Chapter 7: Why Did You Do That?
"I have...a bit of a...conflict. I need you...to help me solve..," Laurance's ridiculous smirk made a reappearance, once again.
"Oh? And, what is that conflict?" I felt myself being backed up into a wall... Here we go, again.
"I'm having these...mixed feelings," once again, I felt his hot breath on my face, as his hands pinned both sides of me. "Can you help me with them? Please?"
"What would I get out of it?" I glared at the brunette, pushing my hair from my eyes.
"Something...you may...enioy..," he snickered.
Then, the next thing that happened, was extremely...surprising.
Now, put yourself into my situation. You're lost, wandering for days on end, starved and parched, with no recollection of any of your memories. Suddenly, a hospitable stranger rescues you, and allows you a place in his home. After a few days, you are met with countless individuals. Some who, are kind, others...not so much. Now, take one of those random individuals you hath met- one who proclaims, hates everything about you, for no apparent reason. All of sudden, and out of the blue...his lips are placed upon yours, and he is...kissing you. Yes, that's right, Laurance is kissing me...
I stood in utter shock and confusion for a moment, unsure what to do. What are you supposed to do, when an individual you've known for barely twenty-four hours, is doing something such as this. I've never had to deal with this before! At least...I think so... Maybe?
My next reaction, was to hurt him, and push him off of me. And, you're right, I did just that. Laurance staggered backwards, chuckling to himself. I could merely stand there, continuously dragging a finger along my lips.
"Why...did you do that?" I glared at him, my heart racing.
"I told you, Gareth. I had a bit of a problem," Laurance smirked, walking back over to me. "You see...I have this feeling about you. Something about you seems...off, to me. I'm not sure, what was causing these conflicting feelings. And, I needed a quick solution."
"So, you figured that kissing me would solve that conflict?!" I snapped, not fond of what hath just occurred. "Also, the name is Garroth. Not Gareth. You've said it before."
"Same difference," Laurance laughed some more, leaning against the wall. "And...about the kissing you thing... I gotta say, you're a terrible kisser."
I rolled my eyes, scoffing, and crossing my arms. "You didn't answer my question," I mumbled.
"Yeah, it worked. Thanks," he started towards the door.
"What does that even mean?!"
"Come back downstairs, Weirdo. I'm sure Dante's concerned about you."
I groaned, storming after him. I was fed up with all of his nonsense. Irene, he's getting on my nerves! Maybe, I wouldn't mind being here, if he didn't exist! Why is he so against me? And, why does he...play with my emotions so much? It's...really confusing...and my heart hurts... Why, though?
~~~
"It was nice meeting you, Garroth," the boy, I recall being referred to as Vylad, waved goodbye to me.
"Uh...you as well, I suppose," I stepped out of Miss Aphmau's home, staring intently at the ground beneath me. "Farewell."
The other two spoke their goodbyes, and before I was aware, we were already beginning our walk back home. It was silent, aside from Dante's occasional humming. Which, by the way, was actually rather decent. I'm curious to hear what he sounds like, when he sings. I'm sure it's better than his laugh...
I looked up, glancing over at Laurance. His eyes were fixated straight ahead of him. As if, he was lost in thought. Not that I care what he was thinking about. I could care less about anything that hath to do with him.
"Garroth, bud, you alright man?" Dante's voice broke from his humming, as he whispered to me. "You keep glaring over at Laurance...did something happen between you two?"
I groaned at the mention of his name. It gave me too many complicated feelings. Why this was occurring, I am still left unaware.
"No, nothing," I kept my voice quiet, brushing my hair from my eyes. "He's but a nuisance. That is all. I am concerned about the friendship you two hold. Is it true?"
"What do ya mean, bro?" Dante squinted his eyes, looking over Laurance. "I am still trying to decipher the way you talk. Bit hard to understand what you're trying to say, sometimes."
"I guess the point I'm trying to get across is...are you two actually...friends. You're completely different in personality."
"You know what they say, man," Dante paced ahead of me, walking backwards. "Opposites attract," he sent an odd wink my way. What is with the winking?
"You're...attracted to him..?"
Dante laughed rather loudly, causing Laurance to glance back at us. I shot him a glare, and he rolled his eyes, turning away.
"No, not at all," Dante turned back around, so he was walking the right way. "But, hey, maybe you two have something. You guys are like...opposites. I guess."
Laurance and I? What kind of universe did he step into? Like that would ever happen. Ha.
"Art thou mad?" I chuckled a little, myself.
"Yeah, Shakespeare, I am extremely mad," Dante rolled his eyes, as well.
Shakespeare?
"You're kidding, are you not?"
"Eh, why not. You guys seem to have some...weird thing going on. And...you have some similarities, I suppose. You're both...uh..," Dante looked back and forth between Laurance and I. "Tall? And...um...have blue eyes... You're both good-looking... And, uh...you both seem to hate eachother's guts. So, why not? It's a match made in heaven."
A match made in heaven, eh? More like...something that should fall from the sky, and burn in the fiery pits of Hell. Only, to never be resurrected, or even brought up again. The very idea of it, is horrendous enough as is. Besides, it's only going to keep that way.
Merely, an idea...
