Who Said Why So Serious Novels & Stories

“I liked you better the other way. Before you…” His smile wavered for a fraction of a second before he straightened, leaning back like he hadn’t heard me. “You’ll get used to it.” “No,” I said coldly. “I won’t. I gave you my answer.” For a moment, there was only the sound of the fountain. “You ever think maybe you’re too serious?” Zane’s humorous voice seemed to pinch a bit. “Always studying, always fighting. No wonder your wolf bailed.” I snapped my bagel down. “Careful.”

he retorted, his usual playful demeanor fading into a serious one. "Why?" "Because" he started, pausing to release a breath before adding.

The kind that comes out when something is so ridiculous your body doesn't know how else to react. "Do you think I'm joking?" I asked, my voice rising slightly. "Do you think everything I just said out there meant nothing? That I just said all of that and you can just say two words and I'll... what? Just forget it?" "That's not what I think," Khiron replied calmly. "Then what exactly are you doing right now?" "I'm being serious." I laughed again, sarcastically now, with no warmth in it whatsoever. "You're serious," I repeated, like saying the words out loud might make them make more sense. They didn't.

Why the fuck did she say that? "What rubbish! Who said that I don't need you?" I come close to her and grab her arm tightly. Our faces are an inch apart so that I can feel her warm breath against my skin. My eyes meet hers, her eyes look swelled as if she had cried for hours. "Relax Sid. I was casually saying. Why are you being so serious?" she grins? "Did you cry?" I ask her, changing the topic as I felt guilty again. "Not much"

The response came back, a bit shocked then laughter came right after like this was some joke. “I don’t sound like I’m joking, am I?” Can they just cut the jokes off, there’s nothing funny about this and in fact I was damn too sensitive right now and anything could easily piss me off. Why did I even allow that dude to get to me so badly even when he was just my employee. A bloody damn dude that was on my payroll and had freaking guts to say rubbish to my face. “You don't actually, you sound very serious right now.” The voice rearranged, getting my mood right.

“Then why are you so silent?” “Nothing.” “What do you mean ‘nothing’? You keep saying ‘nothing,’ but maybe there is something!” “You’re not in a movie!” “What?” I couldn’t help but burst into laughter at his expression. His confusion and frustration were clearly visible on his face, and I couldn’t resist laughing. Maybe he didn’t understand what he had said. I paused my laughter when his face grew serious again. I didn’t know why I felt nervous whenever his expression suddenly turned serious during our conversations.

Do you know it's something new and unexpected at all? Caesar was also: I hope you'll say that this thing I just said is just a joke with us. Ayden looked at her and said with all seriousness and a hoarse voice: Why would I be joking in this matter? What I said now is the truth and not a joke at all. Do you think that what I just said can be joked about!!

"Don’t thank me! I should be the one grateful that you’re letting me help." Serena lifted her face, her eyes vacant like a broken doll. After a long pause, she said, "You call me silly, but I really want to ask you—why are you so silly?" ***

What the fuck is wrong with you? “It’s a joke, Mr. Moore…” Serena stated once more. I cleared my throat, my hand reaching for my tie to adjust it. I had to breathe deeply as I thought of what to say to her. What’s with those words and it fucking left me speechless? For fuck’s sake, Gray! Go back to your senses!

*MONALISA* “Oh come on, Mona, I was just messing with you.” Lorenzo laughed. I ignored him. “You don’t have to be so serious every time.” He said, catching up with me. “And what’s wrong with being serious?” He shrugged. “You just have to loosen up sometimes.” “And then what? Become weak to men?” He frowned. “Where did that come from?”
