Chapter 58
I felt myself slip of his warm body, onto the cold ground.
I heard the words, " get outa my seat" she said.
Her hands were cold, maybe like her heart at that moment. I was in bliss for a moment... then dragged away.
I hit the floor with a thud.
"Eve what hell!?" I asked angrily, holding my now throbbing back.
" what? You were in my seat" she said causally and sat down again , Noodle had moved over to one side of the couch, leaving room for her to sit in the middle.
I stood up and walked , " fine then... its ok ..." I wandered out the door. " ill just go and be back again".
I closed the door on the way out.
I walked quickly to the bathroom and closed the door, and slumped into a corner.
I couldn't cry, although I wanted to. It just wasn't working for me today. I was just so angry that my friend could do that ... pull me out of my happiness so easily.
I wanted not to be there. I didn't want to watch them be happy together , or compete for his attention. I didn't want to compete for his gaze, or his conversation.
I didn't just want to be his friend, I wanted to be special, and I wanted him to say it to me. Remind me how much he needed me , with a kiss on my forehead. I wanted to be the one he would hug while we listened to punk rock playlists. I wanted to play video games, wrestle , do whatever with him. I just wanted to be the one he thought was better above the rest.
The door creaked open. Felix put his head around the corner.
" hey... you ok there?" he smiled, and opened the door, he sat down next to me.
" I'm fine" I lied.
" no you're not" he said putting his arms around me. His hug was like one from my dad, it made me feel safe and happier. " you've got to toughen up, it's a killer to see a sad girl".
He rubbed my arm.
" yeah? Well I hope deep down he knows how I feel" I mumbled.
" do you really think he does? We're not that great at picking up on small details you know"
" stupid males" I said into his skinny arms, he had put on a lot of muscle in the last few months. " if he knew exactly how I felt , would he still act the same way?"
" who knows" said Felix, " why don't you tell him and find out"
I nearly choked on my own breath , that was the most insane thing I had heard today!
" what!?" I spluttered, " no way haha"
" what? If he doesn't know... why is it his fault if he doesn't even know what he's doing wrong?"
" I guess your right" I mumbled.
He patted my head and moved my clumps of hair out of my eyes.
" there we go" he whispered. " your eyes are pretty special you know that?"
" what? They're just hazel" I said.
" yeah but they're kinda green" he smiled, " come on, the movie will be over soon"
He stood up and gave me hand.
We walked back into the movie room. Connie smiled at me and I sat next to her, she gave me a little hug . That made me feel a little loved.
Time passed and one by one everyone left. Amelia was one of the first and then Eve followed after, the rest of them seemed to leave all at once. Felix went home with his Dad , the weather had cleared up and I was going to walk home.
Then it was just me and him.
I was on the couch behind him, the movie had stopped and there was an awkward silence.
" come over here" he said, he was on his back , length ways on the couch.
" why?" I asked bluntly.
" cause I'm lonely, and you're the only one left" he said, pulling a sweet smile.
What a way to put it nicely... I thought.
" yeah naa, yeah naa, you can come over here" I said, I was laying down on my couch too.
"urghh " he groaned as he heaved himself over the couch and next to me.
I smiled from up on the couch, and poked out my tongue.
He jumped up onto the couch and loomed over me. His arms slid under my back. He scratched his fingers lightly , tickling the back of my torso. He was over me , over my torso.
" stop" I said slowly, I put my hands on his chest.
" naa, I like watching your squirm" he smiled.]
" no.. I mean stop it" I struggled to get the words out of my mouth.
" mmm, were you ok today?" he asked , he stopped the tickling.
" today?"
" yes today, you stormed off to the bathroom, did you and Felix bang or something?" he asked with a grin on his face.
" haha no" I said without smiling. " I was just angry about Eve"
" yeah... what was with that?"
I took my hands of his chest , " she probably didn't like it that you and me were so close..."
" what? Why's that?"
" cause she... don't worry" I mumbled.
Bad idea Nazz, bad idea !
" naaaaa naaaa naaaa, you have to tell me now!" he said. I could feel his fingers begin to twitch again.
