Part 11~ Cry our laugh
Sorry for all the misspellings and grammatical errors🙈

Harper
I don't know what I did wrong. I just said that I couldn't make it and he started to yell at me. Well, I kinda understand, he is trying his best to help me remember. But what he doesn't understand it that he is putting to much pressure on me. I need to take small steps and not everything at the same time.
We didn't say much to each other during the rest of the day. I was in the bedroom and he did God knows what. I could hear him speak to someone on the phone but I couldn't hear the whole conversation.
"Yeah yeah, I'm gonna ask her" I heard on the other side of the bedroom door and then he opened it and peaked in his head.
"Me and a few friends are going out. Are you coming with me? You can bring Casey with you if you want?"
My first thought was no. But when I thought about it, it didn't sound so bad at all. I nodded and went out of bed.
"We'll leave in 20" he said before he closed the door and continued to talk on the phone.
I walked to the closet to choose what I can wear. I took down a light pink dress from the hanger
before I walked into the bedroom to put on some makeup. Not too much, just so I look fresh.
When I was finished I walked out to the living room/kitchen where Shawn was already waiting for me. "Are you done?" he asked and put down the empty water glass in the sink.
"Yeah, I think so. I'm just gonna call Casey" I took up my phone and was just going to call her. "No need to. I just called her and we are going to pick her up on the way" he said cold and walked to the door.
I want to apologize, but I don't know how. He is mad at me and he clearly doesn't want to talk to me.
I jumped in in the backseat and scrolled threw my phone, and I could feel Shawn's eyes on me through the mirror but I tried to ignore it.
-At the club-
Casey and I walked directly to the bar and Shawn disappeared somewhere with his friends.
"He just seems to be so mad at me" I said and sipped on my drink. "Sweetheart, he is just trying to help you. And you reject all the things all the time. And if you keep going like this he will give up. I mean, look at him"
She pointed at him and I turned around on the barstool to look at him. "He looks destroyed" "He looks pretty happy to me" I shrugged and took another sip of my drink.
"That smile you see is a fake smile" "And how do you know that?" I raised one eyebrow at her. "Shawn and I have been friends for so long. And I know how he looks when he is sad. Do you see his eyes? They aren't as happy as they used to be. His body position is not as straight as it uses to be. And his smile isn't as warm as he used to have"
I admired him while Casey talked and I can really see it. He is hurt.
I was just going to say something when someone said my name behind me "Harper? Is that really you?" I recognize that voice so badly. I turned around and saw a brown-haired man, brown eyes, and a beautiful smile.
"Philip?" I asked excited, couldn't believe that he is actually standing in front of me "Oh my god I can't believe that it is you!" I threw my arms around him and hugged him tightly. "It's so good to see you after all these years" he said with a big smile and I can't help to fall in love with his British accent.
Casey cleared her throat behind me but I ignored her. "Harper I think we need to go" she tried one more time. "You can go. I'm coming soon" I waved her off and just smiled at Philip.
She sighed and stood up, and I could feel her eyes on us while she walked away.
"Did I said something wrong?" Philip asked and took a sip of his beer. "No, she probably doesn't like the fact that I am talking to you after what you did in high school"
"Oh common. It was like 8 years ago. I have changed" he smirked and rested his hand on top of my bare thigh.
Shawn
I wish that I could have a good time with my friends but I couldn't stop thinking of everything that has happened during this week.
I can't be happy now. I probably sitting here looking like a fool. But there is nothing I can do to help it.
I heard heals and Harpers laugh approaching me but I had too little energy to turn my head to the side and look at her.
"Shawn, you probably remember Philip Archer from high school"
That name made me tense up. I could feel every single nerve and muscle tense up. I swallowed hard and turned my head to the side to see Harper having her arms wrapped around Philips's arm.
"Hey man, it wasn't yesterday" he sad with his stupid British accent and offered his hand. I just looked at his hand and then up at him again. He took down his hand and shoved it down in the pocket of his pants.
I looked at Harper but she totally ignored my gaze. Does she do this because she wants me to get angry, or doesn't she remember how he treated her in high school?
"This is a few of Shawn's friends" she pointed at Brian, John, Connor, and Josiah. Philip offered his hands to them but none of them took it.
"Harper I think it's time to go" I stood up and Philip took up his hands in front of him. "You guys just came. Why don't you sit down and I'll buy all of you guys a drink. I have a feeling that we all will be very good friends"
Harper just giggled and took a seat on the opposite side of the table so she sat right in front of me. I just started at her but she didn't see me, she just looked at Philip showing 8 fingers for the bartender.
"Harper what the fuck" I hissed between my teeth. "Don't you remember anything of how he treated you back in high school?"
She just shrugged her shoulders and shook her head. "I think that I'm gonna go" I stood up and took my jacket. And in that time Philip came back with a tray filled with 8 glasses.
"Are you guys going already?" he asked and put down the tray. "Yes we are" I grabbed Harper's wrist and pulled her up from the chair.
"And you stay the fuck away from my wife. Do you hear me?!" I almost yelled. "Shawn doesn't be so harsh" Harper said and placed one hand on my arm. "No, don't speak Harper" I looked at her with anger in my eyes.
"Yeah, you never get anywhere by being harsh, man" Philip mocked and I just wanted to punch him in the face. "You shut the fuck up before I do something to you"
"Oohhh, so scary" he waves his hands in front of him.
I clenched my fist and I was so close to punching him in the face but Josiah was fast enough to grab my fist. "Let's go man before anyone gets hurt"
He led me out of the club and my heart was raising.
"Shawn-" Harper started but I interrupted her "Get in the car" I said between my teeth. She walked to the car in silence and I said goodbye to everyone.
"Why the fuck did you do that?" I asked as I started the engine. "He was the one that came up to me and started to talk"
"Don't you remember how he treated you back in high school? He treated you like shit and he was cheating on you!"
"I know. I read that in my diary" she crossed her arms and rested her head against the car window. "Then why did you talk to him and why did you walk up to me with your arms hooked around his arm?!"
"Maybe I just wrote it down because I didn't have anything to write about"
"Do you really believe in that by yourself? Do you hear how dumb it sounds?" I raised my voice a little. I couldn't believe her right now. Does she even know what she is saying? I am trying to help and this is what I get back?
"I don't know. He is the last thing that I remember. That we were a couple and that we loved each other"
"That wasn't love between you two" I shook my head
"How do you know that huh?" I could feel her eyes on me and I just had to look at her. "Because I fucking love you, Harper! And you love me! You just don't want to remember that!"
She didn't answer me. She looked at her phone and she was texting someone. "Who are you texting?"
"Casey. Or is it wrong as well?" she looked up at me for a split second before looked down on her phone again.
I snatched the phone from her hand "Hey give it back!" she tried to reach it but I kept it away from her reach.
My heart dropped to the ground. Reading everything they have sent each other. I can't believe my eyes. Am I dreaming? Is this even real?
"Delete his number now!" "No! He is my friend" "Friend huh?" I looked at her again and I didn't know if I should cry our laugh. "Do you even understand what this is doing to me?"
Tears filled up in my eyes and she just looked in front of her. "Answer me!"
"Shawn watch out!"
