One Out of Two!!

16. Dark

"What are you discussing with Robert?" Peter asked me as we left our street.

"He apologized to me, he's asking me to forgive him for that night," I said.

"Oh! Cool. I told you he isn't that bad guy." He said.

"Umm.." I hummed.

"So, you are friends with him now?" He asked.

"I'm.. " I was about to say something and he grabbed my hand, planted a kiss on it.

"I missed you beautiful." He said.

"I'm not beautiful," I said.

"You must be blind." He mumbled through my hand. He kept my hand touching his lips and I can feel his breath on my hand.

"You are.." I rolled my eyes.

"You are beautiful, that's why even Robert wants to hook up with you." He said and I pulled my hand out.

"Shut up!" I groaned and he chuckled.

"It's true." He said and I looked out.

"Will you stop. I'm not talking about this now." I said, he smiled.

He stayed silent and drove me to the pond that is just a few feet away from his house. We sat down enjoying the weather and talking stupid things, teasing each other. I told him that I arranged a costume for Wendy and he felt really happy.

We talked about our friends, his brother and his girlfriend. Time flew away and it is almost 7:30 in the evening. After spending a peaceful time with Peter I didn't want to go home. I want to spend a little more time with him but I should not be late.

"I should leave now," I said and watched his reaction.

"Okay. Let's go I'll drop you." He said and I looked away.

"I wanna walk home. I'll go on walking." I said just to listen to him say he would walk along with me, so we can spend a little more time together.

"By walking?" He raised his brows.

"Yeah, I just want to," I mumbled.

"Okay let's go. I'll come with you." He said.

Plan worked. I'm so smart.

I giggled lightly and stood up on my feet. We crossed the avenue and entered the road slowly. Then a car appeared before us but I ignored it until I heard a voice.

"Hey, Peter!" We heard a female voice and looked towards the car. Through the window, I saw her face.

It's Betty.

She's smiling at Peter and I quickly shifted my eyes to Peter's face, he's smiling back. Suddenly I feel some sort of way like I lost all my mood, I feel very upset. Am I jealous?

Peter walked close towards her car and I stood without moving an inch. I can hear her, she said "Get in the car." to Peter and instantly I hate her voice. They talked something for a minute which is not audible and then Peter walked back to me.

Thank god! He came back. I thought he would come and say let's go but I was wrong.

"Anna! I need to go. Text me when you reach home." He said and ran towards Betty's car. They both drove away right next to me leaving me alone in the cold.

What the fuck!!

For God sake, I never expected this from Peter. How can he leave me alone? That too for Betty? His crush? OMG!!
