The Dark Side - Chris Motionless

Pills

*Samantha's POV*

I sat in my dorm room most of the time for the rest of the weekend, except for one time when my friend visited me. I've been texting him nonstop saying that I wanted to get out of this hellhole and how this guy practically attacked me with kisses in the supply closet. Of course, I didn't tell him that I liked the kisses or that the guy was Chris, whom I also might have a crush on. So he basically knew nothing.

"Well I think that asshole needs to be taught a lesson." Austin, my friend, said while playing with the pillow on my uncomfortable bed.

*quick authors note: Yes, I made her friend Austin Carlile and I know that Chris and Austin are friends in real life but for the sake of the story, just pretend... And Austin in the story isn't in Of Mice & Men yet... Okay continue...*

"Nah, it's okay." I looked down awkwardly at my blankets and twisted my fingers in them.

"Is this really what you have to sleep on?" I nodded without looking up and he made an exasperated sound. "Well that just won't do for my little piggy now will it?"

I know you're probably thinking 'why is he calling you his little piggy' but we've been friends since like kindergarten and when I was about five years old, he pushed me in the mud and I dragged him in with me. We began mud wrestling and from then on he's been calling me his little piggy and id always make stupid pig noises at him. It probably sounds really stupid an childish but he is my best friend, my only friend, and basically my big brother. lets just say, I told him everything, even my crushes! And that's a big deal.

"That's it." He interrupted my thoughts unintentionally and continued. "You're coming with me, little piggy!" He grabbed me by the waist and threw me over his shoulder with ease. I flailed and tried to wiggle my way off his shoulder, but his grip tightened. He began walking down the hallway of the dorm house and sat me on a bench outside. "I've been meaning to ask you something for quite a while."

"Mmhhmm" I swung my legs over his lap and put my head on my hands to listen to him. "What is it, big piglet?" He smiled that big, loving smile of his and hesitated a little bit. What could he be telling me that's so nerve racking?

"I-umm..." He paused and smiled nervously. "I've kinda- ever since I met you- you know we've been really close- and you probably think of me as just your big brother and stuff..." He decided on a way to finally tell me without getting side tracked. "I like you, Sam... No.. I love you." He blushed awkwardly and looked down at my legs on his lap.

"Oh." That's all I could think of as a good enough reply.

"It's okay, Sam, you don't have to like me back, I just- I just thought I'd say it and get it off my chest... I'll just leave now..." He quickly said and squirmed out from underneath my legs and nearly ran away.

"Wait, Austin!" I called and he reluctantly stopped. "You like me?"

He nodded shyly. I got up from my spot on the bench and just then I saw Chris enter the courtyard and was watching us. Now I know what I'm about to do is wrong, but I couldn't stop myself. I needed to make Chris jealous.

I walked up to Austin and kissed him lightly, but he snaked his arms around my waist and pulled me deeper into the kiss. I have to admit, he was an amazing kisser with his soft lips, but I couldn't help but feel Chris's lips instead. Chris walked closer and I could see in his eyes that he was hurt. Why would he be hurt? He was the one with the girlfriend and always told me to get away from him. So I dove deeper into the kiss, parting my lips slightly to let Austin's tongue in. I pulled away reluctantly and I could see Austin's yearning for more. "I love you too." I whispered in his ear seductively.
