Chapter 20 - Awe Fiddlesticks

The next couple of weeks passed by in a blur. Olivia has been hanging around with Jason because they're dating now. I'm glad to see Jason moved on and totally upgraded.

Lilly has been hanging a lot with Jason, Olivia, and Ash. I don't know when Ash started hanging with them, but my plan is starting to fall into place now I guess.

Secretly, I've been hanging around Donte. He still isn't forgiven by the other people and crabs. (Yes, I meant crabs.) Well, Lilly, Olivia, and -- surprisingly -- Jason has forgiven him. Although, Grey and Quinn haven't been so easy on him.

Quinn has still been very distant. I still can't believe what I witnessed the day on my 'date.' I wonder if that's now he is or if he was drunk or something.

Whatever it was, I have to ask him about it whenever we're alone.

Grey and Quinn have been out doing who knows what. They went their separate ways, but they've been out very frequently.

Right now, I'm at home in my kitchen with Donte making him fish sticks. It's easier this way because nobody is home. My mom is at work and my dad is on a business trip. He gets back next week.

It is Wednesday December 16. Next week is Christmas. California is still hot around this time of year. I'm not really used to it because when my parents and I would travel, it would always be cold and snowing. This will be my first Christmas in a tropical climate.

"Thank you." Donte says randomly, making me avert my attention from the fish sticks to his zoned out face.

"For what?" I ask sitting on the stool next to him.

"Thank you for every thing. You made half of the people who were mad at me not hate my nuts. You stayed with me even when everyone else moved away. You helped me through so much that I don't even know how to repay you."

"You will never ever have to repay me. I did that on my choice, not for you to pay me back. I did this because you're a person I highly care about. I couldn't stand you being hated without someone knowing the full story. Once I knew the full story, I understand it now. You have nothing to be sorry for and never will gave to be."

"Yeah, I put you through pain." He said, his voice barely audible.

"Yeah, but you know what my mom always says? She says 'You can't get to the good without going through the bad.'"

"Well, you're mom is very wise." He said with a small smile.

"That she is."

He pauses for a minute before talking again. "You never really responded to me."

"Why do you mean?"

"When I told you I liked you. That I love you because you're really close to me and I can't think of anyone else who I'd want to spend my life with."

"Umm, you've never said that you loved me." I say searching my brain for the information.

Nope. That's never been said.

He shrugs. "Then I'm telling you now. But I just need to know how you feel abut me. You've never given off obvious hints as to how you feel. So, please, just tell me upfront."

"Well, I love you too. You, Grey, and Quinn are the best things that have happened to me. Yeah, you're triplets, bit something about you sticks out that attracts me so much. You're way different than them. Heck, you're all very different but I only have feelings for you. You were the person I'd call out to for help. You helped me solve my problems. I trust you the most out of anyone. I know you'll always be there. It did hurt when I say you and Bianca mushy and stuff, but I knew you didn't enjoy her. I'm just glad we're okay now, through all that drama. But I'm sure the drama isn't over." I say giggling at memories. He will join me at times. Other times he just stares off into space, as if he's really thinking about what I'm saying.
