The Narcissist

Chapter 17 - HEART TO HEART

"So what is he to you?  Gogo, I know you since we're kids. You can't hide it from me the way I couldn't hide my sexuality from you." Fin said.

I had to laugh at his statement. We met at pre-school and we're always being paired up because of our good looks. I had a bit of a crush on him because he's somewhat distant to me, unlike the other kids who wants to hog all my attention.

It turns out he's gay, imagine my surprise when a cute little Fin told me he also like dolls.  Since then we got so much closer, he's like a brother to me now or in his case sister.

"Fin." I started whining a bit. "I like him." I said leaning my head on his shoulder.

He leaned his head on mine. "Gogo, are you serious about him? You never really take guys seriously." He stated.

Well, that's a fact.

"Rhett is different. He doesn't seem to want me." I explained.

Fin laughed, "Maybe he's gay. I didn't want you like that either."

I sat up abruptly, "Do you really think so?" I asked him in alarm.

He chuckled, "Sometimes you're so gullible. Of course he's not gay! Did you see his iron grip of a shake hand earlier? I thought my hand is gonna fall off."

I laughed out loud. "I thought you're saying he's hot."

"Yeah, that too. He's kinda hot if you ask me." He smirked.

"Yeah." I sighed in reply. He nudged me gently. "I think you like him very much." He stated.

"I think you're right." I said. "Fin, I have a gameplan." He then looked at me curiously.

"I'm gonna make him fall in love with me in one month." I announced, my enthusiasm waning.

"Of course you're Gorgeous Antoinette! You can definitely do it." Fin encouraged. Then he made a face.

"What?" I asked.

"Then what? After you made him fall in love with you, what are you gonna do?" He inquired, knowing me too well.

He got a point. After making Rhett fall in love with me, what am I gonna do? I've never been in a serious relationship.

"I haven't thought about that yet." I honestly answered.

"I'm warning you Gogo, you might end up hurting him. Or worse, hurting yourself in the process." Fin warned. "What I'm saying is don't bite more than you can chew."

I contemplated on that thought for a bit, then kissed Fin on his cheek. "Thanks Fin."

He wiped his cheek, "Ew. Not on my cheek, Gogo! If you're gonna kiss me do it on my lips."

I looked at him, "You're so gross." I said but I complied.

He smiled, "Thank you for constantly reminding me that I like guys best."

I slapped his stomach, "What do you mean?! That is so offensive."

He groaned at the impact. "Whatever Gogo. I know you like me and that I'm your first crush." He smirked.

I raised my hand again to hit him when he yelled. "Stop it!! I just wanna share your strawberry chapstick!! Geez woman! Like, think for a sec I'm obviously prettier than you."

He ran away laughing having the knowledge that I couldn't chase him around because of my sprain.

"Fin!! Get back here!!" I yelled also laughing.
