LEXIE
Lexie quickly deletes the text before sending.
Lexie stares at the emoji for over a minute, her face a bright shade of red.
Lexie feels a sharp pain in her chest as she reads the words.
She laughs to herself as she types a response.
Lexie almost gets a heart attack when she sees the symbol, knowing exactly what he’s hinting at.
She smiles to herself and mutters, “More than you know.”
Lexie reads his last two words a few times. She knows Josh doesn’t love her as more than a friend but she likes to pretend he does in the delusional world of her own little mind.
She watches as his status changes to offline. She presses the home button on her screen and lays her head against her pillow.
She closes her eyes and drifts off to sleep, thinking about her best friend who she may never be able to call hers.
