Metanoia

Chapter 5

-Alright, you go get ready, then join us downstairs because I'm starving.

-Okay.

I got up, hit her with the pillow a last time then hurried to the bathroom.

        When I joined Elena and Luke downstairs, Luke immediately came to hug me. But then, I didn't even have sat comfortably that he was already questioning me.

-So? Why were you late? Wait let me guess, you lost track of time drawing again? Or...were you with someone?

-Actually...yes.

-I knew it! Tell us everythinng!

-Well..his name is Kai, he's our new naighbour..he is tall, he has light brown hair..

-Brown hair? I always knew that you were attracted to that kind of guys!...continue? Elena was overexcited, worse than she normally is.

-No but we don't care about these details, tell us what happened with him yesterday night.

-Erm...is dad here?

-No, he went grocery shopping with Zoë...Liz, tell us what happened with that guy. Luke seemed very concerned. He was like the big brother that I never had.

-Well he was new here, so he wanted to know new people and make friends..then he took me to a cherrished place of his.

-And?? they said at the same time.

-And...we kissed.

They were shocked. After this confession, they drowned me in a thousand questions that I didn't really want to answer. I just wanted to finish my orange juice and my pancakes, was that too much to ask for? Elena wanted to know everything about this afternoon that she was calling a "date", whereas Luke was asking questions in the style of "are you sure he doesn't want to hurt you? Because your story makes him look like a pedophile." and " you know that if he hurts you I'm going to cut him into little pieces and feed him to crocodiles right?". I was starting to have a headache.

-Oh! You guys please calm down with your questions, I can't answer them all right now! I shouted.

-Sorry if it annoys you, we are just curious and excited because you haven't dated or even talked about a guy for ages!

-..You mean since Connor and Acacia's death?

There was a short silence.

-It's not a problem, you know. We're not going to force you to tell us everything about your relationship with Kai, you'll tell us when you'll want to.

-Thanks guys.

Luke came to hug me a second time, then Elena followed. I was blessed to have friends like these two.

-I have a little question but don't kill me.

-Elena you are scaring me..but yes?

-Did you get his number?

-..oh.

-Don't tell me you didn't ask for it!

-..I should have?

-YES! they said at the same time again..this thing was becoming creepy though.

-..oops?

-Next time, you're going to ask for it Liz! By the way, when are you going to meet him again?

-I don't know, we haven't planned ant second date yet.

-So you admit that it was a date?!

-Yes..Luke calm down, you are scaring me.

-You have to see him again! Today! Where do you think he spends his spare time?

-The first time I saw him, it was at the beach.

-Let's go! Oh wait a second, I'm just going to get mu surf board.

-Luke, we are not going to surf..let's go.

        When we arrived at the beach, Luke and Elena started looking for Kai, with for only help the physical description that I gave them: tall, has brown hair, perfect smile, abs, and always wears a green plastic bracelet, the kind that you could find in a Kinder Surprise when you were 3 years old. This bracelet was intriguing me. When I asked him about it, he only said " I'll never get this bracelet off my wrist.", but didn't want to tell me more about it. I started looking for him too, even though it was difficult, with all of the population that was there. After 30 minutes just looking for him, and after seeing probably all of Santa Monica's faces except for Kai's, the three of us sat on a bench.

-Hey Liz! I immediately recognized that voice that I hated so much. I turned around. He was coming in our direction.

Ugh..not him again...
