My Fault

One out of a hundred.

'Yeah but like, why you even having that conversation?' Gabriel asks.

'Because she asked me. What did you want me to say? Fuck off?' I ask.

'Yes. I would've wanted you to say that over what you said.' Gabriel nods.

'I literally said yeah the look of him is quite... appealing, but not for me.' I explain.

'Okay Kristen okay.'

'Don't get all upset on me, cause I've had enough. Honestly Gabriel don't try it.' I point my finger at him.

'You know what? If you wanna be with him, go be with him then. I'm not holding you back.' Gabriel gestures towards the door.

'Pass me my phone. I wanna call Eva. Pass me my phone.' I gesture towards the table.

'No why?' Gabriel asks and grabs my phone.

'Because I wanna call Eva. Because honestly if you wanna be that delusional, be that delusional. Not my problem.' I try to grab the phone from Gabriel.

'You know what? Go ahead. Call Eva. I don't care.' Gabriel throws the phone on my lap.

I grab the phone and dial Eva's number.

'Eva?' I talk.

'Yeah?' Eva speaks.

'What did I say to you when you brought Gavi up?' I put the phone on speaker.

'Guys honestly? Gabriel come on man.' Eva realises what's happening.

'No what happened? Tell him. Cause he is dying to know.' I speak.

Gabriel rolls his eyes.

'She's basically just said that she does find him attractive, but he's not for her. That's exactly what she said.' Eva explains.

'Did you hear that?' I bring the phone closer to Gabriel.

Gabriel stays quiet.

'Okay thank you baby. That's all I needed. Love ya.' I end the call.

'Anything you wanna say?' I put the phone down and look at Gabriel.

'Okay fine.' Gabriel shrugs.

'So before you try to put it all on me, remember that I'm not you, okay?' I get up from the couch.

'Come here.' Gabriel grabs my hand and pulls me back onto the couch, and smashes his lips on mine.

'You're just annoying.' a tear drops from my eye.

'I'm sorry I'm sorry.' Gabriel pulls me into a tight hug.

'Okay. Cool.' I get up and head to the bedroom.

'Pfff.' Gabriel sighs and rolls his eyes.

*****

The Bedroom:
'What?' I ask, seeing Gabriel stare at me from the door.

'I'm just happy when we can sort things out.' Gabriel smiles and heads to the bed.

'Yeah Gabriel, I'm glad you're happy. But can you not see we only have these days once every two weeks? It's literally one out of a hundred.' I roll my eyes and curl up in bed.

'I know. I know. I'm sorry. I promise, I'm trying. I'm really trying, Kris.' Gabriel looks into my eyes.

'Trying what?' I ask.

'I'm trying to be a better person for you. That's all I fucking do.' Gabriel's voice breaks.

'I know.' I look down and let a tear escape my eye.

'I love you.' Gabriel pulls me closer to him and pecks my forehead.

'I love you.' I smile.
