From Hate to Love (5SOS)

Chapter #32

Eh, so I wanted to sandwich Connor but no. ._.

It's Beth btw. .3.

Connor sighed as he looked at the bouquet of flowers he was about to give to the person he still loves. He was afraid of getting rejected. Although he wanted Nat to be in his embrace, but she seem to fall in love with someone new. Of course, as her best friend, he wanted to be as supportive as possible. As long as she's happy, he was happy.

He sighed as he knocked on the door with all his might. "Coming!" He heard Nat's gentle voice. The door bursted open as he saw Nat's eyes filled with sadness.

Her smile faded, followed by a door slam. Luckily, Connor's hand went in the way.

"Ow!" He groaned in pain.

Nat's eyes suddenly filled with worried, "Oh my god, I'm so sorry!" the door swung open.

He chuckled and looked at her with a mischievous smirk.

Nat's face turned into an annoyed expression. "I have no time for this."

Connor grabbed her shoulder and laughed, "Wait!"

"I.. have flowers for you. It's an apology.. Just accept it and we can be best friends again. I can be your sidekick. Be by your side when you cry and be just that supportive best friend."

*Connor's POV*

She paused for a second and gently took the flowers and looked at me, "Yeah, I'd like that." a smile broke out on her face.

I hugged her and I started grinning, "We should go do something." I said happily. She sighed "Before you get to happy, I really need to tell you something." she said.

I gave her a confused look, "You can come in for a sec, I'll be right back" she said and ran upstairs.

I stepped inside and shoved my hands into my pocket, Natalia's mom noticed me from the kitchen.

"Hey Connor" she shot me a smile and continued to do the dishes "Hi Mrs.Blue" I smiled "I haven't seen you in a while" she said "Yeah, got busy with school stuff" I lied, she nodded and stopped talking to me.

Natalia came down the stairs, shoving a beanie over her head, "Hey mom, I'm gonna go out with Connor for a bit." she said, her mom sighed "Okay, we still gotta talk later" she said, Natalia nodded and we left the house.

*Natalia's POV*

"You've been wearing a lot of sweatshirts lately." Connor smirked, "My excessive amounts of sweatshirts doesn't matter right now, I need to talk to you about something else." I said "Then just tell me already!" he whined. "Are you okay with crying in public?" I asked "I'm pretty sure it won't be that bad, I usually don't cry" he said, "Trust me, you will" I said.

"Then just tell me so we can get this over with!".

"It's about Madyson.." I started, he looked at me worriedly, he knew aswell that she had problems at home, most of her close friends knew though.

"Ashton, uhm, well from what he told me he was walking in the back-alley by 22nd street and he saw her whispering things to herself like, things will be better, and apparently she had a knife and, uhm, Ashton t-tried to stop her b-but it was t-too l-late-" I stopped and started madly wiping away tears.

I explained everything and he stopped completely, his jaw was literally dropped, I was crying for the millionth time in the past week.

I hugged him and we both just kinda stood there for a while in each others embrace, I could tell he was crying now, which was a rare thing for him to do, he's not really a emotional person. He's usually the one by our sides while we cry over stupid little things.
