"Lara what's wrong?" I ask as she picks up the phone
"I know I've ruined your date and everything but I just heard Eli and Stella talking about moving in together,Abi she's leaving us for him"
I could hear the panic in her voice,how it was raised slightly,and how quickly she breathed.She was clearly on the verge of tears.
"Lara,calm down.I'll be home soon,please just don't say anything till then.Once I'm home we can confront her,okay?" I try my best to sound calm and collected,but I was quite scared myself.
I knew the day would come where we'd all go our separate ways,where we'd start living our own lives.I just never thought it would come so soon.Living together has become the new normal,its going to be weird to live in a house without Stella.
"Okay,okay."she sighs,"I need to call my therapist-"
Before I can say anything else the line cuts off,leaving both Payton and I stunned.
"Trouble in paradise?" He asks
"Yeah" I nod,"so what were you saying?" I ask,trying my hardest not to laugh at how awkward the situation is.
"I was saying that I love you,so much" he huffs taking in a deep breath,before carrying on,"I've been trying to put into words how you make me feel but it's almost impossible.Abigail there are no words to describe how much I love you.None at all,everything I do is for you,and the last couple of months where we've reunited has made me realise how much I need you.It's given me motivation again,and desires in life.I don't want to stop here,i want us to go far,get married,have kids.Maybe I sound psycho but Abi you make me feel so complete.Will you be my girlfriend again?"
"Yes,I want that too." I smile reaching forward to hug him,"I always thought I was being unrealistic when I dreamt of having kids and getting married to you but maybe it's not so unreal"
"I'd do anything to make it happen. You're going to be my wife someday.I promise"
"I can't wait" I laugh holding onto him tighter.
After a moment or so of cuddling on the beach or decide to pack up and go back to the cabin to spend our last night in Bali doing something fun.
"By fun do you mean what I'm thinking?" Payton asks when I suggest that to him.
"Probably not.Your only ever thinking of one thing" I scoff laying down on the sofa.
"Yeah and that's you." He laughs,"and music too,but mainly you."
"I want to do something memorable, something I can look back on in 10 years and proudly say I did that"
"Skinny dipping?" He asks
Rolling my eyes I hit him playfully in the chest,"not what I had in mind.I mean,something like-"
"Art?There's a late night art class at the hotel.We can paint a picture there together and hopefully one day we can move in and place it in our house.The time we got back together"
"Perfect"
I get up from the bed to slip on my shoes grabbing my phone and touching up on some makeup before we leave.It's just a short walk to the hall where the art class is taking place,but it doesn't stop us from walking in whilst a lesson is taking place.
"Sorry" we mutter running over to the nearest empty station.
"Newcomers please put on your aprons" the instructor says.She's very pretty.A young girl maybe a bit older than us,she has gorgeous brown skin which glows with not a single blemish in sight,matching her tight curls that rest on her shoulder.Her hair is in a half up half down style with a paintbrush used to secure the bun.
