Harley's POV
Paisley grips my arm softly, attempting to lead me away from the scene. "Harley.." She murmurs, but I pull away. Billie. Billie is right there. Just my luck.
"It'll only take a minu-" My speech is cut off as Billie's eyes meet mine, those same sweet blue ocean eyes that I know all too familiarly. (Is that a word? Idk.) She instantly breaks eye contact, though, grabbing Takis from a nearby food stand.
"She hates me now." I sigh, feeling my heart drop into my stomach. Paisley shakes her head. "No mama, she doesn't." I wince as Paisley calls me mama. It reminds me too much of Billie. "It'll just take time for you two to get back together again." I nod in understanding, yet I still feel guilty. "I'm the one who screwed up at that party. I was drunk as fuck and didn't even know what I was doing. She never did anything. She kissed me and.. I rejected her." Tears begin to form at my eyes, and I finally sit on a bench to calm down.
Paisley rubs my back like she always does, comforting me silently. "I've wanted to tell you something for a while but.. I haven't had the courage to." I look to her in bewilderment. She takes a deep breath, closing her eyes. "And I know this isn't the right time but.." I shake my head. "Just say it, Paige."
"I like you, Harley." She finally blurts out. What? My mouth drops, unsure of what to say. "Paisley I.." I exhale slowly. Billie, Sky, now Paisley? I've never had so many people "like" me in such a short period of time, yet at all.
"Paige you're my best friend. I can't do that." I finally reply, my heart breaking into a million pieces as I see her eyes flash with hurt. "I don't feel like that for you." Paisley dips her head in acceptance. "I-It's fine, it's all fine. I knew it wouldn't work out anyways." She stammers quickly.
She looks at her phone before she stands up in a hurry. "Hey, I have to be somewhere. Get an Uber, ok?" She then speeds off across the mall, disappearing in the crowd. I don't have time to protest. I just sit on the bench, unsure of what to do. I feel like a horrible person. But there's still one person on my mind, and I can't get her out of it.
"Harley.." I look up, taking my head out of my hands.
Billie.
