21. Langlock

Dedicated to Mordred and his brilliant Ethan Holmes Mordaunt

Simon flopped onto his bed after a long confusing day with two girls on his mind: Agatha and CB. CB was bubbly and sweet where Agatha was kind, judgmental, and challenging. Both girls were his friends; however, as the days went on, he felt himself becoming more confused about them and his feelings toward them.

"Rough day?" asked Ethan as he took a seat on the sofa next to both of their beds.

Simon raised his head and then lowered it back onto his pillow. "Mhfjksdlhfs sjhf," he said into his pillow. Realizing that Ethan probably couldn't understand him, he raised his head. "Girls are crazy."

Ethan chuckled and nodded in agreement. "They are rather crazy," He paused. "Does Simon likey a girl?" Rolling his eyes, Simon tossed a pillow over at Ethan. "Hey, its an honest question."

Simon sat up on his bed. "No, I don't. Okay, maybe I do. Girls are confusing." He went onto explain why next. "I feel as if whenever I speak to a girl, its like someone's cast the Langlock jinx on me."

"I feel ya, mate," said Ethan, patting Simon sympathetically on the back.
