Phases...

Present day.

Andrea's POV

My stomach still hurts just by the thought of Kol tickling me. He would have practically tickled me to death if only Tyler and Ryan didn't intervene with the food. God bless them for saving my life.. I don't even wanna imagine how people would take the news of a person being tickled to death. It would have been totally hilarious. If it would have been call then I would have made my funeral a theme funeral. Laughing theme because I died of laughing.. It would have been so different and hilarious.. It could be a potential trend.. Wait!! What if someone died of diarrhea, don't tell me they'll still follow this theme. If anyone can die of tickling then pretty sure this doesn't come as a shocker.. Fine.. I have officially lost my mind, do I literally have nothing better to overthink about..

"You are have lost it.." Said Victoria. Damn! Did she just read my thoughts?

What are you even thinking about from so long?

Nothing much.. Forget it. How are you now? You have no idea how much you scared us earlier. I said, taking her hand in mine.

Look at me, totally fit and fine.. What would even happen to me. You just relax..

Ohh god! Look at her, all chirpy and happy. Always keep her like this, this is how she looks good. I couldn't even recognize that silent version of yours, like it wasn't you but someone else, I say while side hugging her.

"Oh god.. You guys still aren't done with the emotional reunion huh? You look like emotional fools right now.." Said Ryan.

Well! We just look this fools unlike you, who is actually one.

Yea, totally hilarious Vicky. You were better off quiet you now. Don't let people tell you otherwise..

We all burst out laughing remembering this very line. Vicky had this, 'don't let people tell you otherwise phase', she was totally obsessed with this line that she sometimes specially created convos to just use this very line. Then her 'be comfortable in your own skin' phase, her 'I love Physics' phase and my all time favourite, 'I am a princess' phase come to my mind all at once. Good old memories. She was totally adorable in each one of them. She once even publically embarassed herself in the school because of this. She had locked herself in her room for days after she got over it.. That time I felt really really really bad for her but now I feel like it should have been me, atleast I could have ditches classes. I don't know if I will ever get over the fact that I was present in all of her phases. Everytime she had a new phase, I would act like I was into it too because I wanted to befriend her. Get her back, close to our group. We were all literal bestfriends but then gradually she started to drift apart. We always tried to get her back but seemed like she had got really far, so far that it wasn't possible to get her back but then after years, one day, all of a sudden, she wanted us all to go on a trip, wanted to spend time with us which was so shocking that Kol literally took two days to just digest the fact that after all of our futile efforts, she herself came back to us..

I was just thinking about everything that happened in the past few months, how our life changed, how we are here in this anonymous place all by ourselves. How happy we are right now and how worried we were a few hours ago. It is hilarious how life changes so fast, something this moment and something entirely different the other. Look at all of them, laughing, not bothered by anything in the outside world. I want us all to remain just like this, forever.
