"And how does that make you feel?"

That line. That cliche line that every therapist asks their patients.

My least favorite sentence.

"Like an asshole. It happened because of me." I mumbled, staring off into the distance, fantasizing being anywhere but here.

"Now Avalon, tell me why you would run into a crowded street?" She asked calmy.

"It wasn't on purpose."

She wrote something down. Two words to be exact.

In denial

"This is bull! What's the point of having a therapist if they wont fucking listen to you!?" I screamed, Frustration getting the best of me.

"That's enough." Boomed a voice.

I turned to see my blue-eyed savior standing in the doorway, cold stare fixated on the woman.

She nodded quickly, collecting her stuff and exiting.

"Hey, how you feeling?" She asked, comfortingly placing her palm on my shoulder.

And that was the moment I broke down.

She embraced me tightly as I cried into her shoulder, probably soaking her shirt but if it bothered her, she didn't show it.

After a while of blubbering, I wiped my eyes and pulled away, forcing a smile on my face.

"Thanks Bil."

It was then that I realized how close we were.

I could feel her breath fanning on my nose.

If I just moved one inch...

'I-I cant do this. Fuck! Im gay!'

The line repeated over and over.

I'm gay.

Holy shit.

"Bil I th-"

I was cut off by her lips attatching to mine in an earth shattering kiss.

I was lost in it - in her. I was absolutely mesmorized.

And then I woke up.

Cierra's P.O.V

Babe
hey beautiful, i miss you. when are you coming back?

I smiled to myself as I read the text.

Finneas and I had been dating doe three days now. He asked me out on my last day in L.A., making it a bittersweet moment.

I told Autumn right away, to which she began screeching.

"Dammit why do you and Ava get the hot ones." She had said.

Me
i was just there. maybe you should come here?

Babe

Me

Babe

Me

Finally another opportunity to escapr this place!

Maybe if we are quick enough to get Ava and Billie together, she will be there too?

Eh I don't actually really care.

Genesis
oh my god guys... ava was in a car accident

What the - ?

Avalon's P.O.V

"Ms. Hayes?" The therapist - Mrs. Lee attempted to regain my attention.

"I asked you why you decided to run into the street?"

Did I just daydream about Billie coming to save me?

And we kissed.

My fingertips brushed my lips and I shook my head in confusion.

"It was honestly an accident." I replied, much calmer than the first time. "A lot was on my mind."

She began writing down a bunch of words, nodding her head.

"Things like what?"

"Things like her.. Her eyes, her smile, her voice.. Ugh she has the voice of an angel." I recited.

The therapist smiled at me

"Love." She said.

"Heck no! Not that intense but... It's something."

"Anything is enough am I right?" She asked amusedly.

"Yes... Yes I suppose it is... Thank you Mrs. Lee. I have something to do."
