My Fault

I'm with Gavi.

'Hey.' Gabriel rolls the car window down.

'Hello.' I chuckle and get in the car.

'Surprised you came.' Gabriel chuckles and pulls me in for a hug.

'How comes?' I chuckle and hug Gabriel back.

'Just didn't think you would.' Gabriel looks out the window.

'Why did you think that?' I chuckle.

'Because I thought you were happy with Gavi, and now this is happening. Just a bit confusing.' Gabriel scratches his bed.

'I am happy with Gavi. But you just came in here like hello.' I laugh.

'I've always been an unexpected person. What can I say?' Gabriel chuckles.

'I know. You're just balsy. So balsy.'

'You think?' Gabriel asks.

'I do.' I look down.

After a couple moments of silence, I see Gabriel lean in.

'Um...' I move my head back.

'Oh shit.' Gabriel pulls away and looks down. 'Sorry.'

'I'm with Gavi. I'm sorry, Gab.' I look at him.

'Kris, if you really liked him, you wouldn't be sorry for not kissing me. But it's okay. As I said and will continue saying, I will wait for you. No matter how long it takes.' Gabriel brushes my hair to the side.

'I do like him, Gabriel. Which is why I'm stressed about this situation I'm in. I really am. Because I do genuinely like Gavi and...'

'But you don't love him. Clearly.' Gabriel cuts me off.

'Yeah. I don't, do I?' I chuckle and look at Gabriel.

'Doesn't look like it.' Gabriel chuckles.

******

After about half an hour of me and Gabriel discussing the situation, I thought it was time for me to finally go home and think. Genuinely sit and think. Just for a little while. So many things were being thrown at me all at once, and I didn't know what to do. How to act. And I had to figure it out sooner or later.
