Kehlani's POV:
~a week later~
Graduation's in a week.
I'm so excited.
I wake up to see a missed call.
I shrug & my phone rings as a call comes in
"Early morning..someone's calling who could this be?"
I see Nate's caller ID pop up
"reach my phone & your name showing on my caller ID"
I don't answer it but I grab my phone & dial the number
"I decline & change my mind & call you back up"
He answers
"Hey" he says
"Hey" I say biting my lips since I'm nervous
We kinda haven't talked since the whole glass thing.
We stay silent on the phone
I'm begging for him to speak.
I love John.
But for some reason I get nervous all over again with Nate.
"You say hey..I say hey.then we don't say much"
He sighs
"Well listen I'm sorry about what happened. I was crazy to hurt you & your best friend."
"Nate-"
"No. I have to tell you this"
"What?"
"I still love you"
My hands shake
"What?" I say in shock
He says
"I'll call you back in a hour. Bye"
The phone call ends
I turn off my phone
I cover my face
Tears roll down my face
What the hell is wrong with me?
Why can't I get over this?
We broke up.
Things didn't work out.
I met someone.
He met someone.
We moved on.
Everything's good.
In reality.
I guess I never grown out of my "childhood crush"
I wipe my tears when I hear a knock on my door
I cover myself in my blanket
John walks in with flowers
"Hey baby."
"Hi"
I just had a huge meltdown & I'm acting fine with him
Am I crazy?
Idk anymore.
He cups my face
"Can I hear you sing to me?"
I sigh & I slowly sing
"It's almost like singing a sad song"
I realize it's the song I used to sing to Nate
I tear up
"Excuse me" I say going to the bathroom
I sit on the toilet & I cry into my arms
"Babygirl. I'm sorry for the phone call. It was too much"
He still calls me "Babygirl"?
"You make it so easy to hang on.."
My heart is weak I guess
I fall for him again?
I'm with John.
That's cheating.
I shake it off
No girl
Get those feelings out.
But again I break down
"Cause I've got a weak heart baby.."
Ana texts me
"What's good Bae?😊"
I call her whispering into the phone what happened
She yells at me through the phone
"I'm not letting you see that tweaking asshole"
"Bae..he seemed nice on the phone"
"Don't call me when he gets crazy & controlling again"
"Babe.."
"Get over it LANI your with John."
"I thought I did Ana"
"Well end the little childhood fantasy of you & Nate already. You tried it didn't work"
I sigh
"Fine your right"
"I'm always right" she says with sass in her voice
"I'll be seeing you at the seniors of JFK high rooftop party right?"
"I didn't know-"
"Hayley's throwing it she invited you"
I check my phone & a invite sent from Hayley was sent to me last night
"What day is it?"
"It's a Saturday"
"I know what day it is smartass" I say smirking
"I mean what's the day for the party?"
"The day before graduation"
"Friday?"
"Yup."
"Sounds fun"
"I'll see you there"
"Ight love ya"
I sigh & I look in the mirror
Your in love with John.
Not Nate.
Nate's a asshole.
John's not one.
I walk out of the bathroom & John cups my face & kisses me randomly
I kiss him back
He giggles
"You okay there?"
"Yes I'm fine" I say smiling & he lifts me up & carries me away
I squeal
I guess I don't really have a weak heart,.
Or do I?
"Cause I've got a weak heart baby"
