Heartbeat // Michael Clifford (ON HOLD)

Chapter 16

Rebeca's P.O.V.

"Stop freaking out, It's just Michael..." Sophie tried to calm me because I was freaking out a bit for tonight's first date with Michael.

"I know...but I really want to look good for him." I sighed.

"You are completley overreacting." Sophie stated and sat down on my bed. She was spending the afternoon at my place because ahe was bored and curious as always.

I finished fixing my make up and turned around. "How do I look?" I asked her and spun around. I was wearing high waisted denim shorts and a blue tank top. I combed my hair and let them be.

She smiled to me and sighed "Ah..as always - gorgeous. I'd do you."

"You need medical help you horny ass person." I chuckled.

"I'm waiting for it to finish with the meeting." She winked and we laughed.

"Are you excited for Thursday's preformance?" She asked me.

"Um yeah kinda. I'm still nervous.." I smiled to her and she nooded. She was a bit quiet today..too quiet If you ask me.

"Spill it." I said and sat down next to her.

"Spill what?" She asked and looked at me in confusion.

"Something is bothering you, and I'm about to find out what that is." I stated and sit up straight.

"Ugh, you're good at this." She chuckled.

"Don't mention it." I smiled to her and grabbed her hands. "Tell me."

"Okay." She sighed. "Yesterday when I was at Luke's place after school I kinda..um checked his phone." I nooded and she continued. "He was in the bathroom so he didn't know. I was fooling around with the phone and I was taking selfies, when suddenly he got a text form a girl called Barbara. "It was nice seeing you yesterday.Thank you for the flowers. xx". I tried to check what were their previous conversations but he deleted all of them." She qulped.

"So you think..um..he.." I tried to speak but she jumped in.

"I don't know what to think Rebeca...I don't know what that means. What If he's cheatting on me?" She sobbed.

I pulled her in for a hug and tried to comfort her.

"I'm sure there's a logical explanation for that. It might sound naive but you need to talk to him."

"What If he breaks up with me?" She cried. "Am I not good enough for him?"

"NO! Don't you dare to think like that!" I snapped at her. "Talk to him before you make any conclusions."

"I will try but-"

She got cut off by a doorbell.

"Oh shit that must be Michael." She said and wipped away the tears. "Don't let him wait for you!" She smiled to me.

I really didn't want to leave her alone. "Are you okay? I mean I can cancel the date. I'm sure Mikey would unders-"

"Bitch are you crazy!? Hell NO!" She sarcastically screamed at me. "Get your ass down there and have fun! Don't worry about me." She smiled to me.

"Okay. Are you okay walking home by yourself?" I asked her and grabbed my purse.

"Yeah don't worry. I'll exit trough the back door." She smiled. "Thank you for everything." She said and gave me a hug.

"No problem." I smiled back.

"Have a nice time!" Sophie called after me when I headed towards the front door.
