CHAPTER 10
It had been five minutes since the fireworks had ended, but I was still staring at the sky, waiting... What? That an alien came and took me to their planet?
I wish…
Although at some point I had to say or do something, right? I mean, Olivia was still holding her arms around my neck and with her chin on my shoulder, and, well, I was still holding her waist, although softer than before.
“Will you ever say something?” She whispered in my ear with a hint of amusement.
"No.” I also replied with a whisper.
"Well, you've already talked...”
I took a long breath and let it out slowly, looking down at Livie at the same time she raised her eyes to connect with mine.
"I just don't know what to say.” I finally said.
"Well... maybe you could say what you thought about it, right?” She asked nervously.
Nervous? She shouldn't be nervous about anything, I mean, about what? I was the one who kissed

Spite.Monday afternoon and I was in the same doggy mood as Saturday night when Livie left me. That night I hadn't been able to get much sleep and when I got to work, I did it on autopilot.My characteristic good humor had acted by its absence, and the clients had made it clear. I had broken two covers when trying to put the sensor on them and had in turn locked the store system three times between Sunday and so far today.“Can you tell me what’s happening with you?” Nick kept insisting.“No.”"Then you leave me no choice but to guess.” He replied with a shrug."I'd rather you just leave me alone, Nick.”“Bro, you can tell that there is something bothering you, did your period come?” he asked jokingly, earning a murderous look from me "Okay, okay, it's not the period, then it will be your beloved torment, whose name begins with O and ends with livia...”“

"Will you talk to me one day or will you still be the same insufferable idiot who has been avoiding me all week?” Livie snapped behind my back, making the sandwich in my hands to fall.I had no choice but to turn around, although that had been a huge mistake because angry, Livie looked even more beautiful."I haven't been ignoring you.” I lied awkwardly "I've just been busy.”She looked at me like I had another head popped out.I had obviously been avoiding her, but it was easier to fake insanity than explain.Nick's verbal words.I hadn't spoken to her since Monday when I was at my worst.The first two days, Livie had been texting, calling, and even waiting at my front door until late at night, but I had done my best to avoid her, a message that I thought had been received since she had left a side of the chase... Until now.Standing a few steps from me and with angry face, she made me realize how much I had

“Home sweet home... Home sweet home...” Jacob entered the house singing, dragging his suitcase after two hours of travel.“What are you singing?” Nick asked, standing next to him."I have no idea, it's the only thing I know.” Jacob replied, leaving his suitcase in the living room "There’s an Argentine girl in my class and she always sings it.”“The rhythm is very interesting, you know? I have a band and...”I ignored the rest of that conversation to take a closer look at the magnitude of Nick's parents' beach house.And by house I meant mansion.The balcony that Nick had talked about? It actually was a terrace of about twenty meters or so, and it stood in front of my friend's humble house, which had eight rooms, each with their own bathroom.Shit, I had a rich friend."A little intimidating, right?” She asked impressed."Intimidating stays short.&

I felt small but insistent punches on the sole of my left foot, but the exhaustion was so big that it mattered very little to me.And although the sunlight was burning my corneas, the heaviness in my body prevented me from moving."I know you can hear me, Mark.” Even though Jonny was practically whispering, I felt like a heavy metal singer was yelling in my ear."Let me sleep, Jonny.” I asked turning my back to face the ground. At what point had I fallen asleep on the beach chair?"That had to hurt.” He said laughing "Look, I didn't come here to starve, it's already eleven in the morning and you promised to take me to the beach so that I...”Jonny kept talking, but I disconnected. I had finally been able to open my eyes and what I saw impressed me, Nick was in one of the seats with what I expected, was chocolate syrup and Jacob was on a float going and coming across the pool, there were lemon shells floating around him.

“Look at that! Jonny exclaimed an hour later, pointing toward the Ferris wheel on the Santa Monica Pier.”"I'm not going to happen.” Nick said, swallowing loudly.“Is the bad boy afraid of heights?” Jacob scoffed.“Of course not.”“Yes of course.”“Not!”“Yes!”"They're both idiots.” Jonny interrupted looking around.“What are you looking for?” Asked his brother imitating his action."Seeing if someone I know sees me with you two.” He explained, putting his sunglasses back on."Little rat.” Jacob exclaimed before starting to chase him along with Nick."I think we were wrong by bringing Nick and Jacob together.” I said to Livie nest to me who was watching the show our three companions were giving. Jonny, who had gotten into a bumper cart, was being chased by Jacob and Nick."No, you’

“What are you waiting for, Mark? Come in for once!” I heard Jonny scream, who was in his whale shaped float, a few meters from the shore where I was."In a while.” I yelled back from the sand, seeing Olivia coming out of the water at that moment."You said that an hour ago.” she pointed out, sitting next to me and wriggling her hair."I’m not into it.” I replied looking away to avoid admiring how the drops fell all over her body.That morning, when I had opened my eyes and found Livie in my arms, my joy was such that I didn’t move for fear that she’d wake up, which happened an hour later thanks to my younger brother-in-law who shouted that it was late and we had to leave right then and there."Tell me the truth, Marky.” Livie asked bringing me back to the present."I just don't feel comfortable.” I confessed."Because there are more people today, right?"“Exactly

“Are you okay? She asked worried."Yeah, yeah, really okay...” I gasped, leaning against the car’s door."It's not to rush you, but... In five minutes, we should go in and...”"I know, Livie.” I interrupted, separating myself from the door and taking her by the hand to walk towards the school’s entry.Maybe I was worried about nothing, maybe nobody noticed that we were holding hands, and maybe they wouldn't notice the sweat running down my face either. They might ask if it was raining and not because of our linked hands."Aww... Look! There are the best of friends holding hands.” Cindy sneered as soon as we arrived.Olivia squeezed my hand before laughing.“He's not my friend, Cindy. He's my boyfriend” She answered without losing her smile.Me? I was embarrassed that my hand was so sweaty.“What!?” Cindy, Hillary, Daniel and several of the basketb

I looked worriedly at the screen of my phone once more, and once again, it was silent. “Can you tell me what’s the rush of knowing where she is?” Nick asked huffingly "Let her be, Mark.” "Today we is our three months anniversary.” I explained, blushing at his attentive gaze. “Let me guess.” Nick said amused “You spent a good amount of time writing your emotions in a message and you have not received an answer.” I looked at him amazed. “How did you know?” "It's your first relationship.” he shrugged "You don't look like a man who gives flowers and Livie the kind of woman who likes those gifts.” Nick did know how to read people. "So, you threw all your feelings into the message.” he pointed out. “That's how it is.” "And she didn't answer you.” “Not.” "Maybe she thought you got too clingy.” He expressed, earning a look of hatred from me "Don't take it the wrong way, but, really Mark?
