Chapter 4 : Say What!?!?

Chapter 4 : Say What!?!?

Emily's P.O.V

What just happened!?

I am still in a big shock as I exit Alex's house. Somewhere in my heart I feel happy because Alex is not a threat anymore. I know she will never like Eric and maybe I have a chance with him now.

I am such a selfish person! moreover a bad friend. I feel sick to my stomach and disgusted... How I can possibly even think of coming here and asking my best friend to back off without even knowing her part of the story!

I don't know how to feel. I feel angry because Alex hid this from me for two years and I feel happy because now Eric will have to move on and maybe I'll be the girl he'll move on to .

I enter my car and drive.... I still don't know where to go. Should I go home and give this topic a rest? or should I go to Eric's and tell him the truth? the big question is will Alex be okay if I reveal her secret? of course not! no one would be okay with this! How can I even think of doing something like this!? I am an awful person really!

I finally decide to go to Eric's and finish this of for once.

I start feeling nauseous and nervous and dizzy all at the same time. I don't know what to do. Is this right? Is it the right time?

I ring the bell and within a few moments he opens the door. His eyes brighten and he pulls me inside and shuts the door

"So?" he asks, I have no idea how to answer him.

"So? So what? You seem pretty excited to see me" I try to keep the conversation down for a bit.

"Emily! Stop fooling around and tell me! what did she say? does she like me ? or maybe she doesn't and wants to give it a try at least? tell me please!"

Oh god. This is going to be harder than I thought .

"You see Eric, She is not quite interested"

"What? What do you mean!? Why not!?"

"You're just not her type, I'm sorry... I think you should move on, there are plenty of other girls who would love to date you" one of them is me. I am such a bitch!

"What!? No! Why am I not her type? come on, I am everybody's type! I really like her, Emily. Please do something!" he begged.

I feel so terrible right now, he is almost into tears. I didn't imagine he would break down so fast!  oh boy! he really likes her. 

What the fudge are you going to do now, Emily?

"Listen Eric... you're just not her match. Don't worry, you guys can stay normal. Look at the bright side, you still get to be friends with her!" I try to calm him .

"Don't you understand !? I like her. Hell! i think i love her! I don't want to stay friends with her! I want to be more. Why can't you get that in your mind" he says raising his voice. I flinch back, a bit scared. but then anger takes over me.

"Maybe if you were a girl she would date you!" I say with equally raised voice.

Holy shit!

What did I just do!? No, no, no, no. 

this cannot be happening! What the fuck did I just do? Why am I such a moron?! Oh lord!

I am freaking out right now, my palms are all sweaty and nervousness has hit me like a big tidal wave!

"What did you just say?" he says with a very low and shocked voice.

Jesus! help me.

"Emily! I asked something!"

"Eric I really think I should leave .."

As I try to run off he grabs my wrist and pulls me towards him. Oh how I wish this was in a romantic way. 

Come back to reality Emily! he is angry and broken and god knows what right now. 

Okay! stay cool, stay calm.

"You're not leaving until I know the truth, tell me!"

"Eric please you've had enough for today.. go take some rest" I want this hell to end right now! why did I even bother to come here! I could have just called him!

"I said speak up" he demands

After a good 5 minutes of silence and staring at each other I finally decided to speak

"Alex has no interest in men."

Kill me right now! just shoot me or throw me off a cliff or stab me with a knife!

"You mean she's gay?"

"Lesbian to be more specific"

Wtf am I doing!?

He drops his hand that was holding my wrist firmly leaving red finger marks on my delicate skin. if I didn't like this boy so much I would have killed him.

"I think you should leave" he says pointing towards the door with his eyes not leaving the floor.

"Eric I know its hard-" but I am cut when he suddenly shouts saying "Get the fuck out and leave me alone! Don't you understand"

Ouch!

Ok I've had enough of his rude attitude, I am trying to help him here (well kind of) he can't just yell at me like that!

"You know what? I will leave and now! all I was trying to do is help you, And it is not my problem that she doesn't like you or anyone from your gender! I didn't ask her to be a lesbian! You can go screw yourself and dare you ever come talk to me again! Jerk!"

I storm out of his house before he can see the tears falling onto my cheek.

Why did this happen? I like him right? but there is a limit to everything... I can't just stand there and let him yell at me!

He has no rights to do that, I have self respect, and I will not let anyone lower it!

This is complete bullshit!

As I reach my driveway I see the most unexpected person standing there.

All of this happens in one day and then this girl whom I hate the most is standing here in my driveway. Why is she even here?

"What are you doing here Donna?" I am way too irritated right now to deal with this bitch.

" Well, well, well, looks like somebody is not happy to see me. Thats sad... So any interesting news, Em?"

"First of, don't call me that! only my friends are allowed to use that nickname. Secondly, What do you mean?" I have absolutely no idea what she means.

"You see Em, my stalking power is way beyond your imagination and I have managed to get some spicy news about your friends" She says with a look thats says you're screwed, see you in hell.

Oh shit!

Does she know about Alex?
