873 Words
We arrive at the diner and i feel slightly nervous. I mean I know that this is not a date but i feel like it is. As we enter the diner together a beautiful women with a curvy body and brown hair with blonde highlights comes out and head straight for us. When she says, " Hey follow me." She sounded a little bored until she actually looks at us or more specifically Henry.
"Oh hey I did not realize you were coming in today." She says more excitedly. They continue talking completely ignoring my existence. I felt a little offended but it seems like they knew each other well if what she said is any indication. " So are you having the usual then?" The beautiful lady asks.
"Uh. Yeah I guess so what about you Addison?" Henry says as he looks back at me.
" I look at him and give s small smile and say," I actually need a minute to decide sorry."
I look at Wendy expecting her to give an attitude about that. Instead she smiles and says sweetly," No problem i will be back to give you a minute to decide."
I look at my menu trying to decide between a filet and salmon and kept feeling utter relief at having Wendy leave the table. I could not understand why considering i was not even dating Henry or anything. As I looked at him I noticed he was looking at me with a weird expression on his face. I looked around before looking at him and asked in concern"Are you okay? Is there something wrong?"
He shakes his head and puts on an indifferent expression. " I just get the impression that you are upset about something." Henry says. I look at him in surprise. I did not think i spoke in an unkind tone to her.
' I am not really upset. I mean i was a little when you guys just ignored my existence but that happens does it not." i explain in a tone one would use to talk about the weather.
He looks as he is about to argue when Wendy the waitress comes back to our table. I inform her that i will be ordering the salmon. " Please excuse me." I say as i leave to go to the restroom needing to get away from them. For some reason all I felt when i saw her return was jealous. I could not understand why. Before I walk through the doors to the restroom I noticed she never went to put my order in as she just stands their talking to Henry I think i finally realize the girl he wants.I smile sadly as i walk into the bathroom realizing that I actually really did like him and thought i had a chance.
Henry's Pov
I watch Addison get up and head to the restroom. I sigh "I do no think she likes me very much."
Wendy looks at me strangely." I think she feels something for you and just does not know what to do with her feelings. Plus " she says a little awkwardly" I think we are giving her the wrong impression about each other."
I look at her confused as to what she was talking about. As she was going to explain Addison came and sat back down at the table. "I will explain another time." Wendy says with a a look of relief on her face. As she walks away I look at Addison and felt i should explain my relationship with Wendy before she misunderstood it." You know we are just friends right. Wendy and I." I say in a reassuring voice.
Addison suddenly turns her head to me so fast i felt as if her head was going to come off. She stared at me with wide eyes.I looked at her with worry in my eyes. As she looked at me searching for something in my face before she put a blank expression on and started nodding her head slowly. " I figured that after a while. Although you do not need to explain your relationship to me."
I stared at her in shock before realizing she was right i did not need to tell her it was not exactly her business nor were we dating. I just nodded my head " Okay Okay i just did not want you to feel uncomfortable."
Addison's Pov
I looked at Henry and started to wonder if I was that obvious with my feelings that he was talking like that. " What made you tell me that?" I asked a little nervously.
" Nothing I just did not want to give you the wrong impression." Henry says smoothly as if he he could not be bothered by what happened. I feel as if he is lying to me about the reason, but i have no one to prove that so i just push it to the side." Alright then let us work on Red Riding Hood." I say as an afterthought
He grimaces at the mention of the story we are doing but agrees nonetheless. I try to suppress my smile as we continue on our English project.
