Had To Be You

Is that a yes? | Ch: 11

Making him stop and look back at his books.

It's the first class where I'm not focused on what the teacher's saying. My mind is just replaying the things that I said and then his reaction to it.

Did he not like it? Was he not expecting that? His face didn't look disappointed though. At Least that's what I would like to hope.

The class is over. I keep looking at my book even though nothing enters my mind other than the thought of facing Liam.

Shit, I can't even look at him. What if he doesn't think the same way? Maybe I just freaked him out. What if he is already dating someone else?

Hff. I gather enough courage to turn my head and look at him just to find.

He isn't there.

A sigh passes my lips. Great.

I managed to take all the notes properly in our last class. This new Geography teacher is such a pain in the ass. He joined Swinden High a few days back. It's his first class with us. And he was successfully able to intimidate a lot of students in the class.

Leo and Chloe both drag me to go to the football ground during lunch.

I didn't argue about it. A part of me wants to go to the football ground and look at him, and the other just wants to indulge myself in a pit of sorrow of how he ghosted me after I told him that he's hot.

We reach the ground and I avoid looking at the way where the guys are playing. We climb up the first two bleachers to reach the third one.

"Mr. Hyde was such a headache. " Leo's voice catches my attention.

"Isn't he? ." I'm glad that both these guys agree with me on this one.

"I know. He just has something weird about him. It's like he doesn't want us to like him. It's like he wants to control us with fear." says Leo all dramatically, forming a fist in the air and narrowing his eyes.

"Yeah. Leo's so right. I noticed that too." Chloe agrees.

"I mean he was staring at me with such a strange look" Leo saying that made me feel kinda creeped out.

Chloe shoves the sandwich inside her mouth "What are you guys doing tonight?" asks Chloe.

"Nah. Nothing?"

"You?" I notice Chloe's expecting an answer from me.

"Uh... I don't know I will probably just be finishing Mr. Hyde's assignments. I don't wanna be on his hit list. "

Chloe and Leo start talking about something to which I wasn't paying much attention.

Leo's voice restores my attention.

"Here comes Mr. Kade." Again. In his excited-dramatic voice. Leo sometimes reminds me of Cameron from 'Modern Family'. I loved that guy.

I find Liam approaching us. My heart starts racing. Woh, it's like the butterflies inside my stomach are going insane.

There's a sudden feeling of coldness in my throat. God I just wish he doesn't say anything bad.

Chloe would whip his ass, I don't want his ass whipped. Also I don't want my heart whipped by him. Maybe I should just say I didn't mean anything I said before. Will that make it okay?

After he reaches the bleachers he starts climbing the first two. He has little dirt on his fore arms,  from all the practice. My my those fore arms are just... woohff! those veins are so prominent.
