Holding On (Before You Exit Fan Fic)

Chapter 3

I am dazed. My head is spinning, I think I'm gonna be sick.

I can't move my body, it seems that I am paralyzed.

"I love you, Katherine."

The words are still floating in my mind.

Why would he say that? He's my best friend. The person who really knows me a lot aside from Connor. Yes, of course he'll say that to me because we're best friends, best buddies. We love each other.

But something bothers me with the way he said it or 'typed' it.

The way he called me Katherine instead of Kate. Everybody calls me Kate except Daniele and my teachers at school.

So, does that mean he's serious?

Because he seems like he's serious.

I don't know.

No, Kate. He's not serious. He barely mean it when he said it.

It's just an ordinary 'I love you' that you say to your friend or best friend. You're just showing your affection. Riley is just showing is affection to me as my best friend.

So he can't be serious about it.

Besides, when did Riley get to be so serious about anything?

I'm laughing at that thought.

"Kate, you're just overreacting." I muttered to myself. I smacked myself in the forehead.

When everything seems to function to its normal state (I can move my body now, I don't feel dazed anymore) I glanced at the clock at my bedside table.

It's already 3:00AM in the morning.

And now I can't go back to sleep, I don't feel sleepy anymore.

Riley this is all your fault.

Wow, did I just blame Riley for this? No, I blame myself for this. For overreacting.

Since I'm kinda thirsty I decided to go downstairs to grab some water. I grabbed a glass and filled it with water. I leaned in the kitchen counter while drinking and staring at nothing. I don't know what was I thinking at the moment, it seems like my brain is not with me and decides to go somewhere.

I was thinking of something of what should I eat for breakfast tomorrow I mean later when my phone suddenly beeped.

I was knocked out of my thoughts and took my phone from my pocket. I was kinda expecting it's a text from Riley explaining everything but it's just a twitter notification. I was going to ignore it but chose not to since I hadn't open my twitter since forever and I wanna be updated with the other people around the world.

I opened the twitter app and wait. I have lots I mean lots of interactions. If my interactions is a bag, the bag will explode due to the number of clothes that was inside.

I noticed that I gained followers since the last time I opened my account. I checked my profile to see that the last time I opened my account was last October last year and it's already May. Wow, has that been that long?

I guess, I am not really into social networking sites. I barely check my Facebook account.

Jeez, I need to update more often.

I feel sorry for not being active on twitter for so long so I tweeted.

"@KateAmbler: Hadn't been here for a while. I feel sorry for not being active. So, what's up? :)"

After I tweet that, it suddenly hit me.

It's 3AM in the morning. People are sleeping so they won't see that tweet. So I will be talking to a brick wall.
