Payton's POV
'Yo,wassup'.I type into the phone
"No,don't put that.She isn't your guy friend.Write something more...nice" Millie says looking over my shoulder as I type a message to Abi.
"Dude,say this.." Jackson starts,clearing his throat before carrying on,"Hey Abi,How have you been?"
"Yes that's good,then she'll say" millie clears her throat,before saying in a high pitched voice,"I've been great Payton,what about you?"
"Then you answer and then say this,here's the deal,I've been asked out on a date,But I don't feel like I can do it,at least not without your blessing-"
"So I was hoping that you'd have moved on by now,so that I don't feel bad going on this date" Millie says finishing off Jackson's sentence.
"No,I'm not saying that I'm gonna sound like an idiot" I huff throwing down the phone."This is a stupid idea anyways,why am I even doing this?"
"Because you love her,and want that last brit of hope that she still loves you to be confirmed so you can back out of the date tomorrow" Millie says
Surprisingly,she was actually correct.But I'm not giving her the satisfaction of knowing she's correct.
"Payton just take the phone and message her"Millie says in a frustrated tone.
Abigail's POV
5 new messages?From..Payton?
"Abi!" I hear Emmy shout as she walks into the entrance with Aira."Oh my gosh,you scared us.Were you here the whole time?" She asks
"Uh..I was here.Aria,hey" I smile,before looking down at the phone in shock.
"We're all heading out for pizza.Ella's treat,do you wanna come?" Emmy asks
"Yeah,sure" I answer shoving my phone in my pocket and joining the girls outside."When did you show up?" I ask Aria
"Just now,I had to send some emails and sign a couple contracts.But don't worry,I read them over twice.You won't see me making the same mistakes as you" she giggles
Rolling my eyes I walk over to Ella's seven seater car
Having grown up in a large family she's always needed a big car.Which came in handy when she met the girls and I.
"So girls,I have some news" Ella says as we get into her car.Lara sits in the front,whilst Emmy Stella and I sit in the back.
"Do spill" Stella says excitedly
"So there's a guy" she says excitedly
"Oh my gosh tell us about him!" Lara squeals
They continue to talk about Ella's guy as we drive to the restaurant,but I end up zoning out my mind completely focused on the five messages from Payton.
It's almost as if he read my mind,especially since I was thinking of texting him.But maybe it's a sign,what if he wants be back.What if he wants to try again,maybe he misses me just as much as I miss him.
Pulling out my phone I finally decide to open the messages that he sent to me.
Payton💔
Hey Abi,How are you?
How's the modeling career going?
Is this weird?
I think this is weird
I miss you..
A small smile creeps it's way onto my face,even when we've been apart for 6 months he still makes my heart ache.In a good way of course.So,after smiling like an idiot for a good five minutes I finally decide to reply.
Hi Payton,you're not weird for texting.I was thinking about doing it myself🙈.The modeling is going great though,what about you,how's your music.I miss you too..
Clicking send I let out a breath of relief instantly locking my phone and sitting back for the rest it the ride.
I continue messaging Payton,back and forth.Barely stopping to talk to the girls as we sit in the booth and order our pizza.
Payton💔
My music is going great.I've got so many songs that I want to release.I wish you were here to help me with them though.
I miss being with you when you made music,it was so fun.I'm I'm incredibly proud of you Payton.
So maybe you can come to NC and help me
Maybe I will ;)
My mind was stuck in it's own world.Zoned out,focusing on the blank screen on my phone,waiting until it finally light up with a notification.Sending that rush of adrenaline through my veins and straight to my heart,making it explode.
"Abi,what's with you.All you've been doing is staring at your phone" Ella says
"It's her hot boyfriend Jace." Aria laughs
"Jace-" Emmy shouts in shock
"Jace is not my boyfriend.It's just an old friend from..North Carolina.I met her when I went with-"
"The ex we shall never mention" Lara says
The waitress comes with our large pizza.We each take a couple of slices and tuck into the food.And I mentally pray that they don't mention the text messages again.
I know I shouldn't lie to them,but if they knew it was Payton they'd force me to block his number and find another guy.But I don't want another guy.I want him,and it's clear that he wants me back..right?
It takes a while for Payton to reply to my previous message.My mind begins to panic,what if he's bored of me?Pushing back all the negative thoughts I decide to focus on what's happening in front of me,allowing myself to enjoy the rest of the evening.
When we finally finish,Ella drives us back to the office,leaving us so that she can drive Aria home. Emmy,Stella,Lara and I get into our car and drive back to our apartment.
Only when I enter the apartment do I receive a message from Payton.
So I've got a date tomorrow.I'm kind of nervous since it's the first one since..you know
And just like that my heart broke into a million pieces.
A/n:The next update will be around this time tomorrow since I have work,if I manage to fit one in before then maybe I will.But I hope you enjoyed,I might update probation aswell who knows.
