HE'S MINE

038

Me: Yuzuha why are you doing this?

It felt like my brain and stopped working properly, I was getting mad at everyone for everything. My mind kept repeating that they were becoming a hurdle, and I was agreeing to it. This feeling was going to make me draw away my friends from me, but I was in too much love to understand it.

Yuzuha: What did I do?

Me: This!

Yuzuha: You told Sanzu you are going with me.

Oh! So Sanzu was behind this plan, why was he being so difficult. I closed my eyes shut in irritation and clenched my fist. Why can't he leave me alone? Why was he being so clingy?

Me: Why is he being so irritating? Why can't he get a hint that I am not interested in him? Why is he looking for ways to make me talk to him?

It was an outburst, without thinking about my words or how they will sound, I wrote them ruthlessly and hit the sent button. I never really opened her chat again due to the sole reason that I did not want to ruin my mood and thankfully, she never reached back as well.

The next day, Mikey dropped us at the school. He wasn't very talkative at the beginning, which made me worried for a second, but as he parked the car, he opened the door for me, which kind of gave me relief.

I was heading in the direction of the classroom when Yuzuha approached me, she hadn't answered me back last night.

We both greeted each other with a fake smile and approached the gang briskly. I didn't want to them just like that, so my plan has been to just avoid them here and there, spend less time with them and they'll eventually get the hint.

"So you two are going together?" one of the guys asked us, trying to tease Hanma, who I guess hadn't been on good terms with Yuzuha and me of course. I was pissed at people repeating that statement. Sanzu did tell every single one of his gang members. Why do they care who I go to this party with?

"No! I'm not going." Yuzuha didn't bother looking at me, Sanzu was standing opposite us as we all stood in a circle. Hanma was on the left side of Sanzu and Yuzuha on the right side of me.

"Why, you got no date?" Hanma had a smirk on his face. He was this pleased to hurt Yuzuha, all that because of me and what have I been doing to her was even worse, I felt a hint of guilt in my skin.

Have you ever been in love before? The kind of love that made you selfish? I was head over heels in that kind of love with Mikey so I decided to shut the thoughts that had anything to do with anyone else's feelings except for mine and Mikey's.

"Why, do you have a date?" Yuzuha questioned back, looking bluntly in his eyes. His answer wasn't what we were expecting, he went far.

"I got a date the moment I ended things with my ex." he looked straight into her eyes and muttered, making Yuzuha's jaw hinge wide open. Everyone cheered him like it was the best comeback of the year, but Yuzuha defines broken. And she called them her friends, I was happy to be out of that toxic group soon.

"That's why every fuckboy does." Sanzu, who watched Yuzuha's face going pale, added, making Hanma awkwardly stare at his friend. "It's not something you should be proud of." he finished. I can tell he doesn't like Hanma teasing Yuzuha, but was that comment really for Hanma? Because Hanma hadn't been fucked around, oh my God! This was for Mikey. It has to be for Mikey, Sanzu was jealous of Mikey.

"One should look at himself first." I spat, frowning in irritation. Everybody glanced at me and then at Sanzu, who had no idea why I passed that comment. Why? He thought he would take a dig at Mikey and I won't say anything?

"Was that for me?" he didn't waste a single second to voice out. He pointed his finger at his chest and bent ahead, everybody silently stared at us.

"Did I say your name?" I shrugged my shoulders, Yuzuha glared at me to shut me up, of course, she'll, after all, he was her bodyguard and she was his. Or maybe they were more than that.

"Is there something bothering you Miss Y/n?" Sanzu, who was staring at me constantly now, asked, keeping his calm. After the last day, when he, himself denied going out to the party with me, Sanzu had been acting a bit salty.

"Nope," I shook my head, "you are just imagining things," I added, "Maybe drugs have gotten into your head," I whispered that part, but my bad, everybody heard it. Okay! Might not be a good time or choice of words, but doing drugs isn't cool.

"Okay, that was a good joke." Yuzuha faked a laugh to make everyone easy, to make them think I was just joking. I wasn't, Sanzu had to stay away from me or he was going to mess up my chance with Mikey.

Sanzu watched my face blankly and then lowered his eyes, I can tell he didn't like it. If you can't take comment on yourself, don't pass it on to others as well.

"I gotta go," I mumbled and walked away towards the class.

"You must." Hanma scoffed, I wanted to turn around and answer him bitterly, but he wouldn't spare me after that so I decided to make it appear as if I didn't even hear him.

"Who are you doing this all for?" Yuzuha approached me and said, walking along my side as she expected an answer from me. She was getting on my nerves, Sanzu's friend broke her heart, she should have left them too.

I didn't reply to her after that, Honestly, I had nothing to say. What did I possibly gonna say? That I'm going insane? That I am lost?

I attended the rest of the class silently, rethinking my actions and my decisions. Sanzu had been there for me, he had always saved me from troubles, and what I said to him in the morning was just plain wrong, but then what about Mikey? What about Shinichiro, the things he told me were not cool. If I kept hanging around with Sanzu, there will be more nasty rumors spread around, which I won't want for myself. I swirled my head to the side and my eyes fall on the small window, which showed me my reflection, is it scary to say I didn't recognize the girl I was staring at my reflection. Who was she? This wasn't me.

I was feeling lifeless, the class was over and I was leaving the classroom, but my ruined mood brightened up when someone grabbed the books out of my hand and my bag too, I jumped in terror and quickly veered to see Mikey is standing behind me, talking to Mr. Grandpa on the phone and my books and bag in his hand. I didn't answer h but followed him, every single girl was staring at us. I was blushing nonstop, his tall back facing me as we reached the car.

"How was your day?" He asked, opening the door for me. It felt like I was in heaven, his eyes had sparked in them, I was loving every bit of him.

"It was great," I mumbled and tug strands of hair behind my ear. He passed me a smile, not breaking the eye contact.

"You didn't answer my question," he whispered and quickly regained his posture when Emma appeared out of nowhere.

"What is going on here?" She asked, looking suspiciously at us. I just stared at Mikey, I wanted to see how he answers her.
