Sweet Nothing,Sweet Something.

Chapter 22, Forgive me.

I woke up the next day, some how I slept through a day. But I woke up feeling horrible. I stayed in bed for a good minute before I got up,damn it's cold! I put on the random guys sweater, and stumbled down stairs. "How you feelin?" Rayann asked. "Horrible,I don't know why." I said sitting on the couch. "Well luckily Hazel is here." She said. "I want to take your temp." Hazel said holding a thermometer. She took my temp. "Whoa,102." She said. "Why? I don't even get sick." I said. "Anything happen?" Hazel asked. "Aw man,your stupid assistant spilled ice water on me and it was cold in the studio,making me whatever this is." I said. "Honey your sick." Hazel said.

This went on for a week. Today I'm in my same spot on the sofa,in the same sweater,with a sore throat. "How do you feel today?" Hazel asked sitting on the sofa,and Rayann on the couch. "My throat hurts,like mad,and I'm bored." I said. "Well did you call Bryan? You want tea?" Rayann asked. "No,and no thank you. I'll call.. Kevin." I said smiling abit. He picked up on the second ring. "Hello?" He said. "Hello,love." I said. "What's up,Cheryl." He asked." Nothing. What are you doing?" I asked. "Watching NCIS. Sorry not doing anything awesome." He said, I changed the channel to what he was watching. "Who's the pearly whites guy?" I asked. "That Dinozzo,or Tony." He explained. "Who's the Brazilian,and the computer guy, and the old guy who just walked in?" I asked. "That's Ziva,McGee or Tim, and that's Gibbs." He again explained."Oh that guys name is Ducky!" I tried to exclaim. "I think you'll like Abby, you're almost like her." He said chuckling. "Okay,which one is she?" I said thinking she'd be normal. "She's the gothic looking one." He said, once I saw her she immediately became my favorite. "Okay,what's going on in your house?" I asked. "Nothing now, no ones home. Yours?" He asked. "People are here,but you got them into the show." I said,he chuckled. "Can we video chat?" He asked. "Oh I don't want to disappoint,but I'm wearing nothing sexy." I giggled. "Oh well.." He trailed off. "Oh yeah, what are you wearing?" I asked nonchalantly. "Oh regular clothes." He stated. "I'm wearing a sweater,so ha!" I said. "Ooo, how sexy." He said. "Well I am wearing nothing under it and I am in my panties." I said. "W-what?" He asked. "Kidding. But I want to see you." I said truthfully. "I thought you were sick." He said. "Only my throat today." I said. "I'm coming over." He stated quickly hanging up. "A boy is coming over." I said. "Ethan?" Hazel asked. "no. Me and him aren't friends." I said. "Oh are you sure about the tea?" Rayann asked. "I fine." I said.

Kevin was soon sitting very close to me. He explained everything to us about the show. "What Kate Dies?!" Rayann exclaimed. "Ziva kicks ass! Aw Tiva. Tony and Ziva." Hazel said. "Tate was cute too!" Rayann exclaimed. "McAbby. That is truly the most cutest couple to happen." I said. The girls just glared at me.

Bryan joined the party at six o'clock. "And to think I thought this was boring. Gotta love Tiva." Bryan said." Bite your tongue." I said. "What?" He asked. "You struck a nerve." Kevin explained. "No! Tate was cute!" Rayann yelled.

I let Hazel and Bryan sleep in my room,Rayann in her room, and Kevin and I on the sofa.

"Aw,look at the cutie sleep. Wake up,cutie." Bryan said. "Were you eating chocolate?" I asked opening my eyes. "Had a mocha,want one?" He asked. "Caramel. I like the caramel ones." I explained. It was like 1:34. "Can we please watch-" "No, I'm watching the Chew!" Bryan yelled interrupting Rayann.

The doorbell rang at two o'clock, and Bryan answered. "Cheryl, it's for you!" Bryan exclaimed. "Need help?" Kevin asked. I shook by head but he helped me up. And I walked over to the door. "Oh hell no. I am not in the mood." I said seeing Ethan standing there awkwardly. "Wait,wait I want to clear my name. I hurt you and I'm sorry. I just didn't want you getting anymore hurt." He explained a bit. I walked away but he followed me closing the door behind him. "Get more hurt?! Dude if you didn't avoid me I would've gone to work and not go at night and not stay the night there and not have some idiot girl spill ice water in me and I would not be sick And- wait someone stop me." I said it all so quickly except the last part. "I know,and I am very stupid. I only avoided you was because I was afraid you'd get mad and it'd ruin our friendship." He said. "Well we could have talked about it! Do you not understand that?! We could've sat down and talked like normal people,but instead you avoid me! What's the-" I couldn't talk. Like my voice just stopped like I lost it. "I know,and I'm sorry for what I've caused. I'll do anything for our friendship." He said. I ignored him and sat in my spot on the sofa the far left corner. Kevin was now sitting by Bryan. So of course Ethan sit right next to me. Hazel comes up to us she hands Ethan a mocha and me a red slushi! I smiled and happily took a sip. And it gave episode of NCIS full of Abby and in the end she tased a guy! It was awesome. "You like slushi's don't you?" Ethan said smiling at me and my slushi. "Well it's what I've got." I whispered my voice still gone."I should've had the tea yesterday." I added. And I got up. "Well pajama pants are totally hot now." Kevin said remembering yesterday. I just smiled as I went to my room to change. I did change into some normal clothes but it was freezing so I put the male sweater back on and combed my naturally straight hair and sat back down as Hazel gave me another slushi. Then Ethan started chuckling in my ear. "What?" I asked. "You like the new sweater,huh?" He asked. "Sure.. Why?" I asked back. "It's mine." He whispered smiling. "Why'd you give me it?" I asked. "You looked cold. And you just look so adorable with it." He said chuckling and defensively. "You." I said pointing at him. "Are weird." I finished. "I've been told and I've been told that you like it!" He said exclaiming. I opened my mouth to object but I couldn't object to the truth. So I just stopped myself and resumed watching NCIS. I had multiple Slushi's that day and everyone just went along with whatever the situation. "Dinner?" Hazel asked. "Pizza?" One of us suggested. "Chinese?" Kevin suggested. "Yeah. I'm cool with that." We all said in sync. We ordered Chinese,mostly stole each others food but it was still eating even if we didn't eat what we wanted.

Hazel gave me one last slushi,I've had at least 10+ of them,What was she.. Producing them? That'd be weird. "Last one." She told me. I shook off my odd thoughts,and resumed to our conversation. "Whatever,Haz can you help me with my shirt?" Bryan asked. She nodded and they both went to the bathroom just as Kevin and Rayann went to the kitchen. "So.." Ethan started. "Oh god." I muttered. He started to chuckle. " I just want to start over well before the point where we kissed,I'm sorry about that." He stated. "About what?" I asked hoping he'd get the answer right. "For avoiding you." He said his eyes pleading. I hugged him,for I have the a great friend. He hugged back in relief. "Don't leave me again." I said sadly like I was about to cry. "I won't." He said reassuringly. We stopped and got even closer,well my legs were on his lap so yeah I was almost on his lap. "Hey-oh!" Hazel said as Kevin and Rayann came back with popcorn and candy. Individual ones for each of us. Kevin sat next to Bryan who sat next to Hazel who sat next to Ethan who sat next to me. Rayann was being a loner today and she sat over on the couch. "Movie night!!!" Hazel yelled. "What movie?" I asked. "I don't know any so if I vote it hardly counts." Ethan said. " What do you mean?" Rayann asked. "His first movie was evil dead,so he doesn't really watch movies." I explained. We decided to watch titanic,the breakfast club, and for some reason the woman in black. We watched it all in order. Why do I freak out when I watch scary movies it wasn't even scary! "Well... That was weird.. But the other ones were good." Ethan stated. "Let's watch something funny,now." I said. They all looked at me. "Like The Scream movies!" I exclaimed. "Aren't those supposed to be scary?" Ethan asked. "Nah,they're hilarious!" I exclaimed. "Okay but after we're watching hot rod." Hazel said. "With Andy Samberg! That was movie was freaking great!" Kevin said. "This is why he's the man!" Bryan exclaimed. We watched the movies and I laughed my ass off. Ethan chuckled with my laughter. It was great. "Okay you weirdos. I've got work." Hazel said. "I've got school." Rayann said. "Aw can't I stay with Kevin?!" Bryan pleaded. "No he has school! And you have work. You two too! Let's go!" Hazel ordered. Rayann ran upstairs,Kevin ran to his car,and Hazel and Bryan both left. "Wow." Ethan said. "She's mummy what do you expect?!" I said casually. "So Bryan is dad?" He asked. "That's a bad Daddy. Nah. He's the gay brother or step." I said. " and me?" He asked. "You. You're the cute best friend." I said. "Kevin? And Rayann?" He asked. "They don't like each other but Rayann is a sister and Kevin's the brother." I explained further. "So I'm cute?" He asked. "Yeah,well your eyes are great,your dimples are sweet looking,and your ha- wait a minute." I said. "No go on. My hair is what now?" Ethan said smiling like wild. "Shut up!" I exclaimed. "You are beautiful you know. I love those stormy gray eyes,those rose colored lips,and your hazel ish covered hair." He said smiling. "Stop." I said trying not to blush. "Why should I?" He asked. "Because it's too nice. You have work!" I exclaimed. "As do you." He said. "Stop being right." I said. " Nah." He responded shrugging his shoulders. "See you at work you jerk face." I said. He laughed. "Creativity! You've got it girl." He said in a girlish tone. I walked him to my front door. "I will see you tommorrow,right?" I asked leaning and fixing his collar with one hand. "You will. Are you sure you can go after losing your voice?" He asked worried. "I'm fine. It was probably because I yelled." I said messing with the sweater he was wearing. "Don't lose your voice,I hate the quiet at times." He said. "Ha you think I try. How much of you will I see tomorrow?" I asked. "Um what. Like my head,neck,arms.." He said. "I meant it like how much.. Oh said it wrong. How much will I see you?" I re asked. "Hopefully quite a bit." He said. I put my hand on his chest as I said, "Bye,can't wait to see you again." He smiled. "And you think I can. Tsk tsk shame you know me better." He said wiggling a finger in my face. He swiftly hugged me and awkwardly walked away. I feel asleep to Rayann laughing on the other side of the wall god it was annoying. Well I still slept though.
