Narrator's pov
-
"Did she really?"
"Yes"
"Holy shit"
"I know" Ember groaned, adjusting her neck scarf around her shoulder
"What do you think that means?" Fallon asked
"I... Wish I knew"
"Well I think it means something is going right. I don't know what you're doing but keep it up and you might have yourself a girlfriend by the end of the month"
"Whoever said I wanted a girlfriend?" Ember asked
"Oh... You don't?" the boy questioned
"I.... Don't know"
"Why's that?"
"I haven't had anyone ever since... Her"
"Oh-"
"Yeah" Ember mumbled uncomfortably
It had been such a long time since she's even thought about the girl of her past. A girl that showed her what love truly wasn't about
"It's been five years Ember"
"So!?"
"So, you're allowed to let yourself be happy you know"
"Am I?"
"Yes, what the hell Ember"
"Relationships are too complex-"
"And what the hell do you think you're trying to do with Gabrielle?" the boy scoffed
"I.... I don't know"
"You've got to be kidding me"
"What?"
"You flirt with her all the time"
"So? It's just flirting"
"But what are you trying to achieve?" the boy asked, folding his arms across his chest
Ember rolled her eyes as she leaned down over her bed, slipping her feet into her shoes
"I just know that I don't want to hurt her"
"You're going to hurt her if you don't accept that you can allow yourself to open up to possiblities-"
By this point, Ember had honestly found herself annoyed at everything starting to come out the boy's mouth. It wasn't like she didn't know it all already
She just chose to ignore it
Something she needed to change but was too stubborn to listen to her own self, even worse when someone else was telling her to change herself
"That sounds like a problem for another day" The girl said, standing from her bed
As early as it was in the morning, she needed to start her day fresh and fast
She had noticed since their last encounter that Gabrielle may be living around the same area as hers, so she took it upon herself to wake as early as possible so she wouldn't miss the girl's ride
Only this time, she was going to join her
Ember flattened her fingers against her white blouse, ironing out any bends in her shirt before glancing at her wrist for the time
"I see the way you look at her Ember" Fallon mumbled, leaning his back against the door
It seemed to leave the girl a bit silent, her eyes still hooked onto her watch while the boy talked
