Threats (Sequel to 'Feelings')

[26] Back To Normal

Andy's P. O. V.
The doorbell rang. As I opened it I saw Amanda. "Hi" I said. "Hi Andy" she replied. "How is Rye?" she asked. "He's good, we can pick him up this afternoon" I smiled. Amanda gave me a faint smile, and sighed. "I'll just get to the point. I came to apologise. I've been hiding Charlotte away" she said looking down. "I already knew. Why did you do it" I asked. "I don't know... I thought she would change, but she didn't... Not in the right way" Amanda muttered. "Why didn't you turn her in" I asked. "I could ask you the same question" she replied. "I don't know... I just wanted it to be over" I sighed. "Then we understand each others decision" she said. "It's finally over" I said. "Are you happy" she asked. "I am, but I feel so tired" I said. She nodded. "I know exactly what you mean" she answered, giving me a hug. "Will you be able to continue your studies?" I asked. "I hope so. I'll do anything to pass my finals. Even if I have to work for it till I drop dead, I won't miss my shot" she said. "That's the Amanda I know" I chuckled. "Yeah... Back to normal again" she muttered. "Andy? Last year, when I told you I was in love with you. How did you feel?" she suddenly asked. Why would she bring that up suddenly? "I don't know... Suprised, and weird maybe. But I told myself I wouldn't let things get awkward and I put myself over it. Why do you ask?" I said. "Oh yeah, that makes sense... I mean, of all people you'd understand right. With Rye" she muttered, avoiding my question. "Is everything okay Amanda? It feels like something is bothering you" I asked. "Yeah I'm fine. I'll handle myself" she replied with a smile that I knew was fake, but I decided not to ask any further. "Well, good luck then. Take care" I said hugging her. "Idem" she said.

~evening~
Rye was finally out of the hospital. He was back, here with me. I took him back to the forest he took me once. We quietly walked over the fallen leaves that seemed to be there the whole year through. "How are you feeling?" I asked. "Tired" he answered. "Same" I sighed. "Thank you for all the visits while I was stuck in the hospital" he said. "That's okay, I did it with pleasure" I smiled. "How are you Andy" he asked, putting an arm around me. I shrugged. "I feel weird" I confessed. "Where's Charlotte" he asked. "Gone" I simply answered. "I can't believe it's finally over" I sighed. "Hey, I'm not complaining" Rye said. "That's true, things can go back to normal again" I smiled and looked at the engagement ring around my finger that he had given me. "I'm happy you're here with me again" I mumbled. We stopped at the shore of a lake, where we cuddled up together on the ground, watching the ducks. "There are so many things I could relive" Rye muttered. "Oh yeah? What?" I asked. "I'd go back to the day that we first kissed" Rye answered smiling. "Hold on are you quoting the lyrics from 'I wasn't worried?" I laughed. "You got me" he laughed. God I missed the sound of his laugh. "I' ll be there trough every single emotion" he whispered. "I' ll be there, to guide is trough every stop" I continued. "I'll be there, with all my love and devotion" he went on. "I'll be there, when you call" I mumbled. "I wasn't worried, 'cause I knew you were mine" Rye mumbled, humming the melody slightly. "I love you Rye" I mumbled in the crook of his neck. "I love you too Fovvlar" he said, giving me a small kiss on the cheek.

~The End~
