Elisabeth (Mon, Sep 8)
The day that Kate was going to leave had come. This day was really saddening for all of us. I could already feel the tears coming down my face, and she hadn't yet left. Her uncle was helping her pack her things, and she was sitting on the stairs in front of her aunt's house, talking with us.
"I'm going to miss you so much", Patrick said while playing with her hair as she was resting her head on his shoulder. We all agreed that he would miss Kate the most out of everyone, but the truth was...I'd miss her just as much. I had grown up with her, after all. But, as far as I knew, they'd known her since their childhood, too. She'd come here often and they'd hang out together, so it's understandable how much Patrick would miss her.
"Don't worry! I will be calling you every day, and I'll try to come ASAP", she said, kissing Patrick on his cheek. "By the way, Eli, what did you and Elijah do last night, after you left the party?", she asked, smirking at me.
"Uh...n-nothing? Like...what w-were we s-supposed to do...?", I asked while stuttering in confusion as to why she asked such a thing. This question honestly scared the fuck out of me.
"Wait a minute- Did you and Elijah have sex?!", she asked and Elijah and I looked at her in shock.
"What the f-", I tried to talk but Elijah stopped me.
"What makes you think I'd get under a girl's pants while she's drunk?! You know too goddamn well that neither I nor Patrick would do such a thing, no matter the situation!", Elijah said, practically yelling at Kate.
"But when she's drunk her sexual dri-", Elijah immediately interrupted her.
"It simply does. not. matter! She was fucking. DRUNK. What is up with you today?! You never used to ask such questions. And, FYI, the only thing we did was to kiss. Happy?", he asked and sat back down, putting his hand around my back and bringing me closer to him.
"Well, FYI, Elisabeth had planned to get drunk yesterday night. Except for the fact that she wanted to try all the drinks, she also did it to get her sexual drive high. As you probably already know, Elisabeth has an issue and she can only get turned on if she's under the influence of alcohol and so-", she stopped when she saw the tears on my face. I stood and immediately ran off to the back of the house. Elijah followed me, and I almost immediately noticed that he was behind me. All I did was cry even harder.
"What's wrong?", he asked me.
"I'm sorry- I didn't want you to find out about it like this. I wanted to tell you someday, but I was too scared you'd dislike me for i-", and he hugged me.
"I don't care if the only way you can get turned on is if you're drunk. It simply doesn't matter to me. It doesn't change anything. And it never will", I was sure he could feel my tears running down my cheeks.
"I don't know why I even questioned myself about telling you this issue...You've seen me in a state where no one has ever seen me in. I trust you, I really do. I'm sorry...", I replied and hugged him harder. Kate soon approached us with Patrick.
"Can I talk with you for a moment, Eli?", she asked. I immediately stood up and went towards Kate.
"I'm sorry, Eli. I thought you'd already told him, as you promised me you would. I know how much you love him, and I know he loves you as much as you do. I also know how hard this topic is for you, but both you and I know that it'd be best for him to know about this issue before the two of you become official", and she was in fact right. I had promised that if I ever got in a relationship, I would've first told the person about that topic. Although Elijah and I weren't really official - and didn't yet know if we would ever be, or when -, I felt like he should know about this.
"It's my fault, I should've told him about this...I'm sorry", Kate hugged me and told me that it was okay. It looked like he understood, even though he didn't find out about it in the best way possible. We then returned back to Elijah and Patrick.
"Looks like it's time for you to leave", Patrick said, while trying not to cry.
"Yes, it does look like it's time for me to go. Well then-", I immediately grabbed her and pulled her in for a hug.
"I will miss you more than words can say", and I started crying, once again. It was going to be so hard without her, but as long as I had the rest of my friends, I knew I could manage to handle it.
