Stubbornness

"No! No No!" Kyle had shouted over and over. It scared me slightly. I didn't know what was happening. He was about to throw his iPad down before Zoe rushed in and grabbed his arms. It immediately calmed him down. He had this look in his eyes once he saw Zoe. It was like the world stopped for her. I hated it. I had a feeling everyone knew since Nan was clairvoyant but denied everything she said.

"Y/N, you okay?" She asked, snapping me out of my thoughts. I just smiled and nodded, but Zoe didn't catch on. "I'm sorry, Kyle isn't always like this, you know that."

"no, it's fine. Honestly." An obvious lie, but Zoe just nodded and left. I started to pick up everything that had been broken, mainly some glass before Kyle took my hands. "Hey Kyle, it's alright. I'm s-"

"I'm sorry." He managed to get out. His hands were so soft, and it made me smile holding them. "Not...helpless." I nodded slowly letting him talk, but I sat us on the bed so it was more comfy.

"I'm sorry if I made you upset Kyle." I just said, staring at our hands. There was a soft tension, unlike the regular tension there usually is around the house. This house of witches. It feels wrong for me to be here sometimes. But Kyle was there, and we helped each other. He was wrong, my type of wrong. It just tugged at my heartstrings when I see him with Zoe.

My fingers traced the light veins of his hands that might not even be his, distracted. Kyle must have seen that I was distracted since he lowered his head to meet my eyes. "Y/N?" He asked, softly, making me look up. "It's..okay. Zoe and you are good."

I just sat there for a second, deciphering what he said before smiling again and hugging him close, feeling safe holding him and making sure no one else hurt him. So why did I still feel jealousy? It pained me to see Kyle and Zoe together every time. The way they looked at each other, and how he smiled at her, how she kept him safe. I wanted that. I wanted to help him, so he could help me. His smile while being around her, made me feel angry, but I pushed it down for my best friend. "Stubborn."

"Huh?"

"You're stubborn."

"Did Madison say that to you?" I chuckled. We had somehow moved into a cuddling position, but he didn't seem uncomfortable with it at all he looked as if Madison tried to cuddle him. But he shook his head, looking down at me. His eyes had that same shine. It felt wrong. To want to let him kiss me, but it just seemed like he also wanted to kiss me.

That's why he called me stubborn. Because I wanted him so bad, but I denied it for months and months because he is so happy with Zoe, and Zoe is the best version of herself around him. The quiet tension still hung in the air, and nothing felt right. Our eyes danced around, and Kyle moved his hand from my waist to my chin. Was he going to give in? I didn't want him to, I'd lose my best friend at crush at the same time.

"Love,,y-you."

"I know you do Kyle, I love you too."

Kyle shook his head again. Oh. He meant it like that. I let out an awkward giggle as I just moved my head down to his chest and leaned on him. Instead of pushing it, he placed a kiss on my head, rubbing my back gently as he did so.
