GICCA'S POINT OF VIEW
"Just don't forget to take this, eat this, and take much of rest." worried Lance said as he arranged the things on the top of my table.
He paid a visit, it's still early in the morning and I just woke up. He said he just want to make sure that I am fine and I will be fine. See? He is so sweet. I didn't know he can be this sweet. I think my feelings for him will grow.
"T-Thank you, Lance." I said and felt a little hotness on my cheeks.
I don't think it is normal for Lance to act this way knowing that my condition isn't critical at all. He is drowning me with his care for me, and I feel a little distracted about it because aside from he never treated me this way before, he is also over reacting with things that has something to do with me. Like my current situation, and Eliote being near me.
He is showing so much care for me. He doesn't want me to mingle with Eliote because according to him, Eliote is a stalker and will surely harm me. Like, duhhh. I never felt it to Eliote. I don't know where did Lance gathered that fake information. Maybe he's jealous?
I am happy to know that I am important to him, but he does not put in place his concern for me. He is being way too much. I feel bad for Eliote.
Lance nodded, "Take care of yourself, Gicca." he said.
I smiled, "I will... always."
He sat on my bed and handed me his knitted forehead, "I don't like Eliote." here he is again with his hatred towards Eliote.
I rolled my eyes on him and threw a giggle, "Why are you being like that to him? He is actually nice." I said.
He raised his brow on me, "I told you, he stalks you. I really don't trust him from the beginning." he said as he moved his jaw to grit his teeth..
"Chill, Lance. Never did I noticed someone has ever stalked me. Where did you picked up that information?"
"He, himself told me about it. He said he never been away from you ever since. How did that happen if you don't know him? That guy is dangerous, Gicca." he seriously said.
My tongue backed up a little after hearing his words. Eliote told him that? Why would Eliote say something like that? Is it some sort of a joke to annoy Lance? Probably. We know that they did not get along well with each other. He may have just said this to Lance because maybe he knew how Lance protects me and Lance would definitely get annoyed if it will be his sword against him.
"Did you hear what he said yesterday? He said he came here to protect you. Isn't that strange to you? Why would he show so much concern to you if you if you just met a few days ago?" he asked in a stressed tone and gritted his teeth in annoyance.
I was silent for a moment and frowned as I tried to remember and memorize everything. Suddenly my hair stood on when I remembered the word that came out of Eliote's mouth yesterday. He actually said that he came to protect me, what Lance was saying was true! I just didn't pay much attention to it because I was more concerned about their fiery dispute yesterday.
I looked at him with the same look on my face, still frowning, "Maybe he's just kidding you to make you upset and annoyed. You know you're not okay. Isn't it? So it's not impossible for him to say those without a reason." I said.
He clicked his tongue and messed up his hair because of the uncontrollable annoyance he was carrying. I can clearly feel his annoyance. "Why are you taking sides with him? Just believe in me, Gicca. I am your friend. I am the one you can trust here. I am the one you met earlier than him." he said which again caused the warmth of my cheek.
I bowed my head for a moment so that he could not see me biting my lip because of the thrill I felt because of what he said. Why is he like that? Why does he seem to show that he cares about me? Why does he make me feel that he loves me? Ugh. I might not be able to stop myself from falling hard on him.
I know I let go of the opportunity when he held my hand. I've wasted it! Will I release the opportunity again? Now that he is showing concern to me? What if this will be the way for him to like me back? Ugh. But I can't stay away from Eliote. I could find no one else to help me solve my hallucination problem. My friends are smart. They can experiment, but the medicine I am looking for is, I think, only Eliote can really help me with it. I only once marvel at the ability of others and to him, I was astonished. If only my brain could make my own medicine, then I will. But I can't.
Just wait Lance. When I get the medicine I need, I will stay away from Eliote and take advantage of your kindness to me.
I shuddered as I thought of these things and spontaneously slapped myself softly. What a nonsense thing running through my mind right now. I secretly rolled my eyes.
Yes, I have a crush on Lance. I want us to be in a relationship but I also don't want to. I do not know to myself. I'm so confused. I don't even understand myself.
"T-Thank you for worrying about me but I think Eliote is kind. It does not mean that I do not believe in you, I just have a strong feeling that Eliote is a good person. And another, I badly needed his help." I said. I have to cover Eliote now, I have to make a way so that they won't get him away from me. I will hold on to this until I get the medicine that is for me. I do not want to lose my sanity!
"You're really stubborn, Gicca." he clicked his tongue and immediately crawled towards me and gave me a quick kiss on my forehead, "Even so, I will still protect you. I don't want anyone to harm my friends. Get well soon, Gicca." he added and let out a smile.
I CAN NO LONGER CONTROL THE HEAT OF MY CHEEK! THIS IS A GREAT BLUSHING!
