AMANDA
"YOU KNOW IT'S imperative for me to know if you're in any relationship with Amanda. We both know how stupid of a decision that would be. You know very well what's at stake here." She said sounding equally annoyed. But with so much grace it felt like a playful scolding. It was like she was flirting with him. The witch!
Stop exaggerating! Now is really not the best time to be jealous.
Scolding myself didn't feel like flirting at all. I had so many questions. None of which I Iiked the answers.
What the hell is Samantha doing here at this time of the night anyway?
I had told her to ask Kyle her questions but I never meant that same day. We were so engrossed in each other I didn't even get a chance to warn him. I prayed she didn't tell him that she talked to me first. I meant to tell him when I got here but I didn't get the chance. Hopefully we didn't pay for my mistake.
"For the last time Samantha, nothing is going on between Amanda and I! Damn!"
He whisper yelled through clenched teeth, probably so I wouldn't hear him from his room. Too late. I thought to myself at the same time my heart did a nose dive to the pit of my stomach.
It's okay. We both know that's not true.
"You should stop listening to whatever people say next time. There never really was anything in the first place and there never will..." He continued already at his wit's end. I clutched my chest to stop the painful thudding of my heart.
He's only trying to get Samantha off our backs. It's what we both wanted.
I did the same thing for crying out loud!
The hypocrisy tasted bitter in my mouth it was sickening.
"I'm not that stupid okay. Nothing matters more to me than this." I stumbled away from the door, trying so hard, but unsuccessfully, to stop the tears staining my cheeks.
He doesn't mean it!
He doesn't mean it!
He doesn't mean it!
He doesn't mean it!
I kept saying over and over in my head. Although I knew that was true, I just couldn't ignore the pain in my heart. That was true. It hurt hearing him say that. I was very much aware that we had both decided to hide our relationship. It wasn't logical of me to feel bad about him protecting the two of us but I did.
"Good. For your sake, I hope you're telling the truth Kyle. And I hope it stays that way."
"We've already talked about this before remember? When have I given you any reasons to doubt my loyalty Samantha? You have absolutely nothing to worry about. That's what I told you."
"Yes. And I said I never doubted it. I guess I didn't at that time." It was quiet for a moment.
"It's late as you can see Samantha. We've both got an early morning tomorrow." He said stealthy kicking her out.
