Curtains Close; Take a bow. I think we fooled all of them now.
Chapter 43 - Oh, If You Need Me, I'll Be Tying A Rope To The Tree Where Our Love Used To Be
Rain's POV
I felt so rejected. So unloved. All I wanted was to slowly ease him back into loving me again. But he wouldn't even hug me, after everything that I did for him. He now stood there in vain, eyeing me up about the events.
"Are you alright?" He jerked towards me, but I quickly left off in the other direction.
"Fine." I said sadly. The amount of times I had said the word 'fine' and felt as though I was dying, I could barely count them any more.
"Oh." He shrugged, leaving me to run my distance away from him. "It's just, you seem all down lately. Is it something I said?"
Of course it fucking was you blind son of a bitch. I wanted to scream at him, let him know how ignorant he was being. But I simply said nothing. I just shook my head. Despite my heart throbbing and my eyes swelling, I couldn't bring myself to say anything.
"Oh right." He said with a smile. "Is it your time of the month or something?"
"No... Oli." I wanted to take him down with my bare fists. He was such an idiot, but I loved him so much.
My hands went numb from clenching them. He continued to stare at me. "No, something is definitely up with you Rain. Your acting all mopey and shit. And you don't usually pour yourself that big of a glass of liquor." He laughed slightly, but stopped almost immediately as I didn't find it very humorous.
"I just wanted to ask you..." I paused. What did I want to ask him? Oh Jesus there was no way I could even step foot there now, after him rejecting my hug. I paused, and starred at him with fear.
"You wanted to ask me?" He said, trying to push me on to finishing my sentence.
"I wanted to ask you whether you... Had any aspirin?" Oh shit, you are never going to ask him. Aspirin of all things? Are you insane. Of course he has it, you were giving it to him just yesterday. It's in the bathroom cabinet, top shelf. Why would I ask for something so ridiculous.
"Yeah..." He said with an off putting expression. "It should still be where it was yesterday..."
Shit. Now what!? "Yeah... Obviously!" I said, nervously. "But... We ran out."
"Did we?" He asked, looking surprised. "What do you need it for anyway?"
"Headache!" I shouted, beginning to ascend the stairs. "I'm going to go check again, and maybe take a nap too."
I quickly burst through the door of the bedroom and threw myself onto the bed. Could I have acted any awkwarder? It was obvious something was up now, and he would surely squeeze it out of me. I just wanted him to hold me like before.
