And I won't bring it up because I want her to talk to me about it, but she won't. So we just avoid the subject.... and I shouldn't be telling you this, this probably isn't something you want to hear."
So she played with the sleeve of her robe that was close to her body because she had her legs pulled in tight to her chest. Then she looked up at Christopher and said, "I'm sorry... for fighting with you a while back. I know that we have just kind of moved on from it and pretended it never happened, our fight, but I shouldn't have walked out and then pretended I didn't. I was wrong."
Biting his lower lip, Christopher shook his head.
"No, no. I'm glad I know, really. It helps with my guilt, I guess, knowing that she wasn't too upset by it." It was strange to him, that the hate potion could do that. Bring out all of these emotions that weren't there, but bring out words that were so true.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm still incredibly ashamed of everything I said that day. I guess I just feel better that I didn't really hurt her that badly." Badly enough to talk about it to her best friend anyway. But it did really hurt him at the same time. That she didn't care about what had happen. She completely brushed it off. But no matter what he'd said during the hate potion argument, he'd loved her. At least he thought he had. Now he wasn't so sure.
"Thanks, Sel. I really appreciate it." It did make him feel better that she was owning up to their fight. It let him know that, even though it was just a small little apology, that they weren't going to let this break up change anything. Now it was his turn.
"I'm really sorry too. It was wrong of me to expect you to take sides like that, especially when I know you're going through some stuff too, even if you aren't ready to talk about it. I was just so upset by that word, I wasn't thinking right. It was selfish of me, and I'm sorry about that."
He knew that a lot of people would disagree with him on this one, but apologizing felt so
nice. It was a shame he wasn't ready to face Violet yet, whether they wanted to mend the relationship or not.
