Chapter 33: Playing Pretend.

7th September 2015, Monday.

(After skipping school last Friday.. You and Sara enter the school as everyone again looks at you..)

Sara: Ignore them..

Jay: I'm trying.

Bradley: Hi babe! (He hugs you)

Just acting.. (he whispers in your ear)

Jay: Oh Hey.. babe.. (He looks at the few girls who are starting at you two)

Bradley: Hey? Any problem? (They walk away)

Ignore them, they are just jealous.

Jay: Jealous?

Bradley: Yeah because I'm dating you.

Jay: Careful Bradley, your inner Narcissus is coming out.

Bradley: What's that? Do you mean "Narcissist"?

Jay: I..

Niall: Hey.

Jay: Hey..

Niall: Hi Sara.

Sara: Hi to you as well. (He nods at Bradley who nods back)

Two alpha males not saying "Hi" to each other is my favorite genre.

Bradley: No we-

Niall: I-

Jay: Anyways I think we are blocking the hallway. Let's just go.

Bradley: May I? (Bradley slings his arm around your shoulders)

Lead you to your class babe?

(Niall's eyes dart away)

Jay: Sure… Bye guys.

Niall: Bye.

Sara: See ya.

(You walk with Bradley..)

. . .

(Later..

You sit outside completing an important essay..)

Jay: And… done! (You get a text message from Niall)

"Greenhouse rn?" (You look towards the green house.. you quickly pack up your laptop and head towards it.. after entering you slowly close the door)

Jay: Niall?.. Niall? (You quietly call him..)

Nial- Woo- (Someone pulls you and drags you away behind the wall of plants)

Woah woah. (You look to see it's Niall)

Niall what the hell? Warn me next time.

Niall: I'm sorry.. I know you said you need some time.. but.. I really need.. (His hands caress your face).. You.

Jay: Niall.. Someone might see us.

Niall: No one comes here and you know that.. Are you.. Do you not like me anymore?

Jay: It's not that simple..

Niall: Do you like.. Bradley?

Jay: What? No..

Niall: I'm sorry for asking that.. so, what's the issue?

Jay: Few days ago you ignored me, claimed that you're straight and now you want everything. Things take time..

Niall: Man I really screwed up huh?

Jay: A little.. but I'm not going anywhere. I'm here and you can fix things.
