Strawberry shortcake; Clifford [au] SLOW UPDATES

/Quatre/

What? she can't have a boyfriend. This must be some sort of twisted dream.

I pinch myself, hard, and wince a little in pain. Nope, all of this is real.

Shit.

"Wait!" I manage to choke out after Layla. She turns and gives me a look of sorrow.

I walk up to her and hug her, tightly, letting her know that she's done nothing wrong.

She wrapped her fragile arms around my waist, mine around her shoulders.

She looked up at me with a worried look.

"I'm sorry about before, I don't what I was thinking. I take everything back. I'm sorry." She mumbled a little to quickly as she pulled back from the warm embrace.

My face dropped at her words, did it all really mean nothing?

It stung, the worst part was the fact that she would take it all back if she could. I wouldn't trade that moment for anything in the world.

I gave her a fake smile. "It's fine, we all make mistakes, right?"

"Right."

"Alright, so we'll just forget that ever happened okay?" She bargained, sticking out her hand for me to take.

But I don't want to forget what happened.

I shakily took her petite hand in my own and shook it gently. She flashed me a genuine smile.

It was funny how fast her mood can change, from sorrow to joy at the simple gesture of a handshake.

"Well then, let's be friends." she said out if the blue.

I smirked at the opportunity she gave me.

"Best friends." I said in a posh voice, raising my head a little for effect.

She giggled at my Charlie and the chocolate factory reference. I smiled back down at her.

Just hearing her laugh, or even seeing her smile could make me happy. Heck, her smile could end wars and cure cancer.

"That's actually my favourite movie ya' know?" She grinned up at me as she spoke.

"Oh really?" I said, smiling back, we walked slowly back to class, as the bell was about to ring.

"Really." She smirked back, looking down to kick a pebble that was on the pathway.

"We should-" I was stopped mid sentence as a tall, muscular guy walked up to Layla and placed an open mouthed kiss roughly to her delicate lips.

I mentally groaned, this must be the boyfriend.
