I still felt like I was going to fall over and throw up and my head hurt so badly. We walked down the steps and into the dining room with me basically draped across his side just to stand up. Everyone looked up from they're food and to us. It got dead quiet and Fabian squeezed my hand lightly "What?" he mumbled walking me over to the couch. He laid me down and pushed my hair out of my face to fell my forehead "You're not hot." I nodded sleepily and laid down my head. He walked away and came back with a plate of toast and a glass of water with aspirin "Thank you." He nodded a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.
I sat up and ate the toast, and downed the aspirin handing everything back to him. He took the plates into the kitchen and I heard the door open. Joy skipped and bounded up to the table completely disregarding me. She waved and gave Patricia a hug "Hey guys! I was wondering since it's our week off, we should celebrate!" everyone nodded in unison. Amber looked at me sadly "Nina's sick she can't go." Joy's eyes flashed to me for a second
"Pity." She simpered. Fabian walked back into the room "Oh Fabian, you're coming right?" he shook his head "I can't I'm going to take care of Nina." Joy laughed "Nina will be fine with Trudy you should come and have fun." He looked down. Her smiled slipped "You really won't come, will you?" he shook his head and I rejoiced in my head.
My heart fluttered at the thought that Fabian wasn't going because of me and the thought made me extremely happy. I would have to tell him soon but I just have to wait for the aspirin to kick in.
Joy glared at Nina for a second hen turned around and walked towards the door
"Meet me at 6' o clock."
Joy slammed the door behind her and I sighed sinking farther into the couch. Fabian helped me up and I looked over my shoulder to see everyone back to chatting and eating. He sat me down on his bed and looked at me.
"You blacked out up in the attic. That's why your head hurts you hit the wall pretty hard." I nodded remembering that awful noise that we heard. Suddenly I didn't feel woozy anymore
"What was hat awful noise?" he shrugged "I have absolutely no clue." We stayed in awkward silence just staring into each other's eyes. Then he blinked blushing and looked away quickly sitting down on Jerome's bed.
This would definitely be a long night.
Later at 6' o clock….
The door opened and Patricia stepped in wearing a black dress that came mid-thigh and some black heels. She smiled sadly "We're leaving and we wanted to know if you guys would like to maybe go out without Joy tomorrow. That is if Nina is better" We nodded and Jerome came up behind Patricia and wrapped an arm around her waist waving as they closed the door.
Fabian smiled "They're cute." I spoke "Weird but in a good way." I nodded. In a distance I swear an imaginary cricket chirped.
Ugh…ok enough is enough! I'm telling him now.
I sprung up stumbling a bit to gain my balance and bounded up to him grabbing his hands.
He looked shocked "Look Fabian, I like you I mean I really like you and ever since I admitted that to myself we can't have a conversation without an awkward silence and it's really ann…" he put his finger to my lips his eyes wide "You like me?" I nodded and rolled my eyes "I like you too." I gasped "Really?" he nodded and blushed. He leaned forward scooting closer to me, then ever so softly pressed him lips against mine. I took a sharp intake of breath and he pulled away "I shouldn't have done that." He sighed.
I shook my head and put my hands on his face pressing myself against him. My heart fluttered and he wrapped his arms around my waist. I pulled away and pressed my forehead against his. His cheeks were all red and his eyes were blinking rapidly. I bet I looked the same.
He cradled my face in his hands and we stood in silence just trying to process what had just happened.
He leaned towards me and my eyes fluttered close my hands snaking up from sides to tangle in his hair. I pulled away "So what does this mean?" I gasped "Do you want to be my girlfriend?" I smiled "Yes I'd like that very much." I hugged his waist and buried my face in the crook of his neck.
Soon enough we were back lying on the bed talking about random things and then I noticed his guitar. I walked over and grabbed "Will you play for me?" he nodded and looked deep in thought before he strummed an upbeat tune, I smiled lightly "That was great." He blushed "It could be better."
I laughed "Hey, I'm hungry want to go eat?" he nodded and looked over at his clock "It is getting late." We stood up and walked to the kitchen "Hey Trudy!" she turned "Hi sweetie what can I do for you?" we looked at each other "Is there anymore spaghetti?" She nodded.
"I'll bring it to you." I nodded and we bowed out of the room. We sat at the table and Trudy brought some steaming spaghetti to the table. Fabian reached into his pocket and looked at something I looked at him and smirked. I walked around the table and tried to grab what he had in his hand. He stood up quickly "Can I see?" he shook his head and I got closer and pouted
"Please?" he shook his head. I leaned forward and attempted to grab it but he moved away pinching my waist. I laughed "I just want to see." She tickled his side and she grabbed it from him "No!" he laughed. He tried to grab it but I moved away quickly and ducked under his arm. The door opened but we were too caught up to see it at the time.
He suddenly locked his arm around my waist and pressed his lips to mine effectively distracting me. He grabbed it and stuck his tongue out "I win." I pouted and he put an arm around my shoulder
"It's okay maybe next time."
I heard the clicking of heels and we both froze "Hey guys!" I mumbled nudging his side
"We have to eat our spaghetti or it'll get cold." He mumbled quickly trying to run off to the table. Mara ran in front of him her arms crossed and Amber put her hand on my shoulder
"Neither of you are going anywhere until we know what's going on."
