All Chapters of An Odyssey: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

I was walking to my class with Duke. “I am your best friend, aren’t I?” “Nope” he pooped the ‘p’“Now you are being rude” I stopped him, holding his shoulder.“I am not telling you who she is” he said slowly.

He kissed me? Why would he do that? If this was one of charms, I have to admit, they worked. I was taken aback for a few seconds before responding to him. My response was for two reasons. First, Ed was there and I had to make him resent Paul. Second, I wanted to kiss Paul back. The kiss was soft on the lips and it was promising. When he pulled back for a brief regretful moment I wanted him back, lips locked with mine but when my eyes met Ed’s dark, fiery ones, I forgot about Paul immediately. Blood made its way to my cheeks and I went hot and red. Now you see the impact he has on me.  

Anna’s POV:I was lying on the bed, arms and legs spread, looking above at the ceiling as if it was the most interesting thing in the world. My mind was racing with thoughts. If the sun was the moon how weird would that be? If you think about it, it wouldn’t have been weird at all because we would have grown used to it and I would be thinking vice versa. How interesting my life would have been if I were a bird; flying all the time to countries and across continents. That would be pretty awesome, that is of course I wasn’t eaten by another animal. And how boring my life would have been if I were a chair; I’d have to sup

Getting out of the car, I observed the people around me. I could smell something different in the atmosphere. What was it? There was something off about everybody today. Even my own group was acting peculiar. Holding hands more than usual, locking lips more than usual, getting touchy more than usual! Hugging my books closely against my chest, I walked towards my class, looking here and there. The couples were handing each other wrapped presents and there were cards and stuffed animals and roses and chocolates. What the-?I spotted Ed and a smile

“So, what’s going on lately?” he started.“Mm, nothing interesting, I’m just spending most of my time with Paul now,”He blinked and took a sip of his latte. We were at the café, sitting against the window, talking like the old times. However, there was something unusual in the air between us. The familiarity of knowing a person was missing, it was like he was a stranger who I’ve met and known partially.
