Chapter 51
That evening the guys and Tia stay until late. We have a lot of beers and a lot of fun. When they leave I start to worry a little. I know that I'm lying to myself. I can't act the same way as before. Well, with others around it's not very hard, especially not when we're all drinking beer and being crazy. But now we're alone�
I wish Dunk was here. I can always talk about everything with him what would he say if I told him? No! I can't talk to Dunk about it! He was glad when he heard Lee's taking care of me. But he won't anymore if he knows Lee's in love with me. It will destroy their friendship�
"Hey sweetie. Don't look so serious. Didn't you have fun?"
"Gosh! Lee! I didn't hear you coming!" I say scared.
"Sorry," he says and wraps his arms around me.
"You're thinking of Dunk, right?" he says looking into my eyes.
"Yes," I nod and look down.
"He's with his mum this weekend. Don't worry, he's not alone because we invited Ant and Sy over," Lee softly says. I look up and smile at him.
"A smile is exactly what I wanted to see," he grins. I grin back.
"And a grin is what I hoped to see," he laughs.
"You're crazy," I laugh and poke my finger in his belly.
"Oi!" he calls out and pokes me back. We start tickling eachother, laughing hard as we're both really ticklish. We end up lying on the couch, Lee's lying on top of me. His face is only one inch from my face. He's looking deep into my eyes. OMG!
"Lee! Get off me! You're crushing me!" I call out.
"Sorry," he grins sheepishly and quickly gets off me. He sits down next to me and pulls me up so I can also sit.
"You gave me a belly ache from laughing," he grins.
"Oh really? Does this hurt?" I grin and poke his belly again.
"Hey! Don't start again!" he calls out.
"Sorry, I won't do it again," I pout.
"Look who's crazy now!" he grins at me. I stick my tongue out at him.
"I'm going to bed now, had too many beers," I say.
"I'm coming with you," he nods.
I get changed and go to bed. A couple of minutes later Lee joins me. He gives me a big hug and a kiss on my cheek. OMG! I'm glad it's dark, because I'm blushing heavily. I feel his naked chest in my arms.
"Good night honey," he says.
"Good night Lee," I say and give him a kiss back on his cheek. Less than a minute later Lee's asleep. His arms are still around me� Gosh�
The next day goes by very fast. I have to study a little and in the evening we go out for dinner. After that we go to the movie. It's not hard to be around Lee all the time, even though now I know he's in love with me. Actually, it feels quite good to be with him, because he cheers me up every time I think of Dunk. But he can't make me stop missing Dunk�
Monday morning he takes me to the airport. He makes me very uncomfortable by saying he's gonna miss me and hugging me all the time.
"Lee! Stop being so sticky!" I blurt out. He immediately takes one step backward and looks really hurt. I instantly regret my words.
"Sorry Lee. I'm sorry," I say and take his hand. He pushes my hand away.
"What's wrong with you? I'm just being nice to you!" he says offended.
"I know. I'm gonna miss you too. It's just that� I don't know� I'm sorry Lee," I sigh.
"It's okay," he says softly.
"I got to go now," I say and give him a hug and a kiss on his cheek. He hugs me back.
"I'll miss you," I smile.
"Miss you too."
"I'll call you."
"Or I'll call you," he grins and gives me a kiss on my nose. I grin back.
"See you soon!"
"You bet!" I turn around and go to my plane.
Tuesday evening I get a big surprise: Spike calls me.
"Wow, I haven't talked to you for a long time! How are you?" I ask.
"I'm great. How about you?"
"I'm fine I guess."
"I heard about you and Dunk. I'm really sorry."
"Thanks."
"Listen, you wanna come to a party with us?"
"Yeah sure. When?"
"Tomorrow. It's Tim's birthday and he's having a big party at his house."
"Oww I totally forgot about his birthday!"
"That's okay. We're staying over at his house for the night, you can stay too."
"That would be great. I hate taking the night-train home all alone."
"So you're coming? Really cool!"
Thursday morning
I wake up feeling really terrible. Bit by bit I remember last night. I had a great time, danced a lot and drank a lot. I don't see anybody, so I guess the guys are all downstairs already. I take a shower, hoping it will make me feel better. When I'm dressed I go downstairs.
"Hi," they all say when they see me.
"Hi," I say back with a hoarse voice.
"Gosh! You look terrible!" Jamie calls out.
"Thanks. I feel terrible, got the worst hangover ever," I answer.
"Girls can't drink," Jamie smirks. I don't say anything, just put my middle finger up at him. Spike's not looking too good either.
"You got a hangover too?" I ask him. He slowly shakes his head.
"He's having a fight with Nicky," Jamie says. I look up at them surprised.
"Can I talk to you?" Bas says to me. I nod and we go to another room.
"He called Nicky this morning. She's really angry at him, because you got drunk. She said he should have taken care of you," Bas tells me.
"What?" I call out. "Wait a sec� Did I do something stupid last night?" I say suspicious.
"No, no. you just said something. Look, I think you'd better call Nicky," Bas says uneasy.
"Hmm, okay," I shrug. He leaves the room and I call Nicky.
"Hello?"
"Hi hun, it's Iris."
"Sweetie! How are you?" she says worried.
"Terrible. Am having the worst hangover ever."
"Poor you. What did you drink last night?"
"Cocktails. Loads of cocktails� Not good!"
"I hope you'll feel better soon."
"I will, don't worry. Hey, I heard you had a fight with Spike!"
"Erm� yes."
"I hate it when people are having a fight because of me! It's not his fault that I got drunk. He doesn't have to take care of me, I can take care of myself."
"I know� but�" she hesitates.
"What? Bas told me I said something. But I really don't have a clue what he was talking about."
"You� you said that Lee' sin love with you!"
OMG! I don't remember saying that at all!
"Oh great! I must have been so f*cking drunk!" I sigh.
"It's true, right?"
"Yes." I tell her that I accidentally overheard Ant and Sy talking.
"I always suspected something, that he was in love with you," she says.
"Really? So everybody knew, except for me?" I sigh. "And Dunk," I add.
"Yes, I guess so. So what are you gonna do now?"
"Nothing. I'm not in love with Lee. And I'm not gonna tell him I know it."
"And Dunk?"
"I'm not in love with Dunk either�"
"Erm� It feels kind of weird saying this� but you long do you think it will stay this way?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean� you're never not-in-love for a long time�" she says. I can hear she's embarrassed saying this.
"You're totally right. So you think I'll fall in love again soon? I really hope so, because it's great to be in love," I laugh.
"You hope so???" she calls out. "You know it'll give troubles if you fall in love with one of them!"
"I know. If I fall in love with Dunk again, Lee's unhappy. If I fall in love with Lee, Dunk's unhappy. But what if I fall in love with somebody else? They will both be unhappy. Or if I don't fall in love with anybody, they will both keep on waiting for me, making all 3 of us unhappy�"
"Hmmm� You're right. There is no perfect choice."
"Choice? I don't have a choice. I can't choose who I fall in love with."
"You're totally right," she sighs.
"Look honey, I'll call you later, okay? Cause I've got a terrible headache."
"Aww okay hun. Take care."
"Take care. And call Spike and make up with him."
"Yes I will. Love you."
"Love you too. Bye."
I go back to the guys. Spike's phone starts to ring.
I grin at him: "I know who that is." He grins back and leaves the room. I hope Jamie's not gonna make all sick jokes about Lee.
"Here, have some breakfast," Bas offers me.
"No thanks," I shake my head.
"Some paracetamols maybe?" Tim says.
"Erm� yeah," I grin. I chill out with the guys for a while. To my surprise Jamie doesn't say anything about Lee. Jamie leaves to go to the toilet.
"Erm� I thought he was gonna make sick jokes about what I said about Lee," I say, blushing a little.
"Nah, he was as drunk as you. He doesn't remember it either," Tim grins.
"So it's true than?" Bas asks curious.
"Yeah, it is. I don't tell lies when I'm drunk," I nod.
"We already thought so," Tim nods.
"Poor Lee," Bas says.
"Huh? Did I say more last night? Gosh, I really hate it when I don't remember everything!" I call out.
"No, you didn't say anything special, it was just really obvious that you're not in love with Lee. Not in love with anybody," Tim says.
"Good!" I say relieved.
"Hey, since you're single now, I bet you wanna go partying every weekend, right?" Tim asks.
"Erm� why are you asking that?" I ask.
"We're going to a party Friday. Wanna come?" Bas says.
"Who's coming?"
"Spike, Tim, me and my girlfriend. And loads of our mates," Bas says.
"Jamie's not coming?" I ask surprised.
"No, it's my granny's birthday," Jamie says, walking into the room, looking grumpy.
"Aw poor you," I grin. He puts up his middle finger.
"Can Lee come too?" I ask Tim and Bas.
"Sure, no problem," they nod.
"But you have to do something for me than. Don't let me get so drunk again."
"Haha, no, we'll keep an eye on you," Bas laughs.
"Won't Lee take care of that? He wouldn't let Maryan drink either," Jamie says.
"Lee? No, he'll let me get drunk as hell, as he's gonna be the same," I shake my head.
A little later I say goodbye to the guys and go home, as I have to go to college in the afternoon�
