Arranged Marriage

Chapter 2

Chapter two: Birthday Accident

Years have pasted by and we always visited Jonathan's house each weekend and breaks.

We started to become really close as ever, we actually became best friends while I developed a crush on him that grows more and more every time I'm with him but I won't say it since I know he won't feel the same.

Even though he still pushes me around by pulling my hair or slamming me with a pillow or tackling me down.

The usual little stupid boy things.

I would get payback by stealing his food or breaking one of his toys or smacking him with a pillow as well.

But in school we always avoided each other even though we are in the same grade.

Weird, right?

He was born in a late season so he started school late. I don't know why they do such a stupid thing but whatever.

Today he was turning 13 and it was like my favorite day. November 23! I don't know why I like it but I just do.

I slipped on some pair of jeans and tee shirt and shoes and met my mother at the door.

"Mother hurry up! Susan can't be waiting all day!!" I yelled grabbing the present I bought Jonathan.

I heard her chuckle while she came with a cake in her hands. "Look who's more happy to go to his house now?" She said raising an eyebrow at me.

I sighed in frustration. "Mother for the last time. We are just best friends. Now come on." I said walking out the house and into the challenger my mother bought.

I won't lie. It's a beast mostly when the color is red wine and lots of men and guys do stare at it a lot or I think they look at my mother.

I shrugged and walked to the back seat and placed the present down. I sat down and placed on my seatbelt and tied my hair up leaving my bangs down. My mother started the engine and and left to his house.

When we got there I took of my belt, took the present and ran out to his house knocking on his door.

A few seconds passed and he opened the door giving me his cheesiest smile.

"Hey Leila! Come on in!" He said grabbing my hand and pulling me in the house.

I saw kids playing with Gaberial which was funny cause one of them tripped him making him fall face first.

I swear, small kids are so evil now!

I handed Jonathan the present and he said thanks while my mother walked over to the kitchen.

"We'll be upstairs!" Jonathan yelled dragging me up stairs.

I giggled at his excitement while we entered his new room. There wasn't no more toys but replaced with a huge plasma television and a Xbox 360 with it. I sat down on his couch he has in one of the corners.

Spoiled brat once again.

"So are you gonna open the present?" I asked watching him walk over to his bed.

He shook his head placing the present down and walked towards me.

"I wanted something different. May I have permission though?" He asked while I felt confused.

Permission for what?

"Um sure it's your birthday anyways." I told him shrugging my shoulder.
