《His Touch | Jonah Marais》95

My aunt let me work the next day which I was really happy to hear. It was just a quite afternoon most people were either at work or at school so there wasn't much people
"hey can I just say thank you for the lovely service, I'll definitely be back" this man says to me as I was walking past
"oh no problem, glad to hear" I smile and go to grab a cloth to clean the tables as the restaurant was empty and I thought it would be a good time to clean the tables
"no they're definitely open" I hear a familiar voice say
"are you sure?" another familiar voice says so I look at the door and see them again. Why are they here?
I ran as fast as could and went behind the counter. Jack pushed the door open and they walked in
"yeah they're definitely closed" Zach says getting ready to turn around but Corbyn stops him and turns him around
"ugh Li get up" Hailey sighs walking up to me. Maybe they won't know its me, hopefully they don't
Daniel slowly walks up once he heard what what Hailey said
"sorry about her" she laughs
"it's fine we just have to make sure we had the right time and date for show here" Daniel tells her awkwardly
"Well Liani will be able to help yous with that" she says making the other boys look over too
I slowly stood up from behind the counter and made direct eye contact with Daniel and it was so awkward
They all walked up to the counter silently. I walked away from them not saying anything and getting the time and date for them on a sheet of paper
I walked back out and handed the paper to Daniel

"thanks" he says quietly
"okay bye" I say coldy and then walk back behind the counter
"wait, wait what just happened?" Zach says seeming shocked
"why are you here?" Daniel asks me confused
"why would you care?" I say annoyed and roll my eyes
"because you're my-" he starts to say but I cut him off
"don't lie" I sigh
"yous all cut me off and left me with no explanation, yous couldn't tell me that yous are busy?" I ask getting even more annoyed
"you know what, it doesn't matter" I say and take a deep breath
"no it does, we shouldn't have done that and I know it looks bad" Daniel says sadly and looks down
"Is there anything we could do?" Zach asks softly
"yeah don't talk to me" I say I with a forced smile again
"you wouldn't won't that though" Jonah says making me look at him for the first time in ages
"why, give me a reason why" I say annoyed
"because even though we practically ignored you and didn't give you a reason, you still miss your amazing friends" he says with a small smile at the end
"oh so you talk to me now?" I say to him acting shocked
"I think I might need a seat" Jack says and awkwardly sits down
"you're the one who called me when you were drunk" he says reminding me. Why didn't I delete his number?
"shut up" I say and roll my eyes
"but I get what you mean by missing my friends but, I don't trust them now so whoops" I say walking closer to him. Where is this confidence coming from?
"can we get one more chance?" Jack asks me awkwardly
"look you're right, we didn't treat you the way friends should and we don't deserve you but it's not like we haven't been thinking about you, we've missed you, we've missed being friends with you" Zach tells me sounding sad

"oh my god, you guys think about me I'm flattered" I say jokingly
"yup" Zach smiles
"I've missed my best friend" Daniel says making me look at him
I walked to him and wrapped my arms around him for a hug. He hugged me back. I missed this, I missed my best friend too and it felt great to be able to hug him after being apart for so long
"I missed you too" I say feeling a tear drip down my cheek
"I need a tissue" Zach says and hugs into Corbyn
"he's very emotional" Corbyn says dramatically. I laugh and Daniel and I let go off each other
I haven't hugged Jonah in ages. It just felt awkward. But I didn't know how to explain his touch until I couldn't have it. That probably sounds stupid but a simple hug he gave me would make me feel happy and safe. Like I had hope and I didn't need to worry
That just sounds weird because we're not together. But I just don't understand how he has that affect on me
"can I have a hug?" Jonah asks me with smile
"ew no" I say sarcastically but I hug him right after I say that and he hugs me back. There's that feeling again. That safe one
"me next" Corbyn smiles and I give him a hug too
"Wife! Yes you're still my wife and always will be" Jack smiles and pulls me in for a hug
"of course" I chuckle agreeing with him
"Zach come here" I say and motion him in for a hug and I hug him
"I guess I missed yous" I smile
