Chapter 6
The days went by and he eventually healed completely, he had a different feeling to him though, he seemed happier and a bit flirtatious. Sometimes he would compliment me and wink at me, it was rather cute in my opinion. He liked me and I liked him back but, it just didn't feel right. I'm a sceptile and he's a human, there's no way we are compatible.
"Leafa, are you alright?" Brendan asked me.
"Yeah, just thinking." I told him as I sat down and just stared at the walls aimlessly.
"Leafa."
"Yes?"
"Is something bothering you?"
"Yes, a little bit."
"..."
"Is it about me?"
I got kind of nervous at that point, I needed to be careful with my words.
"Sorta, yes."
"Is it about my feelings for you?"
"Yeah."
"It's okay if you don't like me back, I won't hold anything against you."
"It's not that way! I do like you, it's just..."
"Just what?"
"Why would you waste your time on me? Why not go find someone else. I just feel like I'm not right for you."
"I don't think you're a waste of my time, and I wouldn't want anyone else but you."
"Look at you two, how cute." A familiar voice said.
We turned to the window to see Ava peering inside and watching us.
"Do you mind?" I told her as I groaned a bit, I was having a bit of a headache, added on with all the commotion didn't help.
"I just came to check on you two, make sure you aren't doing anything, but I'm not stopping you." She said casually as she smirked wildly.
"We weren't doing that!" Brendan and I said together, both blushing greatly.
"Have you done it before?"
"No!" I said quickly.
"Damn, you two are a really boring couple." She said as she jumped through the window and inside.
"We are not boring."
"I find it really cute that you deny that you're boring but you don't deny that you're a couple"
"Shit, she's got me there." I thought to myself.
"You two are really complicated." She added.
"No we aren't."
"Prove it."
"How?"
"Tell each other you love each other."
"I love you Leafa." Brendan told me.
"I love you too Brendan." I told him happily.
Ava sighed and climbed out the window, she said goodbye and climbed down the tree, muttering to herself.
"So... Uh... Now what?" I asked Brendan, who sat back in his little wooden chair.
"I don't know, I want you to decide." He told me as he shrugged.
"Decide what?"
"What we should do."
"I'm not good at that."
"Leafa, you keep going with what I do, for once think for yourself and decide." He told me sternly.
"Um Brendan?"
"Yeah?"
"How about we "take it to the next level."
"What do you mean?"
"Us being together, why don't we make it more realistic." I asked him finally.
"You want us to do that?" He asked, obviously flabbergasted.
"Did Ava put you up to this?"
"No! It's just that, I want to make it seem more real."
Brendan sighed and he got up and walked to me.
"You sure you want to go through with this?"
"Yes."
He sighed again and sat down beside me.
"I've been wanting to that for a while too, I thought that you weren't even interested in me." He told me.
"I am! I just wasn't ready until now."
"Leafa you know that I really love you right?"
"Yes."
"Then, If you want, we will go through with this."
"Ok."
"Are you sure?"
"Oh my god. Yes I'm sure!" I told him as I pushed him into the floor and glared at him.
"Wow, this is the first time you've ever taken charge."
"Shut up."I told him as I got up and stood over him.
"Now do you see that I'm sure!?" I told him tauntingly as he looked at me in utter shock.
"Yeah, I see." He said as his pants started to bulge a bit.
