Slacker- Part 2

Katie now stood quietly in Elliot's room as he stood in front of her with a deep thought and a frown on his face. He had said he had gift for her too just like Sylvia but he hadn't spoken to her since they entered the room.

Wondering what it was she asked him,

"Um Elliot?"

"I want you to forget your feelings for Alexander," he said with no hint of playfulness in his eyes. Elliot who was always cheerful now looked serious.

Katie didn't know how to react to his request. She was confused.

"But why?" she asked softly.

"Don't take me wrong but I don't think you two are suited for each other," were the words that came out of his mouth and she lowered her eyes down to the floor.

Katie hadn't expected Elliot to show her the reality so bluntly.

She knew they belonged to two different worlds. It was something that was there at the back of her mind which she had pushed away. She wanted to be with him.

She then felt a hand on her head.
