Chapter 8 – Together at Last?
We where attempting not to show are feelings during the meeting that Jalil and David insisted upon. I know it was important but I had other things on my mind; Now that we where unofficially, officially together we would both be on edge until we told Jalil and David. I have to admit I couldn't wait to see the looks on their faces, and by the look on Christopher's face he couldn't either. He kept slyly looking over at me and winking. I knew the blow would fall soon, but exactly when and how I had no idea. And then it happened, Christopher really dose have a flare for the dramatic. I wonder why he never tried out being in Drama.
"I can't take it anymore…", he sighed dramatically. He walked over to me, picked me up and smashed are lips together in a heated kiss. I knew David and Jalil would be very surprised but what happened next came as a complete shock.
"How could you Christopher? You knew that I had feeling for April. I can't believe you would sink so low." Jalil cried aloud. Christopher and I had been so involved in the kiss that I took a few minutest for the information to possess properly. When it did he almost dropped me in shock. Almost.
"What are you talking about?" He asked. Now generally confused with the whole situation; it now seemed our joking way of coming out wasn't going as planned.
"You knew I had feeling for her and you just couldn't help yourself could you? You just had to go and ruin it for me before I could make my move. How could you man? I thought we were friends."
"I-you-what are you talking about? You never said anything like that to me." Christopher argued. "I think I would remember."
"You remember all right Christopher." David interjected. "Even I remember and I'm not one to get into other peoples tangled affairs. You know I never would have thought you would sink so low man." He said in a serious tone.
"I-what is going on here?" Christopher looked at me in what looked like hopes of finding some normalcy but I wasn't any help to him because at the time my jaw was hanging open. Jalil, liking me, in more then a friend way? This day was just getting to weird for comfort. Well, ok I didn't mind Christopher's weirdness, but this was just too much.
And then something else happened that made my jaw drop and made me want to really harm David and Jalil; they laughed. I mean head back rolling on the floor, gasping for air laughing. Christopher and I where, needless to say, speechless.
"I can't (laugh) believe (laugh) you guys fell for that (peels of laughter)." David couldn't even stand up properly as he was saying this and Jalil was laughing so hard anything he said would have been incoherent.
"I-I I can't believe you guys you are so intolerable. How could you…?" I paused to take a breath, ready to lay into them again. "Wait, how could you? You didn't even know about us until, well, Christopher…" I paused again and before I could think of words to finish my thoughts Jalil interrupted.
"We heard you." He stated plainly. "And before you ask we went to check on you guys when it took you so long to get back form your room. You know we can never be too careful. Anyway, we heard you guys talking and then with the moans we could pretty much see, or hear rather where that was going so we went back to David's room to wait for you to leave and we formulated a lovely plan to get you before you could get us. Basically we heard you guys planning to spook us with your lovely coming out joke, so we had one of our own ready." Jalil finished.
"You have no idea how much I want to hurt you right now. But you know with you just professing you undying love for me and all I just can't my lovey dovey." I said sarcastically.
"Well my love we must really keep our pet names for each other at a minimum now that you and Christopher our official, and may I say it's about time." Jalil finished again now looking down at his nails faening boredom and indifference.
"Well now that our little seen had been enacted I assume we can get back to the main focus." David stated, now moving back into his leadership role. The rest of the meeting went by without any further interruptions but for the life of me I don't remember much after that. Now that we where officially out in the open he and I were sitting together on the floor in David's room, me sitting between his legs and leaning back on him for support. I have to admit I was quite tired at that point anyway and the circles that Christopher was drawing on my hand in a rhythmic pattern with his thumb weren't helping either. I'm not exactly certain at what point I fell asleep but when I awoke I was safely tucked into my bed. Resting quite comfortably, I would have to remember to thank him later. He could be so sweet sometimes.
