what it means to be a friend ☁︎︎nicky☁︎︎

Hey I listen to this song before reading(from the musical 13!)

Y/n pov

"Dawn if he really cared about me he wouldn't of embarrassed me in front of the entire school!" I cried

~
The quads moved from Boulder to LA in the summer. y/n wanted to help them around. She quickly became friends with dawn and Nicky. Thus having the same humor and common hobbies. She liked soccer and loved to bake. It was a perfect friendship. Sure perfect friendships don't last. Because on the first day of school...Nicky decided that being cool was more important than his great friendship with y/n. Y/N is considered a freak. Just because she doesn't 'fit in'. When the bully, Brett, told Nicky that he shouldn't hang out with y/n, he agreed and left her high and dry to hang out with the cool kids. Leaving her with Dawn, Dicky, and Ricky. Sucks though for y/n....
She had a crush on Nicky
~

"Y/n! Nicky is complicated he just wants a new life. Our old one was crazy and he just wants to be cool." Dawn calmly stated
"Pfft I've been trying to tell him that everyone hates me! But he said that he doesn't care..." I felt tears in my eyes "Then he just full on deserted me." I wiped some tears with my sweater sleeve
"I'm really sorry y/n, I know he didn't mean it." Dawn sat down next to me
"Why are you sticking up for him? I know he's your brother but," I sniffed "he did something really wrong"
"Because he's a good guy y/n/n and because I know you still like him" she smirked at me
"Woah what makes you think that?" I shifted in my seat
"Because you said and I quote 'Dawn I really like him' or maybe I read that one wrong" she crossed her arms impersonating me
I awkwardly laughed "okay fine I do like him but what difference does it make he just...wasn't a true friend" I sighed
dawn looked up at me "y/n? What do you think a friend is?" She put her hand on my shoulder
I looked at her then out to the field
"Well....a friends not a cheap little phony creep or a jerk tryin make a deal.." I looked at the sky "A friend is the person who most of all cares about what you feel." I crossed my arms against my stomach"And nothing is harder then learning a friend isn't..real" I sniffed
"A friend sends notes back and forth all day and doesn't care that you can't spell" i nudged dawn she chuckled "a friend knows you got a crush on you teacher but a friend will never tell" I poked her she swatted me away "a friends outside waiting the minute you both hear the bell" I looked away from her back at the field "and if you heart is always breaking cause the world is just not fair..when you're at your worst your friends the first one there" I turned back to dawn, she had a sorrowful look on her face "giving you something to lean on" I put my head on her shoulder and lifted it back up "and that's what it means to be..a friend" I sighed
"You're right y/n I'll go talk to him" Dawn stood up and walked away.
I looked at her "okay thanks" I then directed my attention back to the field where my eyes spotted Nicky. He didn't even look the same. He got a new haircut and changed the way he dressed. He gave up baking and his cute sense of humor. His dorkiness and his smile.....gone
I felt more tears rush when he spotted me too. He gave a quick nod and turned back to his group. I miss him. I looked around everything seemed to be frozen with just me moving. So I continued
"A friend won't smoke when she in your room or laugh at the poems you write, a friend won't go and start kissing your brother the minute your out of site." I remember all the fun times I had with him. "A fiend is the person you call sixteen times every night!" By now my tears have covered my cheeks "and if your heart is always breaking and you want to run and hide! When your hope is gone your friend is on your side.." I closed my eyes and saw the old Nicky staring at me with arms behind his back and a light blush on his face. "If someone moves in round the corner and you want to show him you care." The memory seemed to fade quickly as my anger rose "so you give him all your last month of vacation! And all of the time you can spare." I was irritated and frustrated "but then on the first day of classes he acts like your not even there!" Tears had not left my face "then he doesn't know..he doesn't know" I huffed "he'll never know what it means" everything went back to reality "to be.... a friend" the last tear ran down my cheek
Everything returned back to normal. I rested my head in my hands. And let out my frustration crying into my sleeves.
Luckily no one even cares to ask me if I'm okay.
