okay last chapter was a bust and not as long as i said so, so here's your 2k word chapter i deserve it 🤪
maisie ミ★
joey and i haven't talked in a while. but him and his hookup? they're together now. believe it or not, i still live here. very sad, yes.
i'm currently in my bedroom, headphones in, world out. i type on my computer, reviewing the rooms that were for rent. i couldn't stay here, especially not with joey and how heartbroken i am. we never even broke up, ever.
+
i purchased a room, and still. no words to and from joey for a month. i didn't miss him, and i cannot stress this enough. i am oh so so so so beyond happy.
i grab the last box and haul it into the back of my car, hearing the hum of an engine pulling up. "fuck." i mutter to myself, glancing at joeys Prius parked in front of my car.
(IM FUCKING CRYING I HAD TO MAKE JOEY HAVE A FUCKING PRIUS I HAD TO HAHAHA)
joey trots past me, but soon backtracks. "what the fuck." he breathes out. "i'll break up with her please maisie." he begs as he grabs my shoulder and turns me to himself.
i furrow my eyebrows. "it won't be any different, you didn't see me really ever for two months almost." i say with no emotion as i close the trunk, turning back to joey. "you, your prius, and your hookup can have fun together.. and please, name a baby after me, or atleast a dog, maybe a fish." i tease, looking at joeys emotion.
he was sad. that sucked for him.

i pull into the parking lot. my new apartment was located not too far from the old one, but it was near beverly hills.
did i forget to mention it's huge, and i'm moving in with mark and sophia?
i greet mark by the door and hug him, "how'd joey take it" he asked as i walked besides him to the car. i shrug, "didn't really pay attention to that, just like he didn't pay attention to who he slept with."
mark laughs, "you really turn shit into positivity huh." he said while grabbing a box and looking at me. his smile growing wider.
i nod. "something's better than nothing." i say with a giggle as i walk into the apartment and into my room. i take in the room, it was huge.
the windows were beautiful, i had the view of a beach and the sunset. i had my own bathroom, and i even had a small pantry in the corner of the room. yes, i did love it here.
+
i soon finished packing and got into my pajamas, sitting in my bed and turning on netflix. about an hour later mark peeks through my door, "another roommate, can you help with the furniture?" mark asks as he grins, giving me puppy dog eyes.
i groan and give in, getting up out of my bed and walking out into the hallways.
my eyes grow wide as i see blake, "blake!" i shout, his arms going around me just as mine did the same with him. "oh my god i missed you" i say with a smile.
blake laughs and hugs me tight, "i missed you too smalls." he said with a laugh. i cant believe i never even thought of calling blake and hanging out with him.
both mark, blake, and i all got blake's stuff into his room, mark went to sleep which left me and blake alone. i furrow my eyebrows once i notice his bed missing. "uh, where's your bed?" i tilt my head. blake looks at me, "it won't be here till sunday." he huffs as he grabs a pillow.
"are you sleeping on the floor?" i ask, slightly frowning. blake nods, shrugging it off like no big deal. i grab blake's arm and drag him into my room. "sleepover until you get your bed, it's really not a big deal and plus, i missed having you around." i nudge his side and smile.
blake tosses me onto the bed and smiles, "i missed you too, but i seriously don't have to crash with you, smalls." he said softly. "the floor is fine."
i insist on him staying with me, and soon enough end up winning a rock paper scissors battle against him. "hah." i mumble, blake grabs me and hugs me. "thank you for being so welcoming, and sorry for getting all soft."
he laughed softly and let go.the night consisted of me and blake watching movies, we watched the 5th wave, paper towns, the fault in our stars and 101 dalmatians, which may i add was the best one yet, seriously.
i start drifting off, letting my head lean onto his shoulder while i smiled dazily. "smalls." blake whispers, i open my eyes quickly. "hm?" i responded. "remember when we kissed that one time." he said, his hand inching closer to mine.
i nodded slightly, waiting for him to continue.
"i miss that night." he said quietly as his hand took mine, intertwining our fingers. i smile to myself as i remember how kind blake was, how sweet he was 24/7.. and to think i chose joey over him is beyond my words, crazy.i look up to blake, who's looking at me already. i feel the butterflies gain up in my stomach as he leans in close, placing his lips onto mine softly. his free hand placed on my jaw, while i scooted closer to him, my hand wandering in his hair lazily.
he unlatched his hand from mine and placed it at my hip, while i felt his head tilt into the kiss. this was so much softer, more gentle than joeys kisses. no trace of alcohol, no feeling of guilt or betrayal. just happiness, and a little lust coming from blake but that's all.
