KISSING BOOTH 2

Brothers

Lee's POV

I felt like a complete dick and I knew I was one. As I watched Elle leave me in her room, I sat on her bed and just closed my eyes. I felt horrible

I don't know who you are anymore Lee. I want my best friend back, the real Kaylee Flynn

My phone beeped and I picked it up to check the message but I stopped at the  sight of my screensaver. It was a picture of Rachael smiling cheekily at me at the fair. I shook my head and clicked on the message app

Elly- Meet me at the ice cream shop

I knew the ice cream she was talking about. I quickly grabbed my keys and raced down the stairs and into the car.

I parked the car and walked into the shop immediately sighting Elle beside the window. I walked towards her and sat across from her.

"Hey" I gave her a weak smile

"Hi" she whispered and faced me. Her eyes were puffy and evidence of her crying. She looked really sad "Did you sleep at all?"

"No I was up all night in your room"

She looked suprised "Oh. I was with Noah"

I nodded already knowing "Yeah I know. How is he?"

"He's leaving tomorrow" she said biting her lip

I sighed and shook my head "I fucked up Elle. My idiocy got the best of me. I'm so sorry"

"Well you're right about you being an idiot" she chuckled lightly. I smiled back at her. She sighed and looked out of the window again "It's okay Lee. This was bound to happen anyway"

"He never cheated Elle. He told me everything and I'm pretty sure she drugged him"

Elle chuckled again "Yeah she's a bitch. I knew Noah would never do that, it just hurt seeing him with someone else I guess" she said and shrugged

I grabbed her hands that were on the table when I saw they were shaking "Elle" I squeezed her hands gently

Although she wasn't crying yet she was sniffling "I just- I guess I was sad that my worst nightmare came through. Him going to college and forgetting about me"

I quickly rushed to her side and she buried her face in my chest crying

"We didn't have enough time Lee. I didn't get to really be with him and now it's over" she sat up and grabbed the tissues placed on the table

"I looked at my best friend crying over my brother and I felt like throwing myself off a cliff. I was responsible for all of this, if I never pulled that stunt they would have worked things out and everything would be okay

"I never should have kissed him again after the booth thing. If I didn't this wouldn't be happening and you guys won't be fighting again" she sighed before dropping the tissue

"It's not your fault Elle"

"Yeah but yet again I'm the cause of another fight between you two"

I sighed "Why don't you go home and get some sleep? You'll feel better"

Elle nodded and stood up, we walked together to the door and I moved to hug her but she moved back

Ouch

"I'm not mad at you Lee honest but I need some time to get that moment out of my head"

I nodded and she smiled at me before walking to Noah's motorcycle which I didn't notice before. She hopped on and drove away and I got into the car and drove home hoping to see my brother
