Draykes p.o.v
It's been a whole day now.
A whole day since I've heard from Emma, and my heart was aching. I didn't think Haley joining us would be that big of a deal but clearly it was and I just couldn't bring myself to message her and ask what was up. Also because of the post Payton made about her, we all know how much he feels for her and by the looks of it they spent the night together.
Don't get me wrong. She can be friends with him but my anxiety is taking over and now I wonder if anything happened, I might  as well get it over with and text her.

Me: hey....can we talk?

Emma: yeah, what's up?

Me:I just wanted to apologize for last night I didn't mean to ditch you or anything, I just didn't really see anything by Haley joining us.

Emma: it's not that I was mad about Haley joining us, it's that we confessed everything earlier that day. So I thought it would just be the two of us to talk.....it's okay though.

Me:oh god Emma I'm so sorry! That had completely slipped my mind, how about later only the two of us go somewhere and talk:)

Emma: yeah sure. I'm just in Payton's room right now and I have my show soon but later on we can

Me: okay great! See you then

-end of convo-

So that was that. That wasn't too bad I suppose, I honestly never even considered our feelings into Haley coming with us. I really need to smarten up if I want us to work out.

-A FEW HOURS LATER-
Emma's show had just ended and we had planned to meet in my room. She should be here any minute now, as if I'm que the door opened and she slowly walked in and she looked, good. Like really good- "hey sorry I'm a bit late, I spilled my drink on me and this was all I had" she let out in one breath looking down at her outfit "em it's okay, you always look beautiful in my eyes" I reassured her causing her to blush and take her gaze to the floor. "So where did you want to go?" She questioned after a few minutes of silence "oh...uhm- we can just go walk through the beach if you want?" I said really unsure to go. She smiled and reached her hand out for me I gladly accepted and as my hand intertwined in her small ones the familiar sense of shock erupted in my hand making its way though my whole body, Ive missed this. I really have to smarten up if I want to keep her. "Drayke? Did you hear me?" Her voice bursted through my day dreams. "Hm?" "I asked if we could go get Starbucks first?" She said looking up in my eyes, god I could never say no to her I returned her a smile as to say yes, she smiled widely and guided me own the busy streets of Orlando.

On our way there we got stopped a few times for pictures by some supporters, and we finally ended up at Starbucks and we walked through the door laughing because Emma had kept falling over herself. "You're the clumsiest person I know I swear to god-" I said between laughs and she laughed along with me as we got in the lineup, there was only a few people ahead of us so it shouldn't be too long. And Before we knew it we where next "I got it" she said smiling at me, I knew there was no point so we walked up to the cashier and ordered "hi uhm- can I get a venti strawberry açai refresher with coconut milk and a venti iced caramel macchiato please?" She said to the cashier who smiled at us "of course, the total is $$ and your drinks will just be down there when they're ready" the cashier said to us with a smile "thank you" Emma responded and we walked down to pick up our drinks. "Thank you" I smiled at her which she returned back to me, we walked down to the beach and sat down on the bench. We must have been sat there for 20 minutes in silence "so... guess we should talk now huh?" She said breaking the calm silence she turned towards me as her hair blew lightly in the wind. I felt like this was a movie, the sun was setting it was beautiful oh with light wind and the most beautiful girl was sitting in front of me she was staring at me and I could tell she was getting inpatient- I sighed and laid my drink down and faced her "listen Emma, what I said the other day was 100% true and nothing has changed and I'm really sorry I honestly did not know or think that bringing haley along would affect anything or hurt you I'm so so sorry Emma please forgive me" I finished begging her and her eyes had glazed over with tears as I reached for her hand to hold. "Drayke I forgive you. I really do but please forgive me- I was so upset and hurt and felt betrayed but I i- I kissed Payton last night" I was shocked. Completely and utterly shocked. I leaned back and just stared at her as I took in this moment her cheeks have flushed her nose was rubbing and her tears where threatening to spill "you what? Why?" I choked out so hurt by what she had done not even 24 hours ago "I had seen the post Haley made about you and he was there- I was hurt dray I'm sorry" she said fiddling with her fingers I didn't know what to say so I just sat there my vision becoming blurry. How am I supposed to react to that? We just revealed our feelings the other day and she goes and kisses another guy? I don't know if I can forgive her for that.
