Abby~
After I heard Alissa was sleeping, I opened the door very quietly, and went out the door, closing it as I left. Lucky me, I still have the key.
I walked around the hallway where Peirce's room was and I saw this girl leaving a room. I walked by and saw Peirce was in that room. When the girl left, I started to walk into the room, but Peirce was exiting the room. We hit each other and I yelped. I started to fall back, but he grabbed my arm and kept me steady. I looked down at his arm touching mine. I wonder if what Alissa was saying was true...I wonder if Alissa's jealous, I wonder if the thinks this will get in the way of our friendship...
"I'm so sorry, I wasn't looking at all! Are you alright?" he blurted out.
I smiled slightly, "Yeah, I'm fine, Pierce. Don't worry about it."
Peirce said, "Sorry. Reflex." and he let go of my arm. He grinned, "Seems like I always run into you when I'm lost in thought, only this time, it was a bit literal." he made a peace sign. It feels like I could just keep talking to him...
I smiled back warmly, "Hee...Yeah, I guess your right." I giggled quietly. Since when did I giggle?
He grinned, "Why are you wandering around?" He knitted my eyebrows together, "Aren't you gonna check out your room?" he asked.
I laughed nervously, "I'm just exploring this place. It's really big." I explained wondering if he would figure out what I was really doing. I like it when he smiles...
He looked at me, "Hm...Are you okay, Abby? Your face is a little red. You don't have a fever, do you?" he asked.
I raised my hands, blushing a little, "N-No! I'm okay...I'm fine, Pierce." I said and I smiled. I wasn't blushing was I? I must be getting sick...
"Well..." he sighed, "If you say so...I'm sorry if you do get sick though. You didn't have to help me in the snow." he apologized.
"It's fine, I'm glad I could actually help someone...I've never really helped anyone before," I said looking down at my hands.
"I'm really sorry if I got you sick," Peirce said, putting the back of his hand to my forehead, then to my cheek. "You do feel a bit warm. Maybe you should lay down," he said pointing to his bed.
"I-I-I-I'm fine," I stuttered out. Does he actually care? No one has really cared about me except Alissa, and she just started picking on me...I got a little teary eyed.
Peirce noticed and said, "Are you alright? Was it something I said?"
"No, it's not what you said...it's something my best friend was saying..." I blushed a little. I hope he doesn't notice that...
"What did your best friend say?" he asked, sounding a little concerned and interested.
"It's n-n-nothing," I stammered, hoping that he wouldn't ask anymore.
"You sure?" he asked, looking into my eyes. I just need to calm down, but how could I when I know Alissa will keep picking on me. How could I calm down with those eyes looking into mine. I'm not use to making eye contact with anyone...
"Y-Y-Yeah," I said, starting to twiddle my index fingers, wondering if my face was still red. He looked like he kinda didn't believe me so I said, "m-m-maybe I should get going..." but did I want to leave? Did he want me to leave? What am I feeling?
