♥ 4 - jealousy? ♥

(a/n: yes this is a prinxiety book but the last line in the previous chapter was for the plot eHEHEHEHE)

The next day, the day after we kissed and stuff and talked about feelings and shit, there was a new conversation.

And I read along as the words filled the page one by one as they were said in real time.

Patton: Don't you think we should invite Anxiety for breakfast?

I thanked the lord and savior Jesus Christ that he remembered not to use my real name.

Roman: Of course not. Why would you think such a thing?

Patton: Don't talk like that. I'm inviting him.

Then I heard Patton call from downstairs in the kitchen.

"Anxiety! Do you want to have breakfast with us?"

"Sure," I called back.

I heard Roman grunt, but if Patton was there, it would be okay.

I got downstairs and sat next to Patton. He held my hand under the table and my face turned red.

SHIT! I'M NOT WEARING MAKEUP!

"Anxiety? You look sick. Your face is totally red," Roman pointed out.

"It's nothing." I looked at Patton. Then I leaned in and whispered in his ear, "so... Are we official?"

"Yeah, probably," he whispered back.

"Cool. Do we tell the others?"

"I'm fine with it. Only if you're okay with it, though."

"...I am. With you, I think I can do anything I'm afraid of."

"That's adorable."

"You're adorable." I was surprised at myself for the words that were coming out of my mouth. I had almost no control over them. I looked back at everyone else and scooted my chair closer to Patton's.

I sucked in a deep breath. "Patton and I are dating now."

Logan almost spit out his milk and Roman was blinking several times, clearly confused and processing what I'd said.

"What?" Roman asked.

"Patton. Is. My. Boyfriend. Now. Are you still confused?"

Roman went silent and looked back and forth between me and Patton.

The emo one who's only liked by one person and isolates himself from most people, and the rainbows and sunshine one who everybody likes and makes others happy.

"This is just a joke, isn't it?" Roman asked slowly.

I rolled eyes and scoffed. I put my hand on Patton's cheek, and kissed him passionately. He kissed back right away.

"It's not a joke, asswipe," I said.

Patton looked at me in the way I never knew anybody could. And for once, I felt wanted.

Roman watched us and pursed his lips. He stood up and had a much different expression that usual.

The expression he wore only once and that was when Logan got a Crofters jam flavor named after him and he didn't.

Jealousy?
