One Night Stands

Mikey was always the sweetheart of our group of friends.

He was the one that I had fallen for.

But we were just Best Friends.

He had someone he loved.

It wasn't me.

Her name was Jasmine.

"Katri"

"Hey Mikey" I said smiling as he walked up to me.

"I haven't talked to you in so long" he said smiling.

"You're always with Jasmine" I said shrugging.

"Yeah" he said looking at his feet "I'm sorry about that"

"Don't worry about it" I said smiling the best I could.

"I have some really good news" Mikey said suddenly looking at me again.

"Really?"

"Yeah, the band is getting signed" he said happily.

"Mikey that great!" I said hugging him.

"There is something else" he added hugging back.

"What's that?" I asked releasing him from the hug and smiling like crazy.

"Jasmine and I are getting married" he said smiling.

My smile fell "Oh"

"You okay Katri?" he asked looking worried.

I smiled as best I could "Yeah, I'm fine. I just remembered I need to get home and...do something" I mummbled the last part.

"I'll see you later then?" Mikey asked still looking worried.

"Yeah" I said giving him another weak smile, before turning and walking away.

The next day Mikey tried calling me.

I didn't answer.

3 months later I got an invitation to his wedding.

I went and watched the man I loved marry someone else.

At least he was happy.
