~Anxiety~Christian Akridge AKA Christian Leave (fanfict)

Chapter 8

The elevator stops on my floor so I get off. I use the key that Casey's mom gave me earlier to get into my room. I walk in, taking in the amazing room, theres a large window giving us a view over all of New York City. "Hey," I hear someone say and quickly turn around. To my surprise Casey is already in the room with her pajamas one and ready for bed. "Oh hey, when did you get here?" I ask. "About a half an hour ago, Jack dropped me off, he is staying here too," she explains. "Did you have fun with Jack?" I question, taking of my gloves and resting them on the table. "Yeah he took me out to dinner an-" she is interupted my a knock on the door. "Thats my parents, probably, checking in to make sure we are back," Casey says rushing to the door. She pulls it open and sure enough, there is Casey's mom. "Hi girls, I just wanted to check in to see if you needed anything," she smiles. "No I think we are ok!" I cheer. "Yeah thanks mom," Casey says pulling her mom into a hug. "Happy Birthday, Cas," her mom hugs back. "Good night," Casey says and closes the door.

"Soooooo, did you and Christian have fun?" Casey asks as she sits on the bed. "Yeah we went ice skatting, then we went out to dinner, and then we went to the Empire State building!" I recall the night. "Sounds romatic," she jokes, "did you make out?"

I smiles and walk into the bathroom. "Woah, I was kidding! Your really made out with him?" her face looks more serious as she follows me. "Well, he kinda kissed me," I admit. "Dont you think you are taking this too fast? He literally just walked back into your life a few hours ago,"

"Someone sounds jellouse," I crack a grin but she just looks at me. "I just dont get that ever since we met him, you have been mad at him, but now all of a sudden, you are opening your arms letting him back into your life! He has been ignoring you ever since we met him and you hated that! And what makes you think that he is ever ganna text you back after tonight?" she raises her voice. "Casey, he droped his phone in the toilet and had to get a new one with a new number. He lost all his contacts so we had absolutly no contact at all," I explain. "Well either way, you made out with him the day you met him, why are you rushing everything so fast? You never even had a boyfriend before. To be honest your being really stupid right now, Kayla,"

"Both times, he kissed me first! I couldnt controll that, and when he kissed me today, I did stop him," I may have lied there, I stopped him because I had to go, not because I didnt want to. "I saw the picture he posted of you and him on the Empire State building, he wrote 'Friend' in all capital letter to be sure that no one thought you were dating, how does that feel? He doesnt consider you anything more than a friend, get over yourself," he smiles alittle and lets out a laugh. "I told him not to write girlfriend because I didnt want his fans to hate me!"

"He was going to write girlfriend? So you are dating him now, huh? You have seen this boy twice. Does that make you his girlfreind automatically?"

"We really like eachother, I never said he was going to call me his girlfriend! I told him to clarify that I am not his girlfriend to his followers! He hasnt even asked me if thats what I want yet,"
"How do you know that's he not just doing this all as a lie, Kayla? How do you know he's not pitying you because your different?"
"Different? You rea-"
"Kayla, I am so sorry, please, I didn't mea-"
"How fucking dare you! How do you think it feels to look at yourself in the mirror and hate everything about you? To constantly be panicking that people are staring at you because you have to squeeze into your jeans? To not be able to walk around at the mall because people are looking at you? Oh that's right, you don't have that problem, because your normal and I am the freak here!" I scream. "Kayla, calm down, someone will hear you, I said I was sorry it just slipped out of my mouth,"
"Go away" I keep a stern look on my face. "Bu-" she starts. "I said go,"
She leaves and I slam the bathroom door shut and sit on the toilet seat
Maybe she's right. I am different, I know that, she knows that, and Christian knows that. I just don't like other to think that too, and it sucks when your best friend tells you what you don't want to hear. What if Christian is making all this up just to help me, what if he's pretending that he likes me, takes me out to dinner showing me that it's ok to eat just so he can fix me. I can't be sure but what if what he said today about his phone falling in the toilet was a lie and he really did change his number?
I sit in silence for a few minutes deciding on whether or not I should even go to the lobby.
If I don't then I might not ever see him again and if I do then I will get to talk to him. I don't care what Casey thinks, I am going to see Christian and it's not her choice. I get changed into a pair of leggings an old field hockey sweatshirt. I take off all my makeup and put on new makeup to look fresher and leave my hair down. Usually, I only wear leggings to bed when all my sweatpants are gone but today I am not afraid of Christian judging me. I decide to lie down in bed but not sleep for another hour until I have to meet Christian in the lobby. Casey is already sounds asleep in her bed already. I roll down the sheets on mine and get into bed. I just look at the wall thinking about what Christian could possibly want at 1 a.m. At 12:50 I get up go go into the bathroom to brush out my hair and touch up my makeup. Before I leave I grab the room key and my phone off the table and then close the door behind me. I get into the closest elevator and hit the button to go to the lobby. I check the time, 12:59, I am making good timing. The elevator doors open and I walk into the lobby. Standing in the middle of the door was Christian. He was wearing a white t shirt and blue and read pajama pants. I smile at him as I walk over to him and he keeps his eyes on me. When we are close enough he holds his arms out to hug me so I wrap my arms around his neck. "Come here," he says and we sit down on one of the couches in the lobby. "Why'd your want me to come here?" I ask to break the silence. "I want to ask you something," he says putting his arm around my back, hooking his hand around my waist, and pulling me closer. "W-what?" I feel my face flushing, and I sneeze my hand in nervousness.
"When can I meet your family?" He ask, looking a little nervous. "M-my family?" I ask, we aren't even dating yet. "Well you're the one whose traveling and is busy so you tell me," I grin. "you live in Brooklyn, right?" He asks.
"Right, it's only a short drive from here"
"How about tomorrow night?"
"Yeah that should be ok, I just need to text my parents in the morning, if not then sunday night works too,"
"Ok," Christian says, "I need your address too thought,"
"Here I ll put it in your notes on your phone," I say holding out my hand. He pulls it out of his pocket and gives it to me. I go to unlock it but he has a lock on it. "Oh it's 0108" he mentions. "what's it stand for your birthday or something?" But then I remember, I changed my vine name so it has an 18 in it to represent January 8th (January=1 8th=8), the day I met Christian. "Wait, January 8th, that's what it stands for," I say. "y-yeah," he blushes. "Remember how I said my vine name is @kaylariley18? What do you think the 1 8 stands for?"
He laughs, "I realized that the second you gave me that name, it's why I made my passcode 0108,"
"That's so corny but so cute at the same time," I say giggle. I find the notes app on his phone and type in my address carefully and recheck it three times. I give him his phone and he puts it back into his pocket.
After a few seconds of silence I speak up and say "Casey and I got into a fight in the hotel room,"
"What why?" His forehead wrinkles. "Well I told her that we kissed again and she told me that I shouldn't be so attached to you because I have only seen you twice in my life," I explain, "We've acted like a couple ever since we met and she thinks that were moving too fast,"
"Well do you think we are?" He asks. "I don't even know, Christian, to be honest I never dated anyone before,"
"That's ok with me," he mumbles, he's hot when he's tired. "She also thinks your just being nice to me temporarily just because I have those problems," I spit out immediately regretting it. My pulse rises and body heats up at the thought of it. His head spins in my direction immediately, "you don't think that's true right, I would never do that, to anyone," he says shocked. "Y-yeah i-it's just t-th-" I start but can't find the breathe in me to finish. "Kayla!" I feel a hand shaking my shoulder. Panic Attack! I want to scream but I can't. Christians hand slide behind my back around my waist and under my thighs again. He can't carry me I'm too heavy. "NO!" I scream and use all my energy to scream and kick as hard as I can. i feel myself fall hard to the ground.
