That Isn't Possible

Eleanor's POV

"..so just for the record, it has not always been him."I tell Ben. I'm not too sure how Devi would feel about me telling Ben this, but it needed to be done. I have watched my friend be lost and then be broken down, I've picked up the pieces after the damage that she caused and suffered, but throughout all of this one thing that has remained constant is how she has regretted being unfaithful specifically to Ben, I've heard her cry one too many times about how 'he was all in'. Albiet jealousy is the worst emotion that love injects into a person but one cannot deny that it was her passion for him that consumed her when it came to Aneesa! And now that Devi has finally built herself a healthy relationship, the last thing this guy gets to do is think that she moved on and left him behind.

He looks dumbfounded. What does he want? I don't mean to say that he deserves to hurt more, but isn't he with someone else now? If he never stopped caring for Devi then why start dating someone else? Man emotions are complicated. At least I'm sure I'm over that douchebag Malcolm. I always thought this guy Trent was interesting, his horseplay always seemed to intrigue me.

I have walked away now, to leave Ben alone to simmer in his thoughts. I'm looking for Fab when I feel a tap on my shoulder, "Hey Eleanor, where did you go?"

It's Trent, I completely forgot I abandoned him.

"Oh sorry I was just getting punch"

"Thats okay, listen, Can I ask you something?"

"um, sure?" I say.

"Would you like to come over to my place and hang out tomorrow? I'd love to show you my old classic movie collection, I'm secretly a cinema fan but like, no one I know gets me yo!"

Is he asking me out?!

"I love old Hollywood classics! I'd love to!"

He smiles!

"Its a date!"

he says and walks away leaving me smiling. Just then I see Fabiola and Eve with Eve's friends sitting on their thrones, ugh my heart aches with how cute these queens look! I hate to worry her right now but, I think I should tell Fab about my interaction with Ben.

"Hii you guys! Do you mind if I steal Fab away for a sec?"

"Eleanor! OH MY GOD, did you see Paxton showed up! I guess he's not that big of an ass huh!"

Eve laughs at Fab's remarks,

"Yes I did its great, but we've got kind of a more pressing matter at hand right now!" To me the matter seems to escalate as I sit in what I just told Ben, the fact that she still had feelings for him even when he was with Aneesa, I'm kinda afraid of what he'll do with this info..My tone seems to have conveyed the urgency ofmy state of mind, fabiolas facial excitement goes down as she starts to stand up,

"Umm yes sure, I'll be right back babe"

She kisses Eve on the cheek, cute but I can't adore that right now.

"Whatsup?"

"Soooo I'm afraid I just told ben that Devi still had feelings for him while he was dating Aneesa, and that all that she did to Aneesa was because of how jealous she was of Ben dating her....."

"What? Why El? How is that relevant right now? Idk about you but it kinda seems to me like Paxton is here as her boyfriend now!"

"I know I know but he was like 'its always been him' and it kinda irked me that he was acting like she was the one that abandoned their love story, when he was the one that gave up on them and started dating someone else! And now I'm worried of what he'll do, I mean what if he still has feelings for Devi and he breaks up with aneesa because of me?"

"El, first of all they do not love each other this isn't a play it doesn't matter what he thought! And secondly, let a guy have his moment, he got cheated on just a month ago ya know, he probably doesn't have feelings for devi anymore but wouldn't it still hurt to see your ex back with the guy she cheated on you with?"

When she said it like that it kinda made sense why he was dumbfounded..

"Youre right Fab, I was kinda overreacting huh"

Just then we hear Aneesa slam a cup on the floor and storm out of the room , Ben runs after her calling her to wait. Shit! Did he do what I was afraid of?

Devi's POV

"What do you guys know???"

I ask them again, judging by thier hesitation to answer me, I bet it is something bad, and that worries me.

"Devi...." They tell me what Eleanor told Ben and how she's worried that he broke up with Aneesa because of me.

"That isn't possible. Ben doesn't like me anymore, why would he? Plus I've seen them together, they've hooked up, they're constantly hanging out, they're getting into those annoying tickle fights everywhere, they're kissing in goddamn facing history! he does not have feelings for me now, he's moved on big time!" I say. And I believe every word. There's nothing to worry about. And thank God for that. But then what was their fight?

El and Fab nod quietly,

"Devi's right" Fab says "thier fight is probably something personal, he did go after her! let's just ask aneesa on text and go over to her house tomorrow or something."

"Youre right, intruding in this couples life has only gotten me to ugly places" I think out loud.

"Yaa I kinda overreacted, lets leave them alone you guys." El says.

"Welp, I should probably get back to my boyfriend Paxton! That's right Boyfriend you guys! His words!!"

"We saw! And as long as you're sure he's done being an asshole and you're sure you don't wanna cheat on him with anyone else this time, we approveth the of this relationship!" Fabiola says and I laugh..

"You guys!! Trent asked me out on an old Hollywood cinema date tomorrow!"

"What really? Trent as in Spurt Yurt trent?" Fab says

"Yup him, he came to Eleanor at the punch stand earlier and was like 'youre straight-up transcendent yo' El, tell us everything tomorow! He's like dumb but in a winsome way" I say.

We all laugh as we walk back in.

"All okay Aneesa? Your fight with Ben kinda looked bad, do you need anything?" I type out a text i feel is both perfect for non-intrusion and for satiation of my worry. And sent.
