Zion

I kissed Anastasia softly and winked at her before walking down the driveway.

"Z!"

I turned to her and she had a sad look on her face.

"I'm sorry for everything. Honestly I am," she sighed with her voice cracking and I stared at her.

"It's fine," I smirked and turned back around.

Yea right. That's a bitch I will never trust.

I got in the Uber and put in my headphones. I went to my favorite playlist and hit shuffle.

"I Fall Apart" came on and I groaned. I swear to god this song comes on only when I'm depressed.

(Sb: no really that happens to me)

I went through my photos and saw a picture of Jewel.

She looked absolutely beautiful

She looked absolutely beautiful. It hurt. Like crazy to know she's not mine. Again. But she's Edwin's. A-fucking-gain.

I went on twitter and sighed.

I chose that picture and typed:

@zion_kuwonu: I know we're not on good terms. I know it's usually been rocky between us. But I can't erase the 13+ years that you've been there at my side. No matter what we go through, you're my greatest friend. We grew up together and no one can ever take away the memories we've shared since 3rd grade. Turn tf up today. See you in a few. Lots of love. Happy Birthday @jewel_ 🤟🏼❤️

I pressed Tweet and locked my phone. I don't even know what to do when it comes to her anymore. I feel like it's always gonna be Edwin. Maybe it really is time that I let her go for real. Like once and for all. There's a reason I'm back and I want to make new goals and fulfill them.

With or without her as my girl.

My phone vibrated and I saw a tweet from Jewel.

@jewel_: get home loser 😪❤️

I liked the tweet and the Uber pulled up to the house. I thanked the driver and went to the door opening it. I went inside and Jewel was coming down the stairs. I closed the door and she speed walked to me. I opened my arms and we hugged instantly. My heart raced with her in my arms but.. I'm ok. It's ok. It's fine.

"I didn't wanna be on bad terms on my birthday," she sighed releasing me.

"I know I didn't either. I'm just gonna suck up my pride and just be happy man," I replied and she nodded.
