Love's A Real Thing Right?

Chapter 26: The longest seven seconds; Part 10

The next day after school he saw Tibia, "Hey Tibia, where's Lacuna?"

Tibia smiled, "She couldn't come to school today, she said she was too tired from yesterday." She punched Ace in his shoulder, "You beast."

"How am I beast, all I did was teach her some stuff yesterday and play around a little."

"You demon, you just taught her some stuff and played around and made her so tired, you tease." Tibia giggled.

"Yeah, I taught her some algebra and then went to the arcade with the boys." Ace assured her.

"So wait, you didn't do anything else with Lacuna?"

"No, what else would I do?"

"You alone with her in her house. What do you mean what you'd do with her?"

"I mean what would I do with her?"

"You insincere clueless ass."

"Ok, hold the hate brakes there sugar muffin. What're you getting at?"

"I'm getting at. You, her in her house alone. By yourselves. What else is there to do?"

"Well I mean we could've watched television or something?" Ace shrugged.

"You really don't know do you?"

"No?"

"She wanted to sleep with you. You dunce."

"Sleep with me, well I was tired, if she was tired she could've just said that and we'd sleep on the couch."

Tibia started rubbing her head, "Ok, let me make this as simple to understand, She likes you."

"Wait, she likes me?"

"Yes."

"Why, I'm ugly, what does she like about me, I'm awkward and broke and just me."

"Anyhow, as I was saying, she liked you and you were alone together and she wanted to sleep with you."

"But we aren't dating though."

"And?"

"Well I mean don't you only sleep with people you love and you're married too?"

"You're a fool Ace honestly, so you're telling me you've been with so many girls and you haven't slept with any of them?"

"Yep, haven't even madeout with any of them."

"Now you're just lying dude."

"No, I'm being serious, because like if I did, we're broken up now, and if I sleep with someone or want to sleep with them, I want to spend the rest of my life with them."

"You're weird Ace, anyhow, I have to go, bye. And don't talk to Lacuna again, I don't think she'll want to talk to you." Tibia left.

Later that evening Ace messaged and called Lacuna incessantly, but there was no answer, and then finally she blocked him and so did Tibia. Ace didn't have any female friends now, except for Avianne that is, they had gotten really close over the past few weeks. So he messaged her;

[Hey Avi, Whatcha doing?]

[Nothing much, Just got home from school you?.]

Ace related what happened with Lacuna.

[You're really stupid you know that.]

[How, that wasn't my fault, I didn't even think she thought of me like that, I mean I thought we were just friends.]

[Yeah, you can be clueless sometimes, but damn, you missed out on an opportunity, she's beautiful. Plus you're not ugly. My Munchkin is very cute and cuddly. OH MY GOD. YOU COULD BE MY TEDDY BEAR. YESSS]
