"Amanda?"
"Jesus! I thought you didn't come"
I place my palm on my racing heart as I stay frozen in my spot behind the door
He has a black round neck and a silver cross pendant, a black varsity jacket worn over it with the buttons undone and black slacks with it's ends tucked into the high tops of his white Vans
"Why were you snooping around, did you get lost?" He folds his arms across his chest with his right eyebrow raised
"I wanted to use the bathroom then I came upstairs-
"It's the first door on your left downstairs" he interrupts
"Yeah I know, I've gone already"
"Then why are you here?"
"Why are you here?" I redirect the question back at him
"Excuse me?"
"I mean, there's a party downstairs, literally our whole class is down there, your best friend and cousin are down there playing games and having fun but somehow Erling Kingston is upstairs in a room, all alone" I circle his spot as I speak, observing him keenly "isn't that a little suspicious?"
"I don't have to explain anything to you, you have no business being here" he spits harshly
"Yeesh no need to be rude, I'm leaving already" I raise my hands in irritation as I make for the door handle
"Don't leave" he says with a sigh "I didn't mean to chase you away, I'm sorry"
"Forrr?" I lean against the door with my arms crossed, copying his position from earlier
"Sorry for being rude" I nod my head signalling for him to go on "I'm not apologizing for any other thing, you should be happy I even said sorry"
He hisses and walks further into the room
For the first time, I take a good look at the game room. It is a large space!
A large cream colored leather couch covers the centre of the room with a similar cream colored footstool that has apparently been turned to a snack stool. My eyes don't miss the Bluetooth speakers hanging from the ceiling and the huge home theatre, quality ear blasters if you ask me. The gaming screens are two huge curved TVs with cordless mouses and white gaming pads, probably a PS5. How do you invest this much on games?!
My eyes continue to roam the room till they land on familiar noodle hair strands, oh right
"You said you were sorry for wrongly accusing me in class, I accept your apology" he says calmly as he takes a seat on the couch and crosses his legs
"I accept your apology" I mimic him in my worst way possible "why are you so full of yourself?"
"Full of myself? Weren't you the one screaming like a banshee over a mere assumption?"
"You were the one who held my scripts what did you expect me to think?"
"Normal people ask questions not jump into conclusions"
"And I said I was sorry" I raise my voice
"And I said I accept your apology" he says with an even higher note
