He grabbed something from the hoodie’s pockets and I saw two cans of beer. My eyes widened in shock, wow. How does that even fit in there? I just chuckled. "Why don't we drink for a while? Since this world is full of cruel things?" he asked and held out one of the canned beers from his pocket.
Grabbing the two beers, I threw it in the trash can, "Eion. You said you are 'slightly drunk' "I quote."Don't drink anymore okay?" I said.
He sighed. "Okay. Now, let's go," Standing up, we now walked out and I followed behind him. Good thing that he’s not that drunk, that he couldn’t walk on his own cause I swear, I wouldn’t be able to carry him all the way to his car.
Emma gave me a teasing look on the way and exclaimed happily, “My ship is sailing!”
"Snow, help me!" Emma called me in the morning, as it was Saturday and we are off from work. "What is it?" Rubbing my sleepy eyes, I yawned. I really hate people calling me by the morning. "I have...a DATE!" she yelled through the phone. I sat up straight, hitting my head on the headboard but that's not what I was worried about. "A what?" I asked, "Can you repeat that again?" "A date, Snow! And I'm having problems! Come over here ASAP! I need you! I don't know what to dress and what makeup and-" "Whoa there, Emma. Do you think I'm the best person to ask for that? And who is the person? Let me know who the guy is before going-"
Leroy clapped his hands when everyone was already gathered here, "Now that we're complete, let's go guys," Leroy said, slinging his arms on Hannah’s shoulders. I could see Hannah tensing, her flushed cheeks suddenly turning redder, if that’s even possible. I saw Eion tensing up at what Leroy just did, "Don't touch my cousin, Leroy." He said, scowling at him. "Chill Eion, you remember why you're here right?" That made Eion silent and we walked towards the elevator. We came here to watch a movie, as Emma had said. We bought the tickets while the guys got the snacks. "Why didn't you tell me Eion is going?" I glowered at Emma. She chuckled nervously, "Uhm let me explain Snow..."
He was still breathing heavily. Looking at him up close, I watched his chest rise up and down before pushing him away from me. I sent him a glare, standing up and dusting off any dirt on my clothes. He looked at me curiously, then looked around. "The movie ended?" "Yes," I answered, diverting my gaze to him. "I've been waking you up for a while now." "Oh." He said in realization. He brushed his pants and stood up, "Let's go then." “Why did you even grab me?” I said, referring to what he just did. “Sorry, that was just a reflex.” He said. Well, I have to believe him for that I guess. Or I would think that he was just teasing me. Nevermind tha
I was almost relieved that Eion didn’t bring it for the past few days that I saw him but keyword….almost... "I kissed you when I was drunk, didn't I?" That was the first thing I heard as soon as I answered Eion's call on a lovely Sunday morning. I didn't respond to that, as I tried calming down the monkeys in my brain. He remembered! Great! Note the sarcasm. "I did, didn't I?" He asked again but I still didn't reply to him. I mean, what should I say? Why did he even remember it? He sighed, "I'll take that silence as a yes...though I thought it was my usual dream..." That made me scream at him through the phone, "What is that usual dream, Eion?"
I glanced at Eion, who was still eating. "We are?" He nodded. I sent him my plastic smile. "I'm not informed." What the hell is he saying? Is that what he really came here for? So he's still not giving up on Emma and Dax's date. "Didn’t I already said I'm not going?" Mom left us and Nathan was silently watching us the whole time, before tugging at Eion's shirt. "Can we play now, Eionnyy?" He said as he pouted. "You promised to play with me last time.." Eion patted him in the head and picked Nathan on his armpits. "We will after we eat." That made Nathan gleamed excitedly. Eion drank from the glass of water and stood up, ignoring my question. "Thanks for the food, Aunt Eve. I love your cooking." He then turne
And with that, we followed suit to the couple. We arrived after a while at our destination. I furrowed my eyebrows as I saw that the couple was still out of sight. I thought we were going to follow them? "An amusement park?" I asked Eion, "How did you know.." "I heard from Leroy last night." He replied, doing something with his phone. "So you're not only a stalker but an eavesdropper," I commented to which he just gave me a deadpan stare. We spotted Emma and Dax now arriving with Dax's car by the entrance and we stayed from afar. Eion got us two tickets and we now entered. The
Emma and Dax went to a silent and dark place by the back and kissed.I gasped in shock, looking at Eion for confirmation, to see if he saw the same but I didn’t have to ask him when I saw his widened eyes, just like mine, confirming it. Ready to attack them, I was about to stop them but I stumbled. Good thing that Eion caught me before I even had the chance to land on the ground. Our faces were inches apart, his breath fanning my face. He looked at me, looked at my lips, and gulped. We didn’t talk, and he didn’t even break away from me. But our moment was interrupted when I felt myself vomiting. I leaned into him and wanted to go where the restroom is but it was too late. I vomited into his shirt.I didn't remember what happened after that but the next thing I know, I was back at Eion's car with his jacket on, with him wearing a different shirt now. He grabbed a bottle of water in the back of his car and gave it to me. “Drink this.” "What? What
I gulped at his reaction, now nervous. If he's asking that..that means I really did something. I mumbled a curse. "Can you tell me what happened?" He shook his head. "No. Try to remember it." As he said that, he was looking at my motorbike that was parked in front of the shop beside his black SUV car. "It seems like it's that old now.." He commented. I was a bit offended but I just replied, "It's from my dad. He taught me how to ride it,” remembering about the past. Gosh, I really miss dad... He nodded and looked at me. "Where're the keys?" "Here," I said, showing him the keys. Grabbing it from my hand, he hopped on my motorbike and faced me, "Hop on." He
