah. Way to eager, "sorry, hi Eldon, how have you been?"
"I'm umm fine thanks, what's up?"
"I- umm I want to apologise. For everything. Like literally everything. I was a horrible best friend and a needy girlfriend. I should've realised sooner that everything you did was to make sure I was happy and I wish I listened because right now need you more then ever"
I hear him sniffle.
"Michelle it's okay. I'm sorry too, I should've let you live your life and I shouldn't have stopped trying. I miss you so much"
"I miss you too Eldon" I smile through the phone.
"We should catch up sometime, just us, just as friends"
"Yes of course. I'll stay in contact for sure"
"Great. I'll see you around"
"Okay bye"
It feels so good to have repaired our friendship. I don't know what I would have done without him.
Next on the list, Thalia? Hmm. I actually don't know. She hurt me the most.
Hunter. Hmm. If I can't forgive Thalia, why should I forgive him? It's apart of healing myself.
I ring Hunters number. Here goes nothing.
"Michelle?" He says with confusion.
"Hi hunter" I say awkwardly.
"Umm James isn't with me right now"
"I wasn't after James"
"Umm"
"Hunter, even though you completely ruined my life, I believe we were still friends and I need friends right now" I let out a sigh.
"Yeah, our friendship was pretty tight" he laughs. I laugh with him.
"So we cool?" I ask
"Yeah we're cool. Look, I'll catch you up later"
"Alright, bye"
2 down. 2 to go.
Who first though? James? Or Alfie?
