I have officially gone crazy. What was I thinking!? Gripping my hair in frustration, pacing around in my living room. Am I really weak to him? No, He just said he wants to be friends...
Friends don't see each other all the time. It'll be like how I am with Tanner. But not really?
"Fuck!" I yelled out. Popping down on the couch.
"What happened?" Tanner asked. I forgot he was staying here for a while.
"Not your business," I stated dryly, hoping he was just gonna drop it at that. I should've known, he loves being all up in my ass.
"Is it about that guy at the restaurant?" I snapped my head up at him. How does he know about him? Does he know him? Did I tell you about him?
The same many thoughts came across my head, and my heart spiked.
"Chill Kan, I'm just asking 'cause the way y'all looked at each other seem weird." Tanner put his hand up in defense. The sweat that was starting to form stopped. It won't hurt to tell him.
Taking a deep breath, I tried to tell him calmly, not wanting it to make it a big deal, which it really wasn't.
"I met him at the club, since then he has been wanting to get to know each other," I said, watching Tanner closely. He seems to be deep in thought.
After about 5 minutes, Tanner still hasn't said anything. What the hell is he thinking about so hard? Just about I was going to call out to him, he lift his head up, facing me.
"Go for it" is all he said. I didn't hide my confusion and he noticed that. Clearing his throat. He turned his back more, getting a good view of my face. Sitting up straighter.
" As straight as he can be." I joke to myself, hiding my laughter.
"If he is interested in you, you can see where it goes but at the same time just be friends. That way no one gets hurt." He said. That's what I thought too. No one gets hurt.
"Also, what's the worse that can happen? Who knows maybe he might give you money." I slapped him upside the head. He can be really stupid.
I guess it won't hurt to be a little friendly with him, then again I might see him at Kimora's party, it would make sense since they are siblings. The chiming sound of my phone startled me.
I don't know what's wrong with me today, ever since I bumped into him I have been jumpy. I never wanted to destroy my phone so much before. Tanner is looking at me like I'm crazy, I just ignored him.
Another chime went off, making me get up from my couch, my heart battering against my chest.
"You thirsty? I'm thirsty. What are you feeling for?" I asked Tanner.
"What are you doing?" He asked. Is he slow? Clearly, I'm getting something to drink.
" If you don't want anything, just say that. Instead of acting idiotic."
"Hey! One, mean and two, you're acting weird because your phone rang. Actually, I'll answer it, you coward."
I ran out of the kitchen so fast, I almost tripped. He already has my phone in his hand. I was so close to snatching it away when his reflexes pull away, making me grab air instead.
"Fuck" I whisper to myself. I almost fall on him, fixing my balance so saw him typing on my phone. Fuck it. I jumped on him, tackling him to get my phone.
On top of the couch, I keep trying to reach my phone but this motherfucker wants to keep pulling back. His ability to go through my phone while trying to push me away with his legs is amazing.
"Ohhhh Kan Kan! You got a boyfriend" I stressed the word boyfriend. I was starting to get fed up with this childishness so I punch his stomach, making him drop my phone as he doubled over.
Quickly pushing myself off of him, I didn't give myself time to calm my racing heart as I scrambled on the floor, hurting my side against the coffee table, reaching for my phone.
He better hope it's not crack or I'll castrate him.
Sitting against the arm of the couch, I moved my hair from my face, catching my breath.
Damn, since all the adrenaline is going away, I'm starting to get cautious. It's fine, maybe Tanner was just kidding and it is not from him.
This is ridiculous. With newfound confidence, I opened my text messages. I was right, it was from him. I read over his text once, twice, then three times.
My brain isn't processing but I am well aware of what he is asking.
"What did he say?" Tanner asked. Noisy fucker.
"He asked me out this weekend" I replied. Well really he asked if I was busy this week but it's the same thing.
"What are you gonna tell him?"
"I don't know. Probably lie and say I'm busy."
"What!? Don't do that! Stop being a chicken. Just ask him why." Tanner exclaims. He has a point. I'll just see what he wants, that will determine if I'm busy or not.
With my resolution I texted Axel back, asking what the reason is for. Putting my phone back down, I got up from my floor. Thinking about it, I'm glad my apartment has a carpet, I can only imagine the pain I would've gotten on my knees from the way I was trying to get my phone before Tanner beat me to it.
I head to my room while shouting to Tanner I was going to take a shower and if he looks at my phone I'll make it so you can't use his dick.
I didn't realize how relaxed I would feel after showering. My nerves calm down, making the rational side of my brain making me see how dramatic I was. It's like the saying my dad used to say 'Don't make it a big deal, It won't be a big deal.'
I should start following his advice. Drying my hair with a towel, I walked back out to where I left my phone, seeing Tanner watching a movie. Laughing like a pig.
I checked and there it was, another text message.
"Hmm? he wants to take me to lunch?" I thought to myself. Alright, hopefully, he's paying.
I send him a text back, saying I was free on Sunday afternoon and I would only go if he is paying. Surprisingly, he agreed.
"What did he say?" Tanner ask.
"We going to lunch this Sunday afternoon, you nosy pup," I smirked, making him pout: knowing he doesn't like the nickname. It suits him quite well if you ask me.
Motioning for him to make room on the couch, I couldn't help to wonder how the lunch with him would go.
"I hope it goes smoothly," I thought before drowning myself in movies. Turning the day into a lazy, movie day with Tanner.
