Athena's POV.

Why am I seeing that guy everywhere? I don't even know his name.

I have no idea who he is and what he is yet I keep seeing him over and over again.

I'm starting to think he is stalking me at this point but I know damn well no guy would ever catch any kind of feelings for me. I have no flavour for that. There's nothing special about me and I'm too fed up with my own self to be worrying about someone else deeply.

Besides that, there is something about his blue eyes. I don't usually notice things this way but when it comes to him, I'm speechless. I feel like they're hiding so much.

I have so many things I'd want to ask him. I don't know...I'm somehow attracted. Which is wrong, I don't have time for that. Furthermore, my dad would officially kill me.

"Are you still not going to tell us?" Shawn brought up the same question again.

It's literally been three weeks and the three of them have not let it go yet.

"Tell you guys what?" I asked pretending I had no idea.

"Listen, if you like any guy we need to approve first don't you agree so?" Sam was looking at me like a mother would look at his child.

"I don't like any guy" I stated.

"Are you sure?" he asked.

"Yes" I confirmed.

"Then, why did you made those guys get expelled? And why did you even do it in the first place?" Ahmed asked.

They are getting on my nerves. I guess I really can't keep it hidden for long.

"It's nothing serious. Think about it this way, if they beat up that guy that day then the next day it could've been someone else and...they just keep on attacking whoever they want?" I said hoping they'd believe me.

"Bullshit" the three of them said at the same time.

Damn it.

"You don't give a shit about anyone other than us. You're so bad at showing your feelings Athena. What you just said makes no sense." Sam said so confidently like he could read me open like a book.

"Fine. I did it because- because-..." I didn't know what to say. Or maybe...I was afraid to say it.

"I just felt like helping that guy okay? I don't know what else to say." I honestly said.

"No way...you like him?" Shawn asked his eyes getting wider as the realization hit him.

"No I don't. I don't even know him." I immediately declined.

"That's what everyone says at first." Sam added.

I can't believe these guys.

"Alright, at least you told us. That's a good start. Here's my advice though, we don't mind having another person with us" Ahmed said.

Are they really thinking I want that guy?

"You guys are sick" I said annoyingly before leaving.

Since when does helping others means so much? I didn't think too much about it. They like to tease me anyway.

***

There is just no way. Why is he here...again?

I came to the library an hour earlier before the get-together with my friends because my math teacher hates me for some reason.

And, that guy is here again?

Why is he always here? Not like I care but seriously...why?

Hold on...if it bothers me that much, I should just ask him. Right, I can do that. It's not like I am scared or anything.
