Emilia 

The wind blew in my face vigorously as we sped down the road, instinctively my arms wrapped around Jordan's waist as I tried to grip on for dear life, and he chuckled as I let out a screech when we came to a stop. We temporarily stopped on the side of the road so Jordan could make sure I was on comfortably, I must admit, my ass was sore from the seat, but the fact that he wanted to double check was sweet. I forgot to tell him my address, I was so hyped to have my first motorbike ride that I forgot to direct him as to where he's going, so before he started to move again, I told him my address. 



'Hey, I live like five minutes away from your house, we're practically neighbours' Jordan says with excitement in his voice as he starts the motorbike back up before speeding down the road. 




It felt free, zooming past the houses until they were blurry, feeling the wind blow onto my face as I enjoyed the feeling of rushing down the roads without anything on my mind. Jordan was enjoying the ride too, occasionally he would glance back at me briefly, and I could see the grin etching on his face. I unraveled my arms from around his waist when he slowly came to a stop outside of my house, I took off the helmet as I carefully got off of his bike. 



'Your bike is amazing, you're very good at driving it too' I compliment as I stand beside him, he just sits on his bike with a smile on his face as I gently run my hand over the details. 




'I'm glad you like it, maybe I can give you a ride to school sometime. I'll let you head off, I've already stolen enough moments with you for today' Jordan jokes as he remembers that I have a boyfriend, who probably wouldn't be too thrilled knowing that I was getting rides home on a motorbike  with a guy he hasn't even met. 



'Thanks for the ride Jordan, I'll see you tomorrow' I say before I move forward and hand him the helmet, he gives me an appreciative smile and before he leaves, I threw my arms around him and gave him a quick hug, he laughs deeply as his hand rests on my lower back. He leaves after a few moments, and I turn on my heel and walk up to my porch when he's out of sight.

'Emilia, Billy's here!' My mum shouts from downstairs and I jog down the stairs  to greet him at the front door, and before he can even open his mouth, I drag him upstairs into my room and force him to sit down on my bed. 




'You and Steve, what the hell are you two doing?' I question harshly and instantly Billy's face contorted into a confused look before he shakes his head in disbelief. 





'Harrington really, I have no idea what you're talking about' Billy says, clearly lying to me while he tries to act innocent, but I let out a fake laugh as I press on further. 





'Oh really, that's why you were talking a few days ago, don't lie to me Billy, he's been playing up' I state but Billy keeps his poker face on and continues to deny. 



'I may have talked to him, but not about anything important, just some business' Billy says as he folds his arms across his chest, I roll my eyes as I take a seat next to him and rest my hand on his shoulder. 



'Wow, you two just talked about business?' I question in a sarcastic tone, but Billy just nods his head vigorously as he hums in a response. 




'Yeah, basically' Billy says and I let out a groan before I squeeze his shoulder. 




'I'm going to get the truth out of one of you, eventually' I state in a matter of fact tone causing Billy to scoff as he changes the subject.




'I was wondering...' Billy starts as he coughs and gently inches closer to me so the gap between us is very little.



'Let's say that if things were different between us, before I was a jerk and did certain things, would you have still forced me to go to prom with you?' Billy states and when I go silent, I sense the regret in his body language right after. I let his statment ponder as I sat up on the edge of my bed and reinforced a gap between us.




'No, you were persistent on not going, so no I wouldn't have forced you to go with me' I state blatantly causing him to sigh heavily.





'So if I had changed my mind and decided that I wanted to go to prom with you, would you have let me?' Billy questions and I furrow my eyebrows in confusion at his questions.




'Why are you bringing this up?' I ask and Billy shrugs.



'I'm just curious, if you weren't with Steve, and me and you were still a thing, would you have gone with me' Billy says and I let the silence surround us as I think of an answer, but it didn't take me long to respond.




'No, I wouldn't have' I state without much of an explanation as to why, it was the truth. But my answer leaves Billy dumbfound as he processes it.





'So you wouldn't have gone with me even if-' Billy starts but I cut him off early.




'Even If you hadn't have dumped me for a stranger and humiliated me numerous times. Too bad Billy, what's done is done and you can't change it' I say as I stand up infront of him.





'Just because I've forgiven you does not mean I want you back, we're just friends, and I think you should just accept that' I argue and Billy doesn't say anything back, he just nods before brushing his hand through his hair and stands up.





'I didn't come over to argue with you, I just wanted to get my point across' Billy states as he bends down in front of me so we're eye level and he rests his hands on my knees as he continues to talk.



'I think we both know something, we are like magnets, we'll always be attracted to each other...no matter what happens, we'll always be dragged back to this complicated relationship' Billy sighs out as he lets me process his words and as he gets up and turns to leave, I call out to him.




'That was a shitty metaphor, and you promised you'd leave Steve and I alone' I say as he pulls my door open, but he flashes me a smirk as he shakes his head.





'When do I ever keep my promises?'
