Drabble #46: Unspoken

Prompted by: xXAquaMangoXx

Spin-off of last chapter

Patricia

I smiled a bit against the wall. Eddie had just said he loved me. Well, not directly. "So what? So what? Maybe I do love her, but that doesn't mean I'm a bad person or anything. And you say I'm a hypocrite..." He had admitted.

"Patricia!" I suddenly heard, and I spun around on my heels. Willow. "What are you doing?"

"Oh, just... Oops! I should probably go upstairs now!" I smile, trudging up the stairs.

"Weird..." I here her murmur.

I wasn't particularly sure whether Eddie meant it, or if he was to chicken to say it to my face. Probably a combination of both... I have been trying all day to get it out of him. Like earlier, at lunch:

"Wow! I love this new cafeteria food! It's amazing!" Eddie laughed, stuffing food down his throat.

"Yeah, is there anything else that you love...?" I trail.

"Um... Oh! Yeah! How the new ATM converts pounds into dollars! It's awesome, isn't it Yacker?"

"Yeah... Awesome..." I mutter,

stabbing my fork into the lettuce.

Then, after school...

"Isn't the view lovely?" I asked Eddie as we walked home from school, hand in hand.

"I guess... Are you feeling okay Yacker?"

"Of course, what would be wrong?"

"Eh, never mind."

"Right... Well, my mom called last night." He then chuckles.

"How'd that go?"

"Well lets just say I had to sit on the phone for an hour listening about how my dad told my mum he loved her and asked her to marry her."

"That's sucks." He replied blandly. I frown, and we continue to walk.

Even after dinner. This was when I pulled out the big guns.

"Hey." I replied plopping down on the couch next to Eddie.

"Oh hey. What's up?" He asked, tossing an arm around me.

"Eh, nothing. Just came to say goodnight early cause Joy wants me to have girl talk with her." He begins to laugh. "It's not funny Slimeball!" I say, smacking him lightly.

"It kind of is." He replies, still laughing.

"Whatever, all she's going to do talk about how much she loves Jerome. For the past week, she's been trying to get him to tell her that he loves her. Which I think is completely weird because they've only been dating for a couple months but ya know..." I trail off. He nods, and turns his attention to the TV. I sigh, defeated, and join him.

I've tried so hard, and yet nothing. You know what? I'm just going to straight up talk to him about it. I quickly marched down the steps, and knocked forcefully on Eddie's door. Immediately regretting it. "Oh hey Yacker."

"Hey, can I come in?" I ask.

"Sure, not like you ever ask..." He chuckles. I smirk. "So what's up?" I take a deep breath.

"Do you love me?" He's taken aback at first.

"Of course, what would make you think otherwise?"

"Well... I don't know it's just that I heard you say it to Jerome and Alfie yesterday, and you never really say it..." I mumble ashamed.

"Oh Yacker..." He says, engulfing me in a hug. "Of course I love you. And I'm sorry I don't say it enough, I just don't want you to freak out and get scared again." I smile.

"You understand me so well." I smile into his chest.

"Believe me, I know."

A/N: Sorry if this was bad, I wrote it when I was half asleep. Yay... And I'm still half asleep so...
