Building a Home

fights.

you walk for a little while and you don't hear anyone. soon you see a gate.

N | is that?

y/n | KLANKER!

N | no way.

you run up to the gate. you shake it and dead leaves and dirt fall.

y/n | it's the far end. i don't think i've ever been over here.

N | well come on.

you hop the fence and walk a little ways. you are at the wave pool.

N | this place is huge.

y/n | i never really realize we stay by our three buildings basically.

N | you remember that place.

he points to a beaten down pretzel shop.

y/n | yeah. that's where we went on our first forth of july together because payton was grounded and chase was out of town. it was just the two of us.

N | yeah.

he smiles.

y/n | how about there.

you point to an old shop.

N | ah we got a towel there for chase to slide down the wet water slide on the first day of summer.

y/n | great memory.

he punches you in the arm. you keep talking as you approach your main area again.

y/n | that was fun. besides being chased by police.

N | yeah, it really was.

you look at him. you still see that sort of pain in his eyes because he knows your going back to payton. you wave and start walking back to your place. right before you walk in you turn around and he looks at you. you run over for a hug. he hugs you really tight around the waist. you feel a tear fall on your shoulder. you look back at each other. he's still holding your hand.

N | i'll always love you y/n. i hope you never forget that.

y/n | come to me anytime. i'm always here for you.

N | if payton ever hurts you call me over.

y/n | i will.

he smiled at you. in that moment you wanted to kiss him so bad. you squeeze his hand a little tighter.

y/n | i'll see you in the morning nick.

N | right back at you short stack.

you turn around and walk back to your place. payton is still passed out. you sit on the bed and take off your shoes. you hear payton sit up behind you. you turn around.

y/n | hey.

P | where were you?

y/n | i went on a walk with nick.

P | really? did anything happen on this, so said, walk?

y/n | no.. we talked, we got chased by police, then we came back,

P | wtf? did the police follow you.

y/n | we hid and they kept running. then we came back.

P | why were you out in the first place you could have gotten hurt.

y/n | i'm fine payton. i went through FBI schooling.

P | right.

you lay down next to him. he puts his arms around you and lays his head on your shoulder.

P | just don't get too close to nick. i don't trust it.

y/n | why?

P | because of last year. he treated you terribly.

you sit up and look down at him.

y/n | how would you even know?

P | idk. you cheated on him.

y/n | shut the fuck up. you don't even know of half the things nick helped me with. he was always there for me.

he sits up.

P | i'm always here for you too.

y/n | i know but for the year and a half me and nick were together i hung out with him every day. i went to work with him. i cried to him. he cried to me. we were inseparable. we did everything together and since we broke up i've barley talked to him.

P | we could have that together.

y/n | no. it will never be the same.

P | are you breaking up with me?

y/n | no.

P | then what's your problem?

y/n | nothing, okay?!

P | so you're going to come back at late hours of the night and come back pissed off?

you don't say anything.

P | how do i know you didn't fuck nick in the middle of the woods?

y/n | i didn't?!

P | how am i supposed to know that though?

fights are breaking out. how will this all end.
