Maybe it Was Fate

Jealousy

Kian POV
     It had been about a month since Franny moved in. She had gotten really close with all of the roommates especially me and Harrison. I always felt jealous if she was being touchy with any other roommate especially Harrison. I killed me seeing them together and I don't know why I hate seeing them together. It's not like I have feelings for her; and if I did, there would be nothing to do about it because to be honest I don't think she likes me like that, and besides I shouldn't like her, we're roommates.
      I walked downstairs to see the one and only Franny Arrieta cuddled up next the Harrison on the couch. Was I jealous? Yes. Did I hate seeing them together? Yes. But it doesn't even mean anything, they aren't dating.
     "Good morning Kian." Franny said as she sat up.
     "Morning" I said not even looking at her. I grabbed a breakfast granola bar and a bottle of water and headed to the stairs
     I started walking up the stairs until I started to hear them talk about me. I stood at the bottom 2 steps listening to Franny and Harrison's conversation
   "That was weird. He didn't even look at me when he said that." Franny said. I could hear the confusion in her voice
    "I'm sure it was nothing, he's probably still tired." Harrison said trying to reassure her.
    " I'm going to see if he's alright." Franny said as she stood up from the couch. I sprinted up the stairs, skipping one each time I took a step. I ran into my room, closed the door, but kept it unlocked, plopped on my bed, and opened the granola bar.
    I could hear her light footsteps on the floor getting louder as she got closer to my door. "Kian can I come in?" Franny said knocking on my door.
     "Yeah it's open," I said as I unlocked my phone.
      "Hey.." franny said as she sat down beside me.     " are you okay?" She asked as she looked at me. I couldn't help but stare. She had no makeup on and she was still beautiful. Her eyes would shimmer in the sunlight when the light hit them just right. She was beautiful I knew that I had fallen, I had fallen deep.
     "Kian? Are you?" She said snapping me out of my daydream.
       "What? Yeah I'm fine, sorry." I said looking back down at my phone.
        "You seemed kinda angry downstairs. Did I do something?" She said laying down next to me. We were so close. I could feel the warmth from her body. I just wanted to lay there cuddling her. My heart was pounding so loud, I felt like she could hear it.
       "Why would you think you did something you didn't do anything," I said placing my hand on hers. I wanted to tell her why, but I didn't want to make things awkward.
        "Were you angry at Harrison?" She said turning her head to look at me.
       "No, I guess I just woke up on the wrong side of the bed." I said, lying to her
      " Oh,well I hope your day gets better." She said sitting up.
          "Thanks" I said sitting up and giving her a small hug.
         She left my room. I took a shower and got changed into gray sweatpants and Bobby's merch and went downstairs. Everyone was up and downstairs. "Hey I'm going to Starbucks does anyone want to come, or want anything from there." I said pulling my shoes on.
        "Yeah I'll come just let me change first." Franny said. I was excited she was coming; that meant more time for us.
      She walked out of her room, her hair was down in loose waves from her French braid and she was in a crop top and some black joggers. She had on some adidas sneaker. She looked good.
No one else wanted anything, so we left. We got into my car and played Frans music. We had similar music taste which is good because I'm not a fan of all of the rap crap that's on the radio now, and neither was she. We were singing along when Franny interrupted, " We should do a cover sometime. Our voices sound really good together."
I was hesitant, I don't like singing in front of people let alone almost a million. "Um sure" I said.
"We don't have to if you don't want to, it was just a suggestion." She said looking down at her phone.
"No I want to, let's do one sometime." I said pulling into Starbucks. We decided to go in because the drive through line was long.
We walked in and got a blast of cold air from the AC. We got in line and decided on what we wanted. Franny ordered first, "can I have a venti strawberry açaí refresher please." Then I ordered, " can I have a grande double chocolate chip frappuccino, please." I gave them my name and payed for our drinks.
Franny had moved to the 'pick up' area and I saw some guy approaching her trying to talk to her, she looked very uncomfortable. I walked over to her, put my arm around her waist and pulled her closer to me, "is there a problem here?" I said holding her up against me.
"Nope, sorry I didn't know she had a boyfriend." The guy said stepping away.
"Well she does," I said as I kissed her cheek.
I could tell her cheeks were red because it felt warm when I kissed it. The guy picked up his drink and left Starbucks. "Sorry if that made you uncomfortable I could tell you didn't want that guy to be near you." I said removing my arm from her waist.
"No it was fine. To be honest it felt nice having someone look out for me." She said looking up at me. My cheeks were starting to get red so I looked at the ground trying to hide it.
We got our drinks and left. We got in the car and just drive around for awhile, just talking about the most random shit.
"Really? You like ketchup on your eggs?" I said with a disgusting look on my face.
"Omg yeah it's so good. I'm going to make you try it sometime." She said
"No thanks, that sounds awful."I said giving her a smirk.
She punched me in the arm and I overreacted and gave an obnoxious loud fake cry, that made her laugh.
Her laugh was beautiful.
