Symptoms Of Love

Chapter 30- Exams!

Reeve and I have barely talked over this one week. We would study together, he would ask me how did I answer my exam , and that was about it. It's quite evident that things have been awkward between us since the night I spent at Reeve's.

Maybe he totally detested the moment we share that night, and he is only keeping up with me because of the deal. Do you know what's the most pathetic part about all of this, I didn't regret the night I only wished I was sober. Yes, I do remember the kiss and now that I know how it feels, I want more. Why? I fucking don't know.

After I went back to the room, I didn't have bath until it was absolutely necessary as I still smelled like him, and the fragrance was very addicted, maybe it was just his cologne.

Pathetic I know.

I do feel something for Reeve , something that I can not understand, something that my brain cannot translate, something that I hadn't felt before. 

It's been a week, and my curiosity towards this feeling is only growing, and so is my urge of punching Reeve in the face is growing, he is so distant. I want to talk to someone about it, but I never have ever in my life have involved anyone else into my problems.  Adriana has gone home right after the exams ended and Shane, I can sense it through my sixth sense that he is dealing with his own issues. I want to talk to him about it but at the same time don't mean to look nosy.

My phone beeps.

Talk about the devil.

Shane: hey, u free now?

Me: yep, what's up?

Shane: meet me in half an hour for lunch, there is this really amazing place that has opened.

This could be a good distraction, also I could ask Shane what's going on.

Me: hell yes, exams have caused major depletion of my brain cells. Got to restore them.

Shane:  yea tell me Abt it. Adriana is gonna me so jello ;) 

Me : well we didn't force her to attend some fancy ass gala.

Shane: I bet she could trade her kidneys to escape that gala.

Me: lol, I second that. Meet me below my dorm in an hour?

Shane: cool, see you then!

Me: see ya!

I take my own sweet time to have  bath, I can walk properly now, but running is still a big no-no. I change into a casual plain white T-shirt and dark blue jeans. Then I try to press my ears against the wall common to Reeve's room, just because you know I can. 

My phone beeps again, it's Shane telling me that he is here.

I head down the stairs.

"Going somewhere?" I am stopped by the voice my brain is very familiar with.

I could just answer normally. I could. But I miss fighting with him, and if he really is so awkward about the whole situation, then why is he even talking to me. If anyone who has got to be ignoring, it should be me. I lost my first kiss drunk, he kisses random girls all the time.  

"I would tell you, but it's none of your business." I spit.

"Oh I see, now that exams are over so you are showing your true colors, but remember results will be emailed to us today by 7 and we always have the next set of exams coming up." He speaks as he moves closer to me.

Oh my god, the fucking nerve of this guy.

"What makes you think I will need any kind of help from you from today onwards?"
