Chapter 21: New Feelings

He then blinks and tries to push her away but she won't let him. I guess she got some muscles, especially since her mom is a dancer, she probably danced too.

I don't know why, but I don't want to look.

It's probably because:

1. I've never been kissed so I'm pretty jealous.

2. I guess it's disgusting watching two people swap spit.

3. It's not because I like Logan whatsoever.

I look away and then without thinking I turn around.

And I run.

I'm running.

I don't know where, hell I don't even know WHY.

I guess running was the best option after what I just witnessed.

I turn the corner and pass Jake and Zach. They look up at me with questioning looks, probably wondering why I'm running.

The thing is I don't know why either. I run around the family room to the hallway.

I look behind me for a second and Without thinking or looking I run straight into the wall.

"Ouch," I say rubbing my forehead.

"Smooth move," I hear Sam say from behind me. I look up at him and glare.

"What were you even running from?" He asks, amused a bit. I don't know Sam, I don't know.

"Umm...a bear." I blurted out without thinking. He raises an eyebrow.

"A....bear?" He asks amused. "And where, Alex, would there be a bear?"

"Um...on the balcony." I say. He than full out laughs at me.

"Y-you found a...a bear on the- the balcony?" He asks while laughing. He holds his gut and wipes away a tear. "That's...That's golden," he says. Wow thanks Sam.

"What is happening here?" Brianna asks, looking at Sam who's now rolling on the floor laughing.

"Alex..bear....balcony..." He says in fits of laughter. Brianna smiles.

"Alex?"

"I have no idea what he's talking about," I say. Sam then wipes his tear still chuckling.

"I'll just...go" he said coming over to Brianna and giving her a kiss on the cheek before he walks away.

"So... What were you running from?" Brianna asks, raising an eyebrow.

"How do you know I was runnin-"

"You almost knocked over the lamp in the process" she explains. Oh, I don't remember that.

"Oh."

"So what was it?" She asks walking into my room and sitting on my bed.

"Did I give you permission to come in my room?"

"Well I live in this house too, so I'm allowing myself." She said. "Stop changing the topic." She scolded, while I walked in shutting the door.

"I...Umm" I started. She nodded for me to continue.

"I don't know actually," I say honestly. She frowns.

"You sure? No one did anything?" She raised an eyebrow. "No one said anything, you didn't see anything?" She asked not believing me. I shake my head. She sighs.

"Alex what happened? You were running, trying to avoid something. I don't know. You had a sad look on your face and you seemed...confused," she explained and I shrugged.

"I don't know why I would be sad or confused," I said. She groaned irritated I'm not telling the full truth.

"Alex what happened?" It's silent for a few minutes.

"I...I saw Rebecca," I started and she looked confused. "Linda's daughter," I explained and she nodded understanding.

"So I saw Rebecca, and she umm," I trailed off. Brianna sat there waiting for me to continue.

"She what?" Brianna asks interested.

"She kissed Logan." I explained. I felt a pang in my chest. What the heck was that?

I don't understand why I didn't like that happening.

That's when Brianna started laughing.

I sat there confused as to why she's laughing. This isn't a laughing moment!

"Y-your so jealous!" She said laughing. I gasp.

"I- I am not jealous!" I exclaimed.

She stopped laughing for a moment and stared at me in disbelief.

"Dude...She kissed Logan and you ran away. You obviously were jealous." She explained. I am not.

I shake my head.

"Nuh uh," I denied.

"Yeah huh. You're jealous because you like him!" She said with a smile.

"No I don't," I frown. I can't like Logan. It's not possible.

"Yeah huh. YOU LIKE LOGAN. ALEX AND LOGAN SITTING IN A TREE K-I-S-S-I-"

"Shut up! No I don't!" I said getting annoyed. She then paused.

"Alex." She started. "Do you enjoy Logan's company?"

"Why would you ask-"

"Just answer it," she interrupted.

"Well yeah I like his company-"

"Do you ever feel things in your stomach when you're around him?" She asks. I don't know, do I?

"Not really, I just feel sick and wanna throw up-"

"That's not being sick Alex." She said. "Wait okay maybe it is. You're lovesick" she said winking.

"Wha-"

"Those are called butterflies Alex. Do you know what they are?" She says treating me like I'm a toddler.

"Well yeah everyone knows what butterflies are-"

"I mean the kind in your stomach! You get then when you're around him because you LIKE him!" She explained face palming.

"I do not like hi-"

"Alex you are happy around him, and you enjoy his company. And you think he's hot-"

"I never said that last one-"

"But you were thinking it! Face it Alex, you like him!" She said.

"Just because I enjoy his company and think he's sorta good looking- WHICH EVERYONE THINKS- doesn't mean I like him," I explained. She looked at me blankly.

"You get butterflies-"

"Or maybe I feel sick looking at him." I said. She looks at me in disbelief.

"You really won't face the truth won't you-"

"What truth?" I ask. " I don't like him!"

She then closes her eyes and pulls out her phone.

She types 'Sam! Do you think Alex likes Logan?'

My eyes widen.

"NO DON'T SEND THAT," I yell. She sends it. That. Little. Boowah.

"One sec he replied."

'Yeah, it's obvious.' He replies.

"HOW THE HELL IS IT OBVIOUS? It's not even there!" I exclaim. She looks at me.

"Not even a little bit?" She ask. She's quiet for a moment.

"Now that I think about it, Rebecca and Logan would make a brilliant couple-"

"Like hell they will! They'd be an awful couple! She's so clingy and she threw herself at him! She doesn't understand him like I...I..." Oh shit.

"Like what?" Brianna asks excited and smirking.

"Like...I do," I finally say. She grins.

"YES I'VE GOTTEN IT OUT OF HER! BRIANNA SCHAP LADIES AND GENTLEMAN. IS A GENIUS!" She said applauding herself. I shake my head.

"No no no, I can't...we can't...this isn't right. How did this even happen?" I ask confused. She then jumps up and down on my bed, cheering.

"Finally-"

"No this isn't good Brianna. I...this can't be right," I say.

I like Logan fucking Lerman.

{short ew. But OHMYGERRRRD, IT HAS BEEN SAID. She admitted it;) }
