A story dedicated to my good friends: totally was not a result of peer pressure
Ashley POV
I stare blankly at the whiteboard as my teacher is going over the lesson for today. It's the normal everyday routine as I walk aimlessly from each class without learning any new beneficial information that could be useful for my future.
"Hey! What are you doing there?" says my energetic friend, Hannah. We recently became friends with one another and already she has given me many moments that I could look back upon and cherish. It is just the two of us just rolling through each and every day, living life in the fullest up until graduation.
"Helllooo~ your blanking out again.. your not forgetting about me again right?" Hannah states with a bit of irritation. Cause yes I'm quite the forgetful person. It's quite severe to the point I even forgot Coraline, my adopted sister, lived in the same house as me. I should seriously start getting a life, that consists of remaining outside of my room and without my laptop.
"No! I mean maybe.. you should know how I am by now. Once I zone out it becomes hard to drag me into the real world."
"Oooof, you right girl! I should know to not talk to you in the morning. Your just a soulless body walking around these hallways at this time of day." Hannah says as she giggles, showing her dimples off for the world to see. "Anyways let's go to class now! I'm ready to see my hubby~"
As she drags my corpse down the hallway to our classroom, I can't help but reminisce of my past with Hannah's "hubby", who happens to be the one and only Kim Taehyung. Before Hannah became my friend and during my middle school days, you could say Tae and I were the "sweetheart couple". I remember falling for his ethereal looks that were outshined by his kindness and overall dorkiness. The definition of the most perfect boy in the world that obviously had all the girls falling for him. Which ultimately would be the ruin of our relationship, due to my timidness I felt as though Tae deserved someone way better than me. I couldn't believe that of all the girls he would choose me. And so even if I loved him with all my heart, I ended my relationship with him. Now we are both only friends, wish I am glad about, but I find it hard to hide my past from my one and only true friend.
As we arrived to our classroom, we promptly made our way to our seats leaving us with an estimate of ten minutes before class started. "Hey, Ash! I have a question for you?"
"Yeah, what's up? I'm all ears!" I state as I smile to her.
"So... do you think I should take my shot with Tae today? I'm feeling extra confident with myself and I think I could use the support of the wingman." she playfully winked at me and proceeded to explain herself "And I think you would be the perfect wingman! Especially considering the fact that the two of you somehow became friends, which I still happen to be confused about. Like HOW did you become friends with a fine man such as him!!"
"Shhhhh, calm down and bring your voice down... anyways it was just an unexpected friendship you could say... Are you sure you want to confess now?" I stated surprisingly, cause even if my relationship with Tae may be over the idea of my best friend dating my ex is a bit upsetting to my stomach.
"Of course, you should know that I don't tend to fall in love with anyone easily... He seriously makes me the happiest person in the world" she says admirably and I swear I could see a spark in her eyes as she thought of Tae. Seeing that made me realize that I shouldn't let my past get in the way of her future. Even if it may upset me a little, it is a thing of the past and I know how hurt Hannah has been before. Tae would provide Hannah with so much happiness and would be so much better compared to that Voldemort guy. But if I am going to actually support her I need to become open about my past.
