After the incident with Josh we both went back into the living room like nothing happened. It was surprisingly easy to forget as long as I didn't look at Josh or Matt. Matt avoided me like the plague. I wanted to talk to him about what happened, but he was too drunk by then. Eventually he passed out. Josh ended up out not long after him. Chris was already out before I even left the kitchen. Ashley raided the fridge and wound up on the floor in the kitchen. Beth, Sam and I brought her into the room with the rest of the passed out patrons. It was one by one after that. Most exciting thing that happened after the Josh thing was the Ashley fiasco that about through my back out in the process. Me and Beth were the last ones to bed.
"He likes you, you know? if He won't won't come out and say it, I will." she says out of nowhere.
After the last one, Mike, was out Beth and I had poured ourselves another drink. I was happy to sip away in silence, but Beth never liked the quiet like I did.
I don't say anything. I feared if I did I might let what hammered in the kitchen slip.
I heard her giggle and pour another drink. I'm pretty sure she's close to drunk. Our maybe she's made it to the finish line.
"I'm rooting for you." She cheered with her hands in the air line a cheerleader, because apparently she thinks I need the visual.
I about choke on my drink. Beth never talks about my crush on her brother. I always thought she either didn't care or didn't want it to happen.
"You don't have to say anything. I know. I've always known. I actually use to think that was the only reaction you liked me."
I put my hands in the air, ready to refute that.
"But you've struck around, and you put up with me so I figured out a long time ago you were real." She was laughing at my reaction.
"I don't trust a lot of people, Charlie. I'm not like you. I don't put my confidence into people. But I, in you." She grabs on to my arm and places her head on my shoulder. "With everything. Especially with Josh's heart." She shrugs and yawns. "That was all I wanted to say."
She was out after that. I thought about what She said for a while before sleep took me too. She approved. My Beth.
