he felt like he wasn’t really the right person to even try to give advice at this point but he didn’t really agree with her. “i mean – if you’re ready for all that. you never know how he’d react. you should definitely wait until you know for sure what you’re going to do.”

“yeah, you're right.” she replied which was followed by a sigh. “but i also know that i will have to tell him eventually. but i'm afraid i know what his reaction is going to be.” she added, shaking her head. “hell, of course he's going to back away, he'd never help me with raising a kid!” it was as if it hit her all of a sudden, she knew he wasn't going to accept that he was going to be a father.

“you’re a bad influence on me, you know that, right?” nomi raised her brows, then lifting her shoulders up momentarily for a lazy shrug. “it depends on whether or not i find better company. like you wouldn’t leave me for some hot chick, you hypocrite.” the girl tilted her head as she eyed him. she chuckled. “or maybe i’ll just end up here, complaining about my hangover with you.”

“oh no, you've got it all wrong. you're a bad influence on me.” he wiggled his eyebrows playfully before letting out a lazy laugh. “me? leave you? never!” he said dramatically, waving his hands before laughing. “there ain't no hotter chicks than you anyways.” he winked at her while chuckling. “i feel like that's exactly what's going to happen. oh well, that's life.”

Their friendship was probably a bit different from what other people had. They’ve been through a lot and Josh knew how hard life was for Riley sometimes and he always tried to be there for her. As well as she was there for him. Josh’s life wasn’t a fairytale. It was hard sometimes. With his past and his job, he had his days. But Riley always managed to get him going. And now they were standing there, very close to each other and it felt… different. When she said they should forget about what happened the previous night, Josh would be lying if he said he didn’t mind. What if he didn’t want to forget about it? However, he was too scared to speak up and maybe change things, he was afraid that she’d leave and never come back into his life if he confessed his feelings towards her. And it hurt, because with her words, he knew she wasn’t feeling the same. Or at least he thought she wasn’t. But when their eyes locked and he felt her hand touching his, it sent a shiver down his spine, causing him to gaze at her lips quickly, remembering every detail from yesterday’s night. “No— no, you don’t- have to.” He sighed, shaking his head as he took a step back and shrugged. “You can stay.”

“I just—” she paused, shaking her head before she looked up at him and sighed deeply. “What's going on with us? Why are we so— so awkward?” She asked nervously. They were obviously acting differently with each other. They were always so opened up with one another and they've always joked around, everything always felt right and Riley was always herself around Josh. So why? Why did it change all of a sudden? Was it because of the kiss? Maybe that was the reason they were acting this way. “Josh I don't want us to drift apart because of yesterday, but I have a feeling like we can't be the same anymore. Why?” She took a deep breath as she gave her purse a tight squeeze, her eyes were getting a bit teary. She was confused with her own feelings at this point. She liked him, but she also didn't want to lose the friendship they had. She didn't know what to do. Taking a step back, she crossed her arms over her chest and shrugged as her eyes locked on his and her lips pressed together tightly.

After the incident in the bathroom two weeks ago, avery and Elijah haven’t been in contact with one another. There were times she’s thought about calling him, or rocking up at his house asking for forgiveness once again something she’s seem to be doing a whole lot of since she’s came back. But she’s positive he was going to shut her down just like the last time she’s tried making an effort, which he however rejected. She didn’t blame him she knew it was hard and her being back in his life had been probably one of the worst things she could do.

But tonight that was all going to change, after two weeks of avoiding each other was going to end. Since he’s mother whom she’s kept in contact with after the break up had invited her parents, herself as well as her fiancé and Elijah and his new girlfriend over to their place for a ‘welcome back party’ since they had missed her engagement / welcome home party  the night Elijah and her had kissed in the bathroom. Shrugging off the fact that she hadn’t been in the same room as Elijah and his parents since they had broken up, she had accepted her offer and decided to turn up. It was around eight at night when she had knocked on the door, and his parents had both given her one of the warmest hugs she’s had since she’s returned home. She only wished it was Elijah by her side, instead he was somewhere in the living room with his new girlfriend just like she was with her new fiancé. After a small catch up they had invited both her and her fiancé inside, Avery being here before had directed him to the living room where Elijah and his girlfriend was. A moment of awkward silence had come among the couples, until avery had her liquor luck of wine and spoke up, clearing her throat. “Uhh… Elijah, this is my fiancé Nick, Nick this is Elijah” Avery introduces as she stands up, Nicholas by her side with his arms wrapped around her waist, smiling softly towards him. “Ah the famous ex is it? Nice to finally meet you, heard great things” Nicholas speaks up as he puts his hand forward, offering the man a handshake.

After the bathroom incident, Elijah realized how much he had actually missed Avery. And the fact that he could've been with her right now was killing him inside. But on the other hand, he was proud of himself for resisting. He had a girlfriend and he couldn't just do that to her. Elijah and Avery haven't been in contact since that day and Elijah hoped they wouldn't be anymore, because he knew that if he saw her again, the memories would come back and he'd start wanting her even more.

Two weeks went by and Elijah's parents made a decision to invite Avery's family as well as her fiancé. Elijah was totally against their idea and he didn't understand why they would actually want to do such thing, it made no sense to him. Elijah and Avery's relationship was over, it had nothing to do with his parents and although her parents have always had a great relationship with Avery, it still made no sense to Elijah. But his parents insisted and he couldn't do anything but to go with it and somehow survive the night without breaking down in front of everyone. He had invited his girlfriend, because he hoped she'd at least keep him calm through the night and hopefully stop him from embarrassing himself in front of everyone. It was around eight in the evening and Elijah heard the doorbell, which made his heart beat so much faster. He was in the living room with Lily, she knew this was going to be hard for him, that's why she was holding onto him to keep him calm. Elijah's parents seemed so happy to see Avery. He knew how much they loved her, they always have. He stood up as he saw Avery walking in with her fiancé. He didn't like him. From the very start, he seemed like such an asshole to him. He probably wasn't, but even if Avery was with the nicest guy, Elijah still wouldn't like him. He gazed at Avery before looking at the other male and faking a smile. “Nice to meet you.” His voice was cold, it was obvious he was uncomfortable and awkward, plus the comment her fiancé made made Elijah a bit mad. He shook his hand before stepping back, awkward silence kicking in yet again. This was going to be a crazy night.

Although, the line had been longer then what Brett expected - he wasn’t in any rush. His day could be wasted by standing in line for a cup of coffee. It wasn’t like the male had anyone waiting around for him to show up, though a visit to his family in the back of his mind was there. Minutes kept on passing by and the line moved up slowly. With that time passing by, Brett’s eyes had started to scan around the local coffee shop, one he visited often many months ago. He came across few familiar people but decided not to stare and because it was his turn to order. It was like everyone in this town knew one another. He had ordered himself a large mocha and handed the cashier the exact amount of change. From earlier, the coldiness in the air was still around even waiting for his coffee. This was strange, he thought to himself. It felt like someone unexpected was around which could’ve easily been him. He had eventually got his coffee after another good minute wait. Right as he turned around, he saw a darker haired girl now trying to leave the coffee place. He knew that glance of the female somewhere. Slowly started to follow behind but saw the female was with a boyfriend. He knew those clothes and that hair length. As much as Brett wanted to jump to a conclusion that it was Alexa, he couldn’t without seeing a glimpse of her face. Or he could’ve been daring and called out her name. If she had turned around, he would’ve gotten his answer. Struggling to get through the crowded coffee shop, he continued to follow behind her. Speak up, Brett. He thought to himself. Say her name. It’s not like she’s going to throw her coffee in your face. Decisions racing through his mind. This was harder than it looked. But, he needed to clearly for his own sake. So he did. “Alexa?” Brett spoke loudly, brows furrowed raised to the ex-girlfriend of his with the other male. Small town meant a small world. He had wanted to apologize for the longest time. He could’ve called. He could’ve texted her. She was once everything to him and he let it away. Brett at least hoped that Alexa would be civil with him. 

Of course her current boyfriend questioned why they left so soon, they barely got in there. He was asking her tons of questions since Alexa started walking faster, it was obvious something wasn't alright. But Alexa tried to come up with excuses and ignore the fact that she had just seen her ex boyfriend. If she had to be honest, she still had feelings for Brett. You don't really forget your first love, do you? Although Alexa was really happy with her new boyfriend and he was really good to her, something always drew her back to Brett. She did think about him a lot and what he was doing at the moment. Sometimes she even wanted to message him or give him a call, but was too afraid that if he picked up, the memories would come back again and Alexa wouldn't be able to sleep again. And when she saw him today, her heart skipped a beat. That's why she had to leave — she didn't want him to notice her because she knew she'd fall for him all over again. And as she and her boyfriend walked hand in hand, she heard a very familiar voice calling her name which made her stop, her whole body hardened while her hand gave her boyfriend's a tight squeeze. She turned around, holding her breath before sighing lightly. Her boyfriend seemed confused, he didn't know what was going on, but after a moment, he probably realized it was her ex. Alexa did tell her boyfriend about Brett, but she didn't give off any details and why or how their relationship ended. She never really talked about Brett in general, it was hard to mention his name. “— Brett…” She whispered, letting go off her boyfriend's hand as she gave her shoulders a quick shrug and an awkward smile made its way onto the girl's lips. “W-what are you… doing here?” She asked, looking down before her gaze went back up at Brett.

Oliver grinned at him and nodded. “Fine, fine. I’ll ask him,” he said and turned around to look at him briefly, hoping that he actually was into him. “Right, here I go,” he said and took a deep breath before standing up and walking over to his ‘Prince Charming’. God, Ethan was ridiculous.

He sat back down in his seat with a grin and a new number in his phone. “It worked, dude!” He said and waved his phone in the air, hoping he wasn’t too loud and that the boy wasn’t paying too much attention to him right then.

Ethan leaned back as he watched Oliver do his thing, approaching the guy he liked. Ethan was smiling to himself and he even chuckled a few times as he studied both males carefully. He hoped Oliver would have luck and get his prince charming to go to the party with him.

When Oliver came back, Ethan wiggled his eyebrows playfully, waiting to hear hopefully the good news. “Bro!” He raised his eyebrows as a huge smile made its way onto his lips. “That's what I'm talking about! I'm happy for you. Yup, you're totally getting laid.”

Cause darling he’s a NIGHTMARE dressed like a daydream.
