(BoyxBoy) Behind everything unspoken

Ten chapter

I put the water to boil and suddenly I hear loud music from the living room.

ALANN:"Do you hear music?!"

He ran into the kitchen.

ME:"No, Alann. It's so quiet."

I say sarcastically.

ALANN:"I'll turn up the volume,then."

ME: "It's sarcasm!"

ALANN:"It's All Stars!It has to be heard!"

ME:"Cut it down a little,moron.This is a building.A neighbor will come."

ALANN:"Shit,next time we're going to my place."

He went to lower the tone of the music.

So, it will be next time?

He returned and sat down at the cupboard.

ALANN:"Tell me what you're listening to.I demand."

ME:"Audio books."

ALANN:"Yeah,right...I'm serious."

ME:"Why are you so stuck with that?Nothing special."

ALANN:"Because I want you to start opening up a little bit more about yourself."

ME:"You....are an idiot."

Why would he want us to talk about me? He never mentions himself in conversation either. In fact, I didn't even ask him. But why would he? It's his business. He certainly wants to keep it to himself.By the way, why would he, of all possible people, tell me about that?I'm sure he will find out tomorrow how the other students look at me and sit with someone else.It's not just the students. The professors are sometimes even worse.

ALANN:"Earth calls Victorio!"

I winced at his voice and raised my head.

ME:"What?"

ALANN:"First thing, you overthinking again and stare at the floor."

ME:"Yes, thank you for reminding me."

ALANN:"Stop it.Another thing,water for coffe boil for a while."

I remember the water on the stove and jumped off the cupboard to get it.As soon as I grabbed it with my hand,It burned me right away.Great.

ME:"Shit."

I put it down next to the stove.

ALANN:"What  happened?"

ME:"Nothing.I just got a little burned."

ALANN:"Are you okay?"

ME:"Yes.Nothing terrible."

ALANN:"Let me see."

ME:"No need, really.I'll just..."

He interrupts me when he suddenly pulls my burnt hand.I just hope he doesn't pull my fucking sleeve.My whole body gets hot when he grabs my hand.The burn hurted me a lot,like embers on my fist,but I didn't want to say that.

ALANN:"Damn, look at your skin.It even bleeds."

ME:"No it's not.It's nothing."

ALANN:"That water boiled for couple of minutes there,you know?"

ME:"I'm fine.It's just a burn."

I start to pull out my hand, but he squeezes it harder.Doesn't that idiot know it hurts.

ALANN:"Sit there."

He glanced at the cupboard.

ME:"Alann,I'm not three years old.I can take care of myself."
