Chapter 16: Les apparences sont parfois trompeuses.
After the deal was made, she squeezed me out of the information about me pretending to be gay. She also told me a bit about herself. She’s a pretty cool girl.
“So this Christian, tell me about him.” Gabrielle asked, sipping her coffee
“I don’t know much about him other than the fact that he goes to BMU and lives off-campus.”
She thought for a while and her face animated as if a light bulb went off in her head.
“Does his full name happen to be Christian Gres?”
“Yeah, why?”
“Well it sounds like he’s my brother’s suite mate but it would be easier if you told me the address of the party.”
I fished my phone out of my pocket and looked for the text Jade sent me with the address. My heart pained when I saw her name. I could still hear the word: ‘faggot’ just ringing in my head.
My grip on my cup tightened and Gabrielle must’ve noticed because she put her hand on mine but when I caught her eye she removed it and blushed.
“So have you found it yet?”
I handed her the phone and thought to myself what kind of information we could get on him if this link was real.
She confirmed my thoughts when she said it was the same as her brother’s.
“So do you want to go there and see if we can find out anything?”
I shook my head.
“Christian knows me. Jade might probably even be down there with him.” I shuddered at the thought
“So can I go down there by myself and find something out?”
“You don’t have to ask me for permission.” I chuckled standing up
“But thank you though ba- Gabrielle.” I corrected myself, I kissed her on the cheek and left the coffee shop
Why did I just do that? I didn’t want her to think I was coming on to her. It was just a friendly gesture. I used to do it all the time to Jade…All week, all my thoughts seemed to end up on Jade. I needed to smo- No. That was the reason Jade despises me now, well half of the reason anyways. I turned around to head back to the coffee shop to catch Gabrielle but to my surprise, she was behind me.
“I have to ask of you one more favour…”
She nodded me along.
“Help me stop smoking?”

P.S. (Gosh I use these WAY too much) Any of you listened to Diana lately? I just think it’s a really nice song, and the only thing that would make it better is if there was an Acoustic version…Gosh man, the feels…For those of you who don’t know, Diana is a leaked song from the Midnight Memories album that is about suicidal fans (Gets the name Diana from Princess Diana- princess of Wales- who was suicidal and bulimic) being encouraged to keep living and that they know/ acknowledge how we feel.
P.P.S. These updates seem to be getting shorter and shorter...Sowwie :(
