Chapter 35
I sat on the couch, quietly listening while Colby answered a question about whether he'd rather have a giraffe neck or penguin feet. When he first answered he said 'are you kidding me' and I almost said 'no, thats your job', but I held my tongue. Metaphorically of course, that would have been incredibly weird if I actually held onto my tongue.
I'm still not entirely sure what happened this morning, so as long as Colby acts like nothing happened, so will I.
We've been filming a 'would you rather' video for over two hours now, and it's only taking so long because we keep getting distracted. Whether it be because we ramble on about the would you rather, or because we'd get off track and flirt. There werent even that many questions, so it shouldnt take as long as it is. There are Only around ten.
"Ok, Golbach, would you rather be sexually attracted to fruit or have Cheetos dust permanently stuck on your fingers?" He asked. A smile spread across his face as he read that.
If I was sexually attracted to fruit, I'd never have to deal with liking Colby or get a little upset with the 'just kiddings' because I'd rather be eating fruit.
"Definitely attracted to fruit because any time I wanted to eat a fruit I'd like" I pretended to weirdly eat something, which made Colby look at me weirdly. "but with cheetos fingers, that sucks dude, cheetos fingers sucks"
I could tell Colby hated me calling him dude just by how he'd always correct me with '*bolby', and I could especially tell he hated it because he cringed when I called him it.
"If your someday wife—" I began. I looked at Colby and he furrowed his brows and awkwardly rocked back and forth a little. "Gave birth to a half human/half cat what would you name it and why?" Oh god.
He smiled awkwardly and licked his lips while trying to think of an answer. "Definitely Leslie." I burst into a fit of laughter because I answered a previous question saying I'd change my name to Leslie, and thats what hes referencing. "No, I'm Just kidding, I'm kidding."
Of course you are. Excuse me while I calmly try to push my bitterness aside.
"Well then what would you name them?" I asked, waiting for a real response.
"Uh—I'd probably name it Saber. Because if you had a kid/cat and you named it Saber, could you imagine it going around school like" he made weird crawling movements as he spoke. "'my names saber', and hes got like the fangs and like the claws tha—"
"Would he be able to like to go to school and stuff?" I asked, cutting him off
"Yeah! If he's half human/half cat like being saber. Thats awesome" he sounded oddly excited about this.
I smiled at his response. He's so weird, its cute though. He kept saying 'like' between pretty much every few words and that was so adorable.
"Alright well, I think this would be a good point to end the video" I told him.
He nodded and as soon as we filmed out outro. he got up to turn the camera off. I got up to get his clothing from the dyer and when I walked back over to him, I traded out his clothing for the camera.
"you've got to go to class pretty soon, I'll edit the video and then post it sunday, ok?" I took out the SD card and set the camera down on the arm rest of the couch.
"Um— yeah ok. Well I guess, bye Golbach." He said, visibly disappointed.
I felt bad for basically kicking him out, so I hugged him and buried my head in his neck. He wrapped his arms around me and played with the hem of the back of my shirt.
This is the longest goodbye hug I've ever had. The most awkward one too.
"just kidding" he whispered into my ear. Before letting me go, kissing my cheek and walking towards the door.
After he left, I held my hand to my cheek and sighed deeply and sat back down onto the couch, leaning back onto it, covering my face with my hands.
Colby makes no sense to me.
