CH8: Normal

(Noriel’s POV)

“Vinny” I said

he looked up

“yeah?” he asked

“Wh- I don’t und- I don’t th-” I muttered

“are you okay, Noriel?” he lifted up my chin

“I just don’t think this is the right time.” I said

“oh” he replied

“It’s not that I don’t like you! I like you. I really like you.” I continued

“Then what’s stopping us?” he looked into my eyes

“It’s.. it’s just.. I thi-” I stopped “It was a mistake, okay!”

his smile dropped

“I’m sorry” I reached for his hand

“I.. I gotta go” he pulled away

I watched him pick up his jacket and walk out of the door.

“What did I just do..” I said to myself

I dragged myself upstairs into my bedroom and plopped down on my bed. I reached for a pillow and scream my lungs out and started to cry. 

“WHY DOES EVERYTHING WRONG HAPPEN TO ME” I shouted into my pillow “why can’t I have a normal life” I muttered.

I stayed in my bed the whole day. crying.
