Gallus wants to know Silverstreams crush

It was currently lunch break at Twilights Friendship school. Gallus was in the library studying. He felt embarrassed about studying and had decided to hide under a blanket so he could study without being seen.

While he was under the blanket, he heard his familiar friend voices of Silverstream, Sandbar, Yona, Ocellus and Smolder come over to near where he was. They didn’t know he was hiding under the blanket. Gallus was planning to come out and say hi, but then he stopped when he heard Smolder.

“Hey, who do you have a crush on Silverstream? The school prom is coming up in a few weeks, maybe you should ask some creature,” said Smolder to Silverstream. This caught Gallus’s attention. Silver stream was going to say who her crush was. Ever since he first met Silverstream when he first came to the school of Friendship, he had totally had a crush on her. He didn’t think it was him who she liked, but still he kind of wanted to know who it was just out of curiosity (and mild jealousy).

“That’s umm…not really your business,” she said sheepishly.

“Pleease Silverstream,” giving her the guilt trip begging look.

Even though Silverstream was usually full of energy and had perfect confidence, she actually seemed surprisingly shy now. She didn’t really want to, but she knew she could trust her friends.

“Uh, yeah sure, I’ll tell you,” she said.

“Cool, who is it?” Asked Sandbar.

“Gallus,” she carefully whispered to her friends.

Gallus, who was still hiding under the blankets, had heard her say she had a crush on someone but he didn’t hear her say it was him who she liked. Then he came out and said, “Who is it Silverstream?” His friends were shocked as they had not been expecting him to pop out from under a blanket like. They all looked like they had seen a ghost.

“Umm, how much of that did you hear?” Asked Ocellus awkwardly.

“I heard her say she has a crush on someone, but I didn’t hear her say who it was. She whispered it too quietly. So who is it?”

Silverstream felt like she was trapped in a cave now. She obviously couldn’t tell him who it was.

“I…I…can’t say it,” she said.

“But you just told everyone else in the friend group.”

“Yes but unfortunately I can’t tell you though.”

Gallus looked very unhappy now, like someone had just called him fat.

“Uhh, why not?” He asked in a mildly fierce tone.

Silverstream tried to talk her way out of it, but she couldn’t think of a very creative excuse to not tell him.

“Because…I’m not sure I trust you,” she said again. Now Gallus looked very, very angry.

“So you…you trust everyone else in the friend group except me?” He said. All his friends looked at each other sheepishly. They couldn’t think of a reason not to tell him. All they could do was try to talk him down.

“Don’t take it personally Gallus,” said Smolder. Now Gallus was as furious as he could get.

“SERIOUSLY?!! YOU EXPECT ME NOT TO TAKE THIS PERSONALLY!!” He screamed, which grabbed the attention of everyone else in the school library. He chuckled a bit as he saw everyone looking at him.

“Uhh this is a personal conversation everyone, creatures don’t get in on this,” said Yona. Then Gallus continued arguing with his friends.

“So all of you know who Silverstreams crush is, but I don’t get to know.”

“Gallus please just get over it, it’s not a big deal,” said Ocellus, who was pretending to look grumpy and pretending to think Gallus was overreacting.

“No. This is not fair at all. Seriously you call yourselves my friends.” Gallus looked very offended and was tearing up a bit. “And if you guys are going to treat me like this THEN YOU CAN ALL GO FUCK YOURSELVE’S!” And this once again caught the whole library’s attention and they all watched Gallus storm out of the library.

“Oh god what have I done. I’ve seriously fucked up this time,” said Silverstream, beginning to cry a bit.

“Why did you have to tell us Silverstream? Now we all have to keep this a secret from Gallus and he thinks we’re singling him out,” said Smolder.

“But Smolder you’re the one who asked her in the first place,” said Sandbar.

“That’s only because I didn’t know it was someone in our close friend circle. Why couldn’t you have just refused to tell us?”

“Oh for fuck sake Smolder, will you just stop blaming her and admit this is your fault!”

“Okay, I’m sorry.” She said and then turned to everyone. “Look guys how are we supposed to keep this a secret from Gallus, he’s going to be fucking impossible now. Surely we’ll have to tell him eventually or he’s just going to keep being pissed off at us. Knowing Gallus he’s not just going to get over something like this, we know he’s very prone to holding grudges,” she continued.

Silver stream let out a sigh. “Okay, can I just have maybe a couple of weeks to let this sink in.”

“Uhh, okay,” said Smolder grumpily.

“Well Silverstream, maybe he likes you as well, so maybe you SHOULD ask him,” said Sandbar.

“Yeah it’s worth a try,” said Ocellus.

“It’s just that he’s like a close friend of mine, so if he says no, we’ll still probably remain friends for the rest of our lives and it’ll be so awkward,” said Silverstream. “Just…I’ll think about it.”
