40
I went after Cory while the others handled the party and comfort Lily. I wasn't sure if Cory would even want to see me. But I knew Vic probably wouldn't be able to help and I thought Farley and Clyde would be best with helping. And that was with either of them but they left this to me. I couldn't let them down or Lily, especially Cory.
Eventually Cory stopped running. He was near this huge garbage can. I assumed that is where Lily and the houses near hers threw away their trash. I took a deep breath of fresh air before walking over. I was nervous of course but also knew it was going to smell terrible over there. After a bit of breathing the air I walked over to him. He glanced up and glared at me.
"I just want to talk." I say frowning a little as I take a few steps closer to him.
"Totally not obvious." Cory scoffs rolling his eyes. "But I rather not talk about it, especially with you."
"What's that supposed to mean?" I ask huffing and pout a little.
"That is what I mean, you're like an alien to this world. You're so..weird." he says making a face.
"Oh.." I mumble looking down.
"Look...I'm sorry I just don't want to talk to you about this. What happened when I told Lily stuff.... I think me and people are just a bad combination." he says causing me to look up at him with furrowed eyebrows.
"But you're a person too...that doesn't make any sense. And people make mistakes, Lily seems to feel really bad. I'm a bit confused about what happened though." I reply inching closer but he gives me a death stare, so I move away a bit.
"Well I guess you already saw us almost kiss." he says sighing and I feel my face heat up. "Don't be such a blusher Oakely, it's not like you were the one about you kiss someone." he says rolling his eyes and I huff. "Anyway, I told Lily we should just stay friends. I'm not ready to be in a relationship, especially with her...well a girl. I'm gay."
"Gay." I hear leave my mouth.
"Um...yeah, you do know what that is right?" he asks quirking and eyebrow.
"Yeah." I say thinking of Bookie and fiddle with my phone in my pocket.
"Are you uncomfortable with it?" he asks smirking and I see his eyes glisten while narrowing on me.
"No, I just thought of something." I say leaving my phone alone.
"Oh, well...yeah plus I'm not over someone completely yet." he says looking away from me.
"Over who?" I ask about to lean back on the dumpster and move away from it quickly.
"Vic." he says laughing genuinely at first before it seems to sound more pitiful.
"You two dated?" I ask as my eyes widen.
"Hush! You're so loud, and no...not exactly. We were a thing." he says shrugging.
"What happened?" I ask frowning.
"It's complicated, I don't want to talk about it. And this time I actually mean it." he says laughing a little and sighs.
"I think you should try to um..get over Vic." I mumble and he looks at me quickly.
"Yeah, he already likes you." he scoffs and I bite my lip making him frown slightly. "Sorry, I know you don't like him back. I thought that would make me happy since he gets to suffer now but it doesn't. Plus he kissed you...and ugh that love letter I was gonna send him was stupid." he mumbles while shaking his head.
"That was awhile ago... so how do you feel now?" I ask looking at him.
"I now feel conflicted about Lily, Vic still but not as much. I still hate him a little for what happened..but I guess I should move on. Not sure about me moving on to Lily though." he says rolling his eyes.
"But why not?" I ask huffing.
"I'm gay." he says glaring at me.
"But you like her, you two almost kissed...and I'm sure if I wasn't there you two would have." I say swallowing and he presses his lips together staring at me coldly. "If you don't like her...then leave her alone." I hear myself say and glare a little.
"I do like her...I do, but I'm ugh." he covers his face with both hands groaning.
"Maybe you aren't, maybe you um like guys and gals." I say and he sighs.
"I've never liked a girl before." he says putting his hands down looking up at the sky.
"Well there's a first for many things." I say reaching to rub or pat his back but he moves away.
"What if it ends up the same way Vic and I did?" he asks staring at me, almost like a scared little child.
"And what if it doesn't?" I say and he looks at me for a while before sighing.
"Let's go, I should go talk to Lily." he says and starts walking back to the house.
"I agree with that." I say following close behind him.
"So have you confessed to that person you liked?" he asked.
"Uwah what?" I say and hear him snort.
"Guess that's a no, you should take your own advice Dr. Love." he says as well get to the house and opens the door.
"Dr. Love?" I mumble but he doesn't reply, going straight to Lily hugging her as she cries.
"Glad you brought him back." Clyde says walking over to me sighing.
"Sorry we left it on you." Farley says coming out of the kitchen with a cup of water, handing it to Lily then comes over to me and Clyde.
"It's okay." I say smiling a little. "I'm glad I could help, I see you all calmed Lily down a bit." I say and they nod.
"I have to go though." Farley says sighing and grabs his jacket. "I'll talk you all later." he says going to the door and we say our goodbyes to him.
"So you haven't confessed yet?" Clyde says and I feel my face heat up.
"How do you know?" I ask huffing.
"I checked on you two, I wanted to know when you guys were coming back and I do happened to hear somethings." he says laughing and I pout.
"I'll confess soon." I grumble and Clyde smiles opening the door pushing me out. "He-Hey!"
"You like Farley right? Go confess." he says pointing at Farley who's not too far, walking home probably.
Far-Farley...but I choose Bookie..I um like Bookie. That's what I wanted to say but he wouldn't let me inside the house or explain, well tell excuses is what he called them. So I was forced to go after Farley. I wasn't sure how to get his attention and following him felt weird. I reached for his jacket and tugged it, causing him to turn around.
"Oh, um hey." Farley says quirking an eyebrow.
"He-Hey." I say letting go quickly as my face feels hotter, I glance back at Clyde.
Clyde is biting his lip hard and his eyes are glistening. This feeling...guilt pangs my heart. I don't know what's going on. I don't know what to do.
"Um...hello?" Farley says waving his hand in front of my face making me come back to reality.
"Oh...haha sorry. Just maybe thought I could walk with you...so you won't be walking home alone." I say laughing awkwardly, and glance where Clyde was but he's gone.
Farkey's eyes widen a little and he laughs scratching his cheeks a little. "Oh um..it's fine, but thanks anyway. I'll text or call you when I'm home so you won't worry." he says grinning and I feel my face heat up.
"O-Okay." I mumble and he ruffles my hair making me take in a deep breath, while my face seems to be steaming.
"See you Oakely." he says pulling his hand away quickly and walks away, leaving me there...conflicted.
Now I know what Cory means.
