Science of Owls

favorite friend...

Chapter 43 

" you, because you're one of my best friends" he said.

I gave him a suspicious eyebrow, " and... no one else is?". I looked up at him expecting the worst answer.

" well... yeah , I mean they all had sport too. And I thought that at least you were fun" he smiled and ruffled my hair into my eyes.

" spppppppfffff" I spluttered. " ok, I had a different idea here"

" and that would be?" he asked, I could see his brain ticking over .

" nothing" I smiled. I knew what he was going to ... tickle it out of me...

" sure, I'm sure your artistic imagination is vivid"

" mmm" I pondered, telling him was probably a bad- He began to run his fingers through my hair. This sent a shiver down my spine. My body lit up with a tingling sensation, and my skin went into a goose bumps frenzy!

" care to share?" he asked again.

" your evil" I grinned, he could see the pure enjoyment on my face. For some reason rubbing my head softly was like a drug to me.

" keep going" he insisted, he lent down , as I seemed to have lost my voice in the process.

" well I thought for a moment I was special... you know, maybe your favourite" I trailed off, his face was so close to mine. It was killing me.

" well you are my favourite" he said, and stoped rubbing my head. " my favourite friend. I can talk to you for no good reason"

" ahh" I said... my hopes just crushed into the dirt.

" so this makes you numb does it?" he smiled.

" urgh... no ?" I said, maybe a bit too sarcastically.

" because that's why you look half asleep?" he laughed. He put his hand next to his groin... which was basically right next to my head.

" mmmm, shut up" I winced. Our movie was nearly finished. I could see his features outlined in the light from the movie. His eyes reflecting the screen ... so technically I was still watching.

I could see his lips outlined in the light. Without hesitation or time to think, I reached up slowly and traced my fingers against his lips. He pursed them instantly , looking down at me confused.

" shhhh, I just wanna touch" I whispered.

" why?"

" to see if I'm right drawing them like I have" I said, I didn't mean that!

I take it back!

" oh ... right then"

" mmm" , I continued to trace them lightly.

Some parts of them were smooth and subtle, the others were a little dry and hard.

" are you right there?"
