I stayed silent the entire time we were walking.

I don't even know why Cloud Guy wanted to hold my hand, first of all. Does he have feelings for me? What? No. Definitely not. What if he does? Then I'll just reject him. I already love Sunny. Oooh I love Love Triangles. No. There is no Love Triangle. You sure about that? Yes. No. I don't know.

"Beatrice?" Suddenly, my thoughts popped like a bubble. I looked at Sunny who was on the other side of Cloud Guy. He looked worried. "You alright?" He asked.
"Of course," I lied. I started feeling dizzy.

"She's fine," Cloud Guy said all of a sudden and smiled. How would he know that?

"Hold up, hold up..." Sunny stopped us in our tracks and stood in front of us. He had his arms crossed and he glared at Cloud Guy. "Ever since you came, Beatrice started acting weird. I mean, don't you think it's a bit awkward that you want to hold her hand when she doesn't?"

I kept quiet and gazed at Sunny. I'm so proud at this moment I can faint.

"And don't you think there's more to that story?" Cloud Guy asked and finally let go of my hand. I secretly applied hand sanitizer to my left hand that was screaming, "I AM FREED!"
"What are you talking about?" Sunny looked more furious at Cloud Guy. Should I intervene? I just don't know... But Sunny looks like he's about to burst No. stay. It'll only make things worse.
"I'm just saying that maybe you should go talk to your girlfriend," CG pushed Sunny towards me. Then he hopped away to a nearby tree and hid there like we couldn't see him.

Sunny sighed frustratedly and leaned towards my ear and whispered, "I don't trust that cloud. He's obviously plotting something," he said.

"I don't trust him, either. But he knows the way to Bergen Town," (A/N: DE WAY) I said, and watched Cloud Guy giggling like a school troll who was in their teenage years. Wait, what if he put something in your hand? Maybe that's why he wanted to hold it?!  Calm down No! No! Sunny's right, Cloud Guy is scheming something bad! I sighed in defeat, "Cloud Guy. We decided to... go by ourselves."

"That's okay," He came out from behind the tree. "I was actually hoping for it."
"What do you mean?" We both asked. Sunny looked a bit nervous.

"I just decided to give Sunny a little push to finally-,"
"Ohhh-kay that's enough." Sunny chuckled nervously, pushing Cloud Guy away. I raised an eyebrow. Cloud Guy laughed, "Well, Cloud Guy Out. Ciao," he waved and then walked away backwards while making echo noises as he disappeared into the shadows.

"Sunny," I said, turning to him. "What was CG talking about?" I crossed my arms. Sunny just shrugged and gave a weird smile. I miss his goofy smile already... Somehow, it was quiet between us. I tried thinking of a way to start a conversation, but I didn't even have the guts to. Maybe Sunny doesn't want to talk with you?
Impossible. He's your friend. Of course he'll want to talk to you.

"I'm bored," Sunny held his waist and stood up straight with his chest pumped out. He had a confident smile, then he took out a little ukulele and smiled at me. "Captain Beatrice, would you like for me to play some ukulele music?"
"Um, Sunny—,"
"Please?" Sunny pouted childishly.
"But your arm—,"
"I can still play, B."
"But it's injured because of the stick—,"
"For goodness sake, Beatrice. I'm fine," that's when I stopped talking. He's had enough of my nagging. Besides, I want to keep him happy like he once used to.
"I—I'm sorry, I'm just..." He looked away. I shook my head with a smile and said, "It's alright, Sun," I lifted up the ukulele from his arms that were slowly lowering down. "Cmon, play a song."

I smiled. And he smiled back.

As we walked through the forest to the Bergen's habitat or whatever they call it, Sunny played songs and music that were quite catchy. Sometimes, he would sing a bit. And dance. Then sometimes he would ask me to join and I would refuse because admittedly, I sucked at dancing. Sunny took me to dance classes years ago but turns out that they didn't pay off. So much for dancing with your husband after a wedding... even if your husband is a great dancer and singer. Maybe I should have dancing classes after this...

"'Cause darlin' you're perfect tonight," Sunny sang softly before he finally stopped. Sometimes, it can get annoying if you were friends with a boy with endless fun. That last part echoed in my head. Somehow, I couldn't get it out...
"Beatrice?"
"Yeah?" I looked at him.
"You don't think that... maybe Cloud Guy MIGHT like you...?" He rubbed his arm and looked away. I thought about it for a second. No. No. Nope. Nada.
"That's ridiculous. Sure, I've know him for a few years now but no. I'm not interested in him. And he's not interested in me. I—uh, like someone else."

Oh god. Oh god. What did you just say?! You just admitted that you have a crush on someone! And that someone is him! Shut your mouth now!

"Oh really," he smirked and nudged me with his elbow. Somehow, I could see the hurt in his eyes. "Tell me more about this 'someone else' guy."
Oh, he has no idea...
"Ohhh-kay. Well, there's not much I can say about him but... I think, no, I KNOW he's an amazing guy. I've been with him for years now. He always makes me smile, not when he's looking of course. He always has this cute and goofy grin that just wants to make you skip a heart beat. He could sometimes be annoying and loud," I chuckled. My cheeks burned.

"But I just love him for some reason. I don't know why, but I'm starting to get closer to knowing." Then after a while, Sunny was quiet. I looked at him and saw that he was speechless. Obviously. Great, he knows that you're talking about him. Great job, Beatrice. Have a good life while it lasts.

"That guy," He snickered. "is incredibly stupid that he doesn't know you love him." Oh god, why do you have to be so oblivious?

"I mean, surely he's got some kind of sign." He said and chuckled. "I wish you the best of luck. I'm sure he likes you back. Don't you worry, because I will find him. Then maybe tell him some hilarious secrets and memories you and me had."
"You're gonna make him jealous?" I laughed.
"If it'll only motivate him to run after you." He replied and showed me that goofy and crooked smile I've known and fell for all too long.
