17. Secrets Secrets and More Secrets

After coming back from Chipotle I went up to the room and found Geo sound asleep.

"Awwwe fuck, you're so adorable," I whispered.

He rolled over and I ducked. He didn't wake up. I got back up from my ducking position and walked towards the bed. I sat on the bed as gently as possible. I had a lot of text that i needed to respond to so, that what I did. Moments later I felt someone's arm twisting around me. I jumped at that.

"What are you doing babe?" Geo asked me.

"Nothing," I said.

"Who are you texting?" He questioned.

"Nobody," I said.

"I can see your phone. You're texting," He said.

"Well if you can see my phone then you know who I'm texting," I replied.

"Let me just see your phone," He said reaching for if.

"Um...no," I moving my phone from his reach.

"Why?" He asked raising his voice.

"Because I said so. Let me see your phone," I said getting louder than him.

"Fine. I have nothing to hide." He gave me his phone and I threw it on the floor. "What the fuck."

"Oops. Sorry. I have butterfingers," I bitch smiled.

He grabbed my phone out of my hands and threw it. "Oops I have butterfingers too," He bitch smiled right back at me.

"Fuck you," I walked in the bathroom and locked myself in there.

Like 2 minutes later he comes knocking on the door.

"Babe," He said.

I didn't answer at first but then he knocked like 12 more times extra hard.

"If you need to use the bathroom it's 2 more down the hall and another down stairs," I told him.

"That's not what I want," He said.

"Well then I don't care," I said.

"Come on babe," He said.

"Ha. You're right I don't care about you having to use the bathroom either."

"Just open the door."

"Why would I do that?" I asked more like a statement.

"Because...We need to talk." 

"Um...No thanks. You can talk to my possibly broken phone," I told him.

I heard him walk away. Then he came back, "It's not broken."

I open the door and Geo took a step forward. I snatched my phone out his hand and closed the door in his face making sure I locked it.

He took a deep breath. I heard him press against the door, "Well I'll just sit here until you're ready."

"Yeah good luck with that," I said and he didn't respond.

3 minutes later I laid down in the tub. I was chilling on my phone and Brysen texted me.

The text read

Brys: Damn where u go

Court: I haven't told Geo about the short film and he wanted to c my phone

Brys: Awe u guys fighting now?

Court: Idk I'm kinda locked in the bathroom

Brys: ?

End of text

I forgot that Geo was leaning on the door so I opened it and he almost hit his head but I caught it.

"So you finally decided to talk?" Geo asked getting up.

"No I have to go," I said.

"Where?" He asked. I looked at him confused. "Where do you have to go?"

"Nowhere," I said.

"Well great, then we can talk," He stated.

"No. Not nowhere as in I'm not going anywhere. Nowhere as in it's nothing," I said.

"Well I'll drive you and we can talk on the way," He responded.

"I already have a ride," I said walking around Geo.

He grabbed my arm as I walked around him.

"Every since this Francisco dude came around you've been acting secretive and hiding things. Just tell me what's going on." Geo said still holding onto my arm.

I pushed Geo off of my arm "He could say the same about you, every since this Geo dude came around you haven't called or texted me. Look Geo it's a secret. You'll find out soon enough. Just be patient."

"But that's different. I'm your boyfriend."

"And that's my best friend," I replied.

He looked at me for a second, "Courtney if you had to choose between me and him, who would you choose?" 

"I'm not answering that dumbass question," I said.

"Why not?" He asked.

"Because it's a dumbass question, that's why." 

I just walked out of the room and let Brysen know I was ready. I also told him that I might spend the night because Geo is getting on my damn nervous. A couple of minutes later Brysen was here. When I walked outside I remember that it's always cold at Francisco's house so I went back inside and took Geo's sweatshirt. I would have asked but the argument we just had I didn't even want to talk to him. When I came back Geo was outside talking to Brysen. Brysen notice my sweatshirt and said.

"Cool sweatshirt." 

Me and Geo both responded with "Thanks." but Geo rolled his eyes at me afterwards.

Geo and Brysen wrapped up their conversation and we left.

"What was that all about?" I asked.

"I could asked the same about you two. He asked me to keep an eye on Francisco. See how he acts around you," Brysen's told me.

"Ugh I can not believe him," I said.

"Well you should be happy. A lot of people don't have people in their lives that care so much," Brys told me.

"I know it's just annoying some times. It's like he's always hovering over me. And it's just going to get worse from here. Going to see Connor and the short film and everything," I said.

"He seems pretty cool about the short film. I mean he hasn't said anything to me about it."

"Welllll..." I said.

"You didn't tell him about the short film?" Bry asked.

"I got nervous," I said.

"You didn't tell him about Pennsylvania, either did you?" 

"Nope. I got scared," I said.

"Well what else did you not tell him?" Brysen's asked .

"Nothing what was I supposed to tell him that I didn't?" I asked.

"Nothing. I think that pretty much covers it."

"Well I'll tell him later. He already has a suspension about you and you getting the leading role that plays MY BOYFRIEND is not helping your case," I said.

"Wait he thinks..." Brysen's tried to control his laugh. "He thinks I like you?" 

"Ha ha ha very funny. Yes he does," I said.

"That's a good one," Brysen's said whipping fake tears out of his eye.

"Oh shut up," I said.

Chapter 17 yeah that's all I have to say.
