Roo POV
I woke up to a knock on the door. I groaned and scrunched my face as I looked at the bright light of my phone, 3:36. What the hell was someone doing here this late. I wasn't even thinking and I walked to the door in just my bra and boxers, bitch what if it was a rapist? I opened the door and saw Tae.
"Ronnie, I'm sorry did I wake you?" I wiped my eyes
"Taelyn why are you here?" She looked down
"I'm sorry, I'll go I shouldn't have bothered you" I grabbed her wrist as she tried to walk away
"You came here for a reason" she looked at me
"I just, you were the first person I thought of" I examined her, she looked like she had been crying
"Are you okay"
"No... I miss you, I miss you so much Ronnie" I looked at her as she started to tear up "I'm so sorry for everything and I feel so stupid, I love you so much and I swear I'll do better"
"Tae it's fine, don't cry"
"Can I hug you?" I nodded and she hugged me tightly, like she was holding on for dear life
I hugged her back. I missed her more than anything and I could tell she wasn't fucking around. I wiped her tears and she looked up at me.
"I know you said until my birthday but can I stay here? Just for tonight?" I thought for a second
"Okay, for tonight" she rested her head on my chest
"Thank you" I slowly pulled away
"Come on I'm tired"
I went into the room and it was hella dark. I laid on my bed and Tae took off her shoes and hoodie before laying next to me. I laid on my back and she was facing me.
"Goodnight Ronnie"
"Goodnight"
"I love you"
I closed my eyes and felt her nuzzle her head into my chest.
"Taelyn--" I heard her soft snores and sighed "I love you too"

I woke up to see me and Tae tangled together with her head in my neck. I slowly moved my arms from around and she stirred, allowing me to get up.
I put on some sweats and my slides before stretching out my arms. I looked at Tae, sleeping peacefully and I smiled a bit. I covered her with the blanket, put in my earbuds and started to fold my clothes, putting them neatly in the drawers.
Rose was in Key West for the weekend so she wouldn't be back until Monday. Shit, I forgot Zy was coming over today. She gon wanna see Tae, maybe she could stay until after that, I didn't want to tell her we were having problems cause she really be doing the most.
I sat on my knees and started to put the last of the clothes in my bottom drawer.
"Good morning" I jumped at the sudden voice and looked over to see Tae sitting up in bed
"Morning" she stretched."Zy is coming over today"
"Really? Do you mind if I stay until she leaves?" I looked up at her and took out an earbud
"That's fine but just for today, we not gon act like we're on a break" she smiled
"Why not?"
"Don't ask questions" she sighed
"Okay...baby" I sighed
"You don't have to start right now" she moved to sitting on the edge of the bed
"I wanna practice" I finished putting the clothes up and stood
"If you say so" she swung her legs and looked down at them
"What time is she coming?" I looked at my phone
"In 2 hours" she looked up at me
"Can I take a shower? Please?"
"Go ahead" she stood up and kissed my cheek
I held my smile and watched as she walked out the bedroom door.

Tae POV
I tilted my head back into the water and ran my fingers through it. I'm glad I came here, she doesn't seem upset with me and that was a relief. I missed her. But what was i gonna tell her about Savannah? Why would she ever forgive me?
Regret and guilt filled my mind as water ran down my back. It gave me chills thinking about telling that I cheated on her with my best friend. It couldn't end well, I didn't want to lose Roo but keeping it a secret would only make things worse.
"Fuck"
I sighed and took a deep breath. I have to tell her. It wouldn't be fair if I didn't
I got out and wrapped the towel around me. I stood in front of the sink, gargling the mouthwash before spitting it out and looking in the mirror.
I felt disgusting.
I went out of the bathroom and back into the bedroom, Roo wasn't in there. I went in her drawer and grabbed a pair of her boxers, I put them on and the bra I wore last night. The boxers were a bit big but it was cool. I put on my hoodie and the sweats I wore here, folding my shirt and putting it on the bed that she'd made.
"Ronnie?" I looked around outside the door
"In here" I heard from the living room and I walked there, seeing her scrolling through Netflix "did you need something?"
"I... I need to tell you something but after Zy leaves" she scrolled more, not sparing me a glance
"You can tell me now, just to get it over with"
"I don't think--"
"Just tell me Tae" I looked at her
Little do she know...
"But--" she finally looked up at me
"Tae, I bet it's not even that crucial. Just tell me love"
"I... I ch--" she looked into my eyes "I c-an't stop thinking about you" she laughed a bit
I can't do it. I can't do this.
"That's what you were so worried about? What did you think I'd do?"
"I don't know..."
