Reserved ~ Chris Schistad (SLOWLY UPDATING)

Chapter 10 (episode 10)

Tuesday 4:00 p.m

Eva's POV:

Noora walked through the big auburn door, using the key I gave her. You got to have a best friend who has a key to your house right?

"Eva!" Her voice bounced off the walls.

"In here!" I answered, resuming cleaning the dishes.

In the corner of my eye, I saw her enter through the walkway with an exasperated look.

"What the hell are you doing? You are supposed to be wallowing, you know, binge watching sad love stories and eating snacks!" She grabbed the dish away from me.

"I have the right to clean the dishes that I use to eat with Noora," I answered whilst ripping the dish out of her hands.

"Not when you and Chris broke, um, well, whatever you two had." She threw her hands in the air dramatically.

I sighed," I don't need to wallow something that was never going to happen in the first place." I set the dishes in the dishwasher to be cleaned and turned to face Noora,"I am not going to wallow." A stern huff escaped my lips.

"Fine, at least explain why you told him you couldn't do this in the first place." She furrowed her eyebrows, waiting for a response, but the doorbell rang and interrupted our conversation.

I immediately looked at Noora,"Who did you call?"

"Let's just say, I brought back-up," She smiled softly.

I opened the door and Sana, Vilde, and Chris (girl) all hopped in with ice cream and movies. I shook my head and laughed," I guess come on in."

When we were all on the couch, Noora looked at them,"Wait guys, Eva was about to explain to me the reason why she told Chris that she couldn't be with him."

They all turned to me eagerly, wanting to hear the explanation. I shifted uncomfortably on the couch.

"He has cheated on people guys, even when me and him were leaning towards being a couple, I would hear rumors of who he kissed that night." I shrugged.

"That's not the only reason, is it?" Sana knew me all too well.

I sighed and looked down, not wanting to explain the most important reason why I told him that we could not be together.

"I was falling for him so quickly that I was terrified of what would happen. How hurt I would get, if he ever cheated on me. My heart was being given to him, and I didn't even know it." I paused,"This may be one of the world's stupidest reasons of why to end everything that could of been, but every guy I may end up falling for, I push away because I'm scared, terrified of the outcome. You know, if my body is good enough, if I'm good enough?" I closed my eyes, trying to keep the heightened emotions at bay.

My friends all held the same sorrowfulness in their eyes. I shook my head and smiled," But that doesn't matter now that's in the past, so who wants to watch a movie." I waved the many movies in their faces.

Sana looked at the rest of the girls with an encouraging smile,"I guess let's watch a movie," Her smile looked a bit unsure as she said this.

"I am okay, I promise!" I flashed a bright smile.

They all nodded and resumed to set up the movie.

Tuesday 5:17 p.m

Chris's POV:

I scrolled through my contacts, eventually clicking William's name and calling him.

"Party at your place." I spoke, not really asking.

"Why not?" He replied,"I'll send word."

I hung up the phone, snatching my keys from the table and headed to William's.

Tuesday 6:32

Eva's POV:

In the corner of my eye, I noticed the girls exchange a look.

"What is it?" I included myself in the discussion.

"Not entirely sure you want to know," Chris (girl) scrunched her nose, looking between me and the others.

"Well now I'm intrigued." I tilted my head and smirked.

"Chris is having a party at William's," Vilde explained,"We just received word of the information."

I watched as Noora gave Vilde a sharp glare.

"It's okay, Noora. I'm not phased by this," I looked at everyone in the eye, not changing my expression.

An idea came to mind,"We should go," I smiled and raised my eyebrows.

"Are you insane?" Sana gave me a sassy hand on the hip.

"Well if this is what insane is, then I guess that's what I am," I turned my head sharply and walked to my room to find an outfit, "Come on girls, if we want to make it to the party, we need to get dressed, unless we go naked," I giggled and protruded my head from the doorway, trying to get them to join.

"This is going to be interesting," Sana scoffed.

The girls nodded and walked through the long, narrow corridor, which lead to my room.
