I Was Here All Along. (Lisa Cimorelli)

Let's Be Friends Again.

Lisa's POV

It's been around 2 weeks since that night I ditched Ty. We haven't hung since. I thought it was for the best seeing as he wanted a 'break'. Was I lonely and bored during the period of time? No. Not at all. Because me and Matt have hung out non-stop like crazy. Me and Matt have gotten a lot closer and we've become closer friends. He understood that I still felt an urge and a longing to hang out with Ty, so he never brought it up. Instead, he filled the hole in my heart where Ty had previously been.

Only temporarily though. I didn't want Matt in the part of my heart marked 'friends'. I wanted him in the section that was more than friends. I wanted him to be mine and I wanted to be his. That place he took over in the 'friend' part was for Ty. My friend.

My best friend...

My best friend whom I haven't spoken to or seen in over 2 weeks because of some stupid mistake. I sighed. No. I couldn't be losing him because of this. It was time. Time to fix things up. And properly.

I grabbed my phone and went to text him.

Ty's POV

These past 2 weeks, only one thing has been on my mind.

Lisa. Lisa Cimorelli.

She was the only thing I had been thinking of and nothing I did could change that. Not even the fact that I had been hired for that job I had interviewed for.

Nothing could take my mind off Lisa. I really wanted to call her and talk to her. I wanted for us to have our friendship back well and good. But I couldn't call her seeing as I had been the one to suggest this break we were currently on..

I sighed.

What had happened? How did this even start? 

I sat there on my bed wallowing in self-pity. Nothing could make me feel better. Nothing except...

*tweet tweet*

My phone went off. I reached to grab it and read the text message I had received.

My heart stopped when I saw it was from Lisa.

Nothing could make me feel better. Nothing except a text from Lisa.

And at that exact moment I had gotten what I supposed would make me feel better.

I went to read the text.

L- Ty, I've had enough of this stupid break. Let's be friends again, for real. Let's just forget whatever happened and hang out again.

After I had read it, my mind was flooding with emotions and thoughts. Maybe now we'd get our friendship back on track. Maybe now, I could tell Lisa how I felt.

But as well as those happy excited thoughts, there were those that wanted to bring me down. What if I was just her back up plan? What if she was just texting me because Matt had left her alone or had ditched her like she had ditched me?

I was confused and overwhelmed with my thoughts. I didn't know what to do. A moment ago I was saying how I wanted to have our friendship back, and now, when I was presented with the opportunity to do just that, I was hesitant. Why?

I sat there for a while trying to figure out what to do. I struggled to make a decision, but finally I decided to go with what my heart was saying.

I texted her back.

T- Ok, I'll come over todayy yayy! hah be ready for me!!

I tried to make the text seem as happy and uplifting as I could. I didn't want her to get the feeling that I was hesitant about this decision.

I didn't really know how things would be now. I didn't know if there would be an awkward feeling or if we'd just be back to old times.

I really wanted it to be back to the way things were. Before she met Matt. I don't know what it was, but I was somewhat jealous of Matt. But then again, I'd be jealous of anybody who was replacing me as Lisa's friend.

Yes, I know he's been taking over my place and hanging out with Lisa a lot recently. I know this. I see it all the time when I'm out and about. Of course, I'm never seen by them. I do my best to hide out. But I see him and Lisa together a lot. Matt, always with his messy brown hair hung over on his forehead. Always with this werid smirk on his face as if he was proud of something he had acheived. And Lisa, with her beautiful brown hair and her perfect smile...

But the thing is, I didn't know the guy. So who was I to judge? If Lisa wanted to be friends with him, so what?

So what?

I knew the answer to that question. So what? Well, the more they hang out, the more Lisa will forget about me until one day when I will be completely replaced and I'll have no chance with Lisa. Because of this guy named Matt...

I knew I was going into extremes. This was most likely never going to happen. But I just couldn't focus on the positives right now.

Come on Ty. Get your head together. The fact that she just texted you asking to hang out means everything. She hasn't forgot about you and you haven't been replaced.

I had to keep mentally telling myself this because otherwise... I would have forgot.

Everything was just too confusing, I didn't know if we were friends anymore..

The sooner I get over to Lisa's house and get to talk to her; the better.
