Twenty-Eight

"Holy fuck, my eyes are going fuzzy." Leia laughed, looking over to Charlie.

"Wow, nice words." He laughed as well.

The game was over and the two were lying on his bed, staring at the ceiling. Adam was quietly listening, not sure what they were doing. At some point he did feel jealous, but he didn't say anything about it. There was nothing between them, they were talking and he was sitting on his own. They spoke all the time and he couldn't tell her not to, they were friends before she and Adam were friends, or even dating.

"I'm getting so bored at home. I feel paralyzed. I can't do anything." She sighed.

"You can watch TV."

"But I'm bored of it. I've watched TV for four days straight. I slept during the practice and now I'm bored again."

He chuckled. "I hate to see you pregnant." He told her.

"Why?" She sat up and Adam looked away, both his eyes widening.

Charlie simply shrugged. "Because you're stubborn and active. You'd get bored so easily."

"True, but at least I'd have something to look forward to in the end. What does this concussion bring me to?"

"A better person?" She slapped his arm and he laughed, rolling over onto his bed. "Ow."

Shaking her head, she looked over at Adam, who was very quiet and not too comfortable with the topic. "Adam, why don't you talk?" She asked. "You seem bored, too."

"Not really." He shrugged. "Besides, you two seem to be having quite the conversation."

Leia looked back at Charlie with a smirk. "He's jealous." She whispered, he nodded. "I know it."

"I'm too good." He played along.

She twirled around, screwing up Charlie's bed sheet and got up, walking a few feet over to Adam's bed. Charlie got up and as the time neared seven forty-five, he grabbed his towel. "I'm going for a shower." He said. He didn't really feel the need to be around the two when they were together. He knew it was their time and not their time plus Charlie. So, he decided to take a shower since he hadn't had one after practice. "See you guys in a bit. No funny business."

Leia laughed, leaning forward and hit his arm. He came back hitting her side with his towel and she chuckled, falling back onto Adam. He sighed, sort of bored and had no idea what to do. When Charlie had left, Leia looked up at him, her head in his lap as she looked up at him and only him. He was lying back against the wall, his legs flat in front of him, his feet hanging off the side of his bed. "You're cute when you're jealous."

"Me?" He scoffed. "Jealous?"

She nods. "Yes. You're jealous of Charlie. I don't know why. Come on, we're good friends and you're both good friends."

"I was not jealous, Leia."

"Were too." He lied down on his back, resting his head and shoulders on his pillow, half sitting up and half lying down. Leia had turned as well, pulling herself up next to him. "I know this hard on you."

"I don't know what we're talking about now."

"Us. I know you hate how things are. I'm not playing hockey, I'm hanging around with everyone, I sleep all day, I sleep in class, I sleep at practice. I just eat, sleep, and watch TV. Boring for you, I know, but what am I to do?" She explained, looking him in the eye.

"It's all right. That's part of your recovery. I'm yes, selfish, because I want to do it all with you, but it's hard when you're always sleep-" She had cut him short when she yawned. "-ing." He finished.

"Sorry."

"At least you're not stubborn."

"I'm not." She leaned over and kissed his cheek. He turned and she kissed his lips the second time around. Smiling, she shook her head and looked down. Only to have him lift her chin up, he leaned in slowly, placing his lips against hers. Her lips became a whole with his as they were in sync. She almost felt like she wanted it too much, like she couldn't hold herself back and that she had to kiss him. Of course, Adam loved the feeling because he hadn't really gotten to kiss her like this in a little while.

She pulled back, needing air and lied down. Bringing a hand under her head, she yawned again, covering her mouth. "I love you, Adam. I really do love you."

"I love you too." She smiled, taking his hand in his.

Soon, she'd fallen asleep on the outer side of the bed and Adam had fallen asleep on the side closer to the wall. When Charlie came in quietly, he turned and locked door. He didn't need anyone coming into the dorm because technically, once it became nine o'clock, girls and boys were to remain on their floors, not in one another's rooms for certain reasons. Charlie knew his two friends and they'd never do anything wrong.

Leia slept on her stomach, her arm was under the pillow and the other hung off the edge of the bed. Meanwhile, Adam was facing the wall, his back towards her. Neither of them touching, which surprised Charlie because the beds were a twin bed, nothing too big, but they managed to both fit on one bed. He settled into his own bed as the time was eight-fifteen. The room was quiet and he had turned the light off, turning the volume down on the TV as he flipped through the channels, looking for something to watch until he felt tired.
