Don't Let Her Go (G x G) COMPLETE ✔️💯

Chapter Twenty Two

Sasha's POV

I listened to the music coming from my headphones. It's probably unhealthy to be listening to music at max volume but I couldn't care less right now. I adjusted myself against the tree as I looked towards the town. I took out my headphones to hear the beautiful sound of nature, and the occasional honking of a car or the occasional biker that would pass by me.

There were good memories.

There were bad memories.

I don't regret either.

This is where I grew up, this is home. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love it here. It's just, everything gets boring at some point.

The place gets boring.

The buildings get boring.

The people get boring.

You want to know what I always thought would be nice?

To move somewhere else.

Somewhere, where the people there won't know me, it's new faces.

Somewhere, where I don't know everyplace like the back of my hand.

A new place.

A new adventure.

"Yeah, that would be nice." I mumble to myself.

I look out onto the town once again, seeing all the buildings being illuminated by the setting sun, leaving a beautiful orange - yellow color.

"Sasha?" I hear someone say, I turn my head and see Bayley.

"Hey" I say and pat the space next to me. Bayley takes a seat besides me and we both sigh.

"What are you thinking about?" Bayley asks making me smile.

"Just random things, life, people." I say making her nod.

"Is there something else? Look Sash I know you like coming here when your stressed out and I know we haven't been talking much lately mainly because your mad at me bu-" I cut off her rambling.

"You sure I'm the one who's stressed out?" I say making her calm down and smile, "Bails I'm not mad at you, I can never be." I say making her smile grow larger.

"Then how come you decided to come here?" She asks

"I've just been thinking about some stuff." I say

"What kind of stuff?" She asks

Deciding against being sarcastic I say, "What I want with my life, I feel like I don't want to be tied to this town anymore Bay."

"You want to leave?" She asks, I see the hurt clear in her eyes.

"Yes" I simply answer in all honesty.

"Oh, well, if that's what you'd want?" Bayley says trying to sound supportive but I can see her eyes water.

"Not now, maybe after high school or who knows maybe I will just stay?" I say making her wipe her eyes.

"Thank god, I don't want you to leave." She says

"I don't want to leave you either Bayley." I say

"Why do I feel like there's a but?" She says making me chuckle a little.

"But I want to be happy, I want to meet someone, I want to go explore!" I say

"But your my best friend." Bayley says, I look at her and see a tear run down her cheek.
