"Hey!" Spot yelled from behind me, starting to catch up. But i was too busy staring, confused at the sight in front of me. "Hey.." Spot started when he was standing, out of breath beside me, probably starting to notice the sight too.

Then he did something very unexpected after Brandon had left the random girls' lips and turned to see us. He pulled me close into him, hugging me tightly.

"Jus'.. play along." he whispered in my ear. So i hesitantly wrapped my arms around his waist since i was too short to hug him around the neck.

"Evelyn." Brandon's stern voice called. Spot had let go and when my hand slumped to my side, it was quickly grabbed by Spot, our fingers intertwined.

I saw Brandon's confused eyes stare at me, where i was standing, guarded by Spot and his hand. "Fancy meetin' you'se again in one night."

The girl kept giving me a dirty look. So i stood up for myself, standing beside Spot and speaking up. "Whose this, Brandon?" he turned around, staring at the glaring girl.

When i saw Spot look at her, she started blushing and smiling stupidly, which made my insides boil for I don't know what reason. I tried not to think about it, or let it get to me, but it already did.

I didn't know if i was mad at Brandon or if i was mad at Spot. Or maybe i was mad at both. But.. Why? When i spotted Brandon's tongue down that girls throat, i forgot to breath. How could he, after just, what 30 min that i left him? But that would mean i was a hypocrite because Spot kissed me not to long ago.. And i liked it.

When the girl started blushing and giggling at the sight of Spot, i felt angry and.. Hurt. But i don't know why. Why would my insides boil so much over this sight? So i did the only thing i could do.

I ran inside the lodging house, up the stairs and took a left into the first room i found, which ended up being the bathroom. I felt like breaking down inside i didn't understand my feelings and it made me angry.

Running to the little bath tub, i ran the cold water, stripped and jumped in, angry at myself, and those two. Why did i have mixed feelings for.. BOTH Spot and Brandon? I shouldn't even have feelings for either. I just.. Shouldn't.

I felt my teeth start to chatter since we already ran out of hot water. I didn't care, i wanted the numb feeling to come back to me, making me feel nothing. Making me feel empty. Alone.

I couldn't understand Spot's or Brandon's feelings for me neither did i understand my own. I felt the tears start to rush down my face again and i was pulling on my hair. My heart felt so dark and empty i think i was going crazy.

Suddenly, i felt a warm and gentle hand rest on my freezing shoulder, making me flinch. I looked up and saw that it was.. Brandon. Sniffling, i looked up again and his face kept changing from Spot to Brandon's until it finally settled to Brandon's sad looking eyes. I could never forget those eyes.

"Come on" he whispered, gently pulling me up into a warm towel. He then carried me bridal style, me, feeling the rush of the water dribble down my body. I felt numb, but how could i feel his warmness secretly making his way in?

Then, i realized that my teeth were chattering, along with my shivering body. "B-b-b-Brand-d-d-on?" i said, trying to control my teeth. "Hmm?" he answered with his sweet warm voice. "I'm.. S-s-s-" he bent down and warmed my nose with his lips before putting me down again.

He took the towel around me and started drying me as i stared at him, fixed on my cold shivering body. He then brought his thumbs up and swept the tears off my face, smiling. "A beautiful girl like you shouldn't be crying by yourself, remember?"

I tried giving him a smile, signaling that i remembered he told me the exact same thing a couple years ago when he found me in a similar situation. He then sat me down on Spot's bed, leaving the room before returning with my clothes i had sprawled on the floor.

After he dressed up in my old clothes, he laid me down on Spot's bed, covering me in blankets, instantly warming me. "Sweet dreams, my dear Evelyn." he whispered before closing the door, leaving me confused, yet sleepy. My eyes started feeling heavy, but i didn't want to fall asleep. Not yet at least.

Not until i feel the presence of Spot's body next to me. Then, i would be comfortable enough to fall asleep.
