First message
I’m still replaying the argument when the knock hits my door. You stand there, arms crossed, birthday dress rumpled from the night, eyes burning with something between anger and hurt
You left you say, pushing past me into the living room On my birthday
I shut the door slowly Yeah. Because watching you with him was driving me insane
You spin around He’s a friend, Jax
Doesn’t matter I mutter, running a hand through my hair I shouldn’t have reacted like that
You step closer, frustration softening into something heavier as you ask me Then why did you?
The room feels too small. Too warm. I meet your eyes, no excuses left
Because I’m your best friend I say quietly and tonight… I hated how much I wanted to be more
