Herophine One Shots... 💖

Best Friends👫 (2)

Josephine

Just over ten years ago my family and I moved here to London from Perth when I was a tiny little seven year old hating the fact she was being pulled away from all her friends especially my best friend Mia but I soon changed my mind when I met Hero. Lucky for me I met Hero the minute we got out the car at our new house he was our neighbour and soon became my best friend, from the very first day of meeting we became inseparable doing every little thing together. We have been through so much together over the past ten years but always had each other's backs he's honestly like my right arm we very rarely spent time away from each other if we weren't staying at my house we would be at his. It's always been me and Hero but we also have a great group of friends which consists of mainly guys and only me and our friend Elle being the only girls in our group which we kind of love considering they are like our brothers to us and so protective. For as long as I can remember people always joke around asking me and Hero if there is something more between us than just friendship but honestly he's like my brother that's all. Even growing up our parents would joke around saying they can't wait for our wedding one day earning an eye roll from the pair of us they just didn't get that we are friends, best friends and nothing more nobody did really.

Everything between me and Hero has always been perfect we spent almost all our time together and told each other everything he was even with me the first time I got my period at the young age of ten... when I got up from the couch and there was blood let's just say we both started screaming the house down thinking I was dying until my mom reassured us everything was okay it's still the go to funny story for everyone to this day. Lucky for me and Hero our parents quickly became close just like we did so we all even vacation together which is amazing we are all like one big blended family and if it wasn't for the Tiffin's I don't think moving here all them years ago would have been as happy as they have been. Over the years none of us have really had a boyfriend/girlfriend we just really focussed on each other and the rest of our friends enjoying life but obviously being seventeen Hero decided he was ready to try a relationship. I was so happy for him when he told me about meeting Casey a girl who was the year below us in school he seemed really happy and smitten but it didn't take long for the bitch to get her claws into him and he slowly started to push me away.

It's been a few weeks now and I've gone from seeing my best friend all day every day to never every time I call he makes excuses and the times I've gone over Casey is either there or he's on his way out to meet her. Last week I went over and of course he wasn't home but I stayed to help Martha just because he's being a grade A asshole doesn't mean I can't see everyone else... After going to the bathroom and on my way back down his bedroom door was open and I couldn't help but see that he removed all pictures from our picture wall. Last year we stayed up until like 4am covering his wall from top to bottom in pictures of us from when we were kids until now it was absolutely hilarious and ended up in both of us completely covered in double sided sticky tape until we passed out from exhaustion together on the floor. After weeks of trying with him and getting blown off I finally gave up realising my best friend chose a girl he barley knows over me which is shit considering he's been by his side for as long as I can remember so I focussed more on our friends. We were all out one night having a drink up the fields at the common one night when Hero and Casey turned up and I've honestly never felt more uncomfortable in my life the bitch sat giving me daggers throwing herself all over him until I decided to leave and Elle following behind me comforting me as I cried all the way home trying to work out why he was doing this. How can someone just drop their best friend like that and not give a shit about how their girl is making her feel so shit and uncomfortable around her own friends...

Lucky for me the next day the guys came over to my house making sure I was okay letting me know how it's not just me who she seems to dislike apparently she was just as bad with them when I left. After that day I made sure the guys would let me know if H and his girlfriend would be making an appearance so I could stay clear and let him have some time with our friends I wasn't going to sit and feel uncomfortable if I didn't have to. As hard as this has all been having him just push me away I've been speaking more with my best friend from back home in Perth Mia. Before moving here me and her were inseparable just how me and H were before he pushed me away, our moms went to college together and were best friends so from the moment we were born which was days apart we were stuck together like glue. She knows everything that has been going on and has been absolutely great the time difference sucks but we still manage to talk every day taking it in turns to wait up. A few nights ago we spent about three hours on face time in hysterics as she showed me pictures of the kids I vaguely remember from back home including my crush James Anderson who has filled out very nicely might I add. The more me and Mia spoke and laughed the more I realised I missed home having Hero as my best friend I never really thought about back home much but being away from him has made me realise how homesick I actually am Perth is my home not London and I want to go back I have nothing left here anymore. When I mentioned it to Mia she got overly excited saying I should do it but I'm seventeen for Christ sakes I mean yeah we have family over there but I haven't seen them all in ten years so not really up for that.
