LilLadyLexi Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 "How long are you back for?" Charlotte called out. Link to comment
Wannatripbaby Posted July 23, 2018 Author Share Posted July 23, 2018 "About 20 more minutes." He waited a brief moment before asking "Am I gonna see you before I leave?" @RainbowEclipse Link to comment
LilLadyLexi Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 "Probably not. It's really nice in here!" Link to comment
Wannatripbaby Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 He sighs. She's avoiding me. Did I do something wrong again? "I guess that's your choice." He walks away. @RainbowEclipse Link to comment
Wannatripbaby Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 Bump. @RainbowEclipse Link to comment
LilLadyLexi Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 (apologies. I'm in Newcastle and signal at my Hotel is less than desired) I still don't know what to say to you Cal, other than you're treating me like a child. I'm not that much younger than you. I got out the bath and started to drain it sighing Link to comment
Wannatripbaby Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 (Ah. Understandable, I was in a similar situation a few weeks ago. Take your time.) How am I supposed to help Charlotte if she keeps shutting me out? I'm trying my best but- His head snapped to the bathroom door as you opened it. She changed her mind? Huh. That's good! Maybe she's not out of my reach yet? "There she is." @RainbowEclipse Link to comment
LilLadyLexi Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 "oh uh.... I thought you'd gone. Aren't you going to be late?" Link to comment
Wannatripbaby Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 (Oh, I assumed you meant she felt bad about blowing off Cal so she got out early?) "Oh, I was just about to leave. You caught me just in time." @RainbowEclipse Link to comment
LilLadyLexi Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I went silent. I didn't know what to say I mean. On one hand, his hospitality was amazing but on the other. He was still treating me like a toddler... Link to comment
Wannatripbaby Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 "You're, uhh, looking better than you did this morning. How do you feel?" @RainbowEclipse Link to comment
LilLadyLexi Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 "alot better. The bath helped I think" Link to comment
Wannatripbaby Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 "That's good. I'm glad your feeling better. But now I really have to go." He made a gesture like he wasn't sure if he should hug you or shake your hand, finding neither to be quite appropriate at the moment. So he just awkwardly turned around to fetch his keys from the counter. @RainbowEclipse Link to comment
LilLadyLexi Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Charlotte practically ran into him wrapping her arms round him and bursting out into tears. It was all a bit too hard and a bit too much for her to process Link to comment
Wannatripbaby Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 "Whoa! Charlotte! I..." to say the sudden hug took him by surprising would be an understatement for sure. But he didn't think it best to ask her while she was crying so he just wrapped his arms around her, holding her close and trying to convey his emotional support without words. @RainbowEclipse Link to comment
LilLadyLexi Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 "I just don't know what to do! Help me Cal..." Is what might have been heard without the tears. But it just sounded like a bunch of mumblimg Link to comment
Wannatripbaby Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 Surprisingly, he actually caught the gist of what you were trying to say. "There, there. It's going to be okay, Charlotte. I'm gonna help you any way I can. I promise." He spoke all of these things softly into your ear as he rubbed your back gently with one hand while the other held you tight against him. @RainbowEclipse Link to comment
LilLadyLexi Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 "It. It's Just. I'm fucking seventeen Cal. Well Eighteen next month. but this shouldn't be happening to me!. It fucking sucks" Link to comment
Wannatripbaby Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 He wanted to say that things would get better. That she shouldn't let herself get so worked up over this stuff. He wanted to say a hundred different things. But he knew that none of them would bring you any peace about your situation. So instead all he could think to say was: "I'm so sorry all this is happening to you, Charlotte." @RainbowEclipse Link to comment
LilLadyLexi Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Charlotte sighed. "You should get to class. I'm gonna make you late" Link to comment
Wannatripbaby Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 "I can afford to miss this class. You're much more important, Charlotte." Part of the joys of being a mostly-Straight-A student is the ability to skip the odd class without having any real reprocussions. I can always pick up any homework they assigned later. @RainbowEclipse Link to comment
LilLadyLexi Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 "are you sure? I don't want you to get in trouble.." Link to comment
Wannatripbaby Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 "I'm sure. I'll call them up lated and say I had a family emergency. And it wouldn't really be a lie because I do think of you like a sister." @RainbowEclipse Link to comment
LilLadyLexi Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 "oh okay. I really don't know what to do. And I always know what to do. I'm a know it all! FUCK" Link to comment
Wannatripbaby Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 He chuckles a little. "Congratulations. You have just come face to face with the realization of your own ignorance." @RainbowEclipse Link to comment
