(a/n: i'm so sorry it's taken me a bit longer than usual i was super super busy yesterday and today, BUT i'm rushing to write this because i feel bad that it's been longer than usual since i updated! also ALMOST 60 THOUSAND READS? ILY GUYS SM WTF)

evies pov: 
we get to the bonfire and as i step on to the sand i feel my converse sink slightly into it. i adjust my low-ish cut tank top and i walk around looking for anyone i know.

i see some girls i'd previously met at some parties so i go up and talk to them. "heyyy" i smile

"hey evie!"

"what's up evie!"

we all talk for a bit but they ended up walking off or leaving. i realize that it was getting late and i had to be up early to catch my train.

i go find jeremiah and i see him talking to a girl.

"hey jere" i smile

"hey evie, everything okay?"

"yeah i just need you to take me home soon, i'm sorry"

"what? why? it's early" he laughs

"yeah. it's early, don't be a fucking dud" the girl chimes in

"excuse me?" i say turning to her

"who is this, your little sister or something?" she laughs

"my names evie"

"she's not my sister" jeremiah says awkwardly

"is she your girlfriend?" she says quickly

"uhh no, she's not"

for some reason i'd hoped that he would say yes. i know that we aren't dating, but i wish he would be a little better at defending me.

"then what is she" the girl says giving me a weird look

"go ahead jere, what am i to you?" i say annoyed

"it's complicated." he says scratching his neck

oh?

not even saying we're a thing?

or that we're talking?

"complicated?" i say softly so that only he can hear "god jeremiah. i knew this was a mistake" i scoff

"what?" he says to me

"look i'll walk home if it's that big of a deal for you"

"evie no, you're not walking home"

"well clearly it's a problem for you to take me home."

"look i didn't mean it like that at all, i was just asking why-"

"no it's fine jere really. plus i have friends here i can ask one of them."

"cmon evie i'm sorry. i didn't know what to say and i didn't mean it like that"

i ignore him and walk over to one of my friends who was leaving and asked for a ride.

...

i get home and finish packing up the things i want to change out back at home.

i look at my lockscreen and sigh.

why cant things just go well for me

as i put my phone on my nightstand i hear it buzz.
