Symphony

11

We walked the moonlit path hand in hand a comfortable silence between us.

We reached the road my house was on, our pace slowing a little.

"Are you going to be okay?"
Asher asks in almost a mumble

"Of course i will asher they won't do anything" I scoff in reply

He stops us when we reach my porch

"You don't know that annie, drunk people do things without thinking" his voice was laced with concern making me happy knowing he cared,

Someone finally cared

I let go of his hand bringing mine both up and cupping his cheeks.

"Im fine" i pause before continuing "i can stand my ground" I reassure him as confidently as i can,

He bit his lip staring deep into my eyes trying to analyse me and what i was thinking

I wasn't going to let him know i was worried,

Because i was always worried

"Im not going anywhere anytime soon i mean cmon angel you really think you could get rid of me that easily?" I say trying to lighten the mood.

He cracked a small smile chuckling lowly

"I don't want to ever get rid of you"

He replied truthfully

"Everyone has to leave eventually"

I answer back dropping my hands from his cheeks and looking down at my scuffed shoes

"Yes but with the time i have i want to spend it with you" He replies lifting my chin up with his index finger

Butterflies filled my stomach from his gentle touch

"I want to spend every single second with you because Annie I think im f-"

My heart hammered against my chest only to stop hearing the familiar voice behind asher

"Annie?"

I looked over his shoulder to see him standing there

I swallowed hard asher moving besides me and looking between the boy and i

"You" I choke out

"Its me" He says a smile forming on his lips

I take a deep breath biting hard on my lip

"Aren't you gonna give you're ole' friend a hug?" He asks opening his arms wide

"You a hug? A friend? How dare you think you can even call yourself that?"

I clench my fist taking a few steps towards him His brown eyes widening surprised by my anger

"You lost that role when you cheated on me the day of my brothers fucking funeral" i snap
"I was fourteen,not stupid hayden" anger coursed through me

"Annie i-"
I didn't let him continue

"You knew i needed you but you still did it, you still kissed my best fucking friend" my voice shook my hands shaking with anger "you were his best friend he trusted you with me and you broke that fucking trust!" I reached him hitting him straight in the chest

"Then you didn't even show to the god dammed funeral, you do know how fucked up that is right? And to leave me! The next day without an explanation, a note or anything i fucking hate you"

Pure hatred coursed through me as i hit his chest again my fist hurting from the strength of it

I hadn't even realised asher was attempting to get me to stop

"Now get away from my fucking ho-"
I was stopped when The door opened to reveal my mom looking.....formal

"Now julianna thats no way to speak to our guest"
She said a fake smile on her face

Hayden frowned mumbling

"Surprise"
