Chapter eight: I just wanted ice cream

Wendy's Pov

The pool got boring, so why not get ice cream? Plus, it was pretty awkward since the guys kept on looking at us. I grabbed my towel and put on my cardigan, obviously I wasn't going into an ice cream shop in just my swimsuit. I was about to enter the shop until...

"WENDYYY!" I heard a voice from behind me shout. I tensed up and began to walk faster. He eventually caught up and tapped me on the shoulder. I jumped in surprise and turned to face him.

"O-oh, hi R-romeo!" I awkwardly laughed.

He looked like he was tired, like he'd been running. "Hey! Wanna get some ice cream and talk?"

I raised an eyebrow and gave him the 'are you serious?' look. He noticed, "Please... can we talk for a little?"

I saw the girls in the pool playing around. Some were missing, so I assumed the guys wanted to talk. I sighed and gave in, "Fine, can I get ice cream first?"
————————-

We were sitting at a table outside. Suuuperr awkward. I was looking around enjoying the scenery trying to pretend that Romeo wasn't staring at me.

"Hey Wendy... so uhh..." he started, "about what happened in high school, I'm really sorry. I was mad and it was wrong to compare you to your best friend. I'm really sorry if I ruined your guys' friendship..."

I stared at him in shock, then I smiled. I had to forgive him someday, right? Plus, we were both young dumb high schoolers. We didn't really know how to handle this type of stuff.

"It's okay! Chelia is still one of my best friends, so there's no need to worry. Plus, we were both young and stupid back then."

He looked at me in shock, did I say something wrong?

"Is something wrong, Romeo?" I asked.

He snapped back to reality, "O-oh, sorry. I just didn't think you'd forgive me that fast—"

I giggled, "Well then, since we made up tell me how you've been? I'm still mad that the boys broke the girls hearts, but I'm sure they'll forgive each other soon."

'Even though I know that they won't...' I thought.
———————————-

We talked for a few hours, the girls went to the spa and the boys were... I don't even know where they went. Probably to their room.

Romeo started talking about how it is being in a boy band and I talked about how it was like being in a girl group. The conversation went something like this;

—flashback—

"Being in the boys band gets annoying sometimes. They're always talking about how they wished they could have treated the girls better. They talk about really gross things too, but I really don't wanna dig into that," Romeo groaned.

I laughed, "Seriously? The girls are always ranting while eating McDonald's in our living room! It's even worse when they're on their periods! They cry over not getting candy. Half of the songs they write are about the boys. I wrote most of the softer love songs since—"

"Since you always wanted to have your own happily ever after," he interrupted.

I stood there shocked, "You remembered?"

He grinned, "Duh! What kind of ex-best friend would I be if I didn't?"

We both looked at each other for a few seconds, then burst into laughter.

And to think that this happened because I just wanted ice cream...
