I was in a total funk all through Tuesday and through Wednesday too. I didn't want to go to Russian Literature, but I totally had to go because he took attendance. He was creepy enough that he like memorized everyone and their names... it was totally weird. He'd just spend the first few minutes of class staring at us and checking off names. Without talking at all. Totally freaky right?
I got there right as he was starting class and sat in the back. The whole class I was watching Toris. He had totally sat in the seat next to the one I usually sat in. He was taking notes, but every so often I could see him looking around trying to find me. I'm super lucky though because I'd sat like right behind him, but at the back. I guess he didn't want to seem like he was looking for me though because he never turned in his seat. He'd just sit there and like crane his neck in the cutest way ever. God I was in love.
I couldn't decide if I wanted to talk to him after class, but I totally wasn't given a chance when Scarf Man said at the end of class "Łukasiewicz, you will speak with me after class Да?"
I stared at him. "Да." What? I'd totally just spouted out Russian. Damn.
He gave me a creepy smile and once everyone left I went to the front of the room.
"You are Toris' friend, Да?" I glared at him for calling Toris by name so casually. Why didn't he use Toris' last name like he had with me?
"Yes I am. What do you want?" I crossed my arms and slouched slightly. This guy was creepy. Totally.
"I do not like you. You sleep in class. However Toris likes you and the other students were out of line. I have punished them, but would you like to speak with the school about this incident?" He got that creepy purple aura again and I took a step back.
"No, I totally think they've been like punished enough. I'll just be going now." I turned around and almost ran out of the room. He was like totally even more horrifying when you like didn't have anyone else around. I got out the door, turned and ran like right into Pretty Boy.
We both fell over and my head was totally throbbing. The top of my head had like collided with his forehead. Ouch. I couldn't speak though. I was still living in like total hell over what had happened Monday.
"Feliks. We need to stop running into each other like this." Ouch. Okay, so he totally didn't want to see me.
"Sorry for forcing you to see me again." I stood up and could feel tears burning in my eyes.
"Stop Feliks! I meant literally running into each other... I was waiting for you... I wanted to talk to you..." He got up and I looked at him. His poor face. His forehead still had like a total red spot that looked like it would completely bruise.
"Sorry..." I couldn't think of anything to say. Why was this wonderful guy running after me? Hell, why was I like running away? I blushed. My face was like totally burning, and I think all the blood in my body went right to my face.
"Come on... Let's get something to drink..." He smiled his heart-stopping smile at me and turned, heading for the stairs. I followed behind him like totally more quiet than I had been like... ever.
We got to the library cafe and before I could stop him Toris had bought me a cappuccino and a cup of tea for himself.
"Go sit down Feliks. I'll get the drinks." I felt like a child in trouble. I know he didn't mean it like that, but I walked to a table in total shame. He came over in a few minutes and handed me the cup.
"I remembered you like this. I hope it's alright..." I took the cup and nodded.
"Toris... you... why?... You didn't have to buy this..." I stared at the cup. I was tired and felt like totally deflated.
"Feliks... I'm not angry with you. Please just drink it. I...I was surprised Monday... But I'm not angry. Please stop running away from me. I can't tell what you are thinking and so... I get very confused when you do something like that and then leave." I looked up at him and he was totally staring at me. "I want to be your friend Feliks. Why do you keep making that difficult?"
"I... I don't know... I... I'm sorry..."
"It's alright..."
We sat there for a little bit in like the worst awkward silence ever. Finally he spoke up again.
"So..." Poor thing. He was totally trying to get me to talk. I was frozen though, and in a bad mood. I didn't really want to talk.
"How is math going?"
Wow Toris. Pick like one of the worst topics ever.
"It's total hell. I can't do any of the work and he gives us like Everest sized homework. He's totally evil." I finally took a drink of my now slightly cool cappuccino.
"If you want... You could come the library after your class sometime. I never did get to explain the problems to you last time..." Toris tilted his head slightly and sounded hopeful.
"Really? God like thank you Toris! I need help so much..." I laid my head down on the table but tilted it to the side so I could still be a total stalker and stare at him.
"Of course. I told you I would last week didn't I?"
Toris your smile is so lovely. Can I just like stare at it all the time?
He suddenly stared at me with wide eyes and another blush.
"Did I say that out loud?..." I sat up and stared at him even more.
He nodded slowly and looked away. "Y-yes..."
I like wanted to melt into the chair. Or the floor. Or both.
"Thank you Feliks... No one has ever said that to me before..."
I was in shock. "Like seriously? Who could not tell you that your smile is beautiful? All of you is!" I was leaning in and looking him in the eyes. I couldn't help it though. Telling him how lovely he was totally just slipped out all the time. I mean why do you think I called him 'Pretty Boy' the first time I saw him. Duh.
Toris' blush got worse and he stared at his empty tea cup. "T-thank you..."
We sat there for like another ten minutes. I finished my coffee and Toris just poked at his cup.
"I need to leave soon Feliks... but... may... may I have... your number?"
My head like shot up so fast my neck popped in like three places. "Of course!" Okay Feliks—like way too loud and totally too enthusiastic. Toris smiled at me and handed me his phone.
"Once you put your number in I'll call you so you'll have mine too." I got his number saved into my phone—I saved it under 'Pretty Boy'—and he left with a small wave and a totally adorable goodbye.
I like floated home and was nauseously happy all evening. TORIS HAD ASKED FOR MY NUMBER! I ran around my apartment totally squealing. Then I wrote Francis like a super long email telling him everything from the past few days—hell points and all.
Later on that night I glanced over at my phone and my brain started yelling. It was all 'Text him!' and my guts were all 'Don't you dare!'
So I totally just sat there for... oh hell honey I don't even know. Probably like twenty minutes or longer just staring at my phone and having a totally loud argument in my head.
I'm so sane right? God I hope so.
So I totally couldn't help it but I grabbed my phone and doing the dumbest thing I've like ever done—I called Toris. It was a total 'oh shit' moment. But it had totally started ringing though so I couldn't hang up because cell phones suck and they know who you are! It's scary. Totally.
"Hello? Feliks?"
OH SHIT. He answered. Oh fuck! What do I say?
"Hey there Toris! How are you doing? Like totally fucking awesome?" Oh yes, nothing wins over a beautiful boy's heart like cussing and spouting nonsense at him. I wanted to die again, especially when I remembered that I had totally no reason to call and hadn't even been smart enough to think up an excuse. Well I'm screwed.
"U-uh... I guess I'm doing pretty good. How are you doing Feliks?"
"I'm... uh... I'm doing good." Wow. So I like can't lie anymore to Pretty Boy. Is that like good or bad?
"Are you sure? You sound..."
"I'm totally fine Toris! Like seriously stop stressing!" Oh yes. Because will that totally convince him. Ug. Please shoot me. Like seriously. Right now. I totally wouldn't blame you.
"Alright Feliks... If you're sure... Um. I'm glad you called. I just... I wanted to thank you for today. I had a lot of fun with you. Even though we didn't talk much, I still had a good time."
"I'm just super happy you still talked to me... Do you like want to go out again?" Damn had I just said that? "I mean...I uh... As um... friends. Ya like totally only as friends! Let's just like hang out or something!" Opps. Okay so that totally was wrong. Damn brain, just say 'Hey there Toris. You're like super hot and I'm totally in love with you. Want to date? I'm totally fine with being the woman.'
Because that wouldn't scare him off. Like duh of course not. FML.
"Oh...uh... I'd really like that Feliks." Okay Toris were you... disappointed? Or was that my totally overactive brain making shit up? Please be disappointed!
"I mean um... Would you want to go out again or do you... uh I mean like you could totally come over to my apartment or something. It's so totally boring with no one home and we could like watch a movie or something." I had just told him I like lived alone. Now I sound like a total creep trying to get him in my bed.
Okay so that was true but I'm not a creep!
Right?
Totally not. I just really like him is all! In a slightly obsessive overly lonely way... Shit...
"I'd love to. Thank you Feliks. That sounds wonderful." My heart was totally racing and I couldn't breathe. "When would you like to hang out?"
"I uh... how about tomorrow? I'm done at four..."
"Tomorrow would be fine... but I'm not out of class until six. I work from ten until three and then I have two classes. Is that alright? I'm sorry..."
"Seriously Toris you apologize like way too much. That's totally fine. Would you mind just coming over to my apartment on your own?"
"N-no that would be fine. How far is it though? I usually ride my bike..."
"Oh it like shouldn't be that far. It's totally just off of twenty-third street. Is that okay? If not you can like take the number twelve bus from campus. That's what I ride."
"If it's off twenty-third then that will be fine. That is actually not too far from where I live."
My heart fluttered as I told him the complex and what number. I had totally just invited my like super hot love interest over to my apartment. And I learned that he lived near me! That totally meant he'd come over more because it wasn't very far! Right? Hell ya babe!
We said goodnight and I totally fell into my bed. It was like the first time in so long I fell asleep without crying, and honey it felt good. It felt fucking great.
