When I woke up it was just about two o'clock. I looked up to find Selena staring at me. She had been here holding me all day. "Sorry" I said jumping up out of her arms. "It's fine" She smiled at me not at all mad at me for making her miss her classes that day.
I helped her up from her spot. "You didn't have to-" she cut me off. "I honestly wanted to skip those classes anyway. Don't apologize, Demi. Are you feeling better?" I felt good till she reminded me of before.
"I should go" I didn't want to lie to her about Taylor so I felt it was best to leave. I tried to make my way to the door, but she stopped me. "I want to help you" Her kindness melted my heart. I can't let you. "I am feeling better. Thanks. It's nothing to worry about. Just had a rough night." That was the first time the previous day was mention by either of us.
She let go of me. "I'm sorry. I kicked you out for no reason. I just saw the rumors and freaked. Taylor's my best friend. She comes before anyone else. But now I know they're not true." Her eyes were soft and remorseful. I wanted to tell her it was okay, but it wasn't.
I left her there without any acknowledgement. I didn't want to talk with her because I knew it would lead to an argument. I walked home tired still in silence.
Once inside the house I followed the steps up to my room and immediately went under the covers. I dozed off into la la land dreaming of my princess, Selena.
