On My Own A Diggy Simmons Love Story Book 3

Chapter 87: Together and Not Together

Elana P.O.V

I grabbed the ball that said hope and shot it in the basket. I wasn't trying to really talk to him now. Especially if all he had to say was negative. I said what I said to him upstairs so why can't he leave it at? I know we're not together so he doesn't even have to come tell me that. He grabbed a ball that said understanding and threw it the basket. He made a couple more shots before coming up to me. 

Elana: Look if you have something rude or stupid to say you might as well just leave.

Diggy: No I wanted to talk to you

Elana: Okay speak

Diggy: Is it alright if we're friends?

Elana: Oh come on Dig, we know that it never works. We can never be friends because we always become boyfriend and girlfriend right after.

Diggy: I don't know what else to call this relationship between us.

Elana: We don't have a relationship. You don't love me and you called me a promise breaker and a liar. *tears come to eyes*

Daniel hugged me but I wasn't hugging back. I didn't know what to do or why he even came back. I felt torn because now that I'm trying to become a better person he comes along ready to be apart of my life when just a few days ago I kicked me out of his. I pulled away from him.

Elana: What do you want from me? Haven't you done enough already? 

Diggy: I want to be here. I know what I said but you had me overwhelmed and I didn't know what else to do. You don't have to like me or even talk to me but at least you know that I'm supporting you. I don't even know what happened earlier.

Elana: Daniel just shut up because you're the liar. You think I don't know what you told the therapist earlier? But that's okay because I'll be leaving soon enough and you won't have to worry or support me. I don't need it from you. 

As I picked up another ball Diggy went to the wall and sat on the floor. He buried his head in his knees for a long time. I stopped dribbling and sat down by him. I grabbed a pen and grabbed his hand. I drew half a heart on his hand and the other half on mine. He looked down at his hand and mine.

Elana: We have love and hate relationship right now. You can't stand me and I can't stand you that is why we have a half hearts but when it's fixed we're like this. *puts hearts together*

Diggy: But it won't be that way again. 

Elana: If you're willing to not put what I did above my head then I won't put what you said over yours. We can work something out

Diggy: Alright then *smiles a little*

Elana: We'll be best friends until I think I'm fully back to how I used to be.

Diggy: *hugs her* I already can see it.

I got up and started playing again. Diggy got up and came behind me. I turned and hit him in the chest with the basketball causing him to back up.

Diggy: OW

Elana: I can see it too. *laughs*

Diggy chased me around the gym playfully. Maybe things can go back to how they were.

Iris P.O.V

I called Diggy and told him to come upstairs. When he did he looked exhausted from whatever he was doing

Diggy: What's up?

Iris: Khalil broke up with me

Diggy: I'm sorry that happened. 

Iris: Elana knew about it. It's her fault she didn't say anything about it.

Diggy: Actually its not because I called Khalil a few days before and he felt like you were smothering him because he was out of town. He probably did tell her to tell you but that whole situation happened so she wasn't thinking about it at the time. But I assure you she would have told you. 

I got quiet and looked towards the window. I felt so bad that I said that to her. 

Iris: Call her up here. 

I watched as Diggy texted her and she appeared at the doorway and rolled her eyes at me. She sat next to Daniel and he smiled.

Iris: I'm sorry I said all that. I didn't mean it I was just upset because I thought you didn't tell me Khalil broke up with me on purpose.

Elana: Sure I would not tell you on purpose *sarcastic, get's up*

Iris: I'm sorry

Elana: Alright

I watched as she walked out the room. Diggy looked at me before pulling out his phone. Maybe I can talk to Khalil if you want to still be with him. 

Iris: Okay

I snuggled with my teddy bear. Hopefully Diggy can work some love magic on him
