Y/N's POV:
Every thing from his tattooed arms that stretched to his neck, to his brunette shoulder lengthed hair, to his gorgeous brown orbs had me so.. surprised. Surprised by how much my best friend Oliver Sykes had changed. I should say that he used to be my best friend, before he got extremely popular and basically dumped me as a friend.
He was now the bad ass, popular guy of the school that had all the girls after him. I wanted Oli to notice me again, to speak to me again. But he never gives me the time of day.
I sit in the lunch area, eyeing their table with envy. Wishing it were me that was sitting with him. I do have feelings for Oliver, I couldn't deny that. But I didn't want to have feelings for him, it was near impossible to have Oliver Sykes feel the same way for me.
I need to at least try though, right?
I notice Oli standing up from his table and moving towards the exit. This is my chance. I get up from my seat and quickly walk towards Oliver. I notice that when I start walking towards him the entire table of "popular" people were staring straight at me. Mostly Amber, the queen bee who thinks she can get anything and every thing she wants. I loathe her.
As I get closer to Oli, my heart beat starts to pick up its pace. As Oli puts his hand on the door to push it open, I lightly tap on his shoulder. Oliver swings around making me jump back a little. "H-hey Oliver, I'm not sure if you remember me.. But we used to be really close friends" I speak nervously.
"Yes Y/N, I remember you" he speaks in monotone making me grow uneasy. Why did I do this?
"I was just wondering if you- uh- umm" Oliver starts to give me an intimidating stare that makes me shrink back into the little shell I had grown accustomed to. I could hear Amber's obnoxious laughing as the rest of the table join her. I push past Oli and run out the door of the lunch room. Never have I ever been so embarrassed in my life.
I burst through the doors of the school and slide down the wall. I feel tears escape my eyes, why did I choose to do that? I should have known he wouldn't want anything to do to me. People walking past me glance my way but they do not approach me.
I notice two shadows walk up towards me and for a second I hoped one of them would be Oliver. I slowly lift my head to be met with Amber and Jacob. Jacob was one of the guys that followed Amber around like a lost puppy.
"Oh, look who it is. The girl who thought she had a chance with Oli!" Amber starts to giggle uncontrollably. Jacob chuckles along with her. I remain silent.
"Grow up Y/N and face reality, a guy as hot as Oli would never ever go for something like you! You're disgusting and Oli is a babe" Amber says smugly. I feel water brim my eyes but I would never give her the satisfaction of seeing me cry. "Get her Jacob"
My eyes widen in alarm as Jacob offers a kick to my face followed by multiple blows to the face. "Please stop!" I shout, trying to break free. Amber just continues laughing. I cover my face with my arms as Jacob continues to punch me.
But then I didn't feel the impact of his fists anymore. Or the agonising pain I felt when he kicked me. I slowly look up to see (much to my surprise) Oliver there. But this is where it got weirder, he was beating up Jacob.
"Don't. Fucking. Touch. Her!" Oliver yells inbetween punches. You could tell by the look on Jacob's face that he was scared to death. "Oli! Don't stick up for this trash" Amber says, putting a hand on Oli's chest. Oli steps away from her touch as if she were poison. "You, shut up and stop teasing her. Leave her the hell alone!" Oli yells the last part at the top of his voice. With one last push he storms off out of the school.
I decide to try this again and run after him. I had to know why he stuck up for me.
I take off after Oliver as fast as my legs could take me. "Oliver! Please stop!" I yell after him. Oli comes to a halt making me run straight into him. "Sorry" I quickly apologise. Oli stays still, looking straight ahead of him. I walk around so that I am standing directly in front of him. I look up to meet his deep brown eyes that always had me looking in them for way too long.
"Why did you do that? Stick up for me, why?" I blurt out. Oli takes a deep breath. As if he were low on oxygen. He finally lets his eyes fall, to rest on me. Then he did the unexpected, Oli grabs me by the back of the neck and pulls my face forward to connect our lips. They move quickly and desperately. As if he were waiting for this. Oli's hands trail down the sides of my body to rest on my hips as my arms find his neck.
Once we pull away from the kiss, my eyes widen from shock. "Wh- I don't understand" I say, shaking my head. "I like you, Y/N. I have for a long time, ever since year 8. I started to get more popular and I figured it was a way to distract myself from you because I knew that you would never like me back and I didn't want to lose you as a friend.. but I did. I regret that day I let you go so much, when I saw you getting teased every day it made me angry but when Jacob started beating you up. I couldn't control myself and it's now that I realise that I still like you. Maybe it's even love, I don't know yet. But what I do know, is that I like you. A lot. I'm sorry." Oli says quietly.
I stand there dumbfounded. He likes me? Oliver Sykes likes me? This is surreal. Oli looks at me, but not just looks at me, he looks into my eyes. Trying to read my emotions. I couldn't find the words to speak, more so I didn't know what to say.
I did the only thing I could think of and that was kiss him once again. This time more gently. I smile into the kiss because I have wanted this for so long. We pull away after a good 30 seconds. "I like you too Oli, I always have" I smile brightly.
"God, I've always loved it when you call me Oli" he says, pulling me close against his body. I inhale his heavenly scent and the way his arms rest so comfortably on my lower back. I knew he was the one for me and now I've finally got him.
"Let's go" Oli says taking my hand. "Where?" I ask.
"Our first date" Oli winks. I giggle and follow him to wherever he was leading me.
~the next day at school~
I arrive at school to see Oli leaning against the gates with a cigarette between his lips. My god, he was gorgeous. I walk up towards him and take the smoke from his lips, taking a drag for myself. Oli smiles at me and leans in to kiss me.
We turn to walk into the school building with our hands intertwined. All eyes were on us. The expressions were mixed, some were amused, confused, jealous and even scared. I see Amber and smirk slightly at the outraged look on her face.
Amber storms up to us, her heels clicking on the linoluem floor. "Oli! What are you doing?!" she screeches. "Holding hands with my girlfriend, what about you?" Oli answers sarcastically, making me laugh a bit. "No, you were supposed to be with me! Not this... thing! Come on Oli" Amber pouts trying to take his hand. Which I found quite amusing.
"First of all, only Y/N is allowed to call me Oli, secondly I would never go there with you. Ever. Everyone has been there and done that so I don't want to catch anything, goodbye Amber" Oli spits. Pulling me along with him and moving his hand to rest around my waist. I look back to see Amber's angry and defeated face. 'victory!' I silently cheer to myself.
Oli looks down at me and smiles, I smile back up at him as he leans down to plant a kiss on my forehead then he pulls me tighter against him. This just goes to show that good things do come to those who wait.
