Chapter 4: Spoiled child

Thanks for reading!
########################

I couldn't help but to run, my feet took over my body, pulling me away....I made a mistake, a big mistake...Why couldn't I stand it? We could all be friends...

I turned around, they weren't coming...Aidan probably doesn't know what to do and Janice is too shy to follow....Afraid to make a scene...

I stop running and crouch, sobbing in the middle of the pathway. The streets were isolated, a single cat being the only witness to my cries.

Heavy, Angry footsteps banged in the distance, i didn't look back...it wasn't her...

A hard shoe was thrown at me, hitting be my my back. I twisted around to see exactly who I wanted to see, a confused, angry Janice...

Her face struck with anger, she came from behind me, in her usual quiet monotone voice she said, "I don't know why you ran off! But I know you're acting like a spoiled child!"

I shrugged, I avoided her moves to make eye contact, I didn't want to face her, " I don't know..."

It be gam raining...or what I thought was rain...A single tear fell on my arm, it was warm...I couldn't look up I didn't want to see her cry...

"I just want to know...what happened to the usual, cocky bastard?..." Her cries gained louder, please don't cry! "Please, don't hate me! Don't leave me! I don't want you to go!"

I looked up a little, she was trying to be tough, her hands rubbed her eyes and she clenched into her lip...how long has she been holding it in?

Without notice my body forced itself up, causing me to wrap my arms around Janice's neck, our faces were cheek to cheek and I could think about was, " Why?! I always try to make you smile! But why do I only unravel negative emotions!" I felt her arms slide around my middle, her embrace was warm and sweet, " i tried all month! And that son of bitch gets a smile right away! Why?"

I felt Janice tremble in my arms, crying harder than ever, "...I'm sorry...sorry, forgive me....I'm so sorry...don't leave! Don't go...I can't deal with this again!"
I couldn't say anything I just held her in my arms, waiting for her to calm down...

When she was done, I wiped her tears and pulled away, her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were red.
We parted ways, I waved as she went away, her house wasn't as close as she said it was...she was just being polite...

I waited at her locker, filling with excitement as she came down the hall, her face was the same as always.

When her eyes met with mine I smiled, stepping out of her way, "Come get ice-cream with me!"

She stared coldly into my eyes, putting her things into her locker, "Just us?"

I nodded, "Just us!"

She slammed there door and locked it, "Good."

We--well, I--skipped happily down the hall, I was having ice-cream with Janice! It's like we were friends all along!

At the ice-cream parlour I ordered a Raspberry swirl--for moi--And a passion fruit cone --for my new Bae--

Janice waited on a table outside, she looked so beautiful against the sunlight as she read her book... freckles that I barely noticed spotted across a slightly rounded face, her lips so red and eyes an unusual crystal Ivory.

I came up to the table happily cheering, "I bring Ice-cream!"
I handed out her passion fruit cone, snatching my raspberry swirl for myself.
She rose from her seat and took her ice-cream from my hands, " let's walk"

Her placed her book into her bag and licked the ice-cream.

Aiming for the park bench we watched the children play on the jungle gym, it was peaceful there...They all played happily and the mothers' group laughed and chattered.

As we approached the park bench, a little kid bumped me, forcing me to drop my precious ice cream, the kid didn't even apologise!
I sulked over my lost food, I saw that Janice had helped herself to a seat, she held her ice-cream up to me, offering it silently.
It took me a few seconds...but I accepted it, as I watched her clean the fallen soldier (my ice-cream) off the ground I realised...The sweet tangy flavour in my mouth was once Janice's ice-cream...indirect kiss?!?!

Why am I getting so worked up on it anyway? It's just an ice-cream...that Janice licked...Ah! It no problem right? We're JUST FRIENDS afterall!

I blushed as I realised the mothers from before were giggling at us. It embarrassed me how they believed it was a date!
Janice stared at me, confused, "what's wrong? Fever?"
She held her hand up against my forehead, causing me to blush harder.
"You're very warm...good that we're outside!"
I was puzzled how does the outdoors and a fever link like that? Janice noticed my state of confusion, "We get colds and fevers from the bacteria that builds up indoors, being outside mean you can help fight against the bacteria...and because it's Autumn it's cold and...bacteria doesn't...do well..." She blushed, coughing before continuing to speak, "sorry! I got too excited!"
I smiled, "No, I think it's interesting!" I laughed a little bit, "Although I don't understand it!" Really I didn't get anything that she said before, was it even English?
I saw what I had always wanted, ever since we became friends, she shine as bright as the sun when she smiled, she looked so gorgeous and happy...I instantly became addicted, it wa smoothing like the smile Aidan received.

Janice began to talk about her philosophies, how the world works, what happens when we die, etc...seeing her talk on and on made me so happy, I wanted to be with her forever...

...Forever...
