Chapter 5. The Dinner

∼ 🗝 ∼

     Miles had taught me how to hold the guitar, how to strum it, and since it was all so easy he taught me some chords.

I already have lines on my fingers from it. It was so much fun! We were all sitting in the living room eating the spaghetti Mrs. Grose cooked.

(I'm sorry if you don't like spaghetti, I know most people do but everyone is different.)

I was sitting next to Flora who was in the middle of Miles and I.

"Y/N when we're done do you want to play with me?" Flora said. "Of course!" I said smiling at her. It's about time I start to get a little more closer to her. "Yay!" She said as she proceeded to hug me and I hug her back of course.

I've just met her but I know she's the sweetest thing ever. While I was eating I still couldn't stop thinking about Miles.

I know I like him but dear God, my thoughts of him are seriously chronic by now. It's like a literal disease, except it's not hazardous to my health. Or is it? Yeah no, I'm being dramatic.

     Well anyway we finally finished and I collected Flora's plate and my own. I gave them to Mrs. Grose,

"Thank you, the food was wonderful." I said and smiled "No problem dear." "Let's go Y/N." Flora said tugging on my hand. "Okay."

She led me to the room where Kate tutors her, which is very roomy and has some of her toys. Flora and I then sat down next to a small chest which apparently contained some of her dolls.

She then said, "Do you want to meet my girls?" "Of course." I said. She picked up an older looking porcelain doll with curly raven black hair, and green eyes. "This one is Rachel. She kind of reminds me of Miles accept her eyes are different."

I can't ever escape that boy can I? "Oh wow she's beautiful. I can see the Miles in her. Do you know where you got that one from?"

"I believe it was an auntie who gave it to me." She said stroking its hair. The head facing me. Almost looking like it's staring me down, with its marble-like green eyes. Yet again, another trait that relates to Miles.

Shit. Why am I thinking this way? I know I like him and all but I sound obsessed. Weird. I then heard footsteps walking towards the doorway, hoping it was Kate.

I looked up and I see him. I now feel something different, butterflies. Butterflies flying all around my stomach, some even trying to force themselves out of my body. I feel sick.

Why do I feel sick? He literally was just teaching me how to play the guitar.

Stop it. Stop it Y/N! I then smacked myself in the head, and since that was stupid I pretended I was swatting a bug.

"Is there a fly in here? I could kill it for you." Miles said. Nice save Y/N. "U-uh no it's gone now I think." I hate myself.

"Okay." He said and sat down between and somewhat behind Flora and me. Please someone come save me.

Flora continued showing me the rest of her dolls. I paid attention, but Miles clouded my mind even more since he was literally right next to me.
