Two months later

" so you two are like a thing now!" Rukhsar gasped, we were currently talking about Asher and I.

"Well what do you mean by thing?" I asked they shrugged.

"Well like how yours and Harris relationship was." Aaishah said. Harris. I've been hearing his name so much lately every time I talk to one of the boys or girls Harris comes up....it makes me miss him more, and them stating all the good times we had together just doesn't help.

"I-I well....

"Awwwww!" The girls squealed.

"Why are you guys yelling?" Reuenelle asked coming into my room.

"She has a boyfriend!" Kainat clapped, I heard footsteps running up the stairs. Oh no...

"Who boyfriend?" Alex asked.

"Yasmine has-

"No I don't!"

"Yasmine whatever your middle name is Jems, what boyfriend you better not be dating anyone! I haven't even met this guy." Seth said.

Then my phone rang it was Asher, I wasn't going to answer because the others were staring at me then my phone suddenly the boys pounced on my bed to get my phone away from me, Harris answered.

"Hi you have reached Yasmines phone I'm most likely not answering because I'm busy dancing to Single ladies by Beyoncé please leave a message after the beep....BEEEEP." Harris said I gasped.

"HARRIS YOU WERENT SUPPOSED TO TELL ANYONE!" I scolded taking the phone away from him.

"I don't do that." I answered.

"yeah she does It's funny I'll send you a video!" Harris called I pushed him off my bed making him land on the ground onto Jays lap.

"Your gay." Jay said to him the others laughed.

"Mhm, yeah of course, aww yeah me too, humsufar?...I'll tell the girls yes, k bye." I said and closed the phone as the others continued making noise, I saw AJ punch Harris' on the arm and Harris whined.

"AJ apologize." I gasped.

"Why are you defending him he's being annoying." He said as Harris jumped on my bed and hugged me.

"He's older than you, don't hit your elders." I said and he groaned.

"Yeah child." Harris said the others shook their heads.

"Harris one stop annoying him two, calm down, three get off me." I laughed trying to push him away.

"Yay cuddles!" The boys yelled and crowded around us.

"I swear you attract guys like honey attracts flies." I heard Asher say, I scoffed.

"Nah, these guys are just a bunch of kids and I'm like their mom." I laughed pushing them away from me.

"Oh well I guess now we call you mom." Shaddy laughed.

"Let me guess Humsufar marathon?" Fatima asked and Asher nodded.

"Yeah you guys were supposed to join." He smiled at the girls who gasped and turned on my tv I took the remote and tried working it but it wouldn't work.

"ISA GET ME THE BATTERIES." I called.

"Um love your holding it upside down." Asher said trying not to smile, I looked down and indeed I was, haha I felt stupid. I blushed and held it right then worked it turning on Netflix.

Harris:

Only I call her love, that's my name for her! Or at least it was.... Do I hate Asher? NO ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO HATE HIM! He's so nice and chill and just a great guy....yasmines happy....I guess there goes my chances.

"We'll be in my room you guys have fun." Isa said and us guys except Asher left, I looked at Yaz I don't know why, how could you not look at her she's beautiful, she saw me staring and smiled I smiled back and I swear I saw her blush I didn't get to see for sure cause Adam dragged me out the room.

I couldn't stop thinking about her, what do I do? I want her back, but she's with Asher he treats her right so it's impossible for me to dislike him. But I only have myself to blame, if I hadn't said that I didn't love her if I didn't yell at her, if I had just been more understanding like a good boyfriend then she'd still be with me....right?

Yasmine:

"So are you two like together?" Kainat asked looking between Asher and I, who looked at each other then back at them.

"No we're just friends." We said in unison, the girls nodded.

"Honestly I can't think about being with anyone but Harris,but I have to get over him. I really do like Asher he's sweet and funny and nice and yes I know Harris and I can't be together even if I still love him, he doesn't feel the same so there's no point.

We continued watching humsufar in silence talking every now and then.

Soon Asher had to leave I walked him to my door we talked like for a few seconds.

"The girls seem to like you." I chuckled he smiled.

"Well I have that affect on women." He said I chuckled.

" huh interesting." I said playing along.

"Yeah, but I only really wanna impress one girl she's really something." He said I smiled looking at him and tilted my head.

"Who is she?" I asked actually interested.

"You." He said, I blushed looking down.

"Well you don't need to impress me. I already like you." I said truthfully.

"Really?" He asked I simply nodded.

"Well I should go, I'll see you later?" He asked I nodded he was about to leave but turned around and kissed my cheek, I blushed...but there were no sparks, unlike when Harris kissed me. Wait why am I comparing him to Harris? That's long gone.

"Bye." He smiled I waved and he walked away I closed the door behind me seeing Yusha walked downstairs.

"I saw that." He said I blushed again.

"You really like him?" He asked me I shrugged.

"I mean I do like him I'm just...

"Confused?" I looked at him and nodded.

"I mean I love Harris but I can't, he doesn't feel the same way-

"Yes he does, he still wears the ring you gave him on your guys date, and he talks about how much he misses you. You know he even cries at times and doesn't stop until hours later." Yusha said, I sighed. He's joking right, hopefully not about the him still loving me, I don't want him to cry.

"I-I can't-

"Why? Why are you doing this to yourself? Your not happy you love him he loves you. I know he's done some really hurtful things but that doesn't mean he doesn't love you." He said as soon as he said 'hurtful things' I remembered exactly why I can't go back.

"Yusha I go back, then what? We fought to much as a couple, do we go back to a relationship where there's always yelling and pain? And just leave a friendship? It's better this way." I said he hugged me.

It's better this way...
