Cyrus's POV
"You are late! I was waiting for you" he scolded
The nerves this guy has. Acting like we are best friends.
"Aww, you missed me" I asked teasingly, but I am pretty pissed off now
He is supposed to be an asshole to me!! How will I continue to hate him if he acts like this?!
"Yes" he replied
Fuck!
What am I supposed to say now?
"but I didn't. Fuck off. I don't want to see your ugly face" I snapped
He didn't say anything after that. Just look at me with a straight face.
Why isn't he saying anything? Was it too harsh?
Hell no! We are enemies. It's not a big deal if I insult him.
But he looks like he believed what I said. Has he never seen himself in a mirror? He is not ugly. He is so fucking handsome.
"You are feeling guilty now" he said, grinning like an idiot
Fuck!!
Can he read mind or something? He always knows what's going on in my mind.
"I am not guilty. Why the hell would I be?" I asked, gritting my teeth
"Forget it, do you like the chocolates I sent?" he asked me
"Yes, it was delicious!" I said excitedly before I could even stop myself
Shit! Shit! Shit!
I bite my bottom lips and look away. I cleared my throat and opened my mouth to explain myself but he cut off.
"I knew you would like it. I know they are your favorites" he said
"how did you know that?" I asked, frowning my eyebrows in confusion
"3 months ago at Mr khan's party, you were begging your 2 year old cousin for those chocolates. I saw that" he chuckled
"I never did that!" I almost yelled, drawing unnecessary attention
He chuckled again. Ughhhhhh! Why did he see that?! It's so fucking embarrassing!
"You look adorable when you blush" he chuckled again
"Don't call me that!" I hissed
"Seriously? You just hissed. What are you? A cat? Ooo hello Kitty kitty" he cooed at me
"If you say one more word, you are so fucking dead" I warned, glaring at him
He sighed looking a little bit sad and then suddenly he smiled. I swear I can see the wheels turning in his head.
He looked at me with a big grin on his face. He held up 3 fingers.
"3?" I asked in confusion
Then he held up one finger and pointed at me
"I?" I asked and he nodded
Then he made a heart with his hands
"Heart?" I asked and he shook his head "Umm.. Love?" I asked and he nodded
Then he pointed his index finger toward himself.
"You?" I asked and he nodded again
"I love you" I said all the words together
Wait- what?
I feel heat crawl up to my neck and he start laughing.
"Fuck! What the hell?"
"I love you too but I am sorry. I am not ready for any romantic relationship yet. Sorry to friend zone you" he said, laughing hysterically
"Fuck you bastard!" I almost yelled and turned around to left but he grabbed my hand spin me around
"Why are you mad? You are the one who confessed. I didn't say anything" he said with a playful smile on his lips
"I didn't confess to anything! You tricked me" I defended myself
"how can you blame an innocent person! That's so cruel of you" he said, wiping his fake invisible tears and sniffing
"Will you stop now?!" I said it a little louder, getting few glances
"Okay, fine. I am sorry" he chuckled
"Bastard" I mumbled
"Well, how are uncle and aunty?" he asked me
"they are good" I replied to
"Is aunty really fine now? I know she got discharged from the hospital about a week ago but is she really okay?" he asked, looking really concerned
"Yeah, that was just a viral fever. She is fine now" I replied
I don't get why he always asks about their well being. My parents don't give a fuck about him. They curse him, they wish he dies. They hate him and his family more than anything. He knows that but still, he always worries about them. When my mom was hospitalized for a week, he called me everyday. Sometimes I wonder if he is really so naive and dumb or just acting?
"Cyrus" he called me, snapping me out of my thoughts
"hmm?"
"I am going to check on my brother. You enjoy" he said and left
I sighed. Finally some peace. I turn around to see my parents looking at me seriously from a distance.
Well... Shit.
They come near me and mom grab my hand.
"What were you two talking about? Did he insult you? Just tell me and I will show him who real Amy kartz is" Mom said
"What did he say?" Dad asked, seriously
"Nothing. He was just annoying me like he always does. Trying to get on my nerves. And mom don't worry, he didn't insult me but I did" I said
"That's like my son!" mom said with a proud look on her face
I love it when she looks so proud because of me. I will do anything for that one look.
"Be careful with him. He is just like his grandfather. First gain trust and then stab in your back" Dad said
"I know. I will never trust him. We don't trust our enemies" I said, gaining another proud look from my parents
Yes, he is my enemy, nothing more than that. He is all fake. It's in his blood to betray. I can't trust him. I won't disappoint my parents. Again.
After a few more minutes there, I left. While I was in my car, I got a message from him.
Where are you? I couldn't find you ≈ Zayn
I left ≈ I replied
Why didn't you say bye? ≈ Zayn
because you don't matter to me ≈ I replied
He reads but didn't text anything after that. I don't understand why he always expects me to say bye before leaving. It's not like we are friends or anything.
Why does he always try to be my friend? We are enemies. Nothing more than that.
Just enemies.
