Somethings Never Change - HugFia

Chapter 20

Sofia's POV
"Hey you two made it" said Owen as he stood up from his seat

"Hi" I said with a smile

"Hey there, I'm-" said Eleanor as she hold her hand out

Before she could even finish her sentence, Owen then gave her a sweet smile and interrupted her introduction

"Eleanor" said Owen "I remember, the girl who is very enthusiastic during my concert in Corinthians Sports School" he then shook her hand

"You remember-?" said Eleanor with her eyes wide open "That's embarrassing" she then chuckle so that she would cover up her embarrassment

With that Owen really enjoyed Eleanor's company, they couldn't really stop talking and that's when I realise Owen is pretty interested in her. I guess I'm right about the fact that he's interested in her since the day where he keep on asking about Eleanor's topic

The one thing I still can't believe is that my idol, is now my friend and here he is having dinner with us. This is a dream come true

"Fuck no-" said by a person that's not far from our table

I then lift my head up as I saw Hugo walking towards our table while being in a call with someone

"Got to go, see you later" said Hugo as he hang up on the call "Hey nice to meet you. I'm Hugo" he then introduce himself while giving Owen a hand shake

"Nice to meet you too. You probably know me already" said Owen as he smile towards Hugo while Hugo return a smile and nod before taking a seat beside me

"Hey" I said once he took a seat beside me

"Hey, has Daxton arrive already?" asked Hugo

"Uhh no, not yet" I replied while looking at the time on my phone

"Oh okay" said Hugo as he scroll through his phone

And then the both of us went silent while Owen and Eleanor are still in their two people only paradise. I can't deal with this cold war between Hugo and me anymore, I need to know what has gotten between us.

"Hugo we need to talk" I said as I look at Hugo who was still on his phone

Hugo didn't respond nor look at me which he only nodded waiting for me to continue

"What has gotten between us? A few days ago, we were still chatting happily away and now? Suddenly there's a wall between us, I want to know where this wall came from" I said

"What if I say there's some person who came between us? And that person is the wall?" said Hugo as he look at me in the eye

"Who? Who is this person then?" I asked raising my voice a little

Hugo then look around the room seeing Eleanor and Owen looking at the both of us

"Excuse us" said Hugo as he pull me up from my seat

Hugo then pulled me out of the restaurant as he then ask me to take a seat on a bench. Hugo didn't say anything as he stare blankly at the starry night sky. I then open my mouth wanting to ask about the subject before but then I close back my mouth as I saw Hugo trying to enjoy the view

I might have a theory that the wall Hugo was referring to could be Daxton. Yes I'm not that dumb, well he's kinda obvious though. But I just don't want to accept the fact that Hugo likes me well incase if that person is not me then things would be more easier. He's one of my best friends, but I just have no feeling towards him. And I hope he will give up this feeling for me soon, I don't want to break his heart real deep.

"You know," said Hugo as he turn his attention towards me "I just love this girl very much"

"A girl?" I question him trying to sound surprise

"Yup there's this girl, she's beautiful, kind, a quick thinker, selfless and one of the bravest girl I ever met" said Hugo with a smile on his face "The wall that's between us isn't who you are thinking of"

So it isn't Daxton? Well I guess the girl he's talking about now isn't me then

"So who's this girl?" I ask

"You do know her pretty well" said Hugo as he turn he's attention back to the sky

Eleanor? Amber? Vivian? Hildegard? No not Hildegard, she's with Zandar. Wait what if Zandar is the wall? No it can't be, Hugo and Hildegard are not that close. Guessing people's name here sounds ridiculous

"So are you planning on telling her yet?" I ask

Hugo just smile as he shook his head "I wish I could, seems like she already found someone"

"That's a bummer" I said as I turn my focus to another direction

We then went back into silent mode as we both continue to stare blankly in any direction. As I turn my head to face Hugo, I could tell that he's hesitating about something.

"I always love-" I said

Before I could even finished my sentences, Hugo's fingers were place under my chin as he then turn my face to face him. He was still hestitaing until he then place a quick kiss on my cheek

"Wait-" I said totally in shock "What-?"

Hugo didn't say a word as he turn away as fast as he could

"That girl is me isn't it?" I blurted out

Hugo then look at me before replying casually "No"

"But- you just-?" I said

"Your cheeks are just too tempting," said Hugo still looking at me like nothing has happen before

"You're lying, how did you even come out with such a lie" I said

"You think I'm lying?" said Hugo as he's face came closer to mine "Well I'm not okay" he then gave me a light smirk

His face is just inches away from me as he stare into my eyes coldly. The warm carbon dioxide that came out from his nose touches my skin each time he breaths out.

I couldn't move as my eyes are lock into his. I haven't really took a clear look of how Hugo's eyes are in a perfect pale green colour.

Once Hugo got back his senses, he then set up straight as he adjust his black jacket.

"Let's go back inside shall we?" said Hugo as he lend me a hand "They must be wondering where we are"

I then smile as I took his hand. I quickly dusted my dress before walking back into the restaurant

"Hugo, wait" I called as I tap on his shoulder

He then look at me as he re-do his neck tie

"Are we cool now?" I asked

He then nodded his head with a smile "We're cool"

I then gave him a grin as I pulled him into the restaurant where everyone was waiting. There sitting Owen and Eleanor who was still chatting, and Daxton who was on his phone

"Where did the both of you went?" asked Daxton as he lift his head up "I've been texting the two of you. Did you get my messages?"

"Nowhere" I said

"Doing something that you could not even imagine" said Hugo under his breath

I quickly elbowed Hugo as he look at me with his eyebrow raise and a shurg

We then took a seat beside each other as he and Daxton started chatting off about their stuff. Eleanor then excused herself to the toilet as Owen then turn to me with a smile

"She's pretty fun to talk to" said Owen

"Gald you enjoyed her company" I said as I chuckle

The rest of dinner was perfect. I guess everyone enjoyed their Velentine night especially Daxton who went on a wine drinking spree, but to my surprise he is at the sober stage. And I had a fun night as well, though its still kinda confusing about the kiss on the cheek and the someone who is interfering the both of our friend relationship.
