Chapter 10: Celebrate

Charli POV

We walk in with the bags, and see Alex, Chase, Jack, Thomas, James, Dixie, Patty, and Nick all sitting on couches, scrolling on their phones.

"You got all her stuff?" Thomas says, standing up and walking over to Mia.

"We grabbed everything we think she'll need until we can fully figure what's up," Mia responds, hugging Thomas.

"Guys!" Kouvr whisper yells, running up to us after sprinting down the stairs. Alex jumps up from the couch, putting his hands on her shoulder as she stops.

"Bubs what? What happened?"

"Is something wrong with Sophia?" Chase and Jack both stand up, looking like they could spring up the stairs in seconds.

"No, it's something she said. She asked me if she should break up with him. Now."

"She actually said that?" Chase's eyes go wide, staring at Kouvr.

"She asked me, '"Should I break up with Mason right now?'"

"What did you say to her?" Mia says.

"We talked for a minute about why she would. She just, guys, I can just look into her eyes and see how conflicted that poor girl is. I don't think she sees how truly one sided that relationship was. She keeps talking about things from the beginning of them dating or like movie nights they would have. But what she doesn't know is that a movie night once a month is not a date. I just feel so bad because she's trying so hard to wrap her head around it but she can't see it. She knows the situation with Addison's video wasn't okay, or that phone call you boys had with Mason, but it's like her eyes are clouded with the rest of it. I just can see how much pain she's in. I feel so bad, it almost makes me feel guilty for wanting her to break up with him, for hating him so much. Because it's hurting her, she trusts us, but doesn't know what to feel."

"Kouvr, he's horrible to her. We hate him for a reason." Chase says, his fists clenched. We all know he's not mad at her. He just really does hate Mason. I set my bag down and walk over to him, putting my hand on his shoulder, before listening to Kouvr again. He's one of my best friends, and I know his anger will end up on Sophia or Kouvr accidentally if it gets out of hand.

"Chase she doesn't see that."

"Okay, Kouvr, what did you tell her to do? We all know she'll listen to you," Dixie speaks up, standing next to Patrick still by the sofa.

"I explained as nicely as I could everything we've seen as we've all slowly met her and how we all have generally felt about them, about him, and what we've seen through like both of their social media's."

"What did she say?" Mia asks, still standing with Thomas near the front door.

"She didn't get it. So I showed her their tiktok accounts and how much he had her do tiktoks with him and then she realized that that's all he wanted to do. So she asked me what I thought she should do, because she doesn't know. I told her if she doesn't think she can handle calling him, I think she should text him and tell him it's over. I mean, he's toxic y'know. We wrote out a text. I left so she could send it. She was gonna shower too. I just feel bad. I don't want to force her to break up with him I guess," Kouvr just shakes her head at the end, putting her arms around Alex's middle, at which he does the same. All of us just stare off into space.

"So it's over? She doesn't have to deal with him anymore?" James asks, standing up from the couch, going next to Jack who is glaring at a wall, matching Chase.

"I don't know, she'll be down in a bit.
