After we decided on colorless contacts, Kevin told us that his plans were bogus. But, the question was why he was still here? He's plotting something. Likewise, he keeps grinning like the Joker. Creep.

We were still in our same seats with Blaine in between us two on the couch. The contacts were irritating my eyes. As if the contacts were worth it.

"So, we're not even going anywhere?"

So, I was grumpy, you would be too. I was still beating myself for not denying my feelings for Blaine. Something tells me that Kevin wouldn't have even been here if I didn't admit to liking Blaine.

"Nah, I just wanted to see Blaine and you-r hair."

I went closer to whisper into Blaine's ear as Kevin kept smirking at me.

"He's freaking me out." I hissed. She shook her head at me.

It's most likely to indicate that she really likes him and she wants me to give him a chance. And yes, I know that all with one look, this is the girl I spent approximately 95% of my life with. But, seriously this is her type? Suddenly, I'm missing her older brother Jasper. At least, he wasn't a complete flirt. I leaned back and crossed my arms moodily staring at the stupid box of contacts, nothing could replace my glasses!

I planned to address Kevin again as he leaned closer to Blaine. I suddenly closed my mouth as I watched wide-eyed.

He wouldn't..

I let out the breath I was holding as he went to whisper in her ear instead. He's so annoying. Knowing I was beside her, he winked at me, and it took everything in me to control myself. He opened his mouth, and I bet all the dictionaries I own that his first sentence will start with 'Blaine'.

"Blaine, I was wondering." Ding Ding Ding! I don't know whether to be happy that my dictionaries are safe or angry that Kevin keeps persisting to get me mad. "There is something that we could do." His eyes were contradicting his lips as he was looking at me while saying it.

He leaned back as I kept feeling that I was losing my mind. He of all people shouldn't be able to make me feel like this! I growled before I could stop myself; I didn't care what they're thinking. I kept my arms crossed and faced forward again. He's officially A-hole #2. I bet Blaine was giving him a curious look. I wouldn't know! Her attention is on him. He continued either way.

"There's a party tonight. I think it'll be perfect to show off Alan's new look." He smiled at her while getting a little too close to her face. Why wasn't she pushing him away?! "Maybe we could go to-"

And that's all I heard. Before I even noticed that I got up, I slammed the door on my way out. Fine by me if she went with him! I don't even know why I'm so angry or when and why my hands went up in the air. All I knew was that something in my chest was killing me, and no not lungs, but my heart. But, it was unfair of me. If she wants to be with him, then who am I to get in her way? I could fake a smile, finish this guide and show her that I could be better than this flirty onion-head! And, I know I just called him an onion-head. I sulked as I made my way home. I'm losing myself, and I believe it's because of the guide. It's changing me on the inside too. I have to go stare at a dictionary before I entirely lose my mind!

Before I even left Blaine's neighborhood, a girl winked at me; she was a blonde with a tank top and short shorts in the middle of February. Today was strangely warm though, so I didn't blame her. When she made it out of the block, I looked behind me to see if there were any guys behind me that must have gotten her attention. But, no one was there. Confused and having no idea what that meant, I stood still for a while. I looked at the sky and let out a sigh before going back to Blaine's house. I took my time walking to clear my mind. I kept telling myself I was going back because I wanted to know why that girl winked, but I knew I was lying to myself. I never left Blaine without looking back, and I never wanted to start. Only an A-hole would do that.
