When u needed me (GXG)
Chapter-16 August 31st

Faithlynn's POV

I woke up in Reagan's bed but she wasn't here. How did I get here, I thought.

I went down and saw Reagan sitting in front of the TV with Venessa, watching some cartoon. I went into the kitchen where Nadia was probably making breakfast for her sister and daughter.

"Good morning, woah" Nadia said turning her head to look at me. I looked at her confused as to why she was so shocked to see me.

"Good morning to you too." I said frowning.

She come close to me examining my face then her eyes travel to my arm; there was a light purple imprint of fingers.

I try to hide it by pulling my sleves down but she stopped me and look at me with concern in her eyes.

"Who did this?" She said refering to my arm. "Why are your eyes swollen and red?"

I diverted my eyes away from her and mummble "It's nothing".

"It's not nothing Faithlynn, who did this? Did Reagan hurt you." I didn't say anything, I didn't even knew I had a faint bruise from last night, if i knew I would've hide it.

"Faith come on tell me did Reagan did this? Is she hurting you? Were you crying?" She asked all the questions desperately wanting me to answer her, but all I could do was cry. And thats what I did; I started crying. She hugged me and ask me to tell her what's going on.

"It was just a misunderstanding." I sniffed, wiping my face.

"Look Faithlynn if something or anything you want to tell me, you can just talk to me. You're like a sister to me. Okay?" I nodded.

She put the eggs and toast in a plate and sat them on the kitchen Island. And called for Venessa and Reagan.

Just as my eyes make contact with Reagan's her face fall and I felt my heart cringed. She hates me now. I rushed back to our room not really wanting to cry in front of Venessa, Nadia called after me but I didn't stop and went to our room to cry my eyes out while laying on my stomach.

.....

I don't know how much time had passed, I was still laying in bed. I heard the door of the room opened.

"Faithlynn are you awake?" April asked. Her voice coming closer as well her steps.

I sat up and looked up at her, as soon as she saw my face she came and hugged me then Nadia too came beside me comforting me with a warm hug.

"Everything is going to be okay." April smiled reassuringly. I nodded and smiled.

"Okay, so no more dwelling over that asshole, we're going to the mall." April said.

"I don't want to go anywhere." I said weekly but April and Nadia weren't having it.

April pushed me in the bathroom for a shower so they could pick out an outfit for me.

I took my time in the shower, warm water cascading down my curves, it felt so good, I closed my eyes and feel every drop of water hitting me, then my mind went back to the event of last night. How low she thinks of me. It's like she doesn't even know me. I felt horrible to know what my own best friend think about me. It pained me to know that she had no trust in me, that she felt disgusted with me, that she doesn't even want to see my face. And here I'm falling for her even when she make me feel so small and worthless. How can I manage to be wedded with someone who doesn't even want to look at me without getting upset.

I wore the outfit that both Nadia and April had given me; blue jeans short, white sleeveless crop top with white shoes.

"You look so hot." April whistled. Making me smile.

"Okay let's go girls." Nadia said walking out of the room, April held my hand and dragged me down in the living room.

"Let's go driver." Nadia said hitting Reagan on the shoulder and picking Venessa up in her arms.

I can't help but to chek her out. She's wearing dark red collar t-shirt with black jeans and a black leather jacket over it. April cleared her throat making me blush.

"Reagan, hello Earth to Rea?" Nadia said waving infront of Reagan. She was staring in my direction. She walked up to me without saying anything she drape her leather jacket on my shoulder.

"Don't take it off." She said looking straight into my eyes. "Please" she whispered I nodded and wore the jacket properly.

Next thing I know I was being dragged by Amelia towards the car, Reagan following behind us.

Nadia, Edward, Venessa, Max, Frank and Aron were in other car while April, Amelia, Me and Reagan would be taking Reagan's car.

When we reached the car Reagan and Amelia hold the car doors opened for me.

"Get in." Amelia said with a smirk directed to Reagan. Reagan just stare at me with a blank face waiting for me to get in the passenger seat.

"Hurry up guys what's taking you so long?" Max yelled from their car which was behind Reagan's car.

I took a seat in the back beside April, Amelia followed with a chuckle. Reagan shut the door of the passengers side really hard, making all three of us cring at the sound.

"Take us to the mall, chauffeur." Amelia laughed mocking Reagan. I could see Reagan's knuckle whiten as she gripped the steering wheel tightly.

"So Reagan, how was the ice cream you were eating yesterday?" Amelia said.

"Did you eat all of it? You should re-stock your fridge, I really liked that flavour." Amelia said drapping her right arm around my shoulder and putting her left hand on my thighs.

I could see Reagan eyeing Amelia through rear view mirror. But didn't say anything.

"You're looking so hot Faithlynn." Amelia whispered in my ear. Her hand travelling up on my thighs.

The car swered to the curb and stopped, Regan got out of the car furiously, dragged Amelia out of the car and held her hand out for me "come" she said in a low, calm voice but I can see she is anything but calm.

When I didn't move she picked me up and carry me towards the passenger's side of the car, and settled me in the seat.

"What are you looking at? Freak. Get in." She yelled at Amelia. While taking the seat behind the wheel.

"Possessive are we?" Amelia chuckled receiving a smack from April on the head as Reagan started the car.

All of a sudden I feel nervous sitting beside her, she kept glancing at me as if wanted to say something.

.....

We have been in the mall for a while now, Reagan had left us to go buy Venessa something she had promised.

"Faith, would you text Reagan to meet us at the food court." She asked politely. I nodded and send a quick text to Reagan.

We waited for Venessa and Reagan to come so we can order.

After 10 minutes they both finally came. Regan smiling down at excited and joyous Venessa, she had a white Owl in her hand while Regan had some shopping bags in hers.

Regan looked so breathtaking in that T-Shirt, not like she don't usually, but today, in that colour she looks amazing, I just want to keep staring at her, hug her and see that smile on her face forever.

As they both near us Venessa come running towards me with a shopping bag in her hand and gave it to me. And went to her mother while Reagan went to give orders.

Curious, I looked into the bag and there was a small light pink wolf necklace in it. It was so pretty. My eyes searched for the only pair of eyes I have been longing to look at.

And there she was standing, looking at me. She doesn't have that look that she had in the morning but she was looking at me lovingly like she just wanted to come and hold me. And I just wanted to run in her arms and hug her so tightly.

But I can't, I can't do any of those things. I don't even know if she had forgiven me or if I had forgiven her for what she had done to me the other night.

Can't she just come to me and apologize, but why would she? She must be thinking that I'm the only one at fault, that I should apologize for cheating on her, for not sleeping in our room when she was gone, for slapping her because she was blaming me for nothing.

Tears threaten to flow out of my eyes so I excused myself and went to the rest room. I was hurting, I was hurting so much. Why do I have to be the one falling for her so hard, when I know that for the first time she wouldn't going to be there for me. Why can't I expect her to be there for me. As she always has been whenever I needed her. This is so much painful, my heart hurts, causing every part of me to hurt.

Restroom's door opened and she was there standing, concern written all over her face.

"A-Are you o-okay?" She said looking into my now red swollen eyes. I hastily wiped my face and nodded.

"Want me to get you something?" She asked softly. I wonder where her anger went. She touched my arm in a comforting way but I flinch back, because of the bruise.

"I'm sorry." She said taking a step back.

"Here." She handed me a handkerchief. I took it and fixed my makeup and went out of the restroom without saying another word. She followed behind.

After eating, everybody went back to there shopping. Leaving me and Regan to ourselves.

Amelia won't leave my side and keep flirting but April dragged her with herself.

"Thanks for the necklace." I said to break the awkward silence.

"Do you want to buy anything specific?" She asked totally ignoring my gratitude.

"No, not really." I said not wanting to be a bothersome to her. And not wanting to spend her money.

She grabbed my hand in a firm grip and lead me to a makeup store. She talked to the Assistant there and tell her to show every possible product according to my skin tone and would ask me here and there if I want it or not.

She brought me 3 bags of only makeup , I'm glad because I have been using April's makeup for a while now.

Then she took me for shoes and clothes shopping, by the time we were done her hands were full of 5 bags each out of which only 3 bags have her stuff.

All the while she would just ask me if I want something or not. I would just answer in 'yes' or 'No'. Other than that we didn't talk at all.

After we were all done we met in the parking and she held the passengers door open for me and without saying anything I get in and we all went back to our home.

Reagan carry our shopping bags into our room and I followed. I'm conflicted if I should sleep in her room or not. So I just stand at the doorway not knowing what to do, while she was taking her night clothes out from the closet.

She looked at me confused "why are you standing there?" She spoke a full sentence to me for the first time in a whole day.

"Ummm.. should I stay or should I go?" I asked.

"What?" Still confused.

"Do you want me to sleep somewhere else?" I asked looking at the floor.

"What? No, no. Why would you say that." She said coming towards me.

"It's your room, our room. You don't have to sleep anywhere but here. And I can sleep somewhere else if that's what you want?" She asked understanding my question totally wrong.

"No sleep with me." I rushed, she stard laughing and I blush. Oh! Her laugh, I can listen to her laugh forever.

She walked to the bathroom still laughing, a smile crept on my face itself.
