Arlette blew gently breeze on her face while Channel shut her eyes tight. She opened it slowly and met Arlette staring at her. She rubbed her eyes with both hands before sitting up, she opened her eyes again to confirm who she saw.
“Arlette!!!!!!”. She screamed pulling the duvet away from her body. She hugged her tight not ready to let go of her while Arlette smiled wrapping her arms around her.
She finally broke the hug while Arlette pulled her cheek gently. She giggled looking around the room for Rocky.
“You didn’t even ask about my whereabout”. Arlette said and Channel shook her head repeatedly.
“I did and Reggie told me you went to see your parents”. She replied and Arlette nod.
“Are you still feeling pains?”. Arlette asked and she shook her head.
“It’s all gone. The pains comes when I stress the hand or use it for something stressful or that requires strength”. She replied and Arlette stared at her for a while.
“What work do you do that requires strength?”. She asked folding her arms under her Břě@šť.
“Nothing. I’ve done nothing actually”. She replied smiling sheepishly.
“You are seriously not okay”. Arlette replied and she giggled softly
“What’s going on between the both of you?”. Arlette asked and she blushed a little.
“Who and who?”. She asked pretending not to know what she is talking about.
“Don’t act like you don’t know anything. I mean you and Rocky”. She asked and she giggled again while Arlette smiled.
“Nothing”. She replied and Arlette coughed lightly while Channel hissed
“How come you guys aren’t a thing when he kissed you right in front of me?”. Arlette asked still staring at her.
“How are your parents?”. She asked changing the topic.
“Don’t you dare skip my question. Now answer me”. Arlette said and she sighed sadly.
“I wish we were but we aren’t”. She replied and Arlette smirked whispering something into her ear.
Arlette winked and left the room leaving the her in the room.

She walked along the passage when a hand dragged her into a room covering her mouth when she tried screaming.
The figure pushed her gently to the door while she looked up. She was about talking when she saw Reggie staring at her. She looked down immediately unable to face him.
He raised her face with a finger crashing his lips on hers. He held her waist tight and firm kissing her hungrily. She wrapped her hands around his neck giving in to his pace.
He raised her legs and she wrapped it around his waist sending signal to his third leg.
She dipped her hands into his hair pulling it gently. He groaned into the kiss as his hands roamed around her back with each others tongue fighting for dominance.
She broke the kiss and dropped her legs as they stared at each other passionately while tears dropped from her eyes. He wiped them and buried her face in his chest.
She sniffed repeatedly and raised her head from his chest.
“I’m sorry”. She said and he held her face with both hands
“I should be the one saying I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have walked out even when I knew that’s what I want. I just couldn’t stop my heart from bleeding because it’s bled so much when you popped the word. The word I’ve been waiting years to hear. I finally heard it in the dumbest way ever”. He said and wiped the tears thr_@tening to fall from her eyes while she pulled him into a tight hug.
“I was blinded by obsession and I never knew I wasn’t meant for Resse. I wasn’t even that hurt when I saw them kiss….”
“Wait….you saw them?”. He asked and she nod while he brushed her hair with his hands.
“Will you be my girlfriend?”. He asked and she gasped staring at him with teary eyes. He smiled and pecked her lips repeatedly.
“I’m still waiting for my answer”. He said again and she nod covering her face with both hands. He removed her hands and kissed her face round while she giggled softly.
“Yes. I’ll be your girlfriend”. She replied and he carried her rolling her round the room while she kept giggling like a kid.
“Do you know I can scream it to the world right now?”. He asked and she looked away blushing really hard.
He dropped her on the table not far from where they have been standing. He stood in between her legs resting his head on her chest while she played with his hair.
“It’s feels so good to have a partner”. He said and sighs will she kissed his hair.
“Aren’t you meant to be with the boys?”. She asked and he raised his head immediately.
“I totally forget. I’ll see you later and don’t leave until you see me”. He said and she nod. He pecked her cheeks before leaving the room while she blushed heavily.
She ran out of the room going back into Rocky’s room. She met Channel sitting on the bed like a priest dressed in another hoodie.
She ran to the bed and Channel turned to the other side of the bed. She chuckled pulling her face back to her direction.
“What?”. Channel asked rolling her eyes.
“Guess what?”. She asked and Channel groaned chewing her inner cheek softly.
“I can’t just tell me”. Channel said and Arlette poked her nose gently.
“I’m now someone’s heartbeat!!!!!”. She replied and Channel widened her eyes.
“Really? Is he your crush?”. Channel asked and she shook her head negatively.
“Someone better, sweeter and cuter than my crush”. She replied and Channel coughed lightly.
“So who is he?”. Channel asked curiously.
“Reggie!!!!”. She screamed and Channel gasped immediately covering her mouth with both hands.
“Tell me you are joking”. Channel said and she shook her head negatively.
“No I’m not and top it all, we just had our first kiss”. She replied and Channel smiled sadly.
Arlette noticed it and pat her back slowly. Channel looked up giving her a cute smile.
“Don’t worry, he will come around. He is just a shy gentle boy. I’m sure he loves you but too shy to admit it”. She said and channel nod releasing another smile.
“Let’s party!!!!”. Channel screamed jumping on the bed while she smiled at her childish behavior.
