Who's the other girl

7

I had fallen asleep on a chair on the terrace and felt arms lift me.

The scent of Vanilla filled my nose and I knew it wasn't Ashley.

I buried my face into Lauren's neck, finding her embrace quite comforting.

She laid me down on the bed and I whined.

She quickly climbed in next to me.

"I'm here, I'm here." She spoke, looking down at me as I curled up next to her.

I cuddled into her side, falling into a well needed sleep.

I woke up at 6am and couldn't get back to sleep.

There were so many thoughts running through my mind.

I got up and got ready for the day, although I did not want to do anything.

When I unlocked my phone, many messages from Brad popped up.

A sigh left my lips. You know what? Fuck him.

I ordered room service and put a bottle of vodka and some cola on the order.

The girls were still passed out as I made myself a drink and sat at the terrace.

"Meant nothing. A toy, just a body to fuck. Arm candy. A whore." I repeated the many things he's said that were directed to me.

"Never enough. Try hard. Worthless. Nothing." Those words rang inside my head as I sipped my drink which was more vodka than coke.

"None of that is true." I heard my sister's voice speak from the door.

I sighed. "That's hard to believe right now." She walked onto the terrace with me and set a notebook in front of me.

"What's this?" I asked, looking at the taller girl.

"I want you to write your feelings out. I know you're feeling so many different things right now and I want you to let it out." I pushed the notebook away.

"Ash, writing is your thing." I spoke, making me smile.

"It can be our thing. I saw the videos of you singing, Y/N. You're really good." I smiled at that and hugged her.

"Thanks, sis." She smiled and she hugged me back.

"Come on, play me a song." She pushes me into the hotel and I grabbed my guitar.

Lauren was sat up on the bed, on her phone.

"An original or a cover?" I asked, sparking Lauren's attention.

"Wait, you write music?!" Ash exclaimed, making me chuckle.

"I do. I just keep them to myself, I didn't want to steal your thing." I smiled, watching as she excitedly grabbed my old notebook from me.

I watched as she skimmed through the series of finished and unfinished songs.

I texted an old friend of mine, Willy.

Me: hey, are you gonna be back in NJ any time soon?

I texted the guy, hoping to get a quick fix.

Will: yeah, I'm in for a few weeks. I leave on the 27th.

Me: cool, I'll see ya at our spot Thursday at 7.

Will: cool. See ya, then.

"Y/N. Hey, are you listening?" Lauren waved her hand in my face.

"Yeah, sorry. What's up?" I asked, my attention now on the green eyed girl.

"I said that you're actually really good. Can you play Good In Goodbye?" Lauren asked, making me nod and tune my guitar.
