Opposites Attract (Sketch X Reader)

Chapter 15

The name Elijah was almost foreign to me after these 4 years. It was like a Name lodged into the back of my mind, or like a secret in a chest and I didn't have the key. I sat on the couch in the dorm I shared with a girl who was never home. I switched channels and landed on the 2022 Summer Olympics, taking place in Ireland.
"Now, Before track starts, I want to talk about how the Man competing for the US is actually British." One of the announcers said to the other.
"Yeah, Sam Byte, Born in Doncaster and moved to the US when he was 12." The other replied thoughtfully. The camera zoomed in on the track where competitors lined up for the 200 Meter dash and I saw a very very familiar face. "Sam Byte is also known as one of the first Openly Bisexual competitors in track." Sam Byte... His face looked so familiar, The chocolate brown fringe, the pale competition, the freckles at the bridge of his nose... It wasn't that type of familiar of that like 'Oh I've seen his picture on the internet before!' It was like I knew hi-
"HOLY CRAP! Sub!" I exclaim, the realization hitting me like a speeding truck.  "He made it!" I laugh to myself. The timer counted down and the runners set off, Sub speeding ahead by a long shot and crossing the finish line in 17.62 Second according to the counter in the corner.
"Holy Crap! Usain Bolt move over We've got Sam Byte breaking world records!" Laughs one of the announcers. I clasp my hands over my mouth.
"He Made it!" I laugh to myself again. 22 and breaking world records. I smiled to myself and switched off the TV.
"Bloody traitor." I heard a mutter from the back of the room. I spun on my heel and saw my roommates boyfriend. "Should be competing for us! He's born here!" He exclaims in his British accent.
"Well, It actually makes sense for him to be competing in the US. He was born in Doncaster and Moved to the US when he was twelve and he feels like he's lived his actual life in The US, plus He even competed for a track team in California in Collage. He might have also felt like he should compete for US because all of his friends are there- Actually two of them are Canadian so maybe not- Wait... Alex is British..." I think out loud.
"What are you talking about?!"
"I might have met him a couple of times." I shrug.
"No way. You met him?!"
"Yeah. I've even met all his friends." I smirk.
"How?!"
"I went to Collage with him. Pretty good friend of mine actually. Till I moved here that is." I smirk and walk to my room.
Finally! Last class of the year is Done and I've got a plane flight to New York in 45 minutes. I got in my car and drove to the airport where I went through security ad finally found my gate where I had to rush on really quickly. I found my seat and Prepared myself for the long flight.
I stared out the window as we landed in New York. I walked through the airport to baggage claim and grabbed my black suitcase. I found myself on the Bus, bringing me to where I could catch a taxi. I got off the bus and Stood in the curb, trying to wave down a taxi. There was a guy very much struggling to do so standing about 5 feet away.
"HEY TAXI!" I exclaim. The driver pulled up next to me. "This guy." I say, pointing my thumb at the man. He nodded and pulled up to him. I caught the mans eye for a brief second. Beautiful hazel eyes, A strong jawline, Pale, Brown hair falling in his face. He smiled at me before getting I the Car. Then it hit me. "Elijah." I whisper before the realization hit him too. I could see it on his face. I gulped and looked around before sprinting in the opposite direction, pushing through people and slipping through gaps. I got in a taxi that was just waiting by the curb.
"Where to, Miss?" The man asked.
"Uh, Just Queens I guess." I pant and the taxi started to move.
I knocked on the door of my apartment in Queens and a 13 year old Jayden opened the door.
"Aye!" She laughs.
"Aye!" I reply in the same tone. We bro hug and I walk inside.
"What's going on with London?" Jayden asks.
"Nothing really... EXEPT one of my old friends Won the Olympics!"
"Really?!"
"Yeah, Sam Byte? He just broke a world record like it was nothing." I laugh.
"That's Dope!" Jayden laughs also got with me. "Oh! Dude we've got new Neighbors!"
"We do?"
"Yeah, Gay couple, Super nice. One Is Like Six and a half feet tall!"
"Really? That's really tall." I laugh.
"Yeah! No joke! Literally like this tall!" She exclaims, raising her arm in the air and jumping. I laugh at her and flick her ponytail. "We're like, Homies so we could go over there now." Jayden laughs.
"If you say so." I chuckle. She grabbed my head and lead me into the hallway where she knocked on the door across from us. The door opened and the person behind it peeked thought the crack.
"Who Ye it Be?!" The man said in a Pirate voice.
"Ya Boi... Skinny Penis!" Jayden replies. I lost it. I just doubled up laughing at my sisters answer. The door opened fully and I almost stopped everything when I saw the guy at the door. Tall, Dark brown hair, Smile, Brown eyes... Denis.
"YN?" He asks.
"You know my Sister?" Jayden asks.
"Yeah we did our first year of Collage together." Denis smiles. "Where'd you go? You just disappeared."
"I go to Collage in London now so... Or Went, Actually. That was my last year." I explain.
"Huh... Simple answer but Elijah refused to talk about you. It was really weird." Denis shrugged.
"Isn't Elijah your boyfriend from when I was like 10?" Jayden asks.
"Uh yeah... Anyways-"
"DENIS! HELP!" Alex's voice rang through the air. Alex slid on his socks to the door way. "Oh hey, YN. WE'RE OUT OF TEA!" Alex exclaimed in despair. "Wait, YN?" Alex exclaims. I smile shyly and shrug.
"Yep, It's me."
