Chelsea's POV
"You feeling better?" Vaults asked me.
"Yea, thanks for asking." I smiled, "I'm going to do what you say and get over it."
"Good…well…um…since all the work is done…do you…maybe…want to take a walk?" (OK…why is he so nervous?)
"Why not?" he frowned, "You don't need to answer that question."
"Oh…Ok…" I laughed and we left my barn, "Oh yeah, Natalie borrowed a book from me so can we go by there?"
"I don't care." OK…now he isn't looking me in the eye.
"Thanks!" we walked to Natalie's house in a kinda awkward silence, "Natalie are you home?"
"Yea, I'm in my room." I walked in and tackle hugged her, "I see you're much better."
"Yep! Hey remember that book you borrowed from me a week ago?" I asked.
"Yeah…it should be on my bookcase." Natalie got off her bed and searched her bookcase, but she was interrupted.
"Hey Natalie!" We simultaneously turned around and saw Danny. I got up to hug him, but Natalie beat me to it and she pecked him on the lips…WAIT!
"Hey hun." WOW WOW WOW! OK LETS PAUSE FOR A MINUTE! Phew…OK…in…out….in…out. OH MY FUDGIN FUDGE SINCE WHEN ARE THEY DATING!?
"Chelsea are you OK? You're like hyperventilating over there." Danny said.
"Natalie…you can keep that book a little longer. I'm going to go now…" I got up and left, and Vaults followed me out, "Since when are they dating?"
"I don't know…don't really care either." He answered.
"Whatever…le-"
"OH PIERRE YOU NAUGHTY BOY!"
"Vaults…" I clung to his sleeve, "Please tell me this is some horrible…horrible nightmare."
"Sorry…" I looked at him and the let out a screech.
"That was so disturbing…on so many levels…" I tried to shake the thought of Julia and Pierre…doing whatever they were doing.
"Guess that means Pierre are dating." Vaults said.
"And…um…active." EW!
"I guess that also means I might have a niece or nephew next Summer." I started cracking up.
"OK…moving on! We're off to the forest for some peace!" Of course we weren't going to get peace in the forest, but I bet you already knew that.
"Wow…today just isn't our day." Vaults commented as we watched in disgust as Witchy and Shiba began to make out.
"I agree. Well maybe we can get peace at Sabrina's house." I turned to walk to her house, but Vaults grabbed my arm.
"Why don't we go to the café instead?" he asked.
"OK…why don't you want to visit Sabrina?" I thought they were friends…
"Well, she is dating Eric now…" Oh? Is that it? I don't care! I don't care that he can scare me so bad and then move onto a new girl the next day…really I don't.
"I don't care!" I reassured him, fake cheerfulness replacing my pain.
"Oh…OK." He frowned and let go.
"Well, I'm going home. I need some rest after seeing and hearing those weird things I did today." I walked away.
Who am I kidding? I care more than I did yesterday. I'm just good at hiding stuff, but who is he to make me feel this way? I shouldn't let it get to me! I've got to move on and forget what happened! YEAH I CAN DO THIS! I already don't love that jerk anymore…so who do I love? Well, I don't HAVE to love anyone, but IF I had to who would I pick…
"Chelsea?" I turned to find Vaults had followed me out, "I know you aren't alright. So…just know…I'm here for you!" OK…I think we need to maybe PAUSE! Lets do some math…Vaults being nervous + Vaults being nice (for the first time ever) = Vaults liking me? Nooo…that isn't it….I'm just going insane! He's more like a brother; we're going to be friends forever!
"Thanks…" I smiled, and walked on. Boy he's acting strange today…makes me wonder what tomorrow will bring…
