In Love With My Best Friend

CHAPTER TWO: SADNESS

It had been two days since the incident with Mia and I had stayed in my room the whole time. My mom came up three or four times a day to give me food but that was the only human interaction I had.

I know you might think I'm over reacting but Saint was literally the only friend I had and I had tried to apologize but he didn't want to talk to me and I didn't go out of my room Incase I ran into Mia and she pulled another one of her little stunts and it damaged me and Saints relationship more than it already was.

As I was sitting in my bed eating carrot sticks writing everything down in my journal that had happened I told myself.

"Julia it's time to stop your pity party and actually do something for once!" I don't know where it came from but I suddenly got the courage to try to apologize to Saint again.

I got of my bed quickly re-did my messy bun and put deodorant on. Then I stormed (well that's a bit of an exaggeration) I walked down the hall to Saint's room. I took a deep breath as I knocked on the door.

"Who is it" Saint questioned softly
"Uh me" I said
"Oh" Saint's soft voice turned into a grumble
"May I please come in?" I asked
I heard a sigh
"Sure"
"Hi" I nervously chirped
"Hey" he sighed
"look I'm really sorry about what happened but I want you to know that I did not lay a hand on Mia. In fact it was quite the opposite but I was in the wrong for antagonizing her with her pancake"
"It's okay I'm sorry for yelling at you. I really did miss you Jules"

I walked over to the chair he was sitting and and we hugged for a good 15 seconds before I pulled away and went and sat on his bed.

"So anything to catch me up on?"
"Well me and Mia broke up" he said sadly
"WHAT?! That's grea- I mean *clears throat* sad."
"You lie about as good as you do chores" he replied
"No I mean it's really sad that you loved her. You deserve better. And you will find better!" I gave him a reassuring smile
"Thanks" he muttered back as I walked out of his room shutting the door on my way out.

I did a quite "yesssss" after I shut the door. Maybe I did have a chance with him after all.

SAINT'S POV:

"No I mean it's really sad that you loved her. You deserve better. And you will find better!"
She said giving me a smile

"Thanks" I muttered out of my element. She didn't seem to notice though.

As soon as she shut the door Mia came bouncing out of my closet.

"You did it!" She squealed
"Shhh" I snapped back
"I hate having to lie to her..."
"Well you are going to have to."

She grabbed my chin angling my face towards hers so I had to look at her in the eye "For my protection" she whimpered. My heart dropped when I heard her sad voice "What did she even do to you?" I asked.

Julia has been like my little sister and I couldn't imagine her hurting someone. Maybe I was blind because she was like family to me

Mia started to tear up "It's to painful... the memories" she chocked out.

"Don't worry" I grabbed her face between my hands "I'll protect you" I gently kissed her

Who's side are you on Julia's or Mia's? Julia started it but Mia has taken it too far in my opinion. Let me know your opinion in the comments!
