Forgiven

| All I want - The Kodaline |

Lucy:

I jolted awake, a light sheen of cold sweat sticking to my back. My arms were red and raw from my own nails. Had I scratched myself?

Simon was no longer kneeling before me, the room dark unlike my dream.

Why had I dreamed such a thing? I couldn't imagine ever saying that to Simon. Did he know I concealed feelings for him? Did he harbor feelings for me, or was that just my mind playing tricks on me?

"See, she's awake!" I jolted again, tangled in the soft grey blanket as I tried to locate Simon's voice. He was here? My eyes finally adjusted to the dark, and I spotted a tall figure guarding the hallway, blocking Simon from entering the flat any further. Was that Cal or Harry? I couldn't quite make the person out.

"She's actually asleep." It was Harry.

He glanced down the darkened hallway at me, trying to communicate with me with a head gesture. Did he realize he looked like he was Michael Jackson having a seizure?

I frowned at him, before rubbing at my head. Turns out crying gives you a banger of a migraine.

"I can see her sitting up, Harry." Harry rubbed the back of his head, still blocking Simon from entering. I was appreciative of the gesture, but I think Simon and I just needed to sort things out. I didn't want to not be friends anymore.

Yes, Simon was a twat, but he was a twat I deeply cared about.

"I need to see her." Simon repeated. Wait, had their conversation manifested into my dream? Was that even possible?

"Harry, he won't go away till I've seen him." I groaned, guilt immediately slamming into my stomach as Simons shoulders visibly dropped.

Do not feel sorry for him. My internal voices were lacking confidence as I tired to bury my feelings for Simon.

This was going to be difficult.

Simon:

Guilt churned in my stomach as I peered over Harry's shoulder at Lucy.

Her face was ashen, eyes swollen and red as she looked at me. It was obvious she had been crying, and it hurt to know I had been the cause.

How could I have been so stupid? How had I done such a thing?

"Harry, just let him in." Lucy wasn't looking at me anymore, her eyes downcast, shoulders slumped. She looked like a broken girl.

My own shoulders drooped as Harry moved to the side, shooting me a look laced with disappointment. I had truly messed up this time.

Why did I not believe Lucy? She would never go back to see Jackson after what he did. Although I knew I made her angry and confused, my own emotions making me reckless when I kissed her, she was too loyal to her friends to go against their wishes.

Over the past 24 hours, I had certainly been the stupidest man on the planet.

What sane guy would mess with such an incredible girls emotions?

That's why I had come. I couldn't stand not apologizing to her, not seeing her again.

Cal had been right when he found her, to leave her to him rather than let me cause any more problems.

I guess I was lucky I had friends who cared about her as much as I did.

Cautiously, I approached Lucy, my body wrapped in the shadows.
