The Golden Flame (A Fireoiny Story)

CHAPTER TWO: Annoyance

Coiny's POV:

I arrived home and immediately started ranting to Pin about Firey. She was my best friend, someone I could trust with anything!! However, she could be a bit rude at times. I didn't mind it, I knew she never meant harm!

[🪙: I just don't get it, I haven't done shit to him, yet he hates me
📌: Cut his some slack, I'm sure he had a reason
📌: I mean, you are pretty annoying sometimes..]

I quickly sat up on my bed and quickly texted [I AM NOT!!] to her.

I know I am annoying at times, but I doubt Firey hates me JUST because of that. I get not liking me because of it, but hating me? That's a bit much, don't you think?

I set my phone down beside me and started to zone out, looking at a random patch of my carpet. I could feel the vibrations coming from my phone, but I couldn't move, I was too lost in the thought of why Firey hated me so much. Hell, I don't even know why I care so much!! So what if he was my childhood best friend? He hated me!

Did I hate him in return? Yeah, obviously I do. I started thinking about it,, do I hate him..?? He's annoying. The fact that I can't stop thinking about him is annoying. Our old friendship was annoying. I hate this. Didn't understand anything, but I wanted to. I want to grab Firey and ask him why he hates me. I can't.. if I do, it'll only show that I don't hate him and that I care. He'll make fun of me for it.

I snapped out of my trance and picked up my phone. All the notifications were just Pin ranting about me being annoying.

I placed my phone back down and stood up. I couldn't get the thoughts out of my head. Firey hates me.. why? And why don't I feel like I hate him the same?? I walked to my closet and opened a box in the corner, taking out a big book. A photo book.

I flipped through the pages, with the first few just being baby pictures of me. Then I found it. Firey. Not just him, but us. Before anything happened between us. We were inseparable. We did everything together. People would look at us and tell our parents we would stay friends for our whole lives and that we should cherish that. But they were wrong.

After flipping for what seemed forever, I found the first picture I took without Firey after a while. I seemed,, sadder. I looked tired, my smile was smaller, and my eyes were blank. I was devastated.. but why? I was so young. I don't even remember why I was sad. This is so annoying. I closed the book.

I played on the floor, staring off into the ceiling, thoughts running everywhere. I was annoyed, yet upset. Why did I even care so much, I barely even remember our friendship! I felt like crying. I didn't understand what I was feeling, I didn't understand anything!!

I desperately tried to hold myself together, but I was slipping from my own finger.

“..I want a hug..” I sighed out. My voice is shaky, and tears rolling down my cheeks. I tightly hugged myself, but I didn't scratch the itch.

Coiny. Curled up on the floor crying. Just because he was annoyed. And because of stupid Firey, too. Pathetic.

The next thing I knew, I woke up. I had passed out from exhaustion and annoyance. I lost track of time, but the sun wasn't up. I slowly stood up, still hugging myself and waddling to my bed. I lay down, wrapping myself around my blanket.

I didn't want to think about him again. Yet tomorrow, I'll have to see him again. I just slept.. I was too annoyed to think about it.
