I’m shocked when he tosses the joint. My stomach flips as I realize how much he cares about me. I buckle myself in and bite my lip, wishing Eric could drive faster. When we finally parked, I stepped out of his car and asked him, “Do you still have those small sweats I would borrow? I don’t feel like stopping at my dorm.” I hated my dorm. It was so empty and lonely. Once I get my piano back over here, it will be so much bette. Eric nods and swings his arm around me.We walked back to my dorm with quick steps. Ellis seemed like she was in a hurry. I figured it was because she was cold so i just pulled her closer. Her arms wrapped around me tightly and she smiled looking up at me. I couldnt help but lean down and kiss her. I couldn’t keep myself from her any longer. I opened the door to my dorm and yelled “BEBZ IS YOU HERE?”. No answer. For the first time i was glad Cory wasn’t home. Just me and Ellis cuddling on the couch. I walked to my room to get her a pair of sweats when she took my hand and pulled me to her wrapping her arms around my neck.
I caught Eric off guard by pulling him close to me. I giggle. “Sorry.” He lowers his head and lets his foreheadto rest on mine. I scrunch my nose at the feel of his curls bunching up on the top of my head. He leans his lips towards mine, but I flick my head up and kiss his nose “Come on, how about those sweats I’m freezing my bum off” I tease him and give him a slight pat on the bum before sending him to the room.
Sigh, why does she find it so amusing to tease me like that? I ran to my room and grabbed the sweats that were hanging on off my bed. “These will do,” i muttered. I walked back to Ellis and saw ur kneeled down in front my my TV. She was picking a movie to watch. “As long as it’s not a chick flick, babe. Cory brought a bunch from home and I am not watching them,” I said. She giggled and got up.
“Too bad. Notebook it is” I press pause and kiss Eric’s cheek before heading into the bathroom to change. “You promised remember?” I called from the bathroom I struggled taking my top off. I whacked my elbow against the counter which sent Eric’s deodorantand Cory’s shaving cream on the floor. I pause, with my head still stuck in my shirt. “Whoops” I squeek. I pull my shirt over my head and quickly pick up the bottles. I throw up my hair into a ponytail and tug at the pair of sweatpants Eric let me borrow. Sighing, I shrug and walk to Eric, plopping myself next to him.
I giggled at the noise coming from the bathroom. “You’re such a klutz, babe,” i called as she opened the door and got out of the bathroom. She looked so cute in my sweats. I always liked seeing her wear my clothes because i felt like she was mine. She curled up next to me on the couch and dug her face into my shoulder. “You smell good,” she said. That made me smirk and i gently kissed her lips. The movie started and I suddenly remembered why it would always make me cry. My moms favourite movie, i thought. I stiffened but tried to act casual, I didnt want Ellis to notice. This was our date night and nothing was going to ruin it. I will not cry, i promised myself.
At that point, I was just angry at myself. Why am I crying? I’m ruining everything! All i wanted was to have a peaceful...
I look up and notice Eric’s eyesare red. I know he’s not high, and he could be crying at the movie becuse nothing sad...
