She's Back

*Wait: Part 1*

I always thought he'd be there for me, like one of those friends that just stuck around forever, like in that show 'How I met your mother', that's a good show. I never realized he would actually leave me, for no reason either. I'm talking about my best friend Zephyr, pronounced zefer or zef for short, it's Greek.

I met him when I was in seventh grade at a cafe when i fell over, he was super sweet and made sure I had a friend to come and help me and he paid for a new drink. I ended up getting his Snapchat because he was pretty cute but we just became fast friends. That was the first and only time i ever met him.

I know you think that's pretty strange but he was on vacation to Florida when in reality he lived in LA. We facetimed all the time and we both had our issues but we never spoke about them, they were mental health related but we never got deep. We spoke on text if we didn't have wifi but Snapchat was our main place. I loved him with all my heart and he did too until he got back together with Sally in grade 10 for the 13134274626 time.

Okay, I may have been over exaggerating but it honestly felt like that. This was the first time after two months in which he found a new girl to add to the list of his exes. Sally hated me and was jealous of me and it was this time I wish I spoke to him about his mental issues because she broke him. And he dropped me...

That's our backstory, no fallout. He just stopped being nice and talking to me, I was basically having a one-sided conversation. I unadded him and he didn't care.

Oh, I'm Aurora by the way but I only reply to Rory because trust me, I'm far from a Disney princess.

*RORYS PoV A YEAR LATER*

I arrived in LA a week ago. I have a couple friends I guess and I settled in okay. My moms job got relocated and I'm now here I guess.

I walk from my art class to lunch trying to find my way around school. It's my first day in school and it literally sucks. I know nobody.

I hug my laptop close to my chest and focus on my bag on my back and the music playing in my ears because I can't get enough of Billie Eilish. But unfortunately my music stops and it is replaced with my ring tone. I change my ringtones for people so right now I have Mulan playing which is Meghans favourite Disney movie once again reminding me I really need to watch it before she brutally murders me.

"Hey!" I say into the mic of my earphones after answering.

"It's weird you not being here" she says and I can tell she is sulking.

"Well I'm literally alone walking through the halls pushing past people way taller than me with no friends to go and meet. You still have the whole crew" I sigh

"Well call JJ I bet he goes to your new school" Meghan points out

"Okay one we never speak of that squad again and two it's LA. It's huge. I highly doubt we're in the same-" I start pointing out until I see him "holy shit I see JJ"

"Rory!!!! Run." Meghan says

"You just said to talk to him!" I reply desperate for help as I hide behind my locker door I navigated my way too

"What do I know I'm just some dumb girl from Orlando! I got Mickey Mouse on my mind" she jokes but also slightly serious

"Hey! We have spoken about stereotyping ourselves as Disney lovers just cause we live a five minute drive from it" I scold her

"Correction. I live a five minute drive from it." She points out

"Woah. Uncalled for." I say and in that moment I dropped my laptop. "Shit Meg I gotta go! Love you bye" I said hanging up and throwing my phone and earphones into my bag. "Crap" I mumble to myself.

I feel the eyes on me as I close my locker and sit in front of it opening my laptop trying to test it too see if it works. I type in my password incorrect once and i feel someone slump next to me.

"Try the password JJisBAEBAE" he says snatching my laptop and typing it in which is wrong and I get one more attempt.

"Try go away" I say typing in the right password, seeing that it's okay and putting it in my locker.

"Awh Aurora I've missed you" he says standing up

"I haven't missed you Jay" I say standing with him looking up at this guy that's 6'2 when I'm only 5'4

"We all have missed you Rory, also what the fuck are you doing in Santa Monica" he asks

"Mom got relocated in her job" I say

"Ah, you should have told us, spooky you came to our school, right?" He says

"Sure, I'm going to go so-"

"Nope, come sit with us at the table" JJ offers

"No. I'll maybe talk to you later, bye Jay" I smile sadly and walk to the cafeteria.

I look around and realise it's arranged by popularity. You had unpopulars closest to the door and it gets prettier as you go on. Great, where the hell do i go?

I scan the cafeteria and my eyes linger on the popular table soon realising they were the people I called my friends throughout middle school and high school. I only ever met Zephyr and JJ (who came on vacation in grade eight) but wow I loved these guys. It's crazy to think I used to be close with them and now I look at them as strangers.

May-belle: my best girl friend from the group. Long brown hair, drop dead gorgeous, really good singer. She was amazing. We call her May.

Annalysia: we call her Liss but her hair is shortish with darker brown hair.

JJ, Jayden or Jay: Tall with shaggy brown hair and from South Africa, he was cute

Lucas or Luke: Blonde hair blue eyes what else is their to say honestly? Hot.

Noah: Blonde and from New York so he had a bit of a temper, also hot.

Me: long blonde hair and smallish

Finally, Zephyr: my ex best friend, light brown hair and hotter than them all. His features stood out more and the was something captivating about him.

I loved them with all my heart but looking at them now killed me. Actually it was only when I saw that JJ and Zephyr weren't there I left. I can't let them walk in and see me. I look down and start walking to the door as fast as I can until I'm stopped

I walked into a hard built thing and I have no idea what it is. Through my hair I recognise the blue eyes I got lost in when I met him. Dan he got way too tall.

"Shit, sorry are you okay?" He laughs.

I nod and try to walk round him.

"Are you new? I don't think I've see you before?" He said stopping me.

My hair is still covering my fave and I push through them and walk into another person. Oh god. It's May. How great. My hair is no longer hiding my face and I can no longer hide my identity.

"Aurora!" May squeals

"Hi..." I say slowly

"Rory?" Zephyr says as I turn around and look at him.

Oh no.
