Regret.
“Where were you last night?” I questioned Ryan.
He blinked and hesitated for a moment before getting up from the ground.
He grabbed my shoulder and leaned down a bit to my height to look me in the eyes. Part of me didn’t want to know the answer. I was afraid that he would admit that he lied to me. I just wanted him to give me some excuse or something to prove Vian wrong.
Meanwhile, Jackson got up from the ground and tried to leave the place.
“Ava, I am so sorry that I lied but it’s not what you think. I would never do something like that to hurt you. I will explain everything later.” He ran to follow Jackson after saying that leaving me alone.
Yet again I was left in the dark with so many questions. I don’t know what everyone is talking about or hiding from me. I don’t understand how I am involved in all of this but somehow they succeeded in making me feel guilty for so

My entire world collapsed, and I was standing there listening to him in terror when Ryan told me everything. I couldn’t imagine how a person could be this vile. I know Jackson, but I never thought even he would do something like this. Ryan also told me how if it wasn’t for Vian that would have succeeded. He also apologized for lying to me about the call with his mom and confessed that he was Nina that night because she asked for his help. “I just didn’t want you to misunderstand. That’s why I lied. I am sorry Ava.” He said with regret. “Why?” I asked Jackson looking at him in disbelief. I still couldn’t believe what I heard, and I wanted to know why Jackson did what he did, after all, I am his best friend’s girlfriend. He snorted and chuckled like it was some kind of a joke. “Why? I just wanted you out of our lives.” He spat with venom in his words. “I lost my best friend because of you and I lost my girlfriend because of my best friend.” Jack
You are my FLAME Is it wrong?
It was a miserable week for me. Vian and Jay avoided me like a plague and gave me a cold shoulder no matter what I do to convince them. Ryan looked dejected whenever I saw him. He looked like being alone didn’t bother him but the light in his eyes was gone. I caught him looking at Jackson having fun with the rest of his friends and then he walked away when he noticed me. He didn’t even try to talk to me. Everyone behaved like we lost something except for Jackson who was the reason for everything that happened in the first place. I wanted to do something about it. I couldn’t watch him having fun while he crushed the spirit in all of us. I waited for the right moment to do something. I didn’t want to take the risk when there is a high chance that he didn’t delete Hazel’s video but I wasn’t going to leave him alone and sit like everything was okay. At the end of the week, I was mentally drained.
You are my FLAME Is that hate?
I know that friends get angry, and they fight, they reconcile and then they fight again and then they reconcile again. This is the vicious cycle I know… the cycle I believe. I believe that if you love someone once then you could never hate them no matter what they did to you. If you hate them, then what’s the point in loving them in the first place? Unless they betray you in some way… even then I don’t know if I could hate them fully. But have you ever thought that your best friend hates you? Like when you approach them to apologize, but all you see in their eyes is that they are not so loving anymore or some foreign emotion that your friend never showed you before. At that moment, has a thought crossed your mind that they hate you? Even if you reconcile and get back together, when you think back at that moment from years now I am sure that you will think that, ‘I thought I almost lost him/her.’ I went home to change deciding that I will

I was sure that I didn’t deserve this. No matter what it is I would never treat them like they treated me now and that made me angry. At that moment, I knew they hated me and the only way I can limit the damage is if I walked away from them, first. “You know what… never mind.” I stood up wiping my tears vigorously. ‘Stupid tears just don’t know when to stop.’ “I thought we are still friends. Now I understand that we are no more. I wouldn’t disturb you guys anymore.” saying that I exhaled deeply trying to control my emotions. “Aves…” Jay called me before I step out of the door. “Stop… Just stop.” I said holding my hand out towards him. “You were walking away like I wasn’t there kneeling in front of you.” I couldn’t hold it in anymore. “I loved you both so much. One mistake… that is all it took for you to throw me away. I mean it wasn’t even a mista
You are my FLAME Forever?
In the upcoming weeks, a lot has happened. We were almost at the end of our high school days. I didn’t feel bad about leaving it all behind. Maybe I will miss my grandma and all of our favorite places where we used to hang out. My favorite tree at school, the ice cream parlor, the park, my roof, and the lake, where I went on my first date. I would miss all those places but I was more excited about our future together in London. Jackson’s issue was covered up by his parents like it was nothing. They made some kind of deal with the police and the girl’s parents to draw a veil over it. The parents agreed to it because they didn’t want the entire town to know about the scandal their girls were involved in. That’s the perk of having rich parents. You can do anything and get away with it. But thankfully Mr. Donan refused to graduate Jackson from our school strictly. So he was sent out of the country to continue his studies by his parents. No o
You are my FLAME Bucket list.
“Jay, open the door.” I banged on the front door for the third time, but there was no response. Vian and I showed up at Jay’s house as soon as it was dawn. I had a plan in my mind to take Jay’s mind off of things. Vian didn’t know anything about my plan, and I was planning to keep it that way until its time. “If you don’t open the door in three, I am breaking in. You know I will do.” I sent a warning. I was about to kick the door in frustration due to lack of movements on the other side but the door opened suddenly making me stumble. Thankfully I balanced myself by grabbing Vian who was standing beside me. “What?” I heard Jay’s curt reply standing with an annoying look at the door. “Get ready. We are going somewhere.” I didn’t give him time to say anything and went inside pushing past him. “Not in the mood.” I heard him from the back. ‘Well, too bad. I didn’t come here
You are my FLAME Hints.
It’s been months since I came to London. We successfully graduated passing the final exams with flying colors. I miss old town badly, but I promised my grandma to visit often before I left. London life was very much different from the life I had in my grandma’s town. Even though I have been visiting my mom every summer, staying here, permanently felt different. The city was always busy, and it was hard to keep up. I felt like I was always running. I helped my mom with café work in the morning, and I worked at a pizza shop as a delivery person in the evening. I applied at the University of London for an English literature course and was waiting for a call from the office. It was my mom’s idea to apply to that college. She thought if I go to college in London then she can spend more time with me unlike before. She had this beautiful picture of my future in her mind where I become a professor or a writer, fall in love, and start a family in London. It all sounde
You are my FLAME Jealous.
It was that day I was the most excited in my life. I woke up early that morning to choose what dress I was going to wear and how I was going to style my hair. It took hours for me to choose a perfect dress. I was in a good mood for the whole day. My mom looked at me weirdly when I was whistling while helping her in the kitchen. My brain was firing serotonin all day keeping me high. I was looking at the clock every five minutes expecting it to strike at 4 pm. I told my mom that I was going out with Vian and started getting ready an hour before. I wanted to look beautiful, but I didn’t want to come out like I was trying too much. I decided to go with a simple purple crop top pairing it with high-waisted jeans and white sneakers. I let my hair down styling it with light end curls. I kept my makeup minimum but concentrating more on my eyes. I used eyeliner and mascara to make my eyes lookout. Vian used to say that my e
