A/N okay I'm sorry for being so slack on this story,
I promise now that my exams are out of the way
I'll try to post as much as possible, also I only
have three weeks of school left (not that you care)
but when Summer break comes along I'll post ALOT
 because I have no friends and hate socialising so
I never go out :) anyway hope you enjoy the
chapter I promise drama is coming!

YOUR POV 

"hey" I smiled as my boyfriend emerged from the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his torso "so I was thinking we could take a peaceful walk through Central Park today, just you and me?" His voice seemed deeper as he slid open the closet doors and picked out some jeans and a sweater.

"Actualllyyyy" his eyebrows furrowed as I dragged out the end of the word "I kind of just made plans with some old friends but you're welcome to come with us if you want?" I cringed waiting for his reply, "oh ... Uh yeah I guess I'll tag along" 

Eli looked disappointed and I couldn't help feeling a shroud of guilt wash over me "okay, well we are leaving in 20, I'm gonna clean up the kitchen" I smiled weakly as I walked out of the bedroom" 

FINNS POV

"if she doesn't arrive in like 3 minutes can we pleeeease go inside I'm hungry" Jack Whined tugging on Jaedens arm "jack stop! you're not five" the taller boy spat in annoyance

 "I'm sure Y/N will be here soon" Millie assured Jack patting his head and giggling since she was so much taller than him despite the age difference.

"there she is!" Wyatt yelled pointing at the stunning girl stepping out of a sleek blue car. But she wasn't alone. "Who's that with her?" Sadie squinted at the two of them walking toward us as Y/N raised her hand to wave

"Eli" I muttered under my breath recognizing the boy instantly "who's Eli?" Sadie asked obviously hearing my frustration and not aware of their relationship via social media "her boyfriend" Wyatt added pointing to their hands clasped tightly together as they walked

"Well there goes project Y/S/N" Noah threw his hands up in the air followed by a couple groans from the others

"hey guys!" Y/N's harmonic voice interrupted the pity party amongst my friends "h-" BABY SUGAR MUFFIN CAKES" Jack screamed before I could say anything, the boy ran straight into Y/N almost knocking her over from the impact 

"Hey jackie" she giggled hugging her old friend "uh what?" Eli muttered into Y/N's ear, clearly confused by Jacks words "old inside joke babe don't worry" she chuckled rubbing his back to reassure her boyfriend

"Everyone this is Eli, and Eli this is Jack, Millie, Sadie, Jaeden, Chosen, Jeremy, Sophia, Noah, Gaten, Caleb, Wyatt and then Finn who you already know" she smiled pointing at each person with the introduction

"uh hi" Eli nodded awkwardly before looking over to Y/N who shifted her weight sensing the uncomfortable atmosphere upon us 

"Who's ready for froyo!" Millie cheered clearing trying to move on from the sudden surprise that Eli would be joining us

-----

YOUR POV

"OMG and that time it was literally 100 degrees and you just jumped into the hotel fountain IN THE LOBBY" I yelled pointing my spoon at Jeremy causing him to snort and spit his froyo everywhere

"ewwww!!!! it's in my hair!" Millie shrieked making everyone else laugh harder than before "I'm ... so ... sor ... ry" Jeremy spluttered through laughs

"lets not forget when we all went bowling last year and Sadie absolutely smashed us!" Caleb added "no need to brag but you all got like 10 points in total and I got 10 each turn" Sadie giggled

"so that's why you wanted to go bowling so bad!" I said eating another spoonful of froyo causing Sadie to nod proudly and the others to sigh as they realised they had no chance of winning later today.  

"or do you remember when you came to my house on your 18th birthday and got totally wasted" Eli attempted to join the conversation "uh yeah not my best moment" I laughed awkwardly looking around at the uncomfortable expressions on the others faces 

"okayyy" Finn smiled fakely as he got up "I'll go pay the bill and you guys can start walking toward the bowl alley" "thanks finnie" Sophia grinned also climbing out of the booth and making her way to the door as everyone else followed and carried on laughing and sharing memories with one another

"Hey babe ... can we talk?" Eli pulled on my arm to stop once we got outside "yeah sure" I smiled "hey guys we'll catch up" I yelled to the others who waved and carried on down the street in a pack, joking around

 "what's up" I asked turning back to the blonde haired boy "I think it's best if we go home" he stated blunty "wait what?"

 "I don't fit in with them, so I think we should go back to the apartment, or, or I could take you out to dinner? we haven't had a date in a while or I-" "Eli stop, I don't want to leave, I want to go bowling with my friends" my voice revealed more anger than I'd meant to, causing Eli's grip on my arm to tighten

 "I came all the way to New York to hang out with you Y/N why are you being so difficult?" his voice hissed out the words, I'd never seen him so angry before

 "I never asked you to come?! what's your problem" "what's my problem? my problem is that you're choosing them over me!" he gritted his teeth as his grip continued to get tighter and tighter on my arm 

"I haven't seen them in 4 years?! I see you everyday" I tried to stay calm but with his hand like a vice on my skin it was almost impossible "ELI! let me go!" I basically screamed and just as I did Finn emerged from the shop door behind my boyfriend.

 "I think you should listen to your girlfriend buddy" Finns words were like a soothing stream compared to the rage coated words Eli spat out with each protest for me to go home with him

 "fine! but I'm going home, I hope you have fun Y/N" he hissed dropping my arm which hit my thigh limply, blood rushing through the deprived veins once again. 

I rubbed my wrist as Eli's hand mark stood red on the skin like an unwanted tattoo, he stepped into my car parked on the street and shut the door 

"THAT'S MY CAR ASSHOLE" I shouted and soon after the engine started up and he drove away.

"Y/N?" finn took a step closer and glanced at his toes "are you okay?" I hid my arm behind my back and pasted on a smile "I'm fine, thank you! now shall we catch up with the others?" I suggested 

"uh yeah..." Finn seemed slightly confused by my unexpected positive persona but he joined my side as we walked swiftly to the group of losers ahead of us not saying a word.
