I had been in the bathroom for nearly 2 hours and I knew people were going to start getting suspicions, so turned the shower off and slowly opened the hoping no one would see me do to the fact my eyes were blood shot from all the crying. But knowing my luck there Theodor was standing right outside the bathroom.
"hey Alvin" Theodor said cheerfully, I made sure he couldn't see my eyes
"what's up Theo?" I asked trying my best to sound normal
"are you okay after what happened today big bro" I could feel water filling my eyes again
"yeah" I said chocked, luckily Theodor didn't pick up on this
"okay good" Theodor said happily "you were in there for quite some time, do you want some food" I wasn't hungry but didn't want Theo to get upset
"sure Theo only if you or Eleanor are cooking though" I said putting a smile on. Theodor chuckled at this.
"okay" Theo said starting to waddle to the kitchen
"oh and Theodor" I shouted hopefully "do you know where Brittney is
"oh yeah she's still in her bedroom but the door isn't locked any more and she's calm down a bit so maybe you should go talk to her" Theo said cheerfully feeling like he helped
"Thanks Theo" I said giving him a smile as he walked off. I knew I needed to talk to Brittney but I was nervous what was I going to say I thought while standing out side he bedroom. After a few minutes of prepping myself I took a deep breath and walked in.
Brittney was lying in her bed covered in tissues from where he had been crying. My heat burnt seeing her like this.
"Brit" I mumble quietly. She turned slowly to meet my gaze. Her eyes were as blood shot as mine. "we need to talk"
"what do you want Alvin" she barked back at me
"Brittney I'm sorry I didn't mean to call you those things I was just angry at the time" I said softly
"I know Alvin but why where you angry, tell me the truth" she sobbed. Half of me was killing to tell her the truth and the other telling me to lie.
"Because you blanked me out for this new guy" I said hoping It would be enough
" I said the truth Alvin we both know that's I lie so if you don't tell me the real reason just leave me alone" this was it my make or break moment rather give in and tell her my true feeling or try convincer her I was telling the truth but I knew that wouldn't work. I sighed and prepared myself for the worst.
"The truth is… Brittney I was jel.. I was jealous" I felt my face go bright red as I said this.
"why?" Brittney knew exactly why but she wanted to hear it from my lips. I gulped
"Because I… have ay um… crush on you," I said almost in a whisper my face turned the same colour as my jumper "and it kills me to see you with… Nick". Brittney smiled and jumped off the bed and approached me placing her hands around my neck.
"thanks Alvin" I was confused by this
"for what"
"for telling the truth" she leaned in a kissed my cheek I felt my face blushing again. She started to play with the fur on my neck knowing I loved it when she did it. It always gave me a warm wave feeling down my body. We stared at each other for a bit when I began to think this would be the perfect time to ask her to the school disco.
"am Brittney"
"yeah?"
"do you wana you know go to the school disco with me" I asked hopefully her facial expression changed and she began to look nervous. This put butterflies in my stomach and I now didn't want to hear her reply.
"about that" she giggled nervously "I kinda told am… nick… I would go with him" I froze on the spot and felt tears building in my eyes. "Alvin please don't cry… look it doesn't mean anything were just going as friends" I didn't reply I was still processing her words is disbelieve. I tried to speak but I was so cocked up. Brittney let go of my neck and I stared at her in disbelief. I turned and ran towards the door hearing Brittney call out for me to wait but I couldn't look at her let alone let her see my cry. I opened the door to find that Simon and Jennet were ease dropping on us. I took no notice though and continued to run to my bedroom I slammed the door shut and locked it and curled up in a ball in my bed a cried.
