Elana P.O.V

I waited for someone to come to the door. I watched as the doorknob turned and the door opened. Diggy appeared and gasped.

Diggy: You coming home?! Tell me you coming home today!!!

Elana: Maybe…*smiles* can I come in and see the rest of the family?

Diggy: Yeah…but they’re not here yet. *lets her in*

Elana: Then who is?

Diggy: Iris…

Elana: She move into my room yet?

Diggy: Elana no. I would never let her do that. I’m not even interested if that’s what you’re trying to say.

Elana: *puts arms around Diggy’s neck* so who is your interest?

Diggy: *picks her up off the ground* you

Elana: *leans in to kiss but gets interrupted*

Iris from upstairs: Diggy!!!

Elana: *sighs* Diggy put me down.

Diggy: *puts her down* I’m sorry she misses her mom. She had been crying. I was comforting her.

Elana: Oh. Then I should go home then. I don’t want to make it worse.

Diggy: Elana your not. But your kind of making me upset though. If your going to act like a little girl here then your right you should go home *goes upstairs*

The way he said it and what he said kind of made tears rise to my eyes. I sucked it up and went upstairs. I heard the sniffles of Iris from down the hall. I walked into Diggy’s bedroom and I looked around. Nothing changed since the last time I was here. I looked around and saw one of my old photo albums. I grabbed it and collapsed on the bed. I opened it and looked at the pictures of Diggy and I. We were only friends when we took some of those pictures. I smiled a little bit. I turned the page and my bright smile faded as I looked at the picture I took of Diggy and Iris. My eyes burned just staring at it. Just then Diggy walked in and lay next to me. He kissed me on the lips but I didn’t kiss back. I closed the book and stared at the ceiling.

Diggy: So you are not talking to me now? Look…I know I shouldn’t have said it so rudely but what happened with the whole situation thing happened a while ago! I hate to say it but its time to get over it.

I sat up as all the patience drained out my body. I bit my lips tightly and I knew I was going to say everything on my mind.

Elana: Get over it? How can I get over that? I’m still barely able to start healing! *slams open photo album and shows picture of them as friends* I fell in love; deeply in love with this boy. I was living in a fantasy and he made forget all my bad thoughts or past. He knew how to make me feel like I was special even when I felt I wasn’t. But when that happened it was like a hurricane. It just shows up sometimes without a warning and you have to deal with the after affects. I’m sorry if I wasn’t quick to get over stuff like Nicole was or is. It’s just that Iris was more than a friend or even a best friend. She was like my cousin. I love her but I don’t trust her; the same as you. You have to prove to me that truly love me and is faithful. Otherwise this is only going to get worse Daniel.*lays back down and Diggy lies on his stomach while putting his arm across her stomach*

Diggy: How about we go on vacation? Just you and me any place you want to go.

Elana: That sounds fun *smiles* but…I’ve been away from my family long enough. Plus we have school and I wouldn’t want to take you away from mom. As much as you leave she should have put you on lockdown.

Diggy: Why do you have to be such a good girl? *starts to mock* that sounds fun but I’ve been away from my *Elana hits him playfully in the arm*…OW! You can’t be abusing your boyfriend. *smiles*

Elana: You abuse me everyday.

Diggy: How? I never laid a hand on you beautiful.

Elana: With your love *smiles*

Diggy: *grins* I know what to do to now.

Elana: wait what?

Diggy: I know what to do about us. This is the only thing that can fix us fully. *hears family coming into house* they’re here.
