NOELLE SAT ON THE EDGE of her bathtub, waiting for Autumn to arrive. She didn't dare to move, knowing Autumn already had a key to her apartment. Noelle was clearly not in a good state and it was obvious to everyone but her. She didn't want to admit to herself that a certain brunette still had power over her feelings. Their breakup was pretty recent, only being a week. They both agreed not to mention it for the first couple of days for grieving. Noelle did a lot of crying those days, but put herself back together with the help of her friends. That article though put her back in a tough spot.
The sound of keys unlocking the front door caught the attention of Noelle. She stopped herself from crying and tried maintaining a normal breathing pattern. She didn't want to severely alarm or startle her best friend. "I'm coming!" Noelle heard Autumn tell from across the house. Noelle didn't see a point in responding, knowing that Autumn knew where she was.
Autumn pops her head through the door way and says, "Come here." Her arms open wide, waiting for Noelle. Noelle stands up and slowly makes her way to the hug.
Autumn looks at the broken girl in her arms and sighs. It breaks her heart to see her best friends in this state of mind. She knew how much he meant to her. Fortunately, before heading over to Noelle's house, she bought ice cream. "I have ice cream if you want some," Autumn says, knowing this will make Noelle feel better.
Noelle's eyes light up at those words. "What kind and where?" The girl quickly asks.
"Ben and Jerry's on the kitchen counter. Have at it," Autumn tells her. With that, Noelle races to the kitchen. Autumn joins her best friend, hoping this well take her mind off of things.
