Small words // Louis Partridge

Bitter

POV: Isla Kyle

I wasn't too surprised when I found out we had to sit boy, girl for meals from now on.  I really wanted to sit next to Ethan but sadly couldn't because he wasn't in our group. There is something that I find very attractive about him even though I don't like him he just had something that made you want to be with him.

"Why are you smiling?" curious Vivian asked, standing next to me as we both were looking for the seats we are supposed to be sitting in.

"Uh...smiling? Nothing," I answered.

"Yeah, well my gut tells me it has Something to do with the guy from earlier, what's his name? Eric?" She said as she and I started to walk towards another table.

"Eric? Oh, you mean Ethan?"

"See, this is about him...what's happening with him?"

"Nothing, I just...I don't know there is something about him that makes me....want to talk to him?"

"Yeah I don't blame you alot of people feel that way according to Brians' reputation and everything," Vivian answered looking away. 

reputation??

Looking at my confused face, she continued."He has that cliche 'fuck boy' thing to him,"

Ethan? You mean the cute, cuddly bear, Ethan?

"I don't know if we're talking about the same person,"

She gave me a look, how can he be a fuck boy? I don't understand. 

"Well, um, I don't think I like him, but..." I explained, not meeting her eyes.

"I just don't want you to get played, that's all," she said.

Nodding, I looked at the table once again. I was a bit disappointed that people say he is fuck boy but I trust Vivian and try and listen to her. Not having my mother around I needed to take advice from someone and that someone is Vivian.  I'm not stupid, but I can be naive at times. I like seeing the good in people, not the bad.

"I seriously didn't mean to upset you. I just want the best for you," She explained with worry in her eyes.

"Yeah, I know, don't worry, I'm not upset about what you said. You're just trying to have my back, I'm just a bit, um, surprised? He was just so sweet on the plane and stuff," I explained.

"Mhmm, I don't know just be careful who you fall for."

"Yeah, I'm not going to let him ruin this for me. I barely know the guy, so"

"Exactly, not let's actually find our seats because I'm starving."

Nodding, I started to look at other tables when I hear Vivian's voice.

"Oh, I found mine, wait, I'm going to see if you here," She said as she walked around the beautiful white table examining every card.

"Shit, bitch, your not..." she said

"Why the fuck would they separate us like that?"

"I don't know, this is shit,"

"I still need to find my seat, I'll see you after," I explained, giving her a look, why couldn't I just sit to next to her?

She nodded as I walked over to a table to find both Elian and Louis already sitting, one seat apart from one another.

Please don't let that be my seat.....

Walking over, I glanced at the rectangular card, sitting there in bold was my name.

Of course, it's my seat.
