Mackenzie's POV:
-
I walk into the kitchen and grab a plate of ham and cheese omelette. "Morning Lauren and Hayden." I take a seat but Lauren keeps on giving me a look.
I slam my hands on the table. "Good morning Johnny! Thank you for making this wonderful ham and cheese omelette!" I sit down and start eating quickly. I place my dish in sink and walk to the bathroom to change. I exit the bathroom and get stopped by Johnny.
"What's up with you?!" Johnny asks holding onto my arm. "I'm tired of Lauren trying to push us to be friends. You can't force a friendship together!"
I push Johnny hands off my arms. Johnny moves out of the way but this time Lauren stops me.
"I get it you guys aren't friends, but don't hit my brother or yell at him!" I try to stay calm but I just couldn't.
"Are you fucking serious?! It's like you completely ignore that your brother taunts me, yells at me, makes fun of me, and hits me just as much! Remember when I was crying? Yeah, that was Johnny's fault. At least I don't go as far as making your brother cry!" I get out of Lauren's hold and run out of the house.
I don't know where I'm going but I just keep on running until I got tired. I stop and take a breather. I sit down. Why do Johnny and I fight anyway? I shake that thought out of my head and go back to thinking of Lauren. My gosh she's my best friend but Johnny's brother so I understand why she would stick up for him.
But she's completely ignoring the things he does to me. And yet she's trying to get us to be friends? I felt a tiny tear drop fall onto my cheek. I just let it all out. I didn't have much to cry about so I didn't go onto a full sob. My phone rings. I didn't bother look to see who was calling. I turned on do not disturb.
I looked up to see the view. It was pretty and all but that also means it's late out and I'm not staying out this late. I reluctantly walked back to Lauren's house. I wiped all of my tears away but I still look like a mess either way. I knock on the door and Hayden opens it. "Oh my gosh Mackenzie. Please don't ever do that again." I give him a weak smile and walk inside.
Lauren and Johnny were sitting on the couch. Hayden shut the door which makes Johnny and Lauren look towards me. "Mackenzie! I'm so sorry!" Lauren says but I shake my head and go to the second living room. "Give her some time." I hear Johnny whispers. I hear footsteps indicating that someone entered the room.
"Please go awa- oh, Johnny. Don't really want to talk to you either." I move my hair out of my face and sit back up. "I wanted to apologize. For making you cry that day. I didn't mean to I'm sorry." I roll my eyes.
"You really didn't seem to care when you laughed about it in the car." I reminded him which made him frown. "I know I know I'm sorry. I'm also sorry for hurting you all this time." I nod. "I'm sorry too. I don't really know why we didn't hit it off the first time we met. I don't want to be mean to you. You were always mean to me so I just did the same thing back. So I'm sorry if I went too far."
Johnny's face just gets sadder but the second. "Please don't think anything if your fault. I'm not one who made you be mean back, I'm the one who made you cry, I'm the one who made you run away. I realized I'm making you question why all of this is happening. I'm sorry and I hope we can be friends." Johnny puts his hands out.
I look down at it. I smile and take a hold of it shaking it. "Friends. Yeah sure. Friends." I said smiling, almost laughing. Johnny smiles back. "Could you possibly forgive Lauren?" I shake my head yes. "I shouldn't have gotten mad at her like that. She was right for my part." Johnny stops smiling.
"Please stop blaming yourself." I slowly nod and look at the ground. "Well, goodnight." I said and lay my head on the pillow. "Goodnight." Johnny sighs
