CHAPTER 7 - "ANGEL"

✓✓ Corrected ✓✓

It's 2 am on Sunday. We enter the apartment and I take off my boots to throw myself on the couch. I mentally go over what happened, again. I can't understand a lot of the things that happened tonight. Just then, Sam sits down next to me and puts my legs in her lap. She smiles and looks at me, she's waiting for me to talk.

- What? - I growl at her.

- Start talking, come on, what happened between you two? - she asks raising both eyebrows repeatedly.

- Nothing happened. I mean, it did happen but it wasn't anything amazing... or well maybe a little bit. Agh, I don't know! - I exclaim as I lean my head on the back of the couch, staring at the ceiling. - It's all very confusing.

- You mean HE is confusing? - she asks me when she sees my expression and I nod. - Well, you can tell that a mile away. The truth is I didn't see him when he disappeared in the VIP and Andy said he probably came back to the house because he was bored. We got quite a surprise when we saw you dancing together.

- You guys? I almost died when he asked me to dance with him! - exclaimed and then, sighed. - He apologized, Sam. For his attitude today and the other day at Gravity.

- Really? - she asks, raising an eyebrow. - Let me tell you something. You weren't exaggerating about his behavior, he's a jerk. I'm as surprised as you are that he apologizes for it. And I don't like to tell you this at all, but I love you and I don't want you to suffer... you have to stay away from him, Meg.

- Why? - I asked in surprise. I didn't expect that at all.

- Because boys like him just cause trouble and break the hearts of girls like you. - she says and gestures as her words have an effect that wasn't expected.

- Girls like me? What does that mean? - I ask her with a raised eyebrow. I can't help but get a little angry at what she said and then at myself for getting angry at her. Calm down, stupid. She's your best friend.

-Don't get the wrong idea, Meg. I meant that you're sweet, quiet and, like it or not, you're also very sensitive. I'm just saying, jerks like Rye, they tend to hurt girls like that. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong.

- It's okay, we're not dating or anything. It's never going to happen. Rye is everything that's wrong with a guy. He thinks he's a god for having the muscular body and taking advantage of that accent so.... - I say with a frown, but I stop when I see Sam smiling openly. - What?

-Nothing. - she replies as she pretends to look at her nails. - It's just, you can't stop talking about him.

- That's not true! -I exclaim contradicting her. Well, maybe... - I can talk about something else perfectly well. For example, how you ended up very concentrated with Andy. -I say provoking her and she blushes.

-I knew you were going to say that.... He's amazing. He's super patient and very sweet, although I feel like he's not my type. He's beautiful (too much) but he kind of lacks that "I don't know" that makes him special to me. You know what I mean?

-Yes, but don't forget you said the same thing about Nick and you were together for a long time. - I remind her and shrug my shoulders. - Likewise, I think the same thing, Andy is not for you. I wish I could tell you otherwise.

- Don't worry baby. - she says as she hugs me. - That special someone is coming.

- Yeah... it would be great to know "when".

-As if it's that easy. - she smiles understandingly. - Love is never easy.

As if I didn't know.
