Waterloo Road~ Gabriella & Hector Love Story (Fan-Fiction)

Chapter Thirty Three- Harder To Resist

The next day at Waterloo Road was a very strange day indeed. A hard one at that.

I went to school with a positive attitude. Sometimes, I randomly woke up in these types of moods.

I went to my History lesson and Miss. McFall was our teacher. I had Barry and Dynasty in my History group so I was happy enough.

As we sat down, Miss McFall had an important announcement to make apparently so we all looked at her expectantly.

"I am setting you all a History project!" Miss. McFall said enthusiastically.

Groans traveled throughout the room. Miss. McFall explained to us what we had to do. Then, she also announced that she had assigned us in pairs to work in.

Miss McFall began revealing the pairs and I waited for my name to be said.

"Gabriella and Barry", Miss McFall said.

Barry and I both smiled at each other.

"So, in your pairs, you could either work together at school or outside of school", Miss. McFall continued.

The whole History lesson went very s-l-o-w-l-y.

But, finally, it came to an end eventually. We all ran out quickly, eager to get away from this boring lesson. I was about to walk off until Barry grabbed my arm lightly.

"Can I talk to you for a second?" Barry asked.

I simply nodded and we both walked to the graffiti room as we knew that that was private. I leant against the wall. Stood about a metre away from me.

"You know how I kind of saved your life the other night?" Barry asked.

"Yes", I smiled gratefully.

"Well, doesn't that just prove how much I love you", Barry said.

"Barry, don't-" I tried to stop him.

"No, I have to", Barry insisted, "When has he ever saved you from death? Never. Look, we're the ones that were meant to be together. Can't you see that?"

"Okay, why?" I asked, "Why should we apparently be together?"

"Well, for one, I'm the right age", Barry answered, "We have a laugh, I can sense your emotions and, of course, everyone knows that we are right for each other. Even you..."

"Yeah, and how would you know what I think?" I asked.

Barry took a step closer to my face.

"Because I know you", he whispered.

I stared at him with suspicion. He stared back, deeply into my eyes. Then, he took my face gently with his hands and slowly leaned in. Our lips were only centre meters apart. For one second (but just a second), I wanted to lean in and kiss him. But that would be wrong. I wasn't thinking. I closed my eyes and waited for his lips to touch mine.

But, then my sense came back to my head and I quickly pushed him away.

"We can't do this, alright?" I asked him.

He gave me a smirk.

"Nah, it's fine", Barry winked, "That there just proves that you wanted to kiss me. You nearly leaned in. That's good enough for me. I can work with that".

"Me and you are never going to happen again!" I said, annoyed.

"Oh, yeah?" Barry asked, '"We'll see about that, babe".

Barry blew me a cocky kiss and walked off.

I watched him walk away. What is going on? Every time I see Barry and he flirts, it gets harder and harder to not anticipate it. On one hand, I really want him. But, then when I think about Hector, I just stop everything.

I really have a bad feeling that this is going to end very badly for some reason.

And I'm always right...
