Kay looks between Simon and I, trying to figure out what's wrong.
I'm still in the corner on the sofa with my knees to my chest and Simon looks at the table in front of him with no emotion.
"Have Ariel been crying?" She says and looks at Simon, pointing at me. "Have you been crying?" She then question quickly straight away looking at me.
No one answered her, and we both avoided eye contact with her. "What happened?" She walked over to me, and sat herself beside me. "What did you do Simon?" She keeps asking these questions, and put an arm around my shoulder, in an attempt to side hug me.
"I haven't done anything to her," He spat, clearly annoyed. "Then why are you crying?" She said calmly, and stroke my back, trying to comfort me.
I rose my head, and turned my head to look at her. "Something happened before I got here. So if it's okay for you, can we just talk and watch a movie?" I tried to smile to her, and then turned my head so I was looking at Simon, "Alone" I made a small nod towards Simon, so she would get the hint and she mumbled an 'okay' before rising from beside me.
I put my head down on my knees again and just sighed really loudly. I heard a kissing sound before the door opened and closed.
Let the fun begin!
Mikayla made her way to me again and I sat myself normally again. She didn't say anything, and neither did I. It was a silence that wasn't awkward, we just didn't know how to start the conversation.
"I'm sorry," I mumbled quietly, but loud enough for her to hear. "It's alright, don't b..." I interrupted her before she got the chance to finish her sentence. "No, you don't understand." I said and looked up at her, trying to make myself get tears. "You're scaring me Ariel." She said and examined my face. "I'm so sorry," I did manage to get tears in the end, and quickly put my head in my hands, to make it even more believable.
And if you're confused on what I'm doing, I'm simply trying to make chaos between her and Simon. This is just the start.
"What? What happened? Talk to me please?" She begged and I looked up to her again and it looked like she was about to cry as well. "No, don't cry oh my god!" She was sat next to me and I took her in my arms, and she did the same. We hugged for a few moments, before I pulled back.
"It makes me upset to see people cry." She explained and made a small laugh. She waved her hand in front of her face in an attempt to stop the tears from falling, but it didn't work.
So, she thinks I'm sad about something. Phase one is done.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." I laughed a little, and wiped away the tears. "Maybe we should just watch a comedy now, I think we both need to laugh a little," I smiled and Kay agreed with me. She didn't ask me anything else about why I was crying, or why Simon looked so dead in his eyes when she first arrived. Maybe because she didn't want to upset me.
She'd probably ask Simon later, and there's stuff he won't tell her. For example, I'm his ex.
And I think she'll notice that he's hiding something, which is why I need to be as honest as possible, and be as good as a liar that I can possible be when she talks about Simon.
Sure, Simon lied to me for a good year, but he might still fuck this up. He's a good liar, I'll give him that. But I just need to outsmart him now, I know how he works.
"Oh, how could I forget! I have chips, and what do you want to drink?" Kay blurt out like 10 minutes in to the movie. "how could you forget?" I laughed and raised my eyebrows, "Oh, and coke please" I smiled, and she nodded before disappearing in the kitchen.
She's so innocent in all this, I kinda feel bad about doing all this. But whatever, can't let the guilt ruin this. I swear, Simon doesn't deserve this at all.
