I'm furious. I don't understand why Silas acted that way with Everest. He was being territorial and I didn't like that. Everest is my friend and I don't like the way Silas treated him. I admit that Everest may be a little bit touchy, but he was just being friendly. This is how he usually is with me. "You shouldn't have acted like that," I tell Silas with a frown as we walk out of the café. "Everest is my friend and you shouldn't have treated him that way." "Friends don't act like that Rosie," he argues. His face shows the anger he's doing his best to conceal.

"We act like that Silas and we're friends," I remind him. Why is he giving himself the right to act that way, but expects Everest to act differently? Doesn't he see the way we hug and how we kiss each other on the cheeks?

"Are you actually comparing our friendship to your friendship with him?" Disbelief is obvious on his face and I can't help but wonder if he's right. "We have been friends for six years, Rosie! You have known him for less than six months and he's acting like that!" "You're acting like our friendship has been long," I scoff. Maybe I'm taking it too far. Why am I acting like this? My friendship with Everest is fairly new, but I still don't like how nosy Silas is being. He doesn't have the right to act like that. He is just my friend! A friend who used to do nothing but infuriate me!

"What do you mean?" He frowns in confusion.

"Nothing," I mumble, not wanting to escalate the situation.

"No, Rosie. I want to know," he presses and I sigh.

He treats me so well. No guy has ever treated me like that. Whenever we're together, it's hard to get bored. I cannot bring myself to forget the way he massaged my scalp when I told him I had a headache when we
