Unhoneymooners

Stopping my train of thought, the doorbell rings, "I'll get it!" I exclaim, curiosity pondering in my mind as I wonder who's at the door, behind that door....
I open it.
Our eyes meet. Clash. Crash.
I-
Wha-
God she looks beautiful, I slightly look her up and down and everything changed. Her face, more sharper, her eyes, more brighter but something's missing, that light, that shine.
Her hair, hey! I loved her hair like that. Her y/h/c locks flowing softly yet generously by her shoulders, a small touch to her beauty. Wow. I'm pretty sure my eyes lit up immensely.

Your POV...

Your were not expecting him, him to be at the door. Your heart began beating fast, but not in a cute, good, nervous way. In a I-dont-wanna-see-you-ever-again way.
As soon as Mason's mouth opens, Debbie emerges from the background, "Mason I know she's a goregous girl, but try to make it less obvious that you are staring."
You chuckle slightly and smile at Debbie, trying to hide the awkwardness going on.
"Just a bit surprised Mum." Mason mutters under his breath, loud enough for the both of you hear.
Oh so he wants to play that game huh?
"You're not the only one." You breathe, handing the flowers and chocolate to Debbie as Mason makes way for you to enter the house.
It looks the same, all the memories come flushing back, drowning you almost. You never believed the quote which said 'you don't need water to drown.' But now you do. You get it...
You try to gulp it away.

"Come on dinner's this way."

You say your greetings to the family and sit on the dinner table edging as further away from Mason as you possibly could. Funny how, at one point you and Mason would edge your chair right next to each other at family dinners.
After all the effort, you end up sitting straight opposite Mason.

Jasmine begins talking about some family memory as you prod at your food. Masons gaze piercing through you. You shake it away, you weren't going to let him have the satisfaction of destroying your night.
"Oh yeah and then..." you participate in the conversations and laugh with the family as Mason stays quiet. It felt normal, safe, as if nothing happened. You liked the feeling. Just something, one thing wasn't right, and it hadn't been for the past 4 years.

You stand up after finishing your meal, about to clear up. "Don't bother Y/n I'll do it." Debbie insists, but cleaning up after yourself is one of your-unspoken rules.
"It's fine honestly." You smile and take your plate into the kitchen.

Mason POV...

Gosh I hated it, I hated her talking to my family laughing with them. It felt, I dont know, weird. She acted as if nothing, nothing happened between us, but it did and she knew it did. Seeing her be comfortable with my family, made me feel sad, lonely almost. It made me miss her, miss her smile, her insane laugh, her character.
"Oh she's a lovely girl. Why don't you go in the kicthen and talk to her Mason?" Mum asks, more of a command than a question.
"Um." How was I to back out of this one? It was weird enough that we hadn't spoken at all during dinner.
"Ok, I guess." I pick up my mess and carry it into the kitchen.
Y/n is there, in her beautiful red dress, hugging her in all the best places, using a cloth to wipe her wet hands.
I give her a straight smile as she slightly looks at me. She doesn't smile back. "Y/n-" I begin, knowing she can clearly hear me but decides to ignore me and go back to the dining room.

Your POV...

Of course you heard him. How could you not? The silence was quieter than ever. You could hear anything in the heavy but silent air between you guys. As you walk into the dining room, you catch onto a little bit of Jasmine and Debbie's conversation, without the means to eavesdrop.
"..almost distant. Remember how they were as kids?"
You enter the room, not intending to eavesdrop, that's an inhumanly thing to do. Evil almost.
"Oh hey Y/n. Can I speak to you?" Jasmine asks, leading you to the living room as you nod.

Sitting on the couch next to her, she slightly turns her body so it faces you, as you do the same.
"So as you know me and Sam got married, and well we can't go to the honeymoon because something urgent came up..." Jasmine explains as you give a look of and???How am I involved in this? I haven't seen you in 4 years!

"So, I was thinking that I could give you a ticket and one of my close friends a ticket and you could go together."
What? Huh? Why You?
"With a complete stranger?" You asks, unsure of, well everything.
"Yeah, don't worry she's so nice and you will bond instantly!" Jasmine insists, "It's in Ibiza."
You think for a moment, a free plane ticket, to a great place, with someone you can socialise with and become friends. What if you two have the best time? You needed a holiday to tear away all the stress in your life.
"But why me?" You question, slightly tilting your head.
"Because your like a sister to me Y/n and you deserve it!...Plussss you got my favourite chocolate! Even Sam forgets to buy them sometimes but you remembered after what? 2 years?" Nope, Jasmine, not that short, it had been a long time, the longest time.
Jasmine exclaims pulling you in for a hug, you chuckle lightly, her strong daisy aroma floating up your nostrils.
"Thanks, I'll take it."
