Courtney's POV:
Ever since the day that Shayne said that he and Erica were finally official, he stopped hanging out with us that much. He was always busy, he said that Erica, wanted loads of 'babe time'.
"Hey guys, I have someone special with me today, " Shayne said. It was his girlfriend, Erica.
"Hey guys, " she said
"Hey Erica, " we said in unison
"So this is Ian, Damien, Olivia, Keith, Noah, and Courtney," Shayne said. She shakes our hands.
"It's great to finally meet you, we have heard so much about you, " I said
"Oh, really?" She said
"Yup, but don't worry, they are all good stuff about you, nothing
embarrassing, " I said
She smiled
"You're so pretty," Olivia said to Erica
"Aww, thank you." She said
"Courtney, we need you at the writer's office right now, " Monica called out.
Thank heavens, I really can't take it, being in the same room with her. It's okay Courtney, you got one more nerve to handle it. I went to the writer's room.
Shayne's POV:
I think Erica and the gang will get along perfectly. They are talking to her now, asking her questions, as if it was a first date. She is starting to have a girl talk with Olivia. It got me thinking, is she going to be like that with Courtney? And why am I worried? It's not like it's a big deal, right? Courtney comes back from the writer's office.
"Where have you been all my life?" Damien said to Courtney.
Courtney blushed and chuckled. I was turning red, I'm not blushing, I'm getting mad. You already moved on Shayne. MOVED ON. You can't be mad, she's not your girlfriend. You can't be possessive with someone you don't even own.
"Very funny, Damien!" She said
"Hey Courtney!" Erica said
"Oh, hey Erica," Courtney said
"How's the gang so far?" Courtney asked
"You guys are really great," Erica replied
"Wow, really?" Courtney asked
"Yeah," Erica replied
"By the way, what were you doing in the writer's office?" Damien asked
"I needed to change some scripts that I wrote last week," Courtney replied
"Oh," Damien said
"Babe, I'm sorry, I need to go. I have a photoshoot in an hour," She says to me
"It's okay, go now," I said
She gives me a peck in the lips.
"Love you," I said
"Love you too," She replied
She ran outside the building.
"So cute!" Olivia said
"So cringey!" Courtney said
"I'm just kidding!" She said right away.
"I thought you're starting to get bitter," I said
"Heck no, bro," She said
"Courtney Miller and the word bitter don't belong in the same sentence," I said
"I know, right," She said
"Hey, do you guys want to grab lunch?" Noah asked
"No, I'm good," Courtney said
"Yeah me too," I said
"I'm going," Olivia said
"Me too," Keith said
"I'm hungry too," Damien said
"We'll be back!" They shouted before slamming the door behind them.

Courtney's POV:
"So, you stopped dreaming about me?" Shayne asked
"Yup, how about you?"
"Yeah,"
"That's great," I said. Inside my head, I wished that he still does and that I still do. I could think about him when I lay awake, but when I drift off to sleep, I don't dream about him, not anymore.
"We never needed that dream doctor," He said
"But that getaway was fun though," I said
"T-H-O though?" He asked jokingly
"Yup, T-H-O though,"
He chuckled.
"I just realized that I haven't hung out with you in a while," he said
"Wow, you finally realized!" I said while clapping my hands.
"It's Erica, she said she wants some quality time," He said
"We understand," I said
"Well, how's the love life by the way?" I asked
"It's actually really great. How about you, did you find someone?" He replied
"Nope, still hanging onto hope for this guy, even though the hope is already gone..." I said
"I know that you don't want to tell me who he is, so I won't push you. But why did you say that hope is already gone?"
He asked
"He has a girlfriend, and they're happy together," I said as I try not to cry but my tears started falling.
"Aww, Courtney," He said as he pulled me in for a hug.
"You'll get over him someday," He said
"Thanks, Shayne," I said
What he doesn't know is that he is that guy. He lets me go. Tell me how can I move on from you if you are like that?
"You deserve better," he mutters under his breath, he thinks that I couldn't hear it, so I pretended that I didn't.
"I should have told him when I had my chances," I said as I wipe my tears away
"It's not your fault, Court. It's not your fault that he didn't saw your worth," He said
You are that person Shayne, you're saying that to yourself!
I just smiled, inside my head, I was thinking
"What an idiot! If he only knew, he wouldn't say that..."
But sad to say, he's not gonna know. I know that I can't hide forever, but I'm gonna keep my mouth shut for as long as I can.
