Not sure if you guys will like this chapter or not 🫢
Y/N's POV:
I sighed as I looked down at my phone for the hundredth time today. Still nothing.
She still hadn't responded to any of my messages or reached out to me
It's not like I sent her a bunch. Just a goodnight and good morning from last night and this morning
She usually at least gives them a like but nothing at all
She posted on her story, I know she's on her phone. She's choosing to ignore me
It was whatever. She wasn't my girlfriend I didn't need to stress over this
Even though I low key did
I searched her name on twitter and saw her fans spreading some paparazzi pics taken of her having dinner with some guy that I've seen her with one time before
@/cabeyo_c: THIS WAS THEM LAST NIGHT AND THIS MORNING THEYRE WEARING THE SAME CLOTHES 🤭🤭
@/CabellosLove: @/cabeyo_c I KNOW A WALK OF SHAME WHEN I SEE IT 👀👀
I exited the app and closed my phone. I could not let something like this get to me. I didn't want to know anything about him or who he was. It would just drive me insane
I was going to hang out with my friends today anyways. I needed to forget her just for today at least
—
My friends and I decided to go to a baseball game today. I usually enjoyed games and got into it. My friends and I would get our drinks and enjoy the atmosphere of being around sports fans and listening to the organ player play or do the occasional wave. Eat hot dogs, nachos, or get ice cream
But I was not so into today. I've always been a quiet person but when it came to games I would could be a little loud. Yelling when a player did an error or cheering when they did a home run but today I was silent just staring out at the green field
"Y/n what's wrong?" Maria asked me as she offered me some of her popcorn
I kindly rejected and and shook my head "nothing"
"They are winning 5-1 and you look like we're the ones losing" she said
"I'm just daydreaming" I said smiling at her
"About a certain pop star?" She asked teasing me
"No not at all" I said and I could tell she didn't believe me
"Well if you need to talk you know I'm here" she said and I smiled and thanked her
I could see Stacy listening and watching us from the corner of her eye as she was sitting next to Maria
I just sighed and tried to pay attention to the game.
—
An hour passed and I still was too quiet, while my friends were fired up screaming profanities at the players and the game
Maria had gotten up to go get another drink so the seat next to me was free
"Hey" Stacy called me and I looked over to her
"Come with me" she said grabbing my hand and I shook my head
"Im okay here-"
"Y/n I'm not taking no for an answer" she said smiling at me and I sighed but gave in and got up to follow her
We made our way up the stairs out of the stands to the concessions area
"Where are we going?" I asked confused
"Nowhere we're just taking a walk around the stadium" she said
"Wow you tricked me into exercising" I said and she laughed
"You looked out of it so I thought maybe you could clear your mind" she said
"Yea I'm just uh over thinking like I usually do" I said
"You always hurt your head when you do" she said giggling to ease the tension "do you want to talk about it?"
"It's nothing" I mentioned
"Okay well I won't ask about your relationship problems. But how are things at home?" She asked me as we walked past crowds of fans
"Annoying as usual" I said lightly laughing
"Trouble with your parents?" She asked and I nodded
"Kind of, just money problems as usual. My step dad is a bitch so I'm always left to fix it" I said
"You carry your family on your back" she said laughing making me laugh as well "I would offer to help but I know your stubborn ass would never take it" she said making me laugh
I did vent to Kevin and Maria mainly but there were nights when I stayed with Stacy where I would open up to her
She knew the real me the way Maria and Kevin did. She could tell when I lied, when I was sad, or when something was bothering me
"You know I do miss your mom though" she said
"Yea? she asks for you too sometimes" I said
Our bodies bumped into each other occasionally as we walked side by side
"Maybe I'll have to send her some pastries from my job. Like the muffins she loves" she said
"I'm sure she would love that" I said smiling
"By the way I haven't seen you in a while. You usually get your coffee there like every other morning" she said
"I know I'm sorry I've been forgetting" I said lying to her
She just gave me an unfazed glare
"You!! Forgetting coffee?? No way" she said making us laugh
"Okay well if you must know I have tried a few new spots" I replied and she gasped
"I can't believe you're cheating on us" she said pretending to be hurt
"I'm sorry!! In all fairness they don't compare to your place" I said
"But what do they have that we don't?" She asked
"These cookies that are fucking amazing" I said smiling
"Ahh you and your sweet tooth" she said "you're going to have to take me some day"
I don't know if Camila would like that
Then again do I currently care what she thinks?
"Yea maybe" I said laughing
"Speaking of sweet tooth lets get an ice cream. You love it from here" she said tugging my hand to the stand
Luckily there wasn't a long line. I didn't even have to tell her my order. She knew exactly what I wanted
I was going to pay for us but she stopped me "my treat" she said with a smile
The worker handed us our ice cream in baseball helmet looking bowls and we walked away
"What flavor did you get?" I asked her looking at her bowl
"I got strawberry today" she said and I tried picking at her bowl with my spoon
"No, you always do this y/n" she said laughing trying to pull her bowl away
"What? You always choose good things" I said laughing
I kept fighting her trying to get a spoonful giggling in between
"Im kidding. I just like to mess with you" I said still smiling and laughing
"Okay fine. But I give it to you" she said and I stopped walking and faced her
She got a spoonful and fed me the ice cream
"What do you think? It's good right?" She asked and I nodded
"It is" I said wiping my mouth with a napkin we continued to laugh "here try mine" I said lifting my spoon
"You get the same thing all the time I know how it tastes" she said and I laughed
"Just try it. Its fair this way" I said
She gave in and opened her mouth allowing me to feed her the ice cream
She ate it then still giggled as she looked away
"Tastes the same as always. But thank you" she said
In the midst of our banter I saw she had ice cream on her face
"Wait hold still" I said and wiped her face for her
In the middle of the act I saw the way she stared into my eyes. She had a wide grin.
We always acted like this with each other. And the realization of her still having a crush on me hit me. I couldn't be leading her on like this. I just kept crushing her and I felt like an asshole
I didn't mean to it just happens naturally. I pulled away and tossed the napkin in the trash bin that we walked by
"Thanks" she said
We heard our names being called and saw Maria walking towards us with Jasper
They had food and drinks in their hands
"God you guys are so cute" Maria said coming up to us "look at this video I took"
I saw that she got that entire ice cream interaction Stacy and I just had
She posted it to her instagram story and captioned it
"They always fight over ice cream"
"That's so cute. But she always does that" Stacy said lightly shoving me
"I don't like changing my food options but she always gets something that looks good" I said shrugging
"you need to try new things y/n" she said as we all started walking back to our seats
"You can't change me" I said jokingly as we walked down the steps
"Believe me I know" she said as a matter of factly
I felt like there was more to the meaning of that than she intended
I shrugged it off. I couldn't have the two only girls I've ever cared about be mad at me at the same time
We went back to our seats and for the rest of the game I actually enjoyed it. I think that short time with Stacy helped me out of whatever I was feeling
Our team won and we decided to go celebrate at a nearby bar full of other fans
I had a few drinks and I was genuinely having a good time.
I took a seat next to Maria as I waited for the bar attender to make me a new drink
"Look who viewed my story" Maria said as she showed me her phone screen
In the views I saw that Camila had watched it
I hadn't thought about her all night since earlier
"Yikes" was all I said
"Don't worry about it. You have fun" she told me
"Since when does she follow you?" I asked
"The night we all hung out" she said and I nodded "she followed almost everyone I think"
"You posted that video on purpose didn't you?" I asked and she had a mischievous smile
"Maybe" she said "look, I like her I really do. But you and Stacy are my best friends. I care about you more"
I just laughed lightly
"You're messy for that" I said and she shrugged
I got my drink and I continued to enjoy my night with my friends.
We stayed out til late. Kevin had dropped me off at home.
By the time I was finally laying down in bed I grabbed my phone and looked at what I had missed
Just a few random notifications
Some messages from other friends
Still nothing from Camila
I went back on Twitter for a little to scroll. A part of me didn't want to search her name but I just couldn't resist
Immediately more photos of her and that guy popped up
@/romance_cabello: why do I kind of ship them 🥺
Oh look the phone she's been ignoring me with
They look like a genuine couple.
She doesn't look like someone that has a whole list of different men and me
She looks like such a good girl. The perfect girlfriend
"She's evil" I whispered closing my eyes
I closed the app clenching my jaw. This time I opened Instagram
I saw she posted on her story but I didn't even bother looking at it
I saw my friends had tagged me in stories so I opened those instead
There were group photos posted. Group videos. Drunken stupid videos
I reposted them.
Maria had tagged me in the video she posted of Stacy and I. And Stacy had reposted it tagging me as well
I decided to repost it as well because it was kind of cute
I forgot Stacy had us take a picture with our ice cream bowls together. She was staring at the camera with an annoyed glare while I pretended to try and take a bite of her ice cream and she captioned it
"I'll always let you steal my ice cream 🍨🙄💖"
I clicked on Stacy's profile and noticed that Camila didn't follow her. Well she's gonna see that story regardless
Fuck it. I decided to repost it.
I added the caption
"It tastes better from her bowl 🤷♂️"
Stacy was still my friend after all. Camila was going on dates with some dude. It didn't matter
I couldn't deny that my feelings for Camila were growing stronger and stronger each time I was with her
But seeing the way she tries to act like a controlling girlfriend when other girls are around me or even try interacting with me while she's out with other men is not worth this stress
I truly do like and care about her but if she were to stop our relationship I don't know if it's the worst idea
