"Ah!" Luke screamed.His pants were on the floor. His hands over is secret area. His boxers around his ankles.
"Oh my god! I am so sorry I didn't....wow!" I responded.
"Your acting like you've never seen me naked." He retorted. I cant say that's not a lie. We had sex like 2 or 3 times, but I've never seen 'it' directly in front of me.
"Well you normally are under covers. So... I didn't expect..."
"It to look like this." There he goes completing my sentences. He always looked good even if it was awkward seeing him naked, I have to say I do like him. I no longer love him. Especially with what happened no less than 2 weeks ago.
"Put some clothes on." Before he could come up with some weird idea of us regenerating our love. "Now! No exceptions." He picked up his boxers leaving his bare skin clothed. He grabbed the pair of black skinny jeans from the pack of clothing we brought with us when we left the mall. The emo style will never go out at this point. He put no shirt on. This left his chiseled muscles open and bare. "Where's your shirt?" I really don't want to see him like this. Making me attracted to him.
"I put on pants. It's either my chest showing or my..."
"- Fine!" I sat right on the bed. Or whatever this floating soft eggshell thing was.
"Hey you didn't barge in for nothing. What do you need?" He made no contact with my skin. For some reason I'm craving it. I crave his touch, his love, his muscles, the way he talks to me, the he loves....loved me. That thought makes my face fall. "Are you okay!" Luke could obviously see the change very quickly. That was the last ting I wanted.
"I'm fine." I needed to change the subject. "Why didn't you tell me I died?"
"What are you talking about, Alice?"
"You know. Alicia dying. Me. Dying!"
"Look..."
"Don't lie to me Luke!" I was choking on tears. I really had no plan to do this. "I read the bio of me okay! I died, didn't I."
"Yeah..."
"And you didn't tell me. Not even in this important week. I look at you and all you see is this pathetic, lonely girl. Don't you!"
"NO! I would never think of you like that. I love you and you know that."
"Just why haven't you told me yet?"
Luke was now passing back and forth. "I wasn't allowed to. I really was going to tell you. I was just afraid you would freak out and...I don't know try to find your real mom then Ill have to say that she died. I really don't like those talks." He sat on the bed again. He put his arm around me. His touch made me flinch slightly. I put my head on his shoulder. "I don't know much about mine either."
"Wanna know something funny?" I changed the conversation.
"What?" He laughed. He was obviously surprised by my change of attitude and conversation.
"Well...I know Silent's real name." I was teasing. I really cant help myself.
"Silent? Oh yeah...your...boyfriend." Boyfriend? really I wouldn't even call me and him that. Yes we almost did something we regretted, but I would call him my boyfriend. I've only had 1 real boyfriend and it lasted a month and a half. He was sort of sporty. He listened to Rock and he and I were more like best friend that had kissed, made out, and had sex once. Am I slut? That's what they called when me and Blake, the guy I dated, broke up. He didn't like it. Mostly because he sort of pressured me. He kept telling them to stop calling that, but they never listened. Silent has never been consideration in my mind as a boyfriend. Well not yet at least. No never. He was my type but emotionally I felt him more as little replacement crush. The conflicting feeling was gone now.
