Crush Chronicles

Tears

The moment I got home I immediately opened my facebook account. As I was scrolling down my newsfeed something caught my eye. Something I have seen before. But I can't remember exactly when.

It was a shared post of photos recommending many anime's.

The first picture got me so interested I opened it. After it loaded I finally saw the picture. It was a picture of a family. A mother, a son, and a daughter. The two offsprings have wolf ears and tails, but the mother was as plain as day.

I immediately searched for the trailer in youtube using my iPad. As I waited for the page to reload seeing as the internet was slow, I thought I would call my friends. The page was now fully reloaded. I opened the first video on the screen on the computer. I was excited as to what the trailer might hold. Would I like it? Would I hate it? All these questions are running about through my mind as the trailer began to play. I kept my eyes firmly on the screen, fearing that I would miss small details.

I called my friends to tell them that I would have a movie night tonight. But, I completely forgot about the call and watched the trailer.

As the trailer was slowly coming to an end, I remembered I had called my friends. I shook my head at myself and I raised my phone up to my ear and said hello. My friends all responded with greetings enthusiastically, asking why I had took so long to answer. "Uh, yeah about that. I have something to tell-". "Yeah! Me too actually." Said one of my friends, cutting me off in the process.

The conversation continued and we got sidetracked. Luckily, my friend had asked saying she remembered what I had to tell them. Which I still didn't tell them yet. Because someone cut me off. Hmph!

Naturally, I just nodded my head as if saying "Oh, yeah. Now I remember." But then I caught myself. "They can't see me." I muttered to myself and chuckled a bit. I got snapped back to reality because my friends were shouting at me to say what I had to say.

"Alright, alright! I was planning on having a sleep over at my house. We could have a movie night if you guys want." I quickly explained to them.
They all responded with a yes and said they'll be here in about 10-20 minutes. I said goodbye and hanged up.

Almost after I locked my phone someone knocked on the door.
I walked over to the door and opened it. The minute I opened the door someone pounced on me. Actually not someone, but everyone. I fell to the floor and laughed.

"Get off me!" I screeched jokingly. They all got off me and greeted me properly. I opened my drawers and pulled out my comforters. I laid them on the floor and threw throw pillows above it. Creating a masterpiece.

They all flopped on the make-shift bed and sprawled over it.
"Hey! Move over you goat!" I said teasingly at one of my chubby friends.

Suddenly, there was a loud knock on the door. I quickly ran to the door and opened it. I was surprised by what I saw. It was him. I had hoped he would forget the way to my house. He knew the way to my house because I would always invite him here along with my other friends.

I got snapped back to reality by someone coughing. I shook my head and snapped back to earth. I looked up, smiling sheepishly.

"Uhh. I was invited here by Shong2?" He said, his tone somewhat confused. Shong-shong was one of my friends. He's a little goofball and always happy, but if you piss him off he's like a soldier ready to kill from WW2. "What for?" I replied, my tone suspicious. But I already knew what he was here for. "He said something about a movie night/marathon thingy." He replied shrugging.
"Oh, okay. Come in." I said. I opened the door wider to welcome him in. As he walked inside I closed the door behind me and walked in front of him.

As I climbed up the fifth step I looked back to see if he was still following. He was, so I let him be. He was looking around the corridor, looking at the pictures, walking backwards.

I stepped in front of my bedroom door and carefully opening it. I found my friends on all their phones. Some were on facebook, some on instagram, and on twitter. I just shook my head in amusement. I coughed out loud to get their attention.

They snapped their heads up and shook their heads smiling when they saw the person beside me. "Why'd you took so long?" Asked one of my friends. I explained to them that someone was at the door and that someone moved from beside me to the make-shift bed.

"Wha movie are we watching, S?" Jhalyssa asked. Jhalyssa is one of my closest friends. She's like Shong2 but a girl. (P.s. Shong2 is a boy) "Yeah, about that. We have to open youtube and watch the movie there." I replied. "But your laptop is so small." She complained. "Oh, don't worry about that. I can connect my laptop to my tv.

I quickly opened one of my cabinets where I stored all my wires, chargers etc. I pulled out my laptop from its case and plugged the wire to the laptop. I turned on my laptop then logged in. I opened youtube and searched for "Wolf Children". Once I saw the right copy of the movie, I plugged the other end of the wire to the tv. I did all the necessary things to do when connecting the laptop and tv and all that jazz.

After I was done preparing I widened the screen of the laptop and pressed play. My best friend got up and turned the lights off. Some of my friends are on the floor, some are on my bed. I shooed them away and sprawled over the bed.

I was already crying in the first part of the movie. My friends all gave me weird looks, surprised because I wasn't the type to cry so easily. But the look he gave me was of the best looks a girl could be given. It was one of a worry yet loving look. I looked his way and caught his gaze. He realized that he had been caught. He widened his eyes and looked away quickly, almost getting a whiplash.

By the end of the movie, I was hiccuping and sobbing loudly. They all gave me concerned looks. I just brushed them off not wanting to deal with them.

I tossed my feet on the floor and walked over to my laptop. I then checked if the movie was coming to an end. It was. I walked back to the bed and sat on the bed while hugging my knees. Suddenly, I felt something hug me. No. Not something, but someone. I looked up to see who it is. I had thought it was my best friend. But it was not. It was him. He was hugging me and rubbing my back soothingly. He laid my head on top of his chest while running his other hand through my hair.

Then when I calmed down he gave me some water on top of my nightstand. He whispered sweet-nothings in my ear to stop me from hiccuping.

I was interrupted from my little bubble by my friends hooting and wolf-whistling. "I ship you guyss!" Hooted one of my friends.
