Mal's POV

Evie was still sad about her breaking up with Doug, she barely eats and she's always quiet. She never eats with me and Ben every breakfast, she said she wants to be alone

She never acknowledge me everytime i walk inside our dorm, she would just greet me and turned back to what she's doing, like watching a movie, or playing with her phone

It's worrying me

I guess the time when the three of us hanged out wasn't enough for her, i feel sorry for my bestfriend and i'm not doing anything about it

I'm always busy with our wedding. Oh i always hear people and students talk about the wedding everyday, i'm happy about it but it's so tiring of people saying it everyday

Not like i want to stop the wedding

Right?

I love Ben, that's why i accepted his proposal. Just me, forgetting about all the bad stuff that happened a long ago when we're still in high school and Ben got kidnapped blah blah blah

I don't really want to talk about it

I walked through the empty hallways and towards Evie and I's room. I opened it, revealing Evie focused on her laptop. Her head looked up at me, i smiled

"Hey Mal..." she mumbled, before turning back to her laptop, i frowned and walked towards her. She seems to be watching a movie

"Look, i know you're sad. But move on, Doug was kind of worried that you're not showing up. He said that he was upset but he'll be fine, that you two can still be friends. The others were worried too, i'm worried, E..." she sighed, her eyes still on the laptop. I then paused the movie she was watching, earning a glare from her "Come on, if us hanging with Jay and Carlos is not good enough. I'll treat you food, just the two of us. Have a girl talk" i pulled her up

She let out a groan "M, i don't want to go out..." she whined, trying to get herself out of my grip

"Nope, you're not staying here. You need real fresh air. Now, go change and i'll wait for you here" i patted her back, pushing her towards our walk-in closet

"I'm not gonna like this..." i heard her mutter

I giggled "You will!" I then sat down at my bed, my eyes roaming around the room as i wait for her to get change

It's weird

Evie and i kind of, swapped personalities ever since Ben proposed to me. She used to be the early bird, i was the 'i hate mornings' one. She used to be energetic one, and i was the lazy one. I miss the old annoying but still amazing Evie, so much

I wonder what changed her...

Minutes later, she walked out of the closet, revealing herself in a beautiful blue (of course) dress. I gave her a smile, she never failed to look adorable

"Looking great as always, E" i giggled, giving her a thumbs up. I stood up fron my bed and patted her shoulders "C'mon, i know a place where we can go"

"I just want to stay in our room, Mal. I'm tired" she boredly complained

"Evie, you always say that you're tired. Knock it off, it's worrying me, really..." i turned to her, holding up her hand and intertwining our fingers "You, have to get out and join us. Don't stay in our dorm and just watch movies everyday, it's tiring. I want the old Evie that is so energetic and loves to design dresses, which you're not doing now because of...you know. Please, E, for me..."

I begged her because i really want my bestfriend that i had just a week ago back. And if she still declines, then i don't know anymore

She sighed, as she stared at me sadly in the eyes "I'll...i'll try, M. I'll try being the old me...for you..." she smiled, a sad one but i'm still happy that she smiled. We continued our walk

When we got to the place, her eyes widen at the view. Well, she has never been here before, this is where Ben used to take me out on a date. And now, i'll take Evie on a date here

...I-in a friendly way

In the table was already food, yeah, i prepared them before going to our dorm

And i'm happy there was no animal to eat it

Or else

I'm gonna steal my magic book in the museum so i won't waste a lot of time making another food by myself again

The foods on the table were foods that Evie loves, Cooking Class really paid off eh. I practiced it many times with a little help of Jane who was good at baking

"You made this? Like, all of this?" She asked, pointing at the foods on the table. I chuckled and nodded

"I know you really loved these kinds of foods and desserts so...it all you can" she sat down, her head looking at the side, at the river. I sat down in the opposite chair, smiling as her reaction was amazed "It's pretty in here, isn't it?" I asked her

Her head then turned back towards me, with a real smile plastered on her face. Wow, i never thought her mood would lighten up that fast "I love it, M..." she muttered but was still loud enough for mw to hear

"See? You love it! You lied to yourself about not liking it" she grabbed one of the bite size desserts, examinig it before taking a bite

She groaned "Mal, this is perfect. You copied it perfectly" she took a bite again, staring at the view on her side

"I'm happy that you're already smiling, E...i'm happy that i can make you...happy..." i softly smiled

"Well, that's what best friends are for, right?" She asked, though i noticed her tone was different. It was...sad again? "Anyways, what were they talking about while i locked myself inside our bedroom?"

"Ben have been asking me if you ever talk to me. And yeah, like i said everyone was pretty worried..." i sighed, grabbing her hand from across the table. I want to know what's happening to her and why she was acting like that

On why she really broke up with Doug

LIKE THEY WERE REALLY IN LOVE

I could see it in her eyes

"Evie, is it okay if i ask you a question?" I asked her, she glanced down at my hand that was holding hers and back at me, she nodded "Why have been acting strange since...Ben...proposed to me?"

She then swatted my hand away, grabbing another dessert and taking a bite of it silently. No replies

Oh?

"Evie"

"It's nothing..." she muttered, her eyes just focused on the lake

"Evie, say it-"

"I said it's nothing!" I flinched when she cutted me off. By her tone, i can tell she was irritated...but why? I looked with worry and confusion, she sighed "I'm..i'm sorry. I just...i don't know why..."

Her voice were becoming shaky and she was now letting out a sob, i mentally cussed. I, am, still, confused

A few minutes ago she was happy and now she's crying. She was never like this, never

I immediatly sat from my chair and walked towards, i wrapped my arms my shoulder, feeling her tears fall down onto my wrist "oh my god Evie please...tell me what's wrong?"

"Mal...i love you..." she said between sobs

"E, i do too but pl-" she then pushed me off her as she quickly stood, i almost stumbled but kept my balance

What the hell?!?!?

"No, Mal! I. Am. In love with you!"

My eyes widen
