unexpected love. // 𝘦𝘭𝘮𝘢𝘹 & 𝘣𝘺𝘭𝘦𝘳

I love you. || Chapter 3.

Max's POV

When I woke up, I was in a familiar room. I knew it was the nurse's office at first shot. I am just like a frequent customer here due to all the bullying that falls on me. All of a sudden, I realized that someone was with me this whole time. It was Eleven. Why would she accompany me? Mike would be furious if he knew about his girlfriend being with a disgusting bisexual girl right now.

I immediately got up from the bed but then I accidentally woke the sleepyhead that was beside me.

"Max.. you're awake.. How do you feel?" Eleven asked while rubbing her eyes sleepily.

"I feel better now. Sorry for accidentally waking you up." I replied and patted the brunette's head and she smiled.

"But wouldn't Mike be furious if he knew you were here?" I asked and stared at Eleven's sleep half-awake chocolatey brown eyes.

"Nah. Today we'll skip school. I wanna bring you on a field trip." Eleven replied and this time, she is fully awakened.

"Field trip?" I asked curiously.

"Yeah! Come on, let's get up and get prepared then we'll leave the school compound." Eleven exclaimed and pulled me up from the resting bed.

"What if we get into trouble?" I asked worriedly.

"Nothing will happen, don't worry. Even if we were to get into trouble, at least we're together, right? We'll go crazy together." Eleven replied and held on to my hands tightly and joyfully.

"Crazy together." I said with a smile, then followed Eleven out of the nurse's office.

We had to go through some obstacles, especially the fences due to teachers and guards roaming around the school compound when it's only six in the morning.

"Come on! My car is right there!" Eleven exclaimed excitedly and held on to my hands tightly as we ran towards her car and went inside.

We took a few deep breaths before Eleven started her car but within these few seconds, I felt butterflies fluttering around my stomach as I looked into her brown eyes that could give me the feeling of falling deep into the woods, unescapable.

Why do I feel like we have already gone through so much together, when Eleven only just destroyed my favorite painting about three days ago? I don't know what this feeling is. I've never felt this way for anyone before, especially not for someone who had been making my life a living hell. I'm totally going crazy.

* a few hours later *
Eleven's POV

I have been driving for about two hours now. Well, the place we're heading is quite a distance. I think we may still need at least thirty minutes to reach the destination.

"Hey Max-" Before I completed my sentence, I realized the red headed ginger sitting beside me was already asleep so I quickly stopped the car and got out of the car and got a comfy blanket from the back of the back and covered Max's asleep self just in case she gets cold. I don't know why I care so much about her either. Well I'll just ignore this feeling and continue driving.

I lowered down the volume of the song playing in the car and the air conditioner level in the car, glanced at Max twice before continue driving.

When driving, suddenly a message popped up on my phone. It was Mike again.

🤷‍♀️ Mickey Mouse Mikey 🤡

"El, where are you? Why aren't you in class?"

"Oh my god. What are you? A stalker?"

"Hey I'm just being caring okay?"

"I'm outside. Happy?"
