I Could Never Forget Us

Chapter 21

--- Addy's POV ---

'Hey' I waved enthusiastically at my computer screen

'Hi Addy' Rian waved back 'How're you doing?'

'I'm fine, I miss you guys so much though' I pouted

'We miss you too' he smiled sadly

'What're you doing?' I heard Zack's voice

'Skyping Addy' Rian said

'Really? Let me talk to her too' Zack appeared grinning widely

'Hey Zack' I smiled back at him

'I'm here too you know' Jack shoved his way in and pulled a face at me

'How could anyone not notice you?' I laughed

'All I wanted was to talk to Addy and everyone's involved now' Rian sighed 'I should've just texted you'

'Don't worry it's nice to actually see you' I said

'What've you been up in LA then?' Jack asked

'Well I lost my job so I mostly just sit around doing nothing' I sighed 'I've got a few girlfriends and sometimes Lucas comes over'

'Wait, what?' Jack's eyes narrowed

'You didn't break up with him?' Rian frowned

'No' I mumbled

'But he's an asshole!' Zack exclaimed

'He came over and apologised and I just couldn't reject him' I explained

'I can't believe this, Alex won't be happy when he hears about it' Jack shook his head

'What am I not happy about?' Alex walked into the room

Jack, Zack and Rian turned round in shock when they noticed him.

'That you're missing out on talking to me you idiot' I decided to save the situation

'Too right I'm not happy about that' he shoved Jack and Rian out the way so he could sit down

'Now I can't even see her never mind talk to her' I heard Rian grumble

'I miss you' Alex sighed

'I miss you too' I smiled sadly at him, all I wanted to do was hug him but he was on the other side of the country

'Is everything okay?' he asked 'Lucas isn't bothering  you is he?'

'No' I took a deep breath before my next sentence 'He apologised to me and I kind of forgave him'

'Are you being serious?' he looked annoyed

'I didn't know what to do Alex, he seemed really sorry about it' I tried to calm him down

'I seriously think you've made a big mistake' he pursed his lips

'Can we just not talk about it?' I sighed

'Fine' he finally cracked a smile for me

'I did actually want to ask her something so could I possibly do that now?' Rian grumpily picked up the laptop and put it on his lap

'Yeah, go ahead' I giggled at him

'I was talking to Cass this morning and we got onto the subject of you and she thought it'd be cool if you two were to meet up' he said

'That'd be really nice' I nodded 'You can tell her I'm up for it'

'Great' he grinned 'She said she's free tomorrow afternoon so she could drop in at your place'
