11| alec's story: no feelings included, i think
"Ohmigods that's so cute! You blinked the first time you met her", Zach gushed as he bounced on the bed.
"Actually, what's the thing about you blinking? Why did you do it? Is it, like, attractive or something?", Zach asked Alec, curiously. Alec burst out laughing.
"No! Her shirt read Blink If You Like Me and she seemed pretty embarrassed about it, though I don't know why, so I just decided to give it a try", he laughed.
"Ahh", Zach nodded, comprehensively.
alec's pov: (no feelings included, I think. Or he just doesn't have any)
So basically on that day Mom had this awesome idea to call the Matthews over. She spent the whole day in the kitchen, baking those breads by herself, making the pasta from scratch and all. Then by around 6 o'clock, she sent me to call all of them.
Izzy was sent earlier that day, so I expected them to be ready. I was ready to just pop up by the door and tell them that the food was ready. But when the door opened, I was in for a shock. Here was a girl with Charlotte's hair and Daniel's chin, but had never seen her before, so I decided to be formal.
"Yes?", she asked
"Um, Mrs. Matthews?", I asked, nervously. I expected her to lead me in, not that I needed to be lead in. I'd been at there house too many times. That's why I was so surprised at seeing a new face.
"That's not me", she giggled. I was just like, omg she's actually a girl. I decided to play along her game.
"Well, clearly", I said, acting like I was taking her in, head to toe. That's when I noticed her top which she seemed to be trying to cover. But I could clearly see that it read Blink If You Like Me. My first thought was that I finally had a fellow TMI fan. So I decided to blink, like furiously. At first, she looked concerned.
"Um, are you alright? Do you-", she started and then the realisation dawned upon her.
"Now that is so immature", she said, like she was annoyed. And I burst out laughing, she began giggling as well.
"Alec. Nice to meet you", I told her, extending my hand. As she took my hand, I began blinking again. She just shook her head.
"Eva. Please come in", she told me. I just waked past her into the living room. I could feel her stop and gasp.
Now she feels what I felt then, was exactly what I thought. I knew she was surprised that I knew the way through her house. I just basked in that light. She quickly went in a room, where I heard Charlotte's voice and her's intertwining. I just heard bits here and there.
Then Charlotte came out and we began talking about things that were going on at home. I saw Eva slowly come out of the room then. Daniel also came from his study and started asking me how my plans for the future were going.
Eva looked like she had seen a ghost.
When she slowly walked into the room, I asked Charlotte who Eva was. Both Daniel and Charlotte burst out laughing. Then Daniel told me she was their daughter. I was just like, wha...
Then Charlotte complained about her locking herself in the room. I just nodded and as Eva neared us, I gave her a smile. When she didn't return it, I wondered if this Eva had a twin.
"So what's the plan", she asked Charlotte.
"Mrs. Haynes called us over for dinner", Charlotte looked at me and smiled. And I smiled back.
"And am I supposed to know this Mrs. Haynes?", Eva whispered.
"Alec's mom, darling!", Charlotte blushed.
"How obvious", Eva said sarcastically. And I was just like, this girl's my buddy. Then she asked them if she could skip the dinner, right then I felt a pang in my chest. How could she just throw away my mother's work like that?
But I consoled myself, saying that there was no way she could know if my mother made or bought the food. Then I heard Charlotte mention dancing.
"You dance", I asked.
"Yeah", she said, and immediately turned back to Charlotte. I was just like, what happened to the girl at the door?
Then Charlotte asked me to come along with them to our house and that Eva would come in some time. I told her that I would come along with Eva. Then they left.
I sat in Eva's room as she changed. From one TMI shirt to the other. Angelic runes.
"Right... TMI fan is an understatement. Where do you get ask these shirts from?", I asked her.
"A friend of mine, David Harris, works at a store where they print stuff on T-shirts", she told me. I made a mental note to go there and get a few shirts for myself and Izzy. And we kinda met like that.
(ok, its does have a few opinions, he's not that heartless)
Back to my POV: contains feelings, cause I have too many
"Now I wanna know how you and Eva met", Alec asked him.
"Well, we just met at Dance class, kinda said the same thing at the same time and voila! We became friends", Zach have his briefing on our friendship. Both Alec and I just stared at him.
"Wha...?", Alec asked, completely confused, "how do you kinda say the same thing at the same time?".
"I'll tell you what actually happened", I said, sternly looking at Zach, "Your story shows your value for our friendship, Zach".
"And I love you too. Thank you for appreciating my hard work", he said, sarcastically.
"Whatever. Anyways, we actually met on the sidewalk. I wasn't looking where I was going and bumped into him. Right after that, we met at the Dance class. It was awkward at first. But then we said the same thing at the same time. Twice. And that did the magic", I smiled at Zach. He grinned back.
"Oh", Alec didn't look as amused as I'd thought he would be.
Like, come on, its not everyday someone says the same thing at the same time as a stranger.
Twice!
I scrunched trying to figure out why he was so- blea. He just wasn't in the conversation when I was talking, but he would laugh for Zach's things.
Like, what's the deal with this guy?
I just shook of those thoughts as I turned to the both of them.
"Now you guys have to tell me how you met", I said, looking at both of them.
"This is embarrassing", Alec muttered, his head in his hands.
"Excuse me, this is our story. SOWHYTHEHELLAREYOUEMBARRASSED?", Zach accused asked.
"Sorry. Go ahead, go ahead now", Alec sang. Zach just shook his head.
"You had a crush on Selena when you were in middle school. Don't tell me you listened to Selena Gomez because of her", Zach laughed. Alec just slapped his own forehead.
"What? So this first Selena is not Selena Gomez? Who who?", I asked.
"Selena...", he looked at Alec, who looked like he was ready to kill Zach, "Ravn", and my heart stopped beating.
"What the hell, Zach!", Alec yelled at him, but these were all unimportant details.
Selena Ravn
Pamela Ravn's sister
That killer's sister
It was so unfair that Pamela lived and Maddy didn't.
Why?
I felt like I was going vertigo, but I held a grip on myself, determined not to look weak in front of them. But that overwhelming feeling was just too upsetting.
When Zach said he was coming home, I was happy. And to be frank, when he came home with Alec, I was even happier. But now, all those feelings went down the drain and all I felt was an empty space.
The space where my sister rightfully belonged.
