Nova's POV:
2 months later
The last 2 weeks Payton's been kind distant again. Before the 2 weeks we were always hanging out. But lately he's been going out by himself to hang out with other people.
I mean I guess he doesn't have to hang out with me all the time. But he could of at least invited me once to go with him.
Maybe not, I feel like I'm sounding to needy.
I was currently upstairs finishing up my homework and talking to Harper.
"I wish I could come see you" Harper pouted from the other side of the screen. "Yeah.." I sighed. Then the front door open with people talking.
"Who's that?" Harper asked. "I dunno" I said as I shrugged my shoulders.
"Oh well I gotta go, my family's going out for dinner bye" Harper said. "Bye" I waved as I ended FaceTime.
I finished up my school and decided to go get something to eat. I got up from my desk and headed downstairs.
I passed the living room to see two people on the couch watching what looked like a scary ass movie on the TV.
It was Payton and some girl. The girl had silver like hair and it honestly looked really good. But she was also leaning her head on Payton's shoulder and Payton had his arm around her.
Saying I was jealous was an understatement. I was way past jealous. I mean they're just friends though, right?
I just shook it off and continued looking for some food. They honestly didn't have anything I wanted to so I just grabbed a glass of water.
I was about to about to head upstairs when a jump scare from the movie happened and I got startled and dropped my glass of water, which ended in the cup shattering and water spilling anywhere.
Both Payton and the girl looked back. Let me just tell you the girl literally looked like someone sent from heaven, she was beautiful.
I would literally kill to look like her. She looked like a actual model.
"Are you okay?!" Payton asked getting up from the couch and stopping me from staring.
"Shit" I muttered under my breath looking at the mess on the floor.
"Here let me help" Payton said making his way around the couch.
"No I got it, where's the broom?" I said looking around.
"I can clean it up" Payton said taking the broom and starting to sweep up the glass.
"Here just give it to me, I dropped it, I'll clean it up" I said reaching my hand out for the broom.
"You can soak up the water, I'll do the glass" he insisted.
"I'll just pick it up with my hands" I argued getting on the ground and starting to pick up pieces of glass.
"Stop, you'll cut yourself" he said. "I'll be fine, I'll be careful" I said as I continued to pick up glass shards.
He sighed and continued.
"I'll get a cloth" the girl from the couch said getting up.
