Still Into You - Miniminter

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas right? Well, not in this case. What do you do when the thing that happened in Vegas is your feelings and you're stuck with them. That's what happened originally. Simon and I first met in Vegas, I was with my friends because we were having a bachelorette party in 2014 for my friend F/N, then Simon and I met in a club then later that night we hooked up and exchanged numbers. 

That was also how this predicament started, it was never meant to happen like this. Actually, it wasn't meant to happen at all, why? Why did I let myself get dragged into this? Okay, so long story short, I was away with my best friend since we are currently travelling around the states in a year since it was on both of our bucket lists. It was also a way for me to get over him. Simon. We ended on not the best terms, I had found out that he had gained feelings for a girl called Talia. I don't blame him honestly. But it ended up getting heated, not on my end originally since I was so shocked I couldn't say anything but Simon got slightly irritated because of that. Long story short, it was a mess. Much like how I am right now. 

"Simon, how could we do this? You're with Talia for fuck sake. How could we do this to her? Nope, this is just a dream. I can't be doing this no, fuck." I ramble in anger and fright of the outcome. 

"Look Y/N neither of us meant for this to happen and nobody saw us together. It'll be fine," he explains to me and holds my hand to help calm me down.

"No Simon, I should be over all the butterflies. We were a thing for a while and after all this time I'm still into you so I don't think it will be." I explain retracting my hand from his and walking to the other side of my hotel room. 

"Y/N no do-" Simon's phone begins to ring in his pocket. I motion for him to answer it, to which he does. "Hey, babe! Yeah, I'm on my way back to the hotel, I woke up on a bench," Simon makes up an excuse with a laugh. They carry on their conversation and eventually, he hangs up heads over to me. "I guess that's my queue to go then," he says trying to lighten the mood. I smile weakly and let him out of the room. I lie down on my temporary bed and eventually I guess I end up falling asleep because next thing I know is that it is dark and my phone is vibrating and making noise.

Drearily I go over to it to see my phone blowing up with notifications from twitter that I have been mentioned. I go to open them up but my screen pops up with a notification from Simon. It read 'the photo that is going around doesn't show any features of you that is distinct. I'll take the heat for it, I'll also talk to Talia. Take this as an 'I'm sorry for messing with you a year ago' gift. Because I guess I never really got over you Y/N, you will always be in my heart and I want you to know that because you hold a great part of it. I'll let you know the outcome of this I guess but until then please deny it being you. You already have had enough shit from when we broke up because of everyone tweeting you, so please just do this.' I rub my eyes slightly since tears welled up slightly. I quickly sent a reply and did as Simon asked me to. 

'@Y/T/N: Okay, I'm not sure why everyone is tweeting me pictures of Simon and a random girl in a club? Like, I haven't seen him in months. We've talked over Whatsapp a few days ago when I was asking him and the guys if they'd like anything from my travels and that's about it. So, not me. I've been with my best friend anyways so, please excuse yourselves from my profile :)' 

I sigh slightly and I leave my phone on charge and get changed out of my clothes and shower.

March 2018. Me and BF/N are in Nebraska and we have eight more months since in December we went back home due to the holidays and BF/N had to actually go into the hospital since she caught a nasty bug from Wyoming I think it was. I haven't heard back from Simon after the incident so I think it's safe to say his relationship was fine. Well, I think so anyway. It wasn't until BF/N and I had just got into the campervan we had bought for the rest of the journey with shopping in hand that I got a call from a number of which I didn't have saved. I answered it and leaned against the car. "Hello?" A familiar voice comes from the end.

"Hey," I say monotonously. 

"How are you?" He asks sweetly. 

"Tired, how about yourself Minter?" I question my head softly colliding with the campervan. 

"Drunk, and in love!" Simon exclaims loudly on the other end of the phone which causes me to wince slightly and the sudden loudness. 

"Okay then, why don't you find Talia and head back to your hotel room Si?" I say slowly to him like how a parent would to a toddler. 

"I would, but I left her Y/N I realised who I really wanted. No who I needed. I need you Y/N, you are the only person who could ever understand me. Talia was furious after the story that I made up. But then on Valentines, I went to her place to surprise her and I found her there with her ex, turns out she was still into him like we were with one another. Y/N? Please. Say something," Simon pleads on the other end and all the information processes in my head. It was a complete mess for him basically. That's why I kept on seeing his name on my timeline with DramaAlert, I guess I never realised because I was too busy trying to enjoy my time with BF/N. 

"Simon. I'll be back in the UK in eight months. Can you wait that long to actually be there physically with me?" I ask him sincerely.

"Yes, of course, Y/N. I would wait a thousand years if need be." I roll my eyes at his antics.

"Okay, Simon. See you soon," I say with a smile on my face.

"See you soon Y/N and want you to know that I will never be over all the butterflies."
