"Lex, breathe just breathe okay." Laur tells me.

"I seriously don't know what to do anymore.." I sobbed.

"Lex just stop crying you got this okay.."

I breathed in and out and shook my head. I looked straight ahead for awhile then turned my attention back to Laur.

"Lex you got this, I love you so much. Just call or text me if you need anything." She said through the phone.

"Yeah I will, thanks Laur love you." I smiled slightly and hung up.

"Lex..." Oh no, please no no no.

"Jack, how long have you been standing there?" I said wiping the few tears that stayed.

"Awhile, Lex look-" He started.

"No don't, what I tell you at the restaurant leave me alone." I said walking away.

"Lex please.. Jack said catching up.

"Jack I don't wanna hear it." I tell him as I moved away from the people biking.

"Lex you have to believe me when I say that I regret it, please Lex just at least try to work with me here."

"Jack just stop!" I screamed walking faster.

I didn't pay attention to where I was headed just as long as I could escape away from him. I was in my
own thoughts till my phone buzzed.

Laur💗 : if you can make it to halfway of the tour I'll help you leave everything behind, new york just might do it..

Me: ...okay deal.

I stopped in my tracks as I heard heavy breathing behind me. Jack. He stood there and walked in front of me. I turned my head around not looking at him.

"Lex please, I know I shouldn't even be asking this especially from you but you have to just believe me when I say I didn't mean it. I don't know what I was thinking I don't know in what world I think it was okay to break my best friend. But Lex I need you here with me, when you left it was like my life stopped like my purpose for continuing my dreams didn't matter anymore. You've been with me through everything, I was never lost. I need you to complete me again.. I'm not saying I need your full trust back or for us to get back together I just need you to put effort in this with me. I just, I just need my best friend back please."

And to think I was done crying, in that moment that very moment it felt like everything stopped. That it was only Jack and I and everyone else just didn't exist. I forgot about everything in that moment. Why we were both standing there, what Lauren had suggested, why I was crying my eyes out.

I don't know what was happening if it was something I ate or I was getting sick but I could hear the hurt in his voice and I could tell he meant every word he said. So I went with what my heart was telling me...

"Stop!" I yelled as I ran up to him and gave him a hug.

"Oh my gosh.." He cried hugging me tight.

"I miss you so much." I whispered.

"Don't even start." He laughed.

"Stop Jack, stop." I said wiping his tears.

"We'll get through this I promise." He smiled and I nodded.

Did I forgive him just so it makes it easier for me to leave or was it because my feelings for him are fully coming back and I just wanted this happy ending?
