Ville and I became close friends over the next three years. He started to teach me how to play bass and by time I was eleven I was pretty good. Ville was better of course. We still lived next door to each other and I still had a crush on him and he still seemed completely uninterested in any girls.
I remembered one day though we were hanging out in his room with our other friend who played bass, Mikko. I was laying on his bed, while they both sat on the floor, Mikko was playing the beginning to 'Hand Of Doom' and Ville was reading something, laid out on the floor. I was starting to get bored so I got up and sat on Ville's back. He grunted.
"I'm bored," I sighed and looked down at him.
"Well than find something to do than." Ville answered, still not looking up from his book.
"I can't, that's why I'm bored." I said 'Bored' loudly. Ville finally looked up at me over his shoulder and raised an eyebrow. His hair had finally darkened to brown but it was still as wild as ever.
"Fine, we'll play a game." I smiled and wrapped my arms around Ville's neck and kissed his cheek.
"Yay! You’re my best friend!" I squealed.
"Yeah Yeah," Ville mumbled getting up and turning off Mikko's amp.
"Hey!" he protested, Ville placed his hands on his hips and looked down at him frowning.
"If I suffer, you suffer." I giggled as Mikko glared at me.
"What game?" Mikko asked, scratching his greasy head. I touched my chin and made a thinking sound.
"Hide and seek!" I exclaimed. Ville and Mikko looked at each other before they both nodded in agreement.
"Not it!" Me and Mikko shouted at the same time, Ville groaned.
"You snooze you lose!" I stuck my tongue out at him as he walked in the closet to start counting. The moment he was safely hidden, I ran downstairs and hid in the living room closet. I remembered that Ville had always been freaked out by that closet for some reason and it was the prefect spot for hiding. I giggled to myself as I closed the door, leaving myself in darkness. The dark never scared me anyway.
Ville never did find me in that spot.
I guess I was thirteen when we started to drift apart. Ville and Mikko started a band together and I was always the odd one out. I didn't have any other friends so when they'd ditch me to go practice I would have to stay home and sulk. For my birthday I was so sure that Ville would come over but he never did. I was alone and very hurt that he'd just forget about me. I had made our friendship out to be a lot more in my mind than it was in real life I guessed. It still hurt though.
One morning my Mama said she was going over to the Valo's and asked if I wanted to come? I did, hopping maybe I could talk to Ville and find out if he was only my friend because he felt he had to be.
Mrs. Valo told me that Ville was in his room and that I could just go right up. I knocked first of course and Ville answered it. He hadn't changed much but he had gotten taller.
"Hey Rose," He smiled and turned to walk back in his room. I fallowed him seeing as he left the door open and wacthed him sit back on his bed and pick up a book.
"Ville? I was wondering if we could talk?" He looked up at me and put the book down, giving me his full attenion.
"Do I annoy you?" I asked after a few moments.
"No, what gave you that idea?" I bit my lip and looked at the floor, not wanting to see those jade orbs.
"Well, it's just we haven't seen in each in a while and it seemed like every time I tried to hang out with you guys. . . you didn't really want me there." Ville sighed and got up and put his hands on my shoulders.
"You girls are so sensitive, I actually missed having you around. I thought you were mad at ME." He laughed and I smiled.
"I'm glad you don't hate me than." Ville frowned,
"Of course I don't hate you, you’re my best friend." My smile faded. His friend. I was his friend.
"Your friend, huh?" I asked, Ville frowned again and tried to get me to smile.
"Yeah, what's wrong now?" I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
"What if I don't want to be your friend. . . "
"What?"
"What if I want to be your girlfriend?" I waited for a reaction for what seemed forever. His eyes got wide and he became very quiet. I chewed the inside of my mouth and waited.
"Do you. . . .like me? Like, like me like me?" He asked, his cheeks heating up and turning pink. The air in the room suddenly got thick.
"Yeah, I think." Ville backed up from me slightly, his eyes darting around confussed.
"What do you mean, you think?"
"I mean, I think I like you." I was starting to think this was a bad idea.
"Well, how do you know for sure?"
"I guess I could. . . kiss you?" I almost smiled. I hadn't kissed him since grade school. Personally I thought he'd forgotten that I had ever kissed him.
"Ok," Ville sighed and I looked up at him. He stepped closer so we were only an inch away from each other. My gaze dropped to his mouth and my heart jumped up in my throat. Ville closed his eyes and I leaned in and gently pressed my lips to his. He froze and so did time for me. I felt my whole body start to tingle and a giggly, bubbly feeling start to rise in my chest. It was amazing! Than it stopped, Ville pulled away glowing bright red and he cleared his throat.
"Well?" He asked, clearly very uncomfortable.
I made a quick choice. I could say yes I did feel something and make our friendship weird, or I could say no and we could go back to being nomarl friends.
"No, I didn't feel anything. You?" Ville's eyebrow rised in surpirse.
"Oh no, no. I didn't either."
"Well good, than." I smiled and sat down on his bed. Ville returned the smile and sat next to me. From that moment on we were just friends again. But I often wondered why he paused for so long while we kissed and the strange way he acted after.
