Blyke's Room
John PoV
"Who are you and what have you done with the real John?", Blyke inquired.
" Excuse me, what the fu*k.", I raised an eyebrow.
"Then what have you been smoking?", he scratched his chin curiously," Cuz I could use some of that."
My jaw dropped. What?!
"Blyke. I am sober.", I slowed my speech, emphasising the 'sober' part.
Rubbing the tips of his fingers on his temples, he stumbled back. "Wait. I need to sit down." Blyke said while dropping onto the messed-up bed behind him, "So you're telling me that you are honestly sorry about what you did."
"Yes." I nodded with slight enthusiasm.
"And you're completely conscious, you haven't suffered any further... head injuries?", he knitted his brows as he placed his fingers together in a 'thoughtful' manner.
" No, I'm fine.", I said blankly in response.
"Interesting. Are you sure-"
"Blyke!", I barked, composing myself soon after,"I understand that it's hard to believe, but I'm genuinely sorry. I just want you to know I feel really bad about what I did." I looked down to the floor, falling silent.
I felt Blyke's hand on my shoulder, I glanced up at him while he said, "Alright, John, I believe you.", he gave me a small smile.
I sat up and returned the kind gesture, feeling grateful for my roommate's understanding. He retreated towards them door and asked, " So, is that everything you wanted to talk about? ", as he reached for the handle.
" Wait, there's still something else. "
The boy sighed and turned to face me again, "Well, shoot.", he gestured for me to go on.
" I wanted to ask you about... well...girls.", I mumbled nervously.
Blyke's expression relaxed and a withheld smile crept onto his face.
"What are you smiling about?!", I questioned, uncomfortable.
He shrugged and said," I'm just surprised Romeo is having trouble with his Juliette."
"Shut up." I threatened. But noticing the slight tension in Blyke after my response, I shifted to a calmer composure. "You see, I really screwed up. Like seriously, fu*ked up big time."
Blyke raised his eyebrows curiously as I continued, "I just found out, Sera has been bottling up all of her frustration about me. Honestly I had no idea she had any! I've been so ignorant and I don't know how to fix it.", I looked up at him expectantly.
" Hold on, you like-like her, right?", he asked and I nodded hesitantly. He continued, "Well, Seraphina seemed most hurt by your lies so maybe you could try being honest about how you see her-"
"NOPE...bad idea! I already tried that, it literally backfired.", I shook off the memories of Sera's glares and menacing...almost kiss.
" Karma is a bit*h."
Sure is.
"Huh?!", Blyke's jaw dropped, " What do you mean you tried that?! You told her already! ", he asked excitedly.
" Well, I told her and asked her out but...", I signed lowly, "S-she took it really badly. Now, I don't know how to tackle the problem. Cuz the way I see it, I can either leave her alone and give her space or keep bothering her with apologies.", I put my hands out in front of me and teetered them like a balance, " Neither seems like a particularly good solution. "
Blyke stroked his chin as he thought. He thought for a while. Then finally said, "True both ideas have a good few drawbacks... did she mention and issues in particular while she vented?"
"Hmmm, well she seemed fixated on how I didn't keep my word about changing." , I scratched my neck glumly, " Which is understandable. "
With a clap of his hands, Blyke exclaimed, " Why didn't you say so?! The solution is simple! " he continued, " Just change." The redhead had a look on his face that could suggest he had just discovered gravity.
"Oh wOw. ThAnKs FoR eNlIgHtEnInG Me.", I rolled my eyes.
"Hey I'm serious. Just do something that would make your change so obvious she wouldn't be able to deny it!"
"But what would that be?", I asked
" um... I don't know dude, maybe it'll come to you in a dream or something.", he opened the door, signalling for me to leave.
Getting up from the chair, I thanked Blyke for his help and left. Once I stepped through the frame I said, "Good-", the door slammed, "-night."
"Ass.", I breathed while walking across the narrow hallway and into my room. Although, I really did appreciate Blyke's help.
I'll think of something. I'm not giving up yet, Sera.
