Shower Me with Love

Chapter 3~ Deep

He handed me a can of red spray paint. i looked confused, "what do i do?"

"paint!" He said as he sprays white paint on a tree trunk.

i shook the can and started to paint a maple leaf. i don't know why but it's just always been one of my favourite things i guess.

I notice Even was watching me when i start filling in the maple leaf, "That's good. do you draw?"

i stop and look at him, "i'm not a drawer. i'm not an artist. i'm not-"

"you have tal-"

"IM A NO BODY THATS GOOD AT JACK SHIT!"

He backed up a step, "okay didn't mean to offend you. just keep going with your gay maple leaf shape thing"

i look at him. "What the fuck did you just tell me? you know what never mind i'm done," i throw the paint can at his feet, "I don't even know why i'm here. why AM i here Even."

He picks up the paint can, "Because. i like y- Hanging out with you."

We lock eyes for a second and then he throws the can at me again, "keep going no body"

I begin spraying again and i realize i painting evens name and i quickly into a tree trunk. out of the corner of my eye i see him walking towards me. i continue spraying.

suddenly there's a hand on my shoulder.

"I meant to say that i liked you. that's why your here".

I drop the paint can.
