Oblivious

Chapter 15: Why Wait?

"Oh no," Mini said as walked over to me.

Wildcat didn't seem to care too much as he got up for his turn.

"No no no, it's fine," I tried to shield my eyebrow with my hand from him, but he eventually moved it and stared at my eyebrow.

I heard Tyler knock some pins over, then curse under his breath as he missed 3 pins.

I sat there awkwardly, not wanting to make eye contact this close, so I was looking around the bowling alley, not knowing what to say or do.

Wildcat finished his turn and waited for his ball.

"I'll go get napkins," He says, calmer than I thought he would, and stands up. Tyler walked back to his seat, looking smug.

"Good fucking job Mini," I heard Tyler mutter with a grin as Craig walked past him.

Craig stared at Tyler as he kept walking past, but didn't say anything. I hope he didn't feel guilty.

Technically I stepped onto the lane, making myself slip.

"But it's Mini's turn!" Nogla whined impatiently.

"It's just napkins Nogla!" Vanoss laughs.

I drift off into my own world, after pax, at Mini's apartment.

I was his girlfriend and he just finished playing a videogame with his friends, when I told him to go to bed. He listened and got up, only to stop in front of me and stare at my eyebrow.

"You look badass with that scar," He gently ran his thumb over my healed eyebrow.

I smiled at him, and I could see the tiredness on his face, so I suggested we go to bed. Suddenly he picks me up bridal style and carries me to bed where he gently puts me down, and plops next to me, falling asleep.

"See Nogla, He's already on his way back!" Vanoss said, snapping me out of my fantasy. I felt embarrassed about what I was thinking, even though no one knew.

I looked up at Mini who was rushing through the crowds, holding hella napkins.

I smile at how caring he was being. But maybe he was just worried I would sue him or something.

"Here ya go," He gently smiles, and places the napkins in my lap, there must've been about thirty.

"Thanks," I look down and grab a napkin, slowly putting it on my already stinging eyebrow.

"It's your turn for Christ sake!" Nogla says to Mini.

Craig twists to look at him, then the board, and back to me, before he walked up to the lane with his ball.

My mind started racing through thoughts. I needed to balance out the amount of drama with happiness. I'm such a buzzkill right now and I don't even mean to be.

I exchange my soaked napkin with a fresh one and apply it to my eyebrow.

I push harder on my eyebrow, praying for the bleeding to stop. I heard pins being knocked over and cheers from the guys.

"Wow a strike?" David says as he stands up for his turn.

"Are you happy now that you get to throw your potato?" Vanoss asked.

"Hell yea!" He runs up to the lane and places his ball on the floor. Before any of us knew what was going on, he sat down behind it and pushed it with both of his hands, like a kid would.

We all laughed at him as he stood up. Surprisingly, he knocked 2 pins over. As he stood up, waiting for his ball to return on the conveter belt, Mini sat down next to me.
