"Hey, Skye?" I ask. "This label here says don't try this at home, so I'm coming over to yours." I say into my phone. School had just ended, and like normal BFFs, we couldn't stand not talking to each other for more than an hour.
Skye laughs, and I can imagine her blonde ponytail bobbing as she shakes her head at me.
"Eva, if I got a dollar for every smart thing you said, I'd be broke, honey," she replies, still chuckling. I smile. How did I land up with this coconut I call my best friend? The stupidity of the conversation reminds me of Justin.
"I gotta go, Skye, he's calling me," I say, referring to my very irritating boyfriend, who was currently poking me in the stomach.
"Excuses, excuses," Skye responds, "but I forgive. Have fun." The phone call ends, and I awkwardly blush, staring into the blue, blue eyes of the man I love. How did the unpopular, unsocial nerd like me get so lucky to know a guy like him?
"I love you, Eva Rose," he murmurs, making my heart ache in happiness. Fuck the butterflies - I can feel the whole zoo in my stomach.
"I love you too." And I mean it.
//You can break my heart in two, but when it heals it beats for you. I know it's forward, but it's true. - Back to You ❤❤//

[COMPLETE]
They say weddings are eventful, to say the least.
Anything could happen.
What I didn't expect however, was him.
My mistake.
It's been years since we last spoke- he drives me crazy, in ways no one else has.
Being back home and reunited with old friends, was about to get messy.

"Morning sleeping beauty," He drawled, leaning against the counter mixing his protein shake vigorously.
"Well then you must be the beast and not the prince." I retorted, rummaging through the pantry for some granola I could have with greek yoghurt.
"Yeah," he shrugged.
I put my bowl and ingredients on the table and frowned. Did... he... just agree with me?
"In the gym, in the office... and definitely in bed," he winked.
Oh. There it was.
He's so full of himself. I rolled my eyes, proceeding to make myself breakfast. It's too early for this.
