School Is Busting My Ass But Here You Go ๐Ÿฅบโค

Y/n Pov.

Brandon: "I know you're still pissed off at her, but just talk to her." He said handing me a Redbull.

Y/n: "I just want to stay to myself, Brandon." I opened the can and looked at him.

Brandon: "No, you want to sit and sulk like a little bitch. We both know you miss talking to her and the two of you have been giving each other the most saddest and intense stares I've seen in my entire life..." He grabbed my arms and picked me up. "So get up and talk to her!" He pushed me forward.

Y/n: "I hate you." I muttered loud enough for him to hear.

Brandon: "I love you more." I rolled my eyes and chuckled seeing her sit inside the house, talking to her friends. I huffed and took a large sip of the Redbull before walking up to them. They all stopped talking and smiled at me.

Hailey: "Can we help you, Y/n?" She smiled. I licked my lips and smiled back.

Y/n: "One person can actually..." I trailed off and looked at Bella, "Do you want to talk?" I asked seeing her blueish-green eyes sparkle with hope in them.

Bella: "Yes!" She said almost immediately before clearing her throat. "I mean, sure," She got up and excused herself from her friends.

I walked us to the movie room and closed the door a little so we could have some privacy if someone walked by. I leaned against one of the chairs in the room and saw her stand near the door.ย 

The tension was thick and both of us seemed stubborn to break it.

Bella: "Y/n..." She mumbled looking at me like a lost child. I frowned feeling my heart clench at the sight. "I'm sorry for the things I said..." She mumbled trying to hold herself together, "I didn't mean to come off as harsh as I did. It's just that whenever I'm with you, I get caught up in the moment and I forget everything else that's happening in my life and when I kissed you...I kissed you because I wanted to." I gulped seeing the honesty in her eyes.

Y/n: "Then why did you say the things you did?" I asked softly, afraid that if I was too loud or blunt I would shatter her fragile state.

Bella: "Because I did the same thing Abel has been doing. We were fighting when we kissed and I did cheat. I don't want to be the person he is, I don't want to cheat and end up hurting his feelings even though he does that to me every day without him even knowing it." She laughed bitterly at the end.

Y/n: "Do you regret kissing me?" I asked crossing my arms over my chest.

Bella: "That's the thing...." She mumbled walking up to me, taking my face in her hands delicately. "I knew I should have felt guilty about it but I didn't and I beat myself up even more because I felt nothing and I would do it all again." She leaned forward and pressed her forehead against mine.

Y/n: "He doesn't deserve you." She sighed.

Bella: "I'm starting to feel like I don't deserve anyone." I uncrossed my arms and moved them around her, careful not to push my luck. She allowed me to wrap my arms around her and hold her closer to me.

Y/: "You deserve someone who knows what they have. You deserve everything, Isabella." She opened her eyes and looked at me.

Bella: "You're the only person I know who thinks the world of me," I nodded.

Y/n: "I have good reason to." I studied her for a while and noticed the stress in her eyes.ย 

She looked tired and overwhelmed with emotions.ย 

Y/n: "Are you okay?" I asked seeing her shrug.

Bella: "I'm managing," I shook my head not liking her answer.

Y/n: "Did you eat?" I asked making her nod.

Bella: "I'm fine Y/n," She said smiling at me reassuringly.

Y/n: "I know a liar when I see one." I stood up straight allowing my tall frame to hover over hers. "Let's sit and talk," I moved around and sat down on the couch in the room. She sighed and sat next to me, "You know you can talk to me. I can see you're overwhelmed." I saw something in her crack.

Bella: "There's just so much happening right now and I don't know what to do." She stressed trying to keep herself together in front of me. "School is stressful, my relationship fell apart, we weren't talking and my mom-" She cut herself off, letting her tears fall. "Y/n if something happens to my mom-" I frowned and moved closer to her.

Y/n: "I thought she was doing better..." I mumbled pulling her body into mine, holding her.ย 

Bella: "She is doing fine, but that day when she was sick. The worse case scenarios kept going through our heads and what if it was worse? What if-" I stopped her.

Y/n: "Bella, you can't think about the what-ifs. It isn't going to make you feel better and right now, you just need to take for granted that your mom is okay. Everything is okay..." I mumbled making her hug me tighter.

Bella: "I know, I'm just scared." I nodded and kissed her head softly.

Y/n: "It's okay to be scared." I held her closer to me until she calmed down.

We sat in silence in the room, not bothering to say anything, and just enjoyed the silence and peace that surrounded us. I felt her head move against my chest and a small sniffle follow.

Bella: "Abel and I are on a break," She broke the silence.

Y/n: "Oh..." I said shocked, "What happened?" I asked trying not to sound too happy about it.

Bella: "The usual, I just couldn't handle it anymore and I was already stressed about my mom and he wasn't helping so I broke up with him." I nodded not saying anything for a while.

Y/n: "Are you okay?" I asked making her pull away and smile at me.

Bella: "I'm getting there," I nodded and smiled at her.

Y/n: "I know I shouldn't ask this, but where does this leave us? Or whatever you want to call what we have..." I stumbled trying to find the right words.

Bella: "I'm figuring a lot of things out right now so I'm not sure honestly," I nodded understanding what she meant. "But that doesn't mean that I'm not going to think about the possibility of us." She leaned forward and kissed my cheek.

Y/n: "Okay, I get what you're saying." I sighed looking at her.

Bella: "So for right now, can we go back to the way we were and be friends?" She asked looking at me with so much hope dancing around in her eyes.

Y/n: "Sure, I can do that." I smiled.

Yeah...I can't do that.

Charly: "Your relationships are confusing." I huffed and pouted at them.

Maddy: "Y/n, it's been two weeks since the two of you had that talk. How are you okay with this?" She asked making my group of friends all add in their comments.

Y/n: "I wish I knew. It's taking a lot for me not to just go up to her and kiss her." I admitted thinking about Bella, "But I also don't want to do something and scare her away." Brandon put his arm around my shoulder and sighed.

Brandon: "It's gonna be okay. You have us to help you out so don't overthink it too much." I smiled and thanked him.

Cindy: Heyy guys!" She smiled running up to us, "Sorry, I know I'm late." She mumbled looking at Kaia and them, "But it seems like I'm not?" She looked around confused as to why practice hasn't started.

Jackson: "Don't stress, there was some meeting that both of our coaches had to attend." She nodded and joined us in having a conversation. They all filled her in on what was happening and I didn't mind cause I knew I could trust Cindy with anything.

I knew the girls for ten years.

Cindy: "Oh Y/n/n, when are you ever going to learn," I rolled my eyes and chuckled at her. We all heard the double doors open and saw our coaches walk in.

"Everyone, line up!" We sighed and made our way to where they were standing. "We are going to have some help going forward for a few weeks!" Coach Walker said we all stared at him confused. "Come on in!" The doors opened again and I saw Bella and her friends along with some guys.

I felt Brandon slap my arm repeatedly whilst some guys catcalled them and girls mentally drooled at the guys. My eyes met Bella's making her smirk and wave at me.

"Alright! Silence! They are here to help you all out. The girls will be helping our cheerleaders out and the boys will be helping the basketball team." Coach Walker made eye contact with me, "I hope you will welcome them with open arms, Y/l/n." I chuckled.

Y/n: "I always do sir," He smiled and shook his head.

"Uh-huh, Coach Edwards, I'm sure your girls will do the same." She hummed.

"I know they will," Maddy laughed softly and leaned closer to me.

Maddy: "Good luck trying to focus." I shoved her playfully and shook my head.

"Captain of the cheerleaders and basketball team, step forward." I stepped forward and smiled at them.

Cindy: "I'm Cindy, the captain of the cheerleading team," She shook their hands.

Y/n: "I'm Y/n, captain of the basketball team," I shook the guy's hands.

"We know, the girls told us." One of them smiled.

"You all know each other?" Coach Walker asked.

Y/n: "Indeed sir," He looked relieved.

"Thank God, that means my job is done. Everyone back to practice!" He shouted making it bounce off the gym walls.

"I'm Fai," I shook his hand.

"Zayn."

"Justin."

"Travis, but everyone calls be Taco."

Y/n: "Hey," I smiled calling my team over and introducing all of them. I watched the girls walk away with the cheerleading team and sighed shaking my head.

Fai: "So, tell us how your team works," I explained the team unit and how we do things making them nod and telling us to play a game so they could see how well we play. They called in the Junior basketball team making me glare at the boy with them.

Jackson: "Isn't that the dude who was hitting on Maddy?" I scoffed. I saw him and his friends walk towards the cheerleaders, Kaia sent us a look for help.

Y/n: "Juniors! On the court!" I shouted making some of their teammates listen whilst the others didn't listen. I walked towards them with Brandon right next to me. "Number Three, could you stop harassing the women and get your ass on the court." He turned and his face fell.

Brandon: "Isn't this the guy you embarrassed a while back?" He asked.

Y/n: "Looks like it, you made the team...how cute." I smiled throwing the ball at his head. "Get on the court," He glared at me before turning back to the girls, his eyes landing on Bella.

"I'll be back sweetheart." He shoved the ball back in my hands making me suck on my teeth.

This little bitch.

Cindy: "Oh God, Y/n, don't do it." She gave me a look.

Maddy: "Let it go," She warned making me close my eyes and take the ball, pulling my arm back getting ready to throw it at his head.

Brandon: "NO!" He grabbed the ball from my hand. "Do you want to get benched before we even start?" I huffed.

Y/n: "Did he say anything to y'all?" I asked looking at them.

Kendall: "You mean besides hitting on Bella? No, not much." Charly made a sound.

Charly: "Shouldn't have said that."

Maddy: "Well, there goes a decent game."

Cindy: "God, Y/n, if Brandon has to pretend to be your dad again and I have to pretend to be your mom again, I'm never going to talk to you again." I rolled my eyes.

Y/n: "I'll behave, calm down." I muttered looking at Bella who seemed amused by my friends and me, "What?" I chuckled.

Bella: "Nothing, you looked a little jealous there." I hummed.

Y/n: "Do I have anything to be jealous about?" I asked raising an eyebrow.

Bella: "Mhmm I guess not but the junior does have some game..." I clicked my tongue. "You're slacking a little Y/l/n." I hummed.

Y/n: "Sure he does," I turned away from them and looked at Juniors who were watching us.

"Shirts and skins! Let's go!" I groaned along with Brandon.

Brandon: "Whenever he says that we end up dying halfway through practice." I shook my head and pulled my shirt over my head revealing me in my sports bra.

Jackson: "Sexy Y/l/n!" He shouted making me laugh and toss my shirt at Charly who caught it. We all got into our positions and waited for the coach. He blew his whistle making me jump and win the ball for us.

Practice was almost done and half of the junior team already passed out on the court or ran out of the gym to throw up, so all in all, the practice was going well. Brandon stole the ball and passed it to me making me jump and dunk the ball.

The whistle blew and I landed on my feet with a loud thud. Coach looked at us all and hummed.

"You all did well. The practice is over!" I thanked him walked to the bench, grabbing my towel, and wiped my face.

"What the fuck was that?" I looked over and saw Shawn huff and wipe his face.

Y/n: "That was coach trying to get some juniors to quit." I laughed shaking my head. I bid everyone goodbye and hung back waiting for the girls with Brandon and Simon.

Kendall: "Not bad Y/n, not bad," She applauded me and the boys.

Y/n: "Thanks." I chuckled.

Zayn: "You all are really good, I think we probably have to work with the junior team though," They laughed.

Y/n: "I think so...." I took my shirt from Charly and smiled at Bella. "So, what's my reward?" She bit her lip letting her eyes roam my body.

Bella: "What for exactly?" She crossed her arms looking at me.

Y/n: "I didn't beat up a junior, I think I deserve a reward for that," I said looking at my friends. "Do I?" They all agreed.

Brandon: "I think she does."

Kaia: "Totally." They all chimed in making me look at Bella and smile again.

Y/n: "So what's my reward?" I asked with a sly grin.

Bella: "Are you free tonight?" She asked.

Y/n: "I am, why-"

Bella: "Good because you're taking me out on a date as your reward."
