Don't Call Me Baby (Billy Hargrove)

-Chapter sixty eight-

I just wanted say THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!! My story is legit at 530k and I'm sooooo happy!!! I seriously couldn't have gotten this far if it weren't for you guys, the people who actually read my story no matter how cheesy my chapters are, and how long I take to update, y'all are the real mvps:')

So yeah I added in some Billy fluff at the end for y'all and there should be more of that to come!!

Also I wanted to try this thing, like if y'all have any questions to ask about me or my story you can comment them and I'll either make a chapter answering them or just answering them in general (you can if you want, you don't have to) But yeah y'all can ask just about anything :))

Again thank you so much, I hope y'all stick around with me until the end of the story, I appreciate & love all of you!!

'Oh, he's still not home? Sure that's fine, could you tell him I called please, thank you' I say as I hang up, and I sigh heavily at another failed attempt to reach Steve. He's been avoiding me for the last two weeks, and every time I try to reach him he's either not at home, or skipping school, he seems to be getting into the habit of ditching classes now.

'He probably just needs some time alone' Nancy says as she hands me the bag of M&Ms and I grab a handful before shoving the whole lot into my mouth, this situation has just been frustrating. I don't want things to be left at this, I want to make amends because I know we can. I just wish he wasn't being difficult.

Nancy lays on my bed and attempts to distract with some magazines and for a while it helps, the time goes by and I realized we weren't even talking about Steve and I. I'm sure she was sick of me talking her ear off about it, I already did that last week and she already gave me advice, but it's been hard to cope with.

An hour passes before we decide that Nancy should be heading home and she picks up my telephone to call her parents to come pick her up, they said that they'd be over in ten.

'Steve will be Steve, give him a little more time and he'll come around, just breath and keep living your normal life- also Jordan told me to give you this' Nancy says as she hands me a paper folded neatly, and I feel a pang of guilt in my chest as I grab ahold of it. I hug Nancy as she leaves my porch, wave out to Mrs.Wheeler and watch as their car disappears from my street.

Hey, I'm sorry about what happened again, I want to talk please - J

I felt like shit for giving Jordan the cold shoulder but I just wanted to sort out my relationship problems, I've already dragged him into it enough. He didn't deserve to suffer from my problems, so I thought I'd just give our friendship some space and have a breather for a while. But I guess I shouldn't have abandoned him like that, so I decided to talk to him the next day at school.

'Hey Jordan' I say quietly as I fiddle with the straps of my bag, and he shuts his locker door from the sound of my voice.

'Oh hey Emilia, long time no see' Jordan says before an awkward silence casts over us, and I find myself tapping my foot against the ground, and I sigh heavily before finally having the courage to say something.
