Maybe in the parallel universe

Chapter 11

Grace's POV

Late 2018

I finish my classes and head to where Lily and Saint are. 

I hope Saint has bought me my chocolate mousse or I am gonna send him to his grave today.

I see Saint and Lily on the bleachers watching the University basketball match. They are  leaning on each other and I see Saint bushing away Lily's hair off her face. 

They both have this twinkle in their eye. I can't explain. 

Like Midas when he sees gold? No that's greed.

Like  when Joker sees Batman? you know that gleam, right? But it's not that either

It's like he found his muse. 

But why do I feel this dull pain in my chest?

It hurts. 

"Did I just parade in on  lovers romantic date?" I ask. 

Lily and Saint turn and look at me with a welcoming smile and Saint shifts to make space for me between him and Lily.

"No, you move this way, I will sit here" and I shove both of them closer and make space next to Lily and sit there. Don't want to be closer to Saint just now. 

"Here is your mousse, Madam" saint says as he hands over the chocolate mousse to me. 

"Thanks" I say as I try to sound as friendly as possible by dragging the s. 

"You both look so cute together. I hope you never catch the bad eye." I say looking at them.

"Oh Shut up, Grace! You and Saint are my ship. It's what I have named as  Graint. Saint and I will be a Silly. Ahhh. My ears are going to bleed at the sound of this. Silly is so bad. Ehew, You both are my jam. Isn't this a sign from the above or what?" Lily argues. 

"Lily, Look at both of you. You are even blushing like a Rose. Romance is in the airrrr." I sing nudging Lily. Lily pushes me away and shoves Saints back to his seat who was leaning on Lily's seat. 

Saint just shrugs but he looks like he is so happy with all the teasing. 

I feel like I am coming in between the two who like each other. I feel Lily and saint are holding back because of me. I know Saint likes Lily. He has told me multiple times when I confronted him. He will never take the first step because of me. He won't let me feel left out. 

I asked him once why he won't ask Lily out. He shrugged and said it isn't happening. Time is not right.  

When will there be ever a perfect time? He is dumb. 

Just do what you are supposed to do so that I cant quit having these feelings for you.

So I quit feeling like a home wrecker. 

So I quit feeling  jealous when I see you and Lily together and tease you both to ease the situation. Let me accept the situation. Don't make me live in this uncertainty. 

I feel like I am drowning without knowing how to swim. 

Put an end to this misery, Saint.
