"Oh my God, so I got April this awesome glasses holder that folds out into a mirror so she can do her makeup in it, and guess what? It also doubles as a lipstick holder! How freaking genius is that? Aren't I like, the best gift giver ever?"
Flashwad Thompson jumped up and down as we strolled down the New York street, the Christmas lights from yesterday's affairs still gleaming in hopes of a better tomorrow. And I can only agree with the twinkles, the way Flash's excitement is coursing through me making me smile even though I have absolutely nothing to do with his girlfriend's gift.
He and April have been dating for nearly a month, really since Thanksgiving. And honestly, it's the cutest thing ever. The cutest thing ever until I'm woken up in the middle of the night, wishing that I had some type of superpower to silence the thumping coming from Flash's bedroom when April spends the night.
Yea, so, I spend most of my nights at Flash's apartment now.
For... reasons. Obvious ones, I believe.
But the consistent thumping noise that comes from Flash's room at odd hours of the night only leaves me to wish I could just get my shit together and spend more time at Parker's place. Peter Parker, if that wasn't clear.
His name is a touchy subject, so we've all just commenced to calling him Parker. I think it's also sort of a omen to how Flash bullied him in high school, something that both Flash and April begged me to let them do when they found out what happened.
I still have most of my belongings at Parker's, but I try to stay away as much as I can. It was evident when he practically kicked me out of his room after we had sex that he needed some distance. So, I gave it to him.
I packed up some of my shit and called Flash, asking him if he still had a spare bedroom he'd mentioned only once before.
And he didn't even hesitate to agree, telling me that I'm always welcome in his home. Now, I'm sort of wishing he'd kick me out so he and April can continue their nighttime rendezvous and I'll have a reason to properly face Parker.
Not that he's tried to get in touch with me either. He hasn't left any calls, hasn't knocked on Flash's apartment-- though I'm sure he'd easily find it-- and he hasn't reached out at all. I think it's only fair that I do the same, keep to myself and continue on with my life.
But I have to admit that I miss him. This past month has been absolute hell on me, especially when I didn't even hear from my dad during Thanksgiving, forcing me to spend it with Flash and April. Don't get me wrong, I loved Friendsgiving with the blossoming couple, but the fact that my own father hadn't even tried to get in touch with me about it hurt more than Peter hurt me.
And I still haven't heard from him, not even the day after Christmas.
We always spend Christmas together since mom passed. And now my birthday is coming up, and I'm certain I won't hear from him then either.
