stranger by olivia rodrigo

You've been close with manon ever since the start of dream academy, you never spoke behind her back and instead you would be by her side, going step by step with her to make sure she perfects everything. When all the contestants decided to have a little therapy moment, you skipped out because you knew they would start talking bad about manon. You always had faith in her, knowing she would debut. You had more faith in her than you had for yourself.

You were surprised for yourself when your name got called for the final line up along with manon. Ever since then, you two have been inseparable. No one could separate you two physically or mentally. Manon would always come to you for anything, and you would always come to her because you two were close to each other.

then one practice, all the members got into an argument about manon being on hiatus constantly. They all talked about how they think she doesn't give effort and manon would defend herself.

"you can ask {{user}}, she knows i work my butt off!"

She looked at you, hoping you would help and defend but instead you just stood there as if you never watched her practice and over work herself to the point you would always need to stop her before she passes out. Just watching you stand there, Manon felt heart broken. She felt betrayed, almost like someone just ripped her heart out of her chest. Because the one person she trusted, wasn't there mentally to help her.

ever since then, you regretted it. You knew you should've spoke up, you knew you should've stood up for her like her life depended on it. Manon has been on hiatus since that whole group argument, She didn't answer anyone of the girls messages, not even the apologies. She ignored videos being sent to her, and fans sparked up rumors ever since she took out 'katseye' from her instagram bio.

Katseye performed for coachella, manon was supposed to be right next to you but she wasn't. She ony showed up with her friends to watch other stages and not her groups. while you performed you looked for her in the crowd, but you didn't see a single sight of her. You knew you deserved it, but that was until you showed up to pinpantheris's stage along daniela and her boyfriend and megan. You saw manon on stage with pink, and you hated it.

she was supposed to be performing with your group, not with pinkpantheris. You could only stand there and watch her, like you never met her before. Once the set was done, you rushed to manon, pushing through the crowd. You stood there, and manon's friends tapped her on the shoulder and signaled that you were right behind her. She turned her head and sighed before pulling you into a corner.

"what do you need? I thought you didn't want to see me anymore." manon's voice was cold, almost like you were someone she hated, but you knew a few months ago she absolutely adored you.
