Love in progress

Part 1

It started with a kiss, but was it right? Chris slowly backed away and looked confused up at Abby "why, why would you do that?." Chris looked confused down at the ground in a hurry. "I thought that was what you wanted" Abby said, clearly hurt by Chris's reaction. She felt a mix of disappointment and worry, she truly thought Chris liked her back, that they would at least react decent to Abby kissing them, especially after the night at Sarah's. It was a sleepover, Chris, Abby, Sarah, and a few of their friends including Hannah, Stacey, Megan and Luisa. They had all been drinking to much except Chris of course, they liked to be in control, they needed to remember everything, think closely about every move they made, and alcohol wouldn't exactly help that case. They just sat there, looking at the drunk girls talking and having fun, especially at Abby. They looked at her hair, her eyes, her lips. Abby was always the loudest, the most outgoing, Chris loved that about her, they loved the way Abby talked, the way she always waited for them in front of their locker after every single class and they just loved the way Abby looked at them, she always hold eye contact for a long time without making Chris feel uncomfortable.

Chris looked around at the girls, all they could think about was Abby and how straight all the other girls looked. "lets play truth or dare" Hannah said in a playful voice, "but we're only girls here, OH SORRY and Chris" Chris hated being misgendered all the time but what did they expect, all their friends are as straight as a ruler, the most they've ever leaned about gender identity was in that one class where the teacher talked about the gender spectrum for like a minute, and then moved on to heterosexual sex. Chris just started laughing uncomfortable, the others following except Abby who looked worried over at Chris. "lets just play truth or dare alright?" Sara almost yelled, Chris thought Sarah was so annoying when she was drunk, she would always yell at everyone and try to convince people that she had sex with all the boys on the football team, of course everyone knew she lied, it was only Luisa that was that big of a slut.

Hannah took a bottle from the kitchen while the others sat down forming a circle on the floor. "aren't this a bit childish" Megan said as the boring bitch she is. "Megan what are you talking about! You can never be to old for truth or dare, stop being so uptight" Abby said loudly in a giggle. Megan looked annoyed down at the ground quietly. Sarah took the bottle and spined it around, seconds after it landed on Stacey, "okay Stacey truth or dare??" Sarah yelled as always, everyone looked at Stacey as she said dare, Hannah then said "you need to kiss the next person the bottle lands on. The girls started to giggle while Chris just smiled awkwardly. Stacey Laughed and then spun the bottle as fast as she could, everyone looked exited at the bottle as it spined, then stopped. It landed on Abby, Chris looked disgusted at Abby and Stacey, they weren't really going to kiss, were they? No, why would they, its stupid, Chris was in a slight panic but quickly snapped out of it when they saw Stacey moving toward Abby, Stacey slowly sat down in front of Abby while giggling. Chris and Abby then caught eye contact, Abby looked uncomfortable as Stacey placed her hands on Abby's face. Within a second Chris yelled "NO STOP", everyone including Abby looked at Chris confused, and Chris was just as confused as them, why did i say that? It was embarrassing, they thought. They looked around at the girls and then made eye contact with Abby, "this game is fucking childish, I think we should do something else", Abby was still looking at them with a small smile forming on her face "yeah Chris is right, lets just watch a movie or something" she said looking at Sarah. Chris finally relaxed, they even smiled a bit, that was rare cause they were living the emo lifestyle.

The girls and Chris sat down on the couch and started looking for a movie to watch Chris was sitting in the corner of the couch as Abby sat down next to them, then they started the movie. Midways into the movie Chris tried to not look over at Abby, they had starred at the screen for the last hour of the movie trying not to look at Abby, but they needed to, just one glance of her face. They slowly turned their head toward Abby. Shit, Abby was looking at them, directly in the eyes, Chris began to sweat, they could look away and Abby sure as hell wasn't planning to either. Abby slightly smiled at Chris, but then they heard a loud bang in the movie, they both looked back at the screen in a hurry. Abby tried making eye contact with Chris again when the dramatic part of the movie was over, but Chris just looked nervously at the Tv. Abby saw Chris's hand laying casual on their thigh, she slowly moved her hand upon Chris's hand, Chris quickly looked down at their hands at the touch, then up at Abby, and then back at the screen without moving their hand one bit. Abby was holding in her laughter as she turned her head towards the tv.
