Are You There, Somewhere? (girlxgirl) [ON HIATUS]

Chapter 7: We Need To Talk About Lana

I'm supposed to post this chapter earlier this morning but I had internet problem. Sorry. But it's here now, enjoy!

Annabelle's POV:

It's almost summer. I was totally going to plan a vacation with Annabelle. Hopefully my parents will let me. They still treated me as a child and I had no way of escaping it. But they always did what's best for me and what would made me happy. I was grateful having them as my parents.

Lana and me met up frequently now. It's like we couldn't go for a long time without each other. We'd spent the day together somewhere, and at night, we'd be on Skype until we fell asleep.

She was surprisingly different than I thought she would be. She was uplifted, confident and straight to the point. She talked a lot too. I was the total opposite. I was boring, dull, and shy for no reason. A pathetic reason for a human being, covered in black clothing with band names on it.

Me and Lana has complete different personalities yet we fit together easily.

I had never been in a relationship before I met Lana. And having a girlfriend was really wonderful. I could never ask for anyone else other than her. She made me felt loved.

"Annabelle, can I talk to you for a second?" Kim appeared out of nowhere. I didn't notice she came in my room. I took off my headphones and sat up on my bed.

"What's up?"

"I want to talk to you about your girlfriend, Lana." Kim started slowly. She seemed a bit nervous, she hid it well. Yet, not well enough.

"What about her?" My face lits up like the star on the Christmas tree when Lana was mentioned.

"Are you being serious with her? Is this relationship serious between you two?" The bed depressed as Kim sat by the edge.

"What do you mean?" I frowned.

"I mean, she really looks like a nice kid. And obviously she makes you real happy. But there's just something odd about her that I couldn't shook off."

"What are you talking about? She's my girlfriend, she's the one. And why should it matter that there's something odd about her? She makes me the happiest and that's all that matters, isn't it?" I was beginning to get anxious. What did Kim meant? I thought she liked Lana.

"It is great that she makes you happy Anna. But I'm just worried about you. You've never been in love before, therefore, you've never been heartbroken. Plus, you've never told me anything about this kid, and why is that? How long have you even known her??"

"I haven't known her long enough. I met her just a few weeks ago. But she's a really nice person. She treated me like I'm her world and honestly, she is my world too. I love her, Kim. I really do. I know she wouldn't break my heart." I tried to assured Kim. I understood how she feels. I knew she was just concerned. She had a right to be. But I knew Lana. She would never hurt me. I trusted her.

"But Anna, a few weeks isn't long enough to know a person. I know you really like Lana but give it more time before you can really trust her."

Kim waited for my reply but all I could do is stay silent at that moment. I stared down at my fingers. I admitted it, she was right. But this is Lana we were talking about. Of course I can trust her. Why was Kim over reacting??

"And have you told your parents about Lana?" Kim whispered.

I looked up meeting Kim's worried gaze. Lines were forming on her forehead.

No. I haven't told my parents yet. Of course I haven't. I haven't even came out to them yet. I broke the eye contact from Kim's eyes and looked down to my fingers again.

"You know so well how your parents would react if they knew about Lana, didn't you? If they knew that you were gay."

"Whatever their reactions about my sexuality is not your business!" I spat. My heart began to boil. "And why do you care so much? It's my problem! You just need to stay out of it!" I added harshly. Now she really had pushed the wrong buttons.

"I'm worried about you and I just wanted to help! But nooo, little Annabelle is all grown up and she knows how to handle things better now, didn't she! Well, FINE! But don't come crying to me when you need stitches to your heart!" Kim snapped and left the room, not forgetting to banged the door as hard as she could.

Me and Lana didn't Skype that night. I lied awake with only my tears, thoughts and the darkness, accompanied by the sound of the city at night.

What do you think of this chapter? I think Kim has an point but she kinda pushed Annabelle too much. And if I was Kim, I'd be worried about Annabelle too.
