“Unless of course, you think it would be easier for you. I don’t want to make you…uncomfortable or anything. I just…I don’t know Alex.”
Guess she doesn'T love me back. Surprise surprise. Well, I still rather see and talk to her every day knowing it can never be more than friends than never talking to her and avoiding her. As long as she doesn't taunt me with boyfriends.
I carefully move to Max's bed and sit down on it, as far away from Isabel as I can as she seems rather ... awkward around me right now.
"Don't worry about me, I'm fine with ... being friends. I can handle that, it's no problem. I ... just have the feeling that, at least right now, you aren't dealing that well with the situation."

“I’m in shock.” I explain as I push my hair out of my face. “I expected to have a nice date with Kyle not go to a sports bar and have him tell me that you have feelings for me. And I thought that you would be having this wonderful date with Ashley.”
Tap my fingers against my knees. A nervous habit that I’ll never willingly admit to having. Alex stares at me silently as if he is waiting for me to say something else. I don’t know if there is anything else I can say. I’m not sure if there is anything else I can do. This whole thing is turning into a mess. I’ve seen to have lost the nature grace that I normally have when it comes to dramas.
“And I was jealous.” I blurt out before I can stop myself. It only seems fair that I confide this secret to Alex. “Of Ashley. I’ve been thinking some really mean things about her and I didn’t understand why considering I haven’t even met her. But I guess it was jealousy Which makes me feel really confused. So I just don’t know what to say to you right now, Alex.”

“I expected to have a nice date with Kyle not go to a sports bar and have him tell me that you have feelings for me. And I thought that you would be having this wonderful date with Ashley.”
Sports bar? Isabel? Oh my God, I'm so close to laughing. I bet she wouldn't find it funny at all if I do.
“And I was jealous. Of Ashley. I’ve been thinking some really mean things about her and I didn’t understand why considering I haven’t even met her. But I guess it was jealousy Which makes me feel really confused. So I just don’t know what to say to you right now, Alex.”
Whoa! What? Jealous? Why? Does this mean ...? No, it surely doesn't, or does it? Okay, I better not start jumping around like a kid on Christmas morning. That surely wouldn't do me any good since Isabel seems so stressed.
"Okay, I admit that I'm extremly curious about that jealousy bit you were talking about but … there is no need to talk about this tonight or in the next days. I have no problem with continuing this talk when you had time to think about it, Isabel."
Running a hand through my hair, I wonder if she'll want me to leave now. She's not saying anything and I guess that could be a good thing. Maybe I should change the topic and satisfy my curiosity about something else.
"A sports bar, huh? Not an experience you'd recommend then?"

A small smile plays on my lips, “Yeah, its probably not the best place for a date. If I didn’t hate sports before I certainly hate them now. Kyle said that he wanted to give me a original date and boy did he do that.”
The smile quickly fades as the awkwardness fills the room again. I shift nervously on the bed, “I think that Liz is probably wanna go to bed soon. We should talk about this tomorrow.”
Or never.

I'm sorry it took so long. My internet connection has been a little loopy lately. And sorry it's so short, but I've got nothing as to where things are going or where I want them to go at the moment.

After deciding that we should tell Tess about what Izzy knows, Max stands and extends his hand to help me up. “Liz,” he begins as I take his hand, “can I ask you a question?”
Quickly I wonder about what the question could be, but I can’t even begin to figure out what the question could be. “Yeah, I guess,” I reply as I stand, smoothing out my jeans. “It’s nothing bad is it?”

“I think that Liz is probably wanna go to bed soon. We should talk about this tomorrow.”
I get up feeling guiltly for kicking Liz out of her room. I can't help and wonder what Iz meant with jealous. I know the meaning of the word but how did she mean it? In a romantic way? In a sisterly way (is there such a way of jealousy?)? In the best friend way who's jealous that the best friend is spending time with others?
"Okay then ... good night." I say as I walk to the door but then I turn around again. "God, I'm really sorry Isabel, especially since I said we'll talk about this whenever you want to but ... just tell me that ... well, that I don't need to start thinking that ... you might feel the same and get all excited about nothing."

Liz looks so great, smoothing off her jeans like that. I wish I could touch her pants like that. Her legs are amazing. The best part is that it's Liz. There's just something about her that makes me want to be with her all the time. Why is it that girls like that never seem to like me in return?
“Yeah, I guess. It’s nothing bad is it?” Liz says, agreeing to let me ask a question. What was my question? I feel like my brain has stopped.
Oh yeah. We were talking about Tess.
"No. Nothing bad. ... at least, I don't think so," I say, biting my lip. I manage to meet Liz's eyes, hoping this won't sound to rediculous. "I was just wondering if ... I mean, you're a girl so maybe you would know ... Do you think that Tess likes me? We had a really nice time together and all, but I felt like she was thinking about something-else the whole time. Do you think she likes someone-else? Or maybe she's just homesick or something?" I ask.

I run a hand through my hair, silently wishing that Alex had just left the room. I need time to think about everything that has happened. I can’t tell him anything when I’m not even sure of it myself.
“Alex, I don’t know what to tell you.” I sigh. “I’m confused. I need some time to think and clear my head. I‘m sorry. I can‘t give you what you need right now. I wish I could but I can‘t. Not now.”

I nod in understanding. What did I expect anyway? That she says she loves me? Well, she didn't say that she doesn't and ... great, I'm already starting to speculate. I so won't get a good night's sleep tonight.
"No, I'm sorry for pushing you, Isabel. No need for you to be sorry. Well, good night then and I'll tell Liz that she can come in again when I see her."
ooc: are Max and Liz still outside the girls' room or did they already walk to Tess' room?
