"Abee?"

Looking up from my phone, I turned to Olly and raised my eyebrows at him. It's been a week since the "incident". A week since I came back to their place and he's been calling me "Abee".

"I need your help with something." He said as he sat beside me.

"Why me? I'm busy." I said, facing my phone again only to be snatched away from me.

"You're just playing. Besides, it's very very very important." He pouted.

"You can ask Oscar or Felix. They're not doing anything." I shrugged before standing up.

"But you're the one I need." He said as he pulled me, making me face him. He was a foot taller than me so I had to look up at him.

There it goes again. That weird feeling in my stomach making my palms sweaty all of a sudden. I looked at him strangely, "Why me?"

"Because you're a girl." He stared at me.

"And?" I crooked an eyebrow.

"And I need help from a girl." He smiled widely showing off his prefect set of teeth.

Sighing, I rolled my eyes. "Fine. But, you're buying me ice cream after this."

"No problem." He winked.

Olly, you have got to stop doing that.

----------------------------------------------

"So what do you need help with?" I said, making my self comfortable in his bed.

"Well..." He started, tapping his chin as if he's thinking before looking at me. "I like someone."

Staring at him, I felt weird. It wasn't the same feeling I had earlier that came from my stomach, this time it was from my chest. The memory of us almost kissing suddenly flashed in my mind. I thought he liked me, sort of. Maybe I was wrong, I guess he got tired of liking someone like me. That explains why he was distant for the past weeks. It's fine though, I don't really mind him liking someone else.

Shaking that weird feeling off, I crossed my legs and looked around his room. "What's the problem with that?"

"I haven't told her exactly how I feel yet. I've been showing gestures, hints and such but she doesn't seem to notice them so I wanna make it clear to her."

"Why don't you just tell her straight on?" I said, focusing on something that's on his desk.

"But I'm kinda scared." He chuckled making me look at him.

"Why?" I asked.

"She might not feel the same way." He said, rubbing the back of his neck.

"You'll never know if you'll never try." I shrugged with a faint smile.

What is wrong with you, Tyvvah? You shouldn't feel sad when you're helping someone. When you're helping him.

He stood up and walked towards me. When he was standing in front of me, I just stared at him.

Wow, his eyes are so freaking blue.

"Why are you staring at me like that?" He smiled.

Blinking twice, I coughed before answering. "You just look funny." I shrugged.
