Careless Whisper (So Sick of Being Tired, So Tired of Being Sick)
Wow. JuGgALeTTe4LiFe just sent me four reviews. Awesome. I just updated chapter 8 about four minutes ago, and I'm just about dying because my cat just released a foul odor. Anyway, here's chapter 9. Careless Whisper.
It might have been an ordinary day. In fact, it probably was an ordinary day. Nothing was really too strange. Keely just stumbled. But she realized something that day.
As much as she liked Phil, she couldn't like him until he apologized for exploding at her.
Nothing much even really happened. Keely was on her way to Honors English, and somebody simply had left their books out away from their locker. She stumbled over them, and braced for impact.
But she never hit the ground.
When she looked up, Phil had caught her before she landed. "You alright?" he asked her. She was extremely relieved to see that he was at least talking to her. She nodded.
Phil set her back up right, but… something having Keely in his arms made him feel good… feel…
Feel like she had forgiven him. He remembered that she was still mad at him. She probably would've rather fallen down.
Lying in Phil's arms felt so right to Keely. There was something about this boy… something she couldn't place. She just knew that Bonnie was quite possibly the luckiest girl alive at that moment.
"Phil," she said. "You worry too much."
"What? I was just wondering if you were okay. I'm worried because one of my friends nearly fought linoleum and lost."
"That's your problem, Phil. You care too much. You shouldn't. We're fighting, remember?"
Somehow, that was a difficult concept to grasp. "I know…" Phil said, and walked away, hanging his head. "I'm so sorry I hurt you, Keely," he whispered.
Keely's spine tingled at that moment. She had no explanation for the feeling, but… it felt like something had fallen back into place.
Still… despite the fact they were fighting, Keely smiled. Phil's arms felt so right.
His arms felt like home. She never ran away from home…
Tadow! I just busted this chappie out in… lemme see… eleven minutes! Yea me! Anyway, my lovelies, rejoice, for I just thought of another story possibility. Don't worry, though, I'll finish this one first! Sorry it's so short, by the way...
