~Highschool~Madeleine x Espresso

chp 7-Small Talk-

Expresso POV

I kept walking,I knew it was gonna be about yesterday so I pretended to not hear him and even walked faster.Of course this didn't work and he ran up to me and grabbed my wrist.His grip was really strong it actually really hurt,It made me realize how much stronger he is which kinda scared me but I didn't worry much about it.

"Let my wrist go!",I yelped slightly when he grabbed my wrist so I was slightly embarrassed."I need to talk to you!"He said.

"Well you don't have to graph my wrist to do that"I yelled at him.

He looked down and saw that he infact was holding on tightly to my wrist and quickly let go and apologize,He seemed the be embarrassed.

"ah sorry Expresso!"He said.

"Ok,,What do you wanna talk about?"I ask,Knowing exactly where this conversation will go.

"Uhm yesterday you never answered me,My question?"He asked.

"huh?"

"The question about the divorce?"

"What do you mean I remember no such thing?"

"Uhm well yesterday I asked why your parents for a divorce?"

"oh uhmm-"crap what do I say to this??

"Uh they did-They did not love eachother anymore"I say. DEAR GOD IT WAS SO OBVIOUS I WAS LYING

"Ah so that's why?"He asked and I just nod fastly.He stopped in his tracks and grabbed my wrist again pulling me back and making me Trip and land on his chest.

I felt my face best up as I quickly tried to back up but ended up tripping again and Madeleine caught me and helped me up.

Well I was busy processing what happened he asked me something but I didn't even hear him do to how flustered I felt.

"Expresso?"He asked.

"Uh yeah?"I asked.

"I asked if that was really the truth or not,By the ay you acted,,I assume there is another reason?Can I know?"He asked.

"Uh no you can't"

FUCK WHY DID I SAY THAT

"UH I just mean it's not that important is all"I say,Trying to save it.

"Is something bothering you Expresso?"He asked.

I stayed slient cause something had been bothering me, Tommorow I would have to go to my dad's,god was I not excited.

"Expresso?you there?"He asked again.

I nod and just sigh-"Uh yeah but it's nothing much,Nothing to worry about"I said as we continued walking.

"Can I know?"He asked

God he was so damn nosey

"Why?"I asked him."I don't know I just wanna know"He said.I knew if I did t tell him the truth he wouldn't leave me about it intell the end of the school year so I decided to tell him,I just won't go into much detail about it!
"Uhm,,- on Wednesday and weekends I have to go to my father's"I told him.He stopped walking and looked at me.I stopped walking too but refused to look at him."Do you two not have the best relationship?"He asked me and I nod."Us two never really got along"I told him.

"Do you care if I ask why?"He asks."uhm abunch of reason but mainly cause- Eh I'll tell you a different time-"I tell him,I didn't wanna tell him not yet,What if he thought it was weird or something?

"Alright Expresso whatever makes you more comfortable, I'll wait"He said.I felt a smile creep on myself but I quickly realized and basically yelled at myself for smiling at something stupid like that.

"Uh yeah"I say to him."Does you two not getting along have to do with the divorce?"He asks."Like I'd tell you"I say with a small chuckled-"Yeah I suppose"He answers."Well to answer your question,,Yeah it does,Matter a fact one of the main reason for the divorce is because of the thing I won't tell you"I say to him-"Wow Expresso you are really opening up to me,Does this mena we are friends again?"He asks with a stupid smile on his face.

"Oh shut it,This doesn't mean anything"I say to him and he just chuckles some.

Just then we see the school,We walked the whole way together and it was nice to be honest."Wanna walk to school together more often?"He asks as if he read my mind."Uh sure whatever-"I say.We walk into the school and we both head off into different directions.
