"Hey it's steph! Sorry I missed your call, please leave a message and ill-" your phone is silenced as you throw it against the wall. This was the tenth time she had sent you to voicemail.

This wouldnt be the first time steph has ghosted you to hang out with other people. She even said so herself, she had a bad habit of neglecting people she cared about. But it didn't make the sting of her rejection any easier.

You slide down the wall, burying your face in your knees as you mulled over your thoughts, the words of her voicemail replaying over and over again in your mind like a mocking jest.

Tonight was supposed to be different....special even. You had thought that maybe for once she would have chosen you over her other friends, but you were wrong.

You were about to crumble up the confession letter you had written her when your phone lit up from where you'd thrown it. You crawl across the darkness, just in time to read her text before the screen goes black.

"sorry bestie, im with alex and Ryan right now! Ill call you soon. 'Kay?"
