25- Cuddling Is Perfect For Fighting sadness

Start from the beginning
                                    

"yeah"

"who is speaking right now?"

"Aaron, who are you?"

My heart stops at that moment, the guy I am speaking to right now is the guy who ruined my middle school, the reason I was called ' dumped for dare' the entire year, is speaking through Chelsea's phone.

"umm..... Babe, someone's on the line."
I hear him say from the phone,

"wait up, I am coming" I hear Chelsea say from background.

"hello? Who is it?" she asks.

"chelse?" I say my voice breaking.

"amber?"

"that amber, like 'dumped for dare' amber?" Aaron says from the back.

"I can't believe this chelse, thats why you were so happy I was leaving. You always liked him, and you guys were dating then, I would see you texting secretly."

"so what? Amber he never liked you and why would he fall for such a girl like you-"

I cut the call and throw my phone on my bed tears streaming down my cheeks. I collapse on my bed.

Chelsea was with me always like I was with her. How could she?

We were bestfriends. Or I thought we were.

Amber felt a striking pain in her chest, maybe it was just the betrayal from her friend, or that she had trusted someone so much but got back stabbed.

I wipe off my tears and get up from my bed and walk to my closet and pick out my unicorn onesie.

I always wore this when I felt down, it made me feel a little more optimistic.

I change into the onesie and hop in the bed. I take my laptop from my bedside table and go on Netflix and pick out a random movie to watch.

My brother enters the room as soon as I press on play.

"umm, I was coming to serve you dinner, and I kinda heard...."

"Tyler I am fine, I am alright"

"I can see that you got out the unicorn" he says with a Chuckle.

"just leave the food, I dont want it now "

After watching mean girls, I go to re- watching stranger things.

I hear the door of my room open

"Tyler, I'll eat later." I say not looking up.

"ahem" a male voice ' coughs'

"tyler-"

"do I look like Tyler?" caiden says looking at me, trying not to laugh.

He stands at the door way wearing just some sweats and he looks flawless.

"caiden, what are you doing here?" I say pausing the video.

"you look cute, in that. And is that how you fight your sadness?" he asks pointing to my condition.

"then how do you?" I say not bothering to ask how he knew, cause I am going to kill Tyler after he leaves

"I actually have a punching bag" he says nonchantly.

"that's your way, not mine"

"do you wanna talk about it?"

"nope"

"then what do you wanna do?"

"I wanna order take out and watch Netflix, are you up for it ?"

"any day love. Any day"

He says walking towards the bed.

"wait.... But first" I say getting up from my bed and opening my closet, I take out another pair of unicorn onesie.

That one's backup guys!

"umm...no."

"please for me" I say showing my puppy eyes.

"okay,....... But no one can know about this".

I signal zipping my lips and nodding like a child.

He grabs it from my hand and enters the bathroom.

I climb back to bed and get ready.

As soon as he gets out I snap a picture and switch off my phone and keep it aside.

"delete that right now"

"no. Please"

"YESS." he says walking up to me.

"no"

"okay you asked for it" he says and starts tickling me.

"Delete it".

"no..... Wai......stop-" I say in between laughter.

"oka...... OK..... Stop" I say laughing.

"I'll delete it later."

"let's watch fast and furious" caiden suggests.

"umm..... Okay"  I say and sit comfortably and pull the blankets over us.

I press play and caiden creeps close towards me.

"lean on my shoulders love"  he says.

I lean on his shoulders and we cuddle and watch the movie.

The striking pain in her chest numbed as she felt the warmth of caiden wrap around the room. The feeling was foreign, she was soft, delicate but caiden made her stronger. He was there to help her up.

And she always wanted him there.
