Saffran
avoided Norman for one week. Norman doesn't know why. That day he left Norman's
house without even telling anything. He is feeling anxious thinking if Saffran doesn't
like him anymore. That he may be uninterested in his body and wanna go back to
his previous life style. Even when Norman tried to talk with him, he avoided
him carefully.
One thing
Norman noticed that Saffran is talking with Jess again. Some rumours are saying
that Saffran and Jess are now friends. Norman doesn't believe this bullshit. Saffran
doesn't answers his calls or replies his messages. He sighs for the 100th
time of the day.
"Stop
sulking so obviously." Raven mutters beside him munching chocolates. They are
sitting in the cafeteria. Sara again skipped school. Norman eyes the elegant chocolate
box on the table. "Where did you get it from?" He asks dismissing his previous
comment. "Alex gave me this." Norman raises a brow indicating him to elaborate.
Alex too ignored them after that day. Raven was so angry that he swore that if
Alex tries to talk or even make a sound in front of him again, he'll cut his
tongue. But right now Raven is eating the chocolates happily which 'Alex' gave
him.
"He
apologized. And as an apology he gave me this. I don't know how he knows that
it's my favourite." Raven doesn't seem to care. As long as someone can satisfy
him with chocolates. Norman curiously looks at the popular table and sees Alex
was already staring at them. He was.....smiling at Raven. Norma furrows his brows in confusion. To see what
he's guessing is correct, he asks Raven to peck him lightly on his cheek. Raven
looks at him confused. But as he is too busy to ask him further question he
obliges. He gives him a peck on his cheek. Norman quickly looks at Alex and
sees his face becomes hard. Norman gulps. He can sense what the other parties
are feeling.
Norman can't
handle this silent treatment from Saffran anymore. Saffran leaves early from
school so that Norman can't catch him. So he plans on going to his house.
Norman was
quite confident but when he reaches his house all of that vanishes. He keeps on
standing on the porch no even pressing the calling bell. After solid 10 minutes
of not getting any miracle, he presses the calling bell with shaky hands. After
a moment Saffran opens the door clearly surprised. "What do you want?" He says
in a cold tone, seemingly pissed at Norman's sudden arrival. "At least let me
enter." Unwillingly Saffran opens the door more for him to enter. Norman
doesn't sit. He have no patience so he blurts out. "Why are you ignoring me?"
Saffran was ready to be questioned. And his answers were ready too. "I'm over
our little fling." To think it didn't hurt Norman real bad would be a lie.
"Tell me the reason." "No reason. I was just bored. Nothing else." Norman releases
a shaky breath. "Okay that doesn't mean you won't even talk with me. I knew it.
You were spouting bullshits all along about being my best friend and I again believed
your shit!" Norman shouts. Saffran doesn't reply. He keeps standing crossing
his hands.
"You like me
don't you?" Norman gets frozen in place. What does he mean? How did he know? "What
bullshit are you spilling now?" He carefully asks afraid of getting caught. Saffran
looks at him sceptically. "You like me or no?" He again asks. Not wanting to
end their relationship so easily he lies. "No. What makes you think that? Just
cause you fucked me? Heh. I admit you're handsome. But to fall for you after
some fucking, you really are out of your mind." Norman sneers. Saffran looks at
him astonished. "You don't really-" "No means no! How many times should I tell
you?! Get those garbage out of your head!" Saffran keeps staring at him with
wide eyes. "So that's why you were ignoring me. You really take things to
another level." Norma cant stand
anymore. It hurts so much. And here he was thinking Saffran finally was falling
for him. He was going crazy worrying he did something wrong.
Was Saffran
this much despised Norman liking him? He never even uttered those words. How
did Saffran know. "What made you assume it?" Norman asks keeping himself calm. "Forget
it." "What do you mean forget it?! You ignored me for one whole week and now you're
acting all carefree!" "Stop shouting. And yeah I assumed shit and I'm sorry.
Can't you just let it go?" Norman looks at him with emotionless face. He doesn't
say anything for sometime. "Let's go somewhere." Saffran says grabbing both his
hands. The careless Saffran is long gone. His eyes shows sincerity. He's acting
like the drama before never happened.
"First tell
me from where you heard it." Norman is adamant. He wont just sit and let people
have secrets bout him. Saffran sighs. "I heard some girls talking how you look
at me like you're so in love and shit." Its so easy for Saffran to lie. They
are both good liars.
Norman
hesitantly believes him. He nods his head. Without even asking for his permission
Saffran kisses him. It's been a week without the pretty boy's touch. He kisses
back fervently. The heat spreads through his body. Saffran rubs his tongue,
marks all of his oral cavity. When Saffran withdraws from the kiss he sees a blushing
mess of Norman.
"I'm taking you
to somewhere."
