Okay guys. I know I have a reputation as a fast uploader, especially for WILY, but I have a life too you know. So stop PMing me asking me where the next chapter is. I'm working on it 'kay? Follow my Twitter or Tumblr (which has my twitter feed on it) if you're so desperate for news on my stories.
Sorry for the long wait and short chapter!
"I wonder if I can get up tomorrow for school. I'm so tired."
"Do you want me to come over and wake you up?"
"No! No, never come over to my house!"
"Why not?"
"Because..."
Gilbert woke up cold and sore from sleeping on the ground the previous night. He looked over and saw that Elizaveta was still asleep on his shoulder. He smiled and gently lifted Elizaveta's head and placed a pillow under it. She stirred slightly but didn't wake up.
Gilbert shuffled to the bedside table. It was 6:30 AM. He searched through the duffel bag for something he could wear to school. Then, he went to go shower and change.
Elizaveta woke up and instantly panicked. Where was Gilbert? Then, he walked out of the bathroom, drying his hair. Elizaveta breathed a sigh of relief. She was tempted to run over and hug Gilbert tightly, but then remembered that she was still Roderich's girlfriend.
"What's wrong?"
Elizaveta shook her head to clear it. "Nothing."
"...You okay?" Gilbert asked, concerned.
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"Well, you might want to start getting ready. It's almost seven."
"Wow, I'm surprised you got up by yourself for once."
"Well, the awesome me can't always be perfect."
Elizaveta laughed and Gilbert joined in. It was the first time in a while that they were so lighthearted. It was great to see Gilbert back to normal too.
"Elizaveta!"
Elizaveta and Gilbert turned to see Roderich jogging over to them.
"Roderich!"
Elizaveta ran over and hugged Roderich tightly.
"Oh my god, Elizaveta. Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine."
Gilbert looked on from the sidewalk. They were embracing. Their lips met.
Gilbert looked away and walked on. What did he expect? That Elizaveta and Roderich would break up just because Elizaveta was disowned and that they were staying together at a hotel? Of course not. He was the cause of all her problems. At least she was happy.
"Gil!"
Gilbert was bombarded by a very hyper brunette.
"Gil, mi amigo!" Antonio cried. "I heard you got in a fight with Ivan! Are you okay?"
"'Toni, I'm fine. You know no one can defeat the awesome me!"
Antonio smiled at Francis who was coming up behind them. They were glad their best friend was back to normal.
"What?" Gilbert caught them smiling at each other.
They laughed. "Nothing Gil," Francis told him. "We're just glad you're back to normal."
"No, I'm not back to normal. I'm back to awesome!"
Of course, that wasn't true.
"I was so awesome today!"
"... Don't lie, Gil. I know you're not feeling well."
"Eh? W-What are you talking about?"
"I've known you the longest out of all your friends Gil. I know when you're lying. Or when you're not feeling well. Just don't forget, I'll always be there for you."
I haven't updated in a while because... I have a new story! Again! "Between Us" is my new story and it's extremely fun to write. It's a mafia AU with USUK, PruHun, SwissXLiech, DenNor, and Spamano!
Sorry for the short-ness.
