April and I were having a girl's day since it was finally the weekend. We were watching a movie in her room, stuffing our faces with popcorn.

I reached for another handful when she grabbed my wrist.

"Z, is that from Aaron??" She held up my right wrist. It had a purple bruise forming on it.

April never approved of Aaron. She thought that he was rude so she always looked for excuses for me to break up with him. I told Aaron about this and he felt bad. Although, I told him that he didn't have a reason to be sorry.

I pulled my arm out of her grasp and looked at my bruise.

"No, April." I sighed. "I was carrying my laundry, wasn't paying attention, and crushed my wrist in between the door and basket."

April didn't respond right away. Instead, she tilted her head to the side a bit. She looked empathetic and concerned. Like how a parent looks at a child.

"Zoe... I'm alway here if you need me," she gently placed her hand on my left arm. "If Aaron is hurting you, you can tell me."

I scoffed and stood up, throwing her blanket off of me.

"You really think Aaron would do that?" I mumbled.

She tried to speak but I ignored her and walked out of her room.

"Zoe, wait-" April called.

I ran out the front door and unlocked me car. Her calls white noise to me. I pulled out of the drive way and headed for Aaron's house.

When I arrived, I was crying a bit. It hurt to have a best friend not believe you. Not to mention try to break up you and your boyfriend.

I knocked on the door twice and waited for Aaron. Sniffling, I wiped some tears away.

He finally opened the door. His eyes widened when he saw my tears. I quickly pulled him in for a hug and sobbed. We stood there for a moment, holding each other.

Aaron picked me up with a grunt and shut the door. He walked us over to a couch and asked me, "what's going on?"

It took me a second to pull myself together, but I managed to tell him what happened.

"I just hate that s-she doesn't trust you. I love her but-" I let out a silent breath and wiped my face. "I want her to like you."

Aaron kissed my forehead and sighed.

"Not all your friends are going to like me, princess." He stated. "Don't let me get in between you and April. You guys are best friends."

"I know, but I love you and I want you guys to get along."

Aaron shrugged. "I hope she'll eventually come around. But you have a great relationship with her that you can't lose."

I chuckled a bit.

"What?" Aaron questioned with a smile.

"You're like a therapist." I commented.

He laughed at my statement.

"Yup."
