Pumpkin 7
Well the weekend had started... me and Pete were on the bus to go home, we were sated on the end of the bus, and I was starting to think about what we were doing that weekend. Of course that besides the obvious we had to pass some time with Gill since he needed someone now! Pete also seemed to need someone now cause he wouldn't stop with his hand... I wasn't complaining but someone could see it, I looked at Pete and he just smiled. I groaned silently.
"If you continue like that I'll have to do something drastic!" I whispered to him
"I hope I'm included on that!" he said smiling" Relax no one saw it, I'm careful you know, everyone thinks that I'm clumsy and that I don't have responsibility but I do have..."
"I don't think that!" I said squeaking his hand
He smiled and looked out at the window... We were almost there, my house wasn't very far from the school, more 10 minutes and we would be home.
...
Pete was really happy for being away from school, I guess being an intern was difficult... After lunch (made by me, and that's why half of it was thrown away!), me and Pete just watched TV, I mean we tried to watch TV! When we were getting into watching TV the bell rang
"Forget it" Pete said on top of me
"No, it can be Gill" I said trying to convince myself
Pete sighed and got up, we arranged our closes and I went to the door, when I opened Gill was there with a pizza on his hand
"I guess I didn't have nothing better to do, so I got some pizzas, and since you aren't the best cooker in the world I though that you guys needed to eat!" he said trying to smile
"Well I may not be the best cooker in the world, but it wasn't me that let the pancake on the roof of you mother's kitchen!" I said grabbing the pizza "And thanks for the pizza"
"That was a mistake, because someone said that I should throw it with more strength, right?" He asked walking with me to the kitchen
I putted my arm in front of him and we stopped, I looked at him and asked, "How are you holding up?"
"Well, I'm not 100% ok, but hey, we only dated for some days, I just don't get why I was so sad about it..." he said trying to smile
"Gill I know you better than that! You know that you were head over hills, you could have only dated for some days, but I bet that for you it looked like months, right?" he nodded "I think that you should get over it and move on, cause well you deserve someone that is more sure about the relationship!"
"I know that, but hey, I can't control my heart!" he said sadly" You know that I had a crush on him forever, and dating him was like a dream, but hey, I can't do anything! But please lets just enjoy this time that we have together!"
I smiled" It was your fault anyway, you were the one that thrown the pancake..."
...
"I don't think so!" Pete said
We had ate all the pizza and me and Pete were on the couch, while Gill was sated in front of us talking with us
"Why? You don't want to see Mike kissing another girl?" Gill asked with that smile
Gill remembered some stupid pictures that he had taken from me and my only girlfriend kissing, and he wanted to show Pete
"Why don't you keep those photos with you? I don't want to know anything about Mike's love life!" He said hugging me
Suddenly someone knocked on the door" I'll get it!" I said getting up, and leaving Pete embrace" I'm tired of hearing you guys talking about pictures..."
I walked towards the door and opened it, there in front of me was Mike" What the hell do you want?"
"Please hear me," He pleaded
I nodded" I know that I shouldn't have done what I did, but I'm here to apologise, I don't want to lose him, I promise..."
I rolled my eyes at him" Wait here"
I called Pete" What?" He asked coming towards me
"Guess who decided to come here?" I asked
He just shrugged" Mike" I said really low
"What's wrong?" Gill asked appearing from nowhere
"Gill, you have a visitor!" I said putting my hand on his shoulder
"A visitor? Who is it?" he asked
"Me" Mike said appearing behind us
Gill was shocked, I grabbed Mike and we went outside" We'll leave you too alone!"
...
"I'm worried about Gill, I don't anything bad to happen to him..." I said sitting near Pete on my garden
"I don't know, Mike isn't a bad guy, he just is afraid... he doesn't have many friends, and he is afraid of losing the ones that he has..." Pete said grabbing my hand" Besides coming all the way here to talk to Gill shows that he really likes him..."
"I don't know, I mean you never kissed a girl in front of me since we started..." I said" And I hope you don't!" I said smiling" But I didn't know that Mike didn't had many friends... he is always surrounded by people on the corner..."
"They aren't his friends, he only has like 2 or 3 friends, me included..." Pete said sadly" Mike is a great guy, he likes Gill since the beginning of this year, he is so afraid of losing people..."
"Everyone his Pete..." I said resting my head on his shoulder" When Mike and Gill started dating I was afraid of being lonely cause everyone was dating and I felt like I was starting to be alone... and then there was you annoying me with that pumpkin thing..."
He laughed" By the way why did you always called me pumpkin?" I asked
"Well, it may sound weird, but I think that pumpkins are really cute, and since I saw you I thought that you were cute..." he said kissing my head
"You think that I am as cute as a pumpkin?" I asked suddenly
"Well, I think that you're cuter that a pumpkin...but I like the nick pumpkin..." he sad grabbing me by the waist
"I could say that I like tomatoes, and start calling you that..." I said smiling
"Call me whatever you want, as long as you continue being here near me..." he said
We were almost kissing when we heard Gill scream and the front door slam, I looked at Pete and sighed "I'll go see Gill, you talk to Mike" I said
Pete nodded and entered the house, I just started running to the only place that Gill could have went ...
I hadn't come to this place for 3 /4 months, this was Gill's place and mine, it was our tree house, we had built it when we were 7 years old, and since then that it had became our special place, we had stopped using it since we were 11 years old but we made everything to preserve it. I looked around and saw Mike sated near the tree.
"So, what happened?" I asked sitting next to him
He looked at me, and he was trying really hard not to cry, Gill was really strong and he almost never cry...
"Well, he apologised for what happened on the corner, and told me that he would never do that again..." he said looking at the sky" Then he said that he had to continue pretending to being dating Anne..."
I sighed" Gill, do you remember when we first met?"
"Yeah, we both wanted this tree to build our tree house, and after a series of fights we decided to build the it together..." he said
"Well you remember that we didn't trusted each other but that we learnt how to do that, right?" I asked, he nodded" Well, I don't know Mike, but from what people have told me hi is a great guy, but he has a problem..."
Gill looked at me curious "What?"
"Well, he is afraid of losing his friends, and he is afraid that if he stops dating Anne, that his friends might suspect something..." I said" Now, I don't think that he should date Anne and you at the same time, but... Why don't you try? You know that he won't kiss her in front of you, and at least you know that his heart belongs to you.."
"Mike, do you realise what you're saying?" Gill asked" If Pete come to you to say |hey I need to start pretending to date that girl s that no one suspects anything...|, and besides what kind of friends are those that don't accept Mike? Why can't Mike start hanging out with us and get some new friends? Why is he so afraid of losing those stupid friends when he has me and my friends?"
I grabbed a stick and started playing with it" Gill, when two people are dating, at least in my opinion, they need to make certain sacrifices, so that they can complete each other, what I think is that you and Mike should talk and find another solution to your problem, you both need to know if your are ready to make those sacrifices in order to be happy!"
"Well, it seems that Mike doesn't want to make any sacrifices!" Gill said
"Are you doing any?" I asked simply
He looked at me" Shouldn't you be on my side? Why are you defending him?"
"Gill, I'm always on your side, and that's why I'm giving you an idea, lets pretend that you let him date Anne, that would prove him that you really like him. Now if he really likes you then he will stop dating Miss. Bitch in order to make you happy, if he doesn't love then he will continue dating her, and you have only one thing to do! Leave him..."
"Are you telling me to make him some sort of test?" He asked suspiciously
"Well, that way you'll know if loves you or not!" I said throwing the stick away
Gill started thinking, I don't know where that idea come from, but I think that it was a good idea! Suddenly Gill got up " I'll give it a try, I mean it's the only thing that I can do, besides leaving him right now..."
"Well, now lets go, I miss Pete" I said" And we have to come here someday to clean this house"
...
When we got to my house it was really quiet, I thought that was strange, me and Gill walked to the kitchen to find Pete and Mike watching TV, Mike immediately got up and grabbed Gill's hand, Pete come towards me, grabbed me and dragged me out of there, he brought me to my room
"So, how did the conversation went?" he asked me, kissing my neck
"Well, I managed to convince him to try to let Mike date Anne..."I said trying to concentrate on another thing besides Pete
He stopped immediately after I speak" I managed to convince Mike to only date Gil"
Now it was my turn, I started kissing his neck" Well, lets leave that to them... I just hope that they make up quickly..."
"You know that that isn't fair..." Pete said, " I'm the one that usually do that..."
"Do what?" I asked continuing with the kissing
"You know dam right what!" he said putting his hands on my waist" Mike I'm afraid..."
I thought that he was joking, so I continued kissing" Really, he said pulling my head, so that I looked at him" What's wrong?" I asked
"Well, while I was talking to Mike downstairs, I realised that I was going to a place that I'm afraid to go..." he said seriously
"Where?" I asked confused
"Mike, I think that I'm falling... no...I am in love by you!" he said looking straight at me I didn't know what to say, I was taken back by that, the only thing that occurred me was to kiss him, and I did it, but this time it was special, it was a kiss where he was trying to show his love, I was so happy, when we parted I had to ask" Why are you afraid?"
"Cause, I just want to be next to you, and that's not gonna be always possible.." he said sadly
"Pete, then I think that both of us are afraid..." I said hugging him
