Chapter 6: First to go Crazy
"Lilly, you don't have to say anything."
She sighed once more. "Oliver, I…" she couldn't find words.
"Really, Lilly. I could just walk you home and pretend the whole fight never happened."
"Oliver, I would love to pretend it never happened. But that's the thing. We'd only be pretending, because it did happen. As much as I wish it didn't, it did."
She was right, as always. "Yeah, but, we could just forgive and forget, right?" I proposed.
"Of course we can forgive. But forget? Are we both just gonna hurt each other every time we fight? Oliver, I'm so sorry for the things I said, but-"
"I'm sorry too, Lilly. I didn't mean anything."
"But, Oliver, you wouldn't have said it if you didn't mean it. A fighting friend's words are a best friend's thoughts."
Wow. She was good. But I honestly didn't mean what I said. Or did I? She was being a bitch to me, so I did mean it at the time. Not that I thought she was one in general. She did have a point, though. "Wait…So did you mean it when you said our friendship never meant anything?"
"No, I was just agreeing with you."
"What! I never said that! You did!"
"Oliver, I remember exactly. You said, 'then I guess our friendship never really meant anything, did it?' I was shocked when you said that, but I didn't want to be the one to back down, so I said 'guess not'."
"Yeah, but I was only asking you what you thought of our friendship since we were fighting."
Lilly sighed yet again. I could feel another fight coming on.
"Stop with the sighing and say something, Lilly!" Ooh, bad idea on my part. Was I trying to start a fight?
"Did you just yell at me for sighing?"
"Yes! Why can't you just say how you feel?" What the hell is wrong with me? Why am I yelling at her?
"Why are you yelling?" she was the confused one now.
"I don't know!" I screamed, making her jump.
"Quiet, young man!" A lady called out her window. "Some of us are trying to get some beauty sleep!"
Then shut your window, hag. "Sorry." I called back. Witch. She needed her beauty sleep.
"Oliver, what is going on?"
"I'm just so frustrated!" I said through gritted teeth.
"Why, I thought we were on our way to making up?"
I grunted in frustration. This chick was literally making me crazy.
"Oliver! What is wrong!" I honestly didn't know. I think I'm just crazy.
"Lilly," I said calmly.
"Yeah…?"
"It's been a long day, and I'm just gonna go home. I'm tired, and I think I'm going crazy. So do you want me to walk you home or not?"
"Well, wait, are we ever gonna talk about this?"
"Yeah, fine, whatever. Just not tonight. So am I walking you home or not?"
"Well, yeah, I guess since I'm not allowed to walk home by myself."
"How were you planning on getting home in the first place then?"
"Actually I was kinda hoping Johnny would walk me…"
"Right, Johnny. Let's go, then." With that, we walked home in silence.
