Brother's Best Friend (prt. 2)

Ella's POV

Today was the day, Richard and I were going to present our project to our class. But my mind wasn't focused on that. 

All I could think about was Richard. 

We had grown closer over the week, and I was starting to fall for him. He wasn't what I thought he was. 

I kept looking at the classroom door, waiting for Richard to come in before class started. As if he sensed I was thinking about him, he comes into the room, a little out of breath, and takes the seat beside me. 

"Sorry I'm late, I forgot something in my car." He said, putting his backpack on the back of the chair. "Don't worry!" I said, giving him a reassuring smile, which he returned. 

"Okay, class. We're going to get started on our presentations." Mrs. Jacobson started. "Our first presentation is going to be... Alisha and Jake."

Richard's POV 

As our classmates were presenting their projects, I kept looking at Ella. She was looking so beautiful. Over the past week, all I can think about is her. I think I'm in love with her.

She had me so entranced, that I didn't realize Mrs. Jacobson called on me and Ella to present.

I quickly snapped out of it and stood up making my way to the front o the classroom with Ella following me close behind.

During the presentation, I would make eye contact with Ella, winking subtly, which made her blush and look down.

So fucking cute.

After we finished, the class clapped and we sat back down in our seats. Ella walked down the aisle first, which gave me a great view of her ass, which started to make me hot.

Everyone had given their presentations for the day and Mrs. Jacobson had given us some time down time before the bell rang. I turned to look at Ella, "You did great with the project." I said to her, smiling. She returned the gesture before replying, "So did you."

We just stared at each other before we were interrupted by the bell. We looked away, blushing from the moment we shared. 

Ella's POV

Both me and Richard walked out of class at the same time. We started walking in opposite directions. When I stopped by my locker, I heard someone clear their throat from behind me. I closed my door and was met with Maya's smirk.

"What?"

"Don't act all innocent with Miss Thang. I saw the way you and Richard were looking at each other." Maya said, her smirk growing wider.

I rolled my eyes, "So what?" "Soooo, just start dating already!!" She said, practically yelling. I shushed her quickly, trying to save myself from embarrassment. "Look, it's not that big of a deal. It's whatever." I shrugged.

Even though I knew that I was in love with him, I didn't want to give Maya the satisfaction of that.

"Sureeee," Maya replies, seeing right through my act. "Well, anyways, I wanted to ask if you wanted to go to the beach party the seniors are holding tonight. It's gonna be sooooo fun!" I started to get a bit nervous, I had never really been to any parties. I didn't know what to expect.

"I'm not sure, Maya. You know that's not really my scene," I said with exasperation. "Come onnnn, Ella! You're not gonna make me go by myself, are you? Besides, Richard is going," she hinted, her smirk returning to her face. I breathed loudly, "Fine!!! I'll go." Maya jumped up and down with excitement. "Okay, I'll come to your house after I get ready, and we can go together." I agreed and we walked to lunch.
