Fifty-four

After blurting my feelings, I glanced at Kevin, who sat there blinking at me.

"Ok." He mumbled. My brows snapped in confusion as I watched him sip his drink.

"Ok?" I repeated. "That's all you are going to say? Ok?" I gaped.

"What else do you want me to say?" He frowned.

I snorted, looking at him in disbelief, and jumped to my feet. "I just told you I like a guy and saw him kissing someone else and all you said is ok?" I huffed, putting my hands on my hips as I glared standing in front of him.

"Did you tell him?" He asked, tilting his head.

"What?" My face scrunched in confusion.

"That you like him."

I gulped and crossed my arms, looking away from him. "No..."

"Then he did nothing wrong." He plainly said.

"I'm not saying that he did something wrong." Groaning, I plucked beside him again. "I'm just saying that... It hurts seeing him and..." I whispered, putting my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes to stop the tears that were building again.

"I know how it feels." He said, rubbing my arm.

"No, you don't." I shook my head. "You don't know because you never experienced the one you like kissing someone else."

"I have." I glanced at him in confusion when he cut me off by getting another can. "Drink it'll help with the pain." I darted my eyes between him and the can. "Trust me... I'm saying from experience."

* * * * *

"You're bored! You're bored and you know it. You wouldn't be here if there wasn't something missing."

"You arrogant son of a bit*h."

"Would you just stay with me?"

"Stay with you? What for? Look at us, we're already fighting!"

"Well, that's what we do! We fight! You tell me when I'm being an arrogant son of a bit*h, and I tell you when you're being a pain in the a**! Which you are, 99% of the time. I'm not afraid to hurt your feelings. They have like a two-second rebound rate and you're back doing the next pain in the a** thing."

I blew my nose as I sat crossed legs on the couch and watched Noah and Allie fight.

"... Will you just picture your life for me, 30 years from now, 40 years from now? Whats it looks like? If it's with that guy, go. Go! I lost you once, I think I could do it again. If I thought it's what you really wanted. But don't you take the easy way out."

"What easy way? There is no easy way! No matter what I do, somebody gets hurt!"

"Would you stop thinking about what everyone wants? Stop thinking about what I want, what he wants, what your parents want. What do you want?"

"It's not that simple-"

"What do you want? Goddammit, what do you want?!"

"...I have to go."

"No! Don't leave your Noah, Allie! You are going to regret it!" I wept as I watched her drive away from Noah.

"Stop it, Lexi." Kevin groaned beside me. "This isn't the first time you're watching Notebook. You know they are going to end up together-"

"Shhh!" I glared at Kevin, putting my hand on his mouth, then turned my eyes back to Allie as she read Noah's letter. "Let me cry all I want!"

I stuffed my face with popcorns and drank the can in my hand. I had no idea how many I drunk, but they were showing their effects on me.

I leaned in to pick another can from the table but was stopped by Kevin as he grabbed my wrist. "I think you had enough for a night."

"But it still hurts!" I tried to pull my hand, but he tightened his grip.

"You are going to regret this big time in the morning."

"I don't care!" I growled and glanced at the screen. "Look!" I pointed as I watched Allie and Noah kissing each other's soul out. "She got her Noah! Why can't I?!" I howled loudly.

"Oh my God." I heard Kevin grumbled beside me, but I continued to cry.

"Wh-why can't I have a love life?!" I sobbed and looked at Kevin with tears in my eyes. "F-first I liked Jax b-but he liked Ivy and now I like N-Noah and he..." I wailed. "Why doesn't anyone like me?!"

His expression softened. He put his palms on either side of my cheeks and wiped my tear. "I like you." He said boring his big brown eyes in mine.

I sniffed, looking into his eyes. "I know but-"

"No, you don't know." He grunted, cutting me off.

My forehead creased in confusion as I looked at him. "What's that supposed to mean?"

"I..." He licked his lips and darted his eyes in mine. "I like you."

I heaved a sigh. "And I like you too, Kevin-"

He groaned, letting go of my face, and stood up, pacing in the living room. "I like you, Lexi." He stopped in front of me. "Like...like you."

My jaw dropped as I stared at him wide-eyed. I didn't know if it was the alcohol in our system or what. "K-Kevin don't do this-"

"No! Let me do this I can't hold it anymore." He mumbled, rubbing his hands on his face then blew a breath out. "I seriously like you, Lexi... more than just a friend." I gulped as I watched him in disbelief. "I-I don't know what and how it happened, but I realized it when you said yes to that... that bastard at homecoming, and it stung inside me when I saw you and him..." He licked his lips, turning away from him.

That was why he said he knew how it felt, and... F**k it felt horrible.

We felt silent, staring at each other awkwardly.

"Kevin..." I averted my gaze from him and stared at the floor. "I don't know what to say..." I mumbled. Kevin groaned, plopping beside me.

"Don't make it awkward, Lexi." I snapped my eyes back to him.

"I'm making awkward?!" I pointed to myself. "You are the one who started this!"

"I just wanted to let it out." He sighed, scratching his hair. "It was hard to keep it to myself."

"How does it feel?" He looked at me in confusion. "I-I mean letting it out."

"Light..." He shrugged, looking at me.

I bit my lip and looked back at the screen. I never saw Kevin more than a friend, and I knew how one-sided love felt like.

It sucks...

"Kevin..." I groaned in frustration. "You shouldn't have done that-"

"What else did you expect me to me do?" He snapped. "Bottled it up forever as you do."

My shoulders slumped at his comment, and I turned my head away from him.

"I am sorry..." He muttered beside me. "I didn't mean to-"

"You are right."

"I am?" He squeaked in surprise.

"Yes... I'm doing the same as I did with Jax. It's like repeating the past. I'm a coward and kept it to myself at the fear of getting rejected, but you..." I side glanced at him. "You are strong enough to admit it at least."

"That I am." Kevin adjusted his collar, smirking. I chuckled and laid my head on the couch. "So... what now?"

"We can pretend like nothing happened?" I offered and glanced at him. "Like we did with the kiss?"

"Don't... remind me that..." He visibly shivered, making me cracked up.

"I'm sorry, Kevin... I know it sucks-"

"Don't do it." He groaned, cutting me off. "You don't have to be polite and reject me, I know you don't feel the same way."

"But I do love you, Kevin." I looked at him seriously. "I really do."

"I know." He smirked, lightening the mood. "It's hard not to love Kevin Eleven." I chuckled at his comment.

"You'll find your Gwen soon." I teased and my mind went to Ivy.

Ivy and Kevin... they are going to be an interesting couple... if they got-

"Tell him," Kevin said, cutting my thoughts.

"Excuse me?"

"Tell him how you feel."

"Seriously?" I scowled. "Didn't you heard a single word I just said-"

"I did, and that's why I'm saying-"

"I will not tell him my feelings only to get rejected and make things awkward between us-"

"Did things get awkward with us?"

"No, but it's different-"

"You said you'll do anything for me to make up." He looked at me sternly. "Then tell him or you're going to regret it your whole life. It's time, to tell the truth, and stop hiding things." I pondered on his words.

Truth?

There were a lot of things I had been hiding from everyone maybe he's right. It was time to let them out.

I bobbed my head in determination, stumbled to get my bag. "Fine." I took my phone out and saw Noah's miscalls. "Noah called me," I muttered, cursing myself to put my phone on silent.

"Now it's your turn." I texted everyone and told them to meet tomorrow at the treehouse.

It's time for some confessions.
