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

Chapter Thirty Eight- Barry Getting The Wrong Idea

It has been really weird and strange lately. Barry has been sending me texts such as-

Hey, babes. How are you? Missing you. <3 Xxx

Do you need help with your English homework? Always here. Xxx

You are so beautiful. Xxx

It was texts like that and they were really confusing me. He was acting as if we were in a romantic relationship yet we weren't. I didn't reply to any of the messages simply because I didn't know how to respond. I had a feeling I would talk to him at school though, as always.

I walked to school as usual and, surprise surprise, Barry was waiting for me. He strangely greeted me by kissing me fully on the lips.

"What are you doing?" I quickly pulled away.

"What do you mean?" Barry looked confused.

"You just kissed me", I said as if it was obvious.

"I know", Barry nodded, "So?"

"Why did you?" I asked.

"Because that's what couples do", Barry squinted curiously.

"Yeah, maybe", I agreed, "But we're not a couple, aren't we?"

"What you on about?" Barry asked, "You kissed me yesterday".

"Um, no", I shook my head, "You kissed me and I didn't pull away. There's a difference".

"Okay, fair enough", Barry shrugged, "But, still, we kissed and you can't deny that there was something there".

"Barry, it was a kiss", I told him, "That's it. I'm with Hector, remember?"

"Oh, you've got to be kidding me", Barry sighed furiously, "After we slept together. He'll find out. Every single lie, they always find out".

Barry smirked evilly at me and walked away confidently.

At that moment, Hector walked up to me curiously.

"You alright?" Hector asked suspiciously.

"I'm fine", I nodded slightly.

"What was he doing, talking to you?" Hector asked, looking annoyed.

"Just...nothing", I shrugged it off, "See you later".

With that, I quickly walked off and avoided all eye contact with him. I couldn't even look him in the eyes without still feeling guilty. What if Barry is right? What if he does find out?

To be extremely honest, being with Hector has been getting quite boring recently. But, when I'm with Barry, there's always drama or excitement. And I've always been one to love drama. I think I just answered my own question I've been wondering for ages. Hector or Barry?

Actually, being with Barry and all the drama probably won't last. But maybe it can? I don't even know.

I picture Hector and I in the future. Seems happy enough.

Then, I picture Barry and I in the future. Fun. That's the first word that springs to mind.

So, which is more important? Happiness or adrenaline rushes?

It's happiness, right? That's the logical answer, I suppose.

I guess I will just have to see where things go from now on. I shall leave it up to fate and just go with the flow.
