Chapter 156

What would happen in this situation, then when they find out that their idol, the idol whom they look up to, an idol whom they have doted on for so many years, instead of following their expectations and making googly eyes at a girl, making googly eyes at home pretty girl who is kind and benevolent and who will inevitably end up being his woman in the future, instead of him following the expectations everyone else has set out for him, he takes time out of his busy schedule to come visit a friend, a friend who is probably more than a friend the way that I look at it, but said friend who still keeps him at an arm's length.

What the heck am I saying about arm's-length, this isn't arm's-length anything. Adrian simply adores the person he's holding in his arms and I feel sad at that. I don't feel sad at the fact that he would have gone against the normal expectations everyone has had for him, I feel sad at the fact that I have this nagging feeling of exactly how this will end.

I have this nagging feeling at the back of my mind that this won't end well for both of them. You might say that I'm being paranoid, but I'm pretty sure I know what I'm talking about. It is just like in your typical story, the pop star falls for the pretty girl, or boy in this case, but simply can't have them because that isn't what is expected of him. It isn't expected of him as a music sensation whose main population of fans is the female population, it isn't expected of him as a popstar whom basically every girl would throw herself at just so they could be closer to him is deemed normal, it wouldn't be considered acceptable of him as a pop star with such a huge fan base and such popularity.

This relationship is bound to break up one day, and I'm not saying that as someone who is probably jealous, okay I will admit that I am a little bit jealous at the sort of affection that Adrian is showering at my brother.

The more I look at the both of them, the more I just find my attention is captured, my attention is captured by the both of them like a moon drawn to the light of the sun. It seems my eyes cannot leave the pretty picture that the paint right now. Scott is still idling picking through some pairs of shoes while Adrian practically tickles him in the ribs trying to get something of a reaction from him.

I know my brother isn't ticklish in that part and the wicked grin that lights up Adrian's face makes me know that he's also aware of that fact, he was just trying to bait Scott into wearing the self-satisfied look on his face, the self-satisfied look that will be later make space for laughter as Adrian finally gets his tickle spot.

They make a very nice picture together, and that is what saddens me the most.
