Bayleys POV
(3 years ago)
Today is the day, Im going to tell my best friend how I really feel. But how do I do that? How do I tell her that i love her as more then a friend? What if she doesnt like me back? But what if she does..

As if right on cue, my phone began to buzz.
"Hello?" I asked. "Hey Bayley, I heard there is a new restaurant just down the road and I was wondering if you wanted to go with me?" Sasha asked.

This is it, this is the perfect time. "Yeah, uhm sure, what time?" I asked nervously. "Not sure, my shift ends around 5:00 so maybe about 6:00, does that sound okay to you?" She asked. "Yeah, uhm sure." I asked as the anxiety in my chest began to take over.

"Are you okay, Bayley? You sound nervous." She asked concerned. Yup I'm great, just about to tell my best friend that I love her as more then a friend but no big deal.

"Uhm, yeah I'm fine just not feeling very well right now but I should be fine later." I said trying to hide the fact that my body was being overwhelmed with anxiety. She seemed to have bought it because she simply said "Okay, see you later hope you feel better." "Okay bye Sasha." "Bye Bayley." And just like that, the call had ended.

I started to think of all the things that could possibly go wrong. "What if she doesnt like me like that? What if she doesnt want to be my friend anymore? What if she hates me?"
Thoughts like these began to overflow my mind as I slowly lay down on my bed. And then before I knew it, I was asleep.

(3 hours later)
"Bayley. Bayley. BAYLEY!" I heard as I slowly woke up. "Oh hey Sasha, what are you doing here?" I asked still delirious. "We're going to go check out that new restaurant, remember?" She asked. That's when I remembered that I'm going to tell her how I really feel. Crap.

"Oh uh, yeah of course I remember." I said with my voice shaking a little. "Are you okay Bayley?" Sasha asks looking a bit worried. "Yeah uhm, I think I'm still a little tired but its okay." I said while looking down at my fidgeting fingers. "Okay well go get ready, I'll be in the livingroom." Sasha says while getting up to leave. "Okay." I say not really hearing what she said because of how loud my heartbeat is right now.

After Sasha left I ended up taking a shower. I got out, only to realise that I forgot my clothes. I then took a towel and wrapped it around me. I walk outside of my bathroom to get clothes. As I was looking for clothes, I heard the door swing open.

"Come on Bayley the restaurant closes in a-" she stops as she realizes that I'm only being covered with a towel. "Sorry uhm, I'll just go..uhm..over there." She then points outside the door and leaves my room.

I hurry up and grab my clothes and go back to the bathroom. I look in the mirror only to find out that I'm blushing like an idiot. I sigh and put my clothes on then head downstairs to see sasha. "Hey Sash, ready to go?" I ask trying not to be awkward. "Uhm, yeah." She says nervously. "About upstairs.." she starts but I cut her off by saying "it's okay, it was an accident." "Oh, okay well then let's go." She then grabs her keys and we head out the door.

(At the restaurant)
"So what's this places name again?" I ask trying to make small talk. "Uhm I believe it's called Phillips Diner." She says right before taking a bite out of her burger. "Oh, okay." I say getting more nervous by the second. "Are you okay Bayley? You were acting weird earlier, you're not even eating your food and your leg is doing that shaking thing that it does when its nervous." I looked down and realised she wasnt lying, my leg was shaking really fast and I didnt even know it. I then stopped my leg from shaking and my face began to turn red.

"Bayley, seriously your scaring me. What's wrong." She asks clearly worried. "Uhm, Sasha I need to tell you something.." I start to say only to be interrupted "here's your check, hope you enjoyed your meal." The waitress says with a smile. "Thanks." Sasha says as the waitress walks off. "So what were you saying Bayley?" She asks curiously. "Uhm, never mind lets just go home." I say getting up, not even letting Sasha answer. I make it to the car only to realise that Sasha has the keys. I sure as hell know I'm not going back in there, so I just waited by the car.

Sasha then comes out and gets in the car. We are heading back to my house in complete silence until she says "you know i had to pay the bill right." I then looked at Sasha getting ready to apologize only to realise that she had a small smile on her face. "I'm teasing, calm down." She says as she places a hand on my lap for comfort, making me jump. Sasha quickly removed her hand and asks "okay, seriously what's up?" "Uh nothing." I say attempt to lie, obviously failing because she said "Liar."

"What's wrong?" She asks again. "Uhm Sasha I need to tell you something.." I mumble. "Okay, what is it?" Sasha asks. "Uh..I uh.." I stumble not really sure how to say it. "Spit it out Bayley." Sasha says. "I like you..as more then a friend.." I say barely even audible. "What?!" Sasha says sounding both suprised and angry. "I like you.." I repeat. "Yeah I heard." She said, this time just sounding angry.

She then pulls over to the side of the road and says "Get out." "But Sash-" "I said get out!" She yells startling me a bit. "Sash cant we just talk about this? Please?" I ask. "Get the fuck out of my car and never talk to be again you stupid dyke!" Ouch. That hurt. "You dont mean that Sash.." I say while trying to ignore the stinging in my chest. "Yes I do. Get the hell out of my life Bayley. In fact, get the hell out of everyone's lives. Maybe you should just kill yourself because the world would be better off with one less fag in the world." That one really hurt. I didnt even try to argue with her this time I just got out of the car and walked away. At least I'm not to far from my house. I heard Sasha zoom away from be but i didn't bother turning around. Wow, that went from 0-100 real quick.

A/N: Why do yall think Sasha reacted like that?
