My bully had to be Boun.

Chapter 18

Prem POV

I did a lot of thinking. I would lie to myself if I say Boun doesn't affect me anymore, he definitely does, I can't stop dreaming about him. I don't know how he planned on courting me but stealing a kiss from me definitely did the trick. I want more and I can't get enough, I know it is wrong to consider his feelings, just to resolve my desires but I decided to give Boun a chance. No matter how much I hated him in the past, I knew he didn't mean to hurt me. And I am ever so thankful and even impressed by him because he saved me.

Monday came, I got ready for school and as usual, I went down to get my bike from the garage. But I already see Boun's car waiting just in front of my house. I'm nervous, it's not rare to see Boun in this part of the neighborhood, he is here most of the time because he visits Arthur a lot. But today he wasn't standing near Arthur's house, instead, he was right in front of mine. But why? I locked the door behind me and Boun walked up. He is in his usual flashy clothes, but unlike all other days, he has a bright smile plastered on his face. He saw me and he smiled wider, when we were a few steps apart he spread his arms. Maybe he hoped that I would hug him, but I'm not gonna do that. So I just stand there and ask "what are you doing here?"

"I'm here to pick you up for school of course," he still had his arms spread.

" I am not riding with you," I say looking at the orange-colored monster which he calls his car. His driving the other day almost took my life away, I was so terrified by the speed he drove. I'd prefer my bike to his Jeep or Lamborghini any day. Well, I can't deny that it's super cool to ride in that car, but I love my life better.

"C'mon baby... I promise I won't speed" he pleaded. I found that cute, but why are his hands still in mid-air, he knows quite well that I was not gonna return a hug.

He stood there pretending to sulk. Any girl at Lincoln High would kill to have Boun behave like this with them, but unfortunately for them, this idiot is into me, and I still can't believe that entirely, I mean the kiss couldn't have been fake. "Urgh, okay," I said and I walked past him without hugging him.

Two steps later I felt Boun's arms hugging my waist from behind "you don't walk away without giving me a hug" he says

"What the... Stop it, someone might see"

"You think I care if someone sees us?"

" Umm, yess, I guess"

"Well don't, because we can do anything we want, if they are uncomfortable they are free to close their eyes"

" We are getting late for class"

" Fine then," he said reluctantly and walked to the driver's seat, and took the wheel.

We reached school, on the way Boun told me that Arthur got a new car and he will be picking up Ben from today onwards, that meaning I have to go with him, as much as I tried to deny it, it looked like he wasn't offering or requesting me to ride with him, he made his decision and I didn't have any other way than to listen, I was annoyed at first, but when I think about it, I was a little bit tired of riding to school every day. And I can get there early as well. It's nice that someone can get me to school for free.

Everyone looked at us like we had committed some blasphemy, no not because they suspect Boun is gay and I may or may not be one too. They were clearly not accepting the fact that I, an average boy, was riding with the coolest guy in school. I understand how they feel, even I would have been shocked if Boun rode with anyone except the people from his gang. But I guess now I am a part of his gang but no one knew that yet. Nevertheless, we try to ignore all the stares and walk past everyone to our classroom. Halfway through he stopped to get some stuff from his locker and I did the same as well. When I stopped and processed literally everything, I didn't actually know how to deal with all this attention.
