A FEW DAYS LATER

CHRIS'S POV

Hayes and I haven't been talking for days. A really long time. We don't even look at each other. And I miss him too.

I wish we made up. But we didn't.

Today is my birthday, and I'm honestly not that excited.

I hear my phone buzz from the night table in the guest room. I moved into Cora's room. Even thought I still hate her, I can't stand being in hayes room. It's too awkward. Plus she's out for the weekend.

I roll over and look at it. Birthday message from my sister, at college. I quickly replied, and got out of bed.

I put my hair in a bun and put my glasses on. I'm too lazy to get dressed right now.

I walk downstairs and it's quiet. Too quiet.....

I begin to walk slowly into the kitchen. I pop my head in, and there is a cake. And breakfast. "Happy birthday Christiana!" They all chanted.

A smile grew on my face, as I hugged each one of them. Hayes was even there. I stood there awkwardly in front of him, rocking back and forth on my heels.

He slowly brought me into a hug. "I expect the second piece of cake because I planned it all" he boasted and I giggled.

We sat down at the table and dug into the breakfast. It's summer so I have no idea what's happening today.

After we were done, I headed upstairs and hayes caught me. "Hey chris" he says.

"Oh hi"

"Get changed into a bathing suit" he blurted and I nod. I pick out a black top and mint bottoms.

After I changed into those I walk downstairs and to the kitchen. Hayes is waiting for me.

"Cmon let's go outside" he says pulling my hand.

"It's like 8 in the morning" I complain.

"Actually, it's 12" he corrected me. Wow I slept late.

Outside the pool was open filled with bubbles and water balloons. There were tables mounted with foods and drinks. And everyone was there.

My friends. My family. My parents. Nash and the guys. Some of my cousins. I screamed and hugged hayes. Then I ran over to my parents. Then the guys. Then my cousins and friends.

Steph was here.

I walked over to her slowly, after I have greeted everyone else. We just rammed into each other, giving a bone crushing hug. "I'm so so sorry, chris" she said.

"I know" I say back.

We let go and start laughing. We talk for a little while and then I went off and bumped into hayes.

"Hey Christiana" he smiles.

"H-Hi" I stutter.

"Can we go to the front? And talk?" He asks and I agree by nodding.

He smiles widely and takes my hand. He sneakily leads me to the front, probably not wanting to be seen by anyone.

He rocks back and forth on his heels, face to face with me. I fold my hands and keep them in front of me, not making eye contact.

We don't say anything. It was kind of like what me and Steph did. We crashed into each other, hugging tightly.

Not gonna lie, a few tears did drop from my eyes. I missed him so much.

I tried not to sob. "Christiana, I'm so so deeply sorry" he says softly in my ear.

I stay silent and just enjoy my self being in his arms. "I feel so terrible you have no idea" he mumbles again.

"It's okay" I pull away and smile. "I forgive you" I add and giggle.

"So...." He trails off as we back away slightly.

"So...." I mimic.

Instead of saying anything else, or backing away, I step closer to him. He steps closer to me, so I can feel him breathing on my face.

His lips press against mine, moving in the perfect sync, the perfect rythym. This reminds me of our first kiss. So many sparks, so many butterflies, so much love.

"Friends?" I ask him as we pull away.

He nods and we walk back into the front yard, as friends. At least I have the bestest friend ever.
