"Love is a serious mind disease."

This is the second most painful thing that has ever happened to me.
"Hi, Nice to meet you." I greeted the blonde infront of me. Red's arm was around her waist and they were smiling from ear to ear.
"Hi, Greene. Nice to meet you too. Jared has told me a lot about you." she gave me a genuine smile.
We were inside the pizza place and Red was ushering us- well he was ushering the girl and I just followed- to the table near the window.
When Red and I went inside, a girl almost immediately hugged him.Her blonde hair was was upto her back and was curled at the ends. She had her full make up on making her look like a make-up model or something.
She was clinging to Red like he was the last pizza on Earth.
"It's actually Athena." I told her. I was trying my best to stop myself from grabbing the metal chair I was sitting on and hitting myself with it in the face so I could bleed to death and just die right there.
Two things Greene; one,she seems nice and two, you can't just waste a good chair on your hideous face.
I also need to stop sounding bitchy.
"Oh. I'm sorry." she fluttered her eyelids "I just got so used to Jared calling you Greene in his stories."
"It's fine." I smiled half-heartedly."I didn't get your name sorry."
"Proper introduction is a must, right?" Red sat beside the blonde. They were both across me."Greene, this is Chelsea."
"It's Chelsea Roxas. Roxas with an 'x' but you pronounce it like an 'h' "she giggled.
Oh-kay. Noted: Roxas with an 'x'.Now that she's infront of me and not pushed to Red's side I could totally notice the major humps infront of her. And the fact that she's wearing a low-neck top doesn't seem to help the eyes of wolves aka men around us from lingering seconds longer at that part.
You go girl!
I should really stop judging Chelsea. It's not her fault she has the whole world infront of her. No pun intended.
"So Athena, what have you been up to?" Chelsea suddenly asked like we were long lost bestfriends.
Oh nothing much. Just having a secret project involving being a lab rat and living together with a cocky guy but most recently I have been trying not to cry my eyes out because I just found out that the love if my life has a busty girl for a girlfriend. That's all.
"Nothing much." I shortly answered.
"Greene has a very exciting life." Red smirked "She spends her day watching Supernatural."
"Oh. I know that show." Chelsea butted in "It's the show with that hot brothers right?"
I nodded. Oh she does know.
"Salvatore brothers right?" she looked at me.
Red was holding a laugh. He knew how I hated the Winchesters being mistaken for another pair of hot brothers.
"That's a different show, love."
Don't call her that. I mean you can, just not infront of me. It seriously hurts.
"Sorry." she looked at me but she shifted her gaze towards my back and her face went from a sweet girl act to bitch mode on.
"Hey. You guys seem to be having fun. Can I join in?"
Red's expression immediately changed when he saw who was talking.
My back was turned but I could tell who the person was just by hearing his voice.
"You missed me?" Chase sat beside me and held my hand.
I don't know why but I felt relieved by what he did.
"What are you doing here?" Red asked in gritted teeth.
"Relax, Jared." Chase looked at me smirking while Red looked confused. He was probably thinking how on Earth this guy knows his real name. "I just happen to be passing by when I saw this lovely lady." Chase said while looking at Chelsea.
Chelsea looked surprise but that didn't last long as she smirked at Chase and did the universal flirt action for girls- she twirled a strand of hair.
I thought wrong of you Bitch.
What was bothering me was that Red was mad not because Chase was hitting on his girlfriend or because Chelsea was flirting back but because of the fact the Chase was still holding my hand.
"I told you not to touch her!" Red slammed his palms to the table. It caught a lot of attention.
"Calm down babe." Chelsea soothed Red's chest but Red just shrugged it off.
"Yeah. Calm down babe." Chase is obviously taunting Red more.
"Let's go Athena." Red commanded
"What about me?" Chelsea pulled Red's arm when he was about to stand up.
"C'mon Chase." I grabbed Chase's arm.
"What? Are you serious Athena?" Red asked incredulously.
"I thought your name's Forrest? I didn't know your real name's Chase." Chelsea said clearly amused.
"I thought you were a bitch. That I surely know." Chase blankly said making Chelsea angrier.
"You're making a scene. You need to release heat. He needs to go." I gestured to Chase. "I'm fine, I'll call you later." I added. "Just, stay with your girlfriend." I told Red.
"If he needs to leave, why are you coming with him then?" it was evident that he was trying to hide the anger in his voice.
"Because I need to release heat too." Chase smirked and eyed Red.
You're making it worse for godsake.I hurriedly pulled Chase up.
Before we could get to the door, Chase turned around and faced Chelsea.
"I hate to break it to you doll but you weren't the lovely lady I was talking about a while ago."
He turned around and interlocked our fingers.Now he was the one pulling me.
******
"Let's do the project now." I told Chase.
We were currently in his car. I told him to drive as far away as possible from that stupid pizza place. I think I'll hate pizza from now on. Just kidding, I couldn't do that to my babies.
"Calm down, woman." he laughed "Are you sure? Don't say that just because of what happened in the tinted haven."
"I'm pretty sure." I don't know how I will be able to face Red from now on. "But I need to alter one rule."
"That's not fair, Tee. We agreed to the---"
"We'll have to stay at your place for the month." I cut him off.
How's it feel to be cut off huh punk?
I could tell he was surprised by what I said. He didn't think I'd say that. Well Chase Forrest, lucky you I am a woman full of surprises.
"You do know that by changing the rules, inevitably, I would change one too." He stopped the car in red light.
"Oh yeah? Which one?" I faced him.
"Rule three" He raised his free hand and caressed my cheek. "No physical contact."
My mind was weirdly playing a song in my head.
Boom Clap the sound of my heart the beat goes on and on and on and on and on and on..........
