*at the airport*
z and i are currently waiting at the airport for our plane to arrive. we're just on our phones bored as hell. five minutes later we hear, "flight 256 the bronx, new york now boarding."
we get on the plane, listened to the stupid safety rules, and made ourselves comfortable.

"so their names are reid and lena. lena was my best friend until she backstabbed me. i used to like reid, more than just a friend. lena knew that. i would always talk about him and she'd be so happy when something happened between him and i. don't worry it wasn't anything sexual, it was just flirting, holding hands and hugging. so anyway, he felt the same way about me, he liked me too and he told me through text message and i still have them, but we never official. lena knew everything, i told her everything. i guess she got really jealous and she kept things from me. she told him lies, fed him bullshit and all of a sudden he stopped talking to me. lena was there to comfort me, so i really didn't know what was going on at the time. but i got a hold of her phone this one time and reid was texting her 'i love you' and 'i miss you' i then started looking through her phone and i found out she was talking shit about me and i just remember bursting into tears. i decided to text reid and ask him why he was being so distant. he was pissing me off with saying he had "family problems" so i decided to tell him what i knew. he changed the subject and started saying that i don't own him and that i shouldn't be mad at lena. that just broke my heart. lena started telling me that it wasn't like that, and how he never liked me in the first place. i was in the state of depression for half the fucking year. but i kind of got over it but it's still hurts." i burst into tears... once again. people were looking over at us. z took my head, put it on his chest and comforted me.

"damn el, that 'best friend' of yours is a fucking rat and so is that reid boy. DAMN! i'm triggered. the fuck. the guy's an absolute idiot for getting brainwashed, but you're mine and i'm glad you are. that lena girl though, fuck her. she's clearly a little bitch, she doesn't deserve you. baby, you're an amazing girl. anybody that hates you is an absolute idiot."

"aww z, i love you."

he kisses my forehead, "i love you too el. nobody's going to ever hurt you again, but maybe this all happened for a reason. like look, you went with your brother to la, you met ACTAUL FRIENDS who are willing to do anything and everything for you. especially protect you. you met me, a guy that actually loves you, unlike that douche bag," he says, with so much compassion. i'm such a lucky girl.

"you're right babe, you guys mean everything to me." i put my head on his shoulder.

*five hours later*

we finally arrive. we get out the plane, we didn't have to go to luggage, we only brought carry on because we were planning on staying for three days. i can see my mom from a distance waving her hand at us. i'm glad i got to see her after a month and a half, but at the same time i was annoyed with her for making me talk to fake ass people. we walk to her and i hug her really tightly and z not knowing what the hell to do just stood there.

"hi honey, how's la? do you like it there?"

"YES! i love it in la i get to be with eggwin, 2 "brother" figures, a best friend, and a lovely boyfriend." i say while holding z's hand and smiling at him

"oh, and i forgot this is zion. i love him to death, he treats me one hundred times better than lena and reid. not just zion, all the guys."

"hi zion! you better treat my daughter properly, but you seem like a nice boy."

"ye-es, mrs. honoret. i love your daughter. i won't hurt her or let anyone hurt her, she means so much to me. i love her." oh my gosh my zion is such a sweetheart, i love him. oh no, he's nervous around my mom, he doesn't know what my dad has to offer. my dad wasn't there so i had to introduce z to him at home.

"i hope you fulfill that. you look like you make my daughter happy," z just cracks a smile and my mom smiles back.

"okay. that was a great conversation guys. mom, tell me why i HAD to come back."

"okay, let me explain myself. they were desperate, i kept telling them that you moved to la with your brother but they kept insisting. they came to the house everyday till we said we would make you come back home. elizabeth, it seems like they really want to talk. give them a chance. it won't hurt."

"okay. okay. i understand."

but i really didn't. i don't know why they want to talk. it's been five months already. have they not moved on? they made ME suffer. so why the hell do they wanna talk.
