Valeria

"I seriously can't believe you didn't tell me! I'm your best friend, you asshole!" I say to Nick. He had just FaceTimed me and basically told me that him and Madison called it off a while back. "Well I couldn't exactly tell you when you weren't talking to me." He tries to reason.

"First of all, we've been back on good terms for like almost two months. And in those two months you've failed to mention that you've been single for about, oh I don't know, almost 5 months?! What went wrong." I ask him. "Let's just say, I tried, hard to be there for her, and understand her and what she was going through. But she kept doing everything in her power to push me away and I didn't want to give up on us, Valeria. I really didn't but she gave me and ultimatum." He says. "What was it?"

"She told me to just go and leave her, without ever reconnecting with her again, or she was going to do it herself, and block me from her life completely." He tells me. "Oh she's such a Pisces..." I automatically say, making him laugh.

"What does that mean?" He laughs out.

"She's a bit...extra sensitive with things and her feelings. She probably doesn't mean for it to come off that way but it does. She's also probably very defensive huh?" I tell him. "Yeah she is." "Mhmm, yup she's a Pisces." I simply state, making him laugh more. "But this is the thing. Is it bad that I'm not upset over it? Like don't get me wrong I care a lot about Madison, but I feel like over the past couple of months.... I've definitely strayed away from her... possibly even found interest in someone else..." He states drifting off.

"Oh My Goddd!!! Whoo." I say excitedly.

"She's a friends of ours. Someone I never thought I'd like because of our friendship status but... In the past month I've realized my feelings for her." "Fûck, it better not be me, I have enough boy drama in my life that can suffice a generation of baby teens." I whine, holding my head. "No! No, it's not you. Don't get me wrong, I love you, but not in that way. That's gross." He says defensively.

"Im gross now?"

"No! You're practically my sister though, so that's gross." He reassures.

"Okay, fine. But who have you been around for the past mon- Holy shit! You like Willow?!?" I say excitedly through the phone. When he doesn't say anything, I automatically know it's her. He has a slight smile on his face when I mentioned her and it made me warm inside. "Aw my bestie likes my other bestieee! I have to set y'all up! You both would be so cute!"

"No! Don't do that yet... I want to get to know her more before you start telling her I like her." He tells me.

"This is so exciting! Willow has been boy crazy for a while, and honestly I think you'd be perfect for her. Ah this is crazy!!" I say. "You need to do me a favor and not go around telling people that I like her. I'm still figuring out how I feel about her." He says seriously.

"My lips, are sealed." And with that, I pretend like I'm zipping my lips shut, watching as he laughs at me over the phone. "Okay, forget about me now, what's up with you and Vinnie. Last time I talked to him he was practically planning his future with you." Nick questions. "Haha, very funny. And nothing much. We are taking things slow, and I'm not really looking for a relationship right now." I say. Was I lying?...possibly, but who cares.

"You're such a liar. You love him."

"Love is a strong word." I simply reply.

"Yeah and you love Vinnie. You've loved him since you were in a relationship with Mason." He pushes. "That's not true. I was committed to Mason and Mason only. I would've never cheated." I say defensively.

"I know you would've never cheated, but you loved Vinnie because he gave you the right attention Mason could never give you. Come on, do you know how many times you'd talk about Vinnie and practically praise him for doing the bare minimum?" Nick ask me. His face had an "are you dumb" look on it and it confused me. I don't think I ever.... talked that much about Vinnie to him.... okay maybe I did. Fuck I knew talking about boys with Nick was wrong.

"Well I was being nice... Oh shut up and leave me alone." I mumble.

"Fine I will, but when are you coming back? It's getting lonely here." He ask.

"Mmm, are you sure you're not asking me because of a certain best friend of mine." I jokingly ask. "Partially." He smiles, making me flip him off. "Well I'm supposed to come back next month. Supposed to go apartment shopping with my mom and yes Willow is coming along with."

"Oh so you're thinking about living here? Finally."

"Not permanently. I mean like it's just so I don't have to pay for an Airbnb every time I come here. I waste money doing that when I can have my own apartment here with Willow, you know?" It was annoying going back and forth, wasting my money and time when I could simply have my own house.

"That's way smarter, it took you long enough to come up with that idea." He says mockingly. "Fuck off. Oh and don't tell Vinnie I'm coming there next month, I want it to be a surprise." I smile.

"Aww, a little surprise for your boyfrienddd."

"No, you dickhead."

"Oh be quiet you know I won't tell him." He smiles. "I can't be so sure nowadays, bro code for you is more valuable than your best friend." I say, bringing up the whole past situation with Vinnie, causing Nick to be shocked and for me to laugh. "Your faceee!" I laugh.

"Not funny."

"Oh shut up."
