Hadley's POV
October 27th, 2018
2:47am

after i had some water and well...threw up, i didn't feel drunk anymore. it has been like an hour and i didn't have that much.

before he started talking i sat up to take off the swat vest i had on.

"can you get me a sweatshirt from my closet?" i asked quietly.

he didn't respond but he walked over to my closet, grabbed a grey champion hoodie and handed it to me. then he just went back to where he was standing and i laid back down on my side.

"so why are you being nice to me all of a sudden?" i repeated.

"i've been thinking and well..." he rubbed the back of his neck, worried about what he say next. in the 10 years i've 'known' Ethan, i have never seen him nervous.

"can you please just sit or lay down please? you are making me uncomfortable." i blurted out. his eyes widened.

"okay..." he said cautiously as i scooted back to the other side of my bed.

he sat down then took his black converse's. after he only had his socks on, he swung his feet up and his upper back was on the pillow and his head was resting against the back board. i was still laying on my side, looking up at him.

"i'm so fucking sorry Hadley." he said after sighing.

after looking down at his hands he started to speak again..."when we were at the party, thinking because it was so boring, and when i looked at you across the room, i have never felt so guilty and mad at myself. it was all for hurting you."

"i suck at talking about my feelings and all that. and i do understand if you don't forgive me since i've literally been an asshole since 4th grade but just know i'd love to start over." finally he turned his head to look down at me while speaking the last sentence. i saw the remorse in his eyes.

"i forgive you Ethan." i whispered. then took a risk; and laid my head on his chest, and threw my arm over him to give him a hug.

i don't see the point of holding grudges, just forgive them.

"i'm so sorry Haddie" he mumbled then wrapped his arms around me.

we just laid there in silence not moving.

i was exhausted so slowly i ended up drifting asleep.

*ring ring ring*

my eyes shot open to the sound of my phone ringing.

Grayson.

i looked down to see Haddie asleep on my chest still so gently i grabbed my phone from my pocket. i hit answer to his facetime without thinking.

"why are you in Hadley's room?" he asked me immediately with his eyes squinted. i looked in my camera and there's a poloriod picture of him and her above the bed along with a few others. and he's so protective of her that's it's crazy.
