I'm sorry if this chapter is... I won't say, but the thing is, I don't know how Theodore thinks, I only understand Eleanor better.
Keep reviewing, thank you.
Eleanor's dream
I was in school, it was lunch time, me and Theodore were sitting together in one table.
"Theodore, I like you." I confessed to my green clad counterpart.
"Of course, you do, Ellie. We're best friends, and all." He answered, he didn't understand what I meant.
"No, Theodore. I don't like you as a friend."
"What do you mean, Ellie?" He asked.
"I love you, Theodore." It took a lot of me to say. I didn't know how he would react after I said that, I hope he understands. But I was shocked to see his expression, his eyes widened and he gasped, his mouth was wide open, he wasn't happy.
"B-but, Eleanor..." He stuttered.
"I know you love me too, Theodore." I assumed. I took his paw and held it in mine. But I was shocked when he quickly pulled his hand away. He stood up, quickly, and looked at me like I did something wrong.
"N-no! Eleanor, I- I can't love you! You can't love me! We're friends!" He exclaimed. I was in wide shock, I can't believe, after all we've been through, he still see me as a friend. But I wasn't going to give up yet.
"B-but, Teddy bear, I-"
"DON'T CALL ME THAT! I'M NOT YOUR BOYFRIEND!" I gasped.
"B-but..." Before I could finish, he ran away, leaving me alone, lost, and feeling stupid. The other students looked at me.
"OOOOHHHH! FOREVER ALLOOONNNEEE!" They teased.
"Hey! Eleanor! Got friendzoned?" A certain student said. I said nothing, that's when they started throwing things at me. I didn't do anything, I just looked down.
After a few moments, everything around me disappeared. I was someplace else, someplace dark and empty.
"I'M NOT YOUR BOYFRIEND, ELEANOR!" I heard a voice, Theodore's voice. I looked around, but I only see peer darkness.
"I'LL NEVER LOVE YOU, ELLIE!" I heard the voice again. I knelt down and cried.
"KEEP CRYING, IT'S NOT GOING TO HELP YOU. I'M NOT YOUR FRIEND ANYMORE!" It said. I covered my ears.
"STOP IT! STOP!" I screamed with my ears covered.
"GO AHEAD! SCREAM! YELL! No one can hear you, don't you get it? Your all alone!" Even with my ears covered, I could hear that voice as if it was inside my head.
"NO! NO!" I screamed, I want it to stop!
"HAHAHAHAHA!" He let out an evil laughter.
"Stop it! PLEASE, STOP IT!" I screamed and begged harder.
"I won't stop. Hahaha, you've been through a lot, telling me that you love me, but like I give a damn thing!"
"NNOO!" I yelled.
"Exactly, I don't. I hate you!"
"NNNOOOOOO!"
End of Dream
"AHH!" Eleanor screamed as she sat up from bed, waking up from her nightmare. She breathed hard and looked around. She sighed. "Just a dream, a nightmare." She looked at the alarm clock and it read 3:14AM. She looked at the lowest part of the chipmunk bed and saw Theodore lying down, peacefully.
She stood up from her bed and approached the sleeping Theodore. She didn't want to wake him up, but she felt like she had to.
"Theodore... Theodore..." She whispered. Theodore's eyes slowly fluttered open and met her.
"E-Ellie? What?" He asked.
"I - I had a nightmare. C-can I sleep with you?" She asked.
Theodore blinked twice and rubbed his eyes. "Sure, you can." Theodore agreed too easily, much to Eleanor's surprise.
"Are you sure? You're not bothered?" She made sure she wasn't a bother.
"Of course not. I have nightmares all the time, I always sleep with Dave when I wake up." Theodore moved further to give Eleanor a space in his bed. Eleanor took the space and lied down.
"So, what was your nightmare all about?" Theodore asked.
"I-It was when I told you that I love you. You ran away. After that, you kept saying that you didn't love me, that you hate me, an-" Eleanor didn't continue.
"Ellie, It's alright. It's just a dream. I would never say I hate you." Theodore hugged her to comfort her
"R-really, Theodore. You won't hate me?"
He nodded. "I promise."
Eleanor wrapped her arms around Theodore's big body, returning the hug.
"I love you, Eleanor. I said that before, I'll say it today." He said.
"I love you too, Theodore." She replied and tightened the hug. The act of comfort, turned to a cuddling session for both of them. They eventually fell asleep in each other's arms.
I'm so sorry it this was too short. Those two are too open to each other, that no words are needed to be said to describe how they feel. I hope you understand, thank you.
Keep reviewing, next chapter will be uploaded in the next few hours.
Stan, out.
