Ribbed

Moon.

After a long night yesterday, I went to school nervously. I can't help myself to wonder how Christian will treat me, will he be like before? As if nothing happened last night? As if those text weren't sent?? I decided to shrug it off and pull myself together. "I'm used to it anyway" I told myself facing the mirror. I wore a white t-shirt with a black dress pants with some low converse, my hair that flowed below my chest and some light make-up. I went downstairs and greeted my dad a good morning and quickly grabbed the toast that was still in the toaster and run towards the door. "Yah! YVES AMARA LOCKWOOD!! BREAD ISN'T DONE!" My dad screamed "Love you, Dad!" I barely see my parents home, their job requires them to be overseas most of the time. Just like today, they're leaving to go to Europe for some important meeting and will be back after a week or two.

As I arrive at the school, I was greeted by Dianne and David. Shucks! Them already?? My heart wasn't prepared to see Christian! I composed myself and sucked it up, I saw David walk to me and behind him was Christian. "Looking nice Lockwood!" David teased. "Hey! Matt David wagner! Since when have your eyes recognize beauty?" I fired back. "Hey! Atleast you look like a human today, Moon!" Christian said walking straight to his class. SHUCKS! He just called me t-Moon! Freaking Moon! Could this week just get any better??? I too entered my first period which was chemistry. I was in my 3rd year of college studying medicine, along with Christian and Nicole. I sat beside Nicole and felt a slight nodge on my shoulder, "hows the Kier thing?" She said teasingly. She said it so loud that the whole class probably heard her, I checked if Christian looked but again, he didn't even bother to react. He was busy talking to Tristan. "It was good, not until SOMEONE, interrupted it" I intentionally put emphasis on the someone so that Christian would hear it and to my satisfaction he replied saying "I told you Moon, it's your job" he said making nicole confused and shocked. "GIRL WHAT WAS THAT?!? Are you?" She questioned me. "Firstly, no we're not dating. Second, I have no idea" I answered while I fix my things, getting ready for class. "Okayy, I'm so telling this to the others"

"NO! Don't, please" I said. "Why? Isn't this good news?" "Is there something wrong?" Nicole asked. "No, I just don't want to rush things. Let it flow by itself" I don't want to assume things between me and Christian. Because, the moment I open myself again and assume things I would just end up getting hurt and dismissed. Up to this day, I can't understand Christian and what's going on in his mind. He's just not the type of person who opens up easily, I remember always forcing him to tell me what's wrong whenever he's stress or going through something. He's a virgo, an introvert so what do I expect. He's just so unpredictable that it's both exciting and frustrating! After first and second period was lunch and as we were going to sit, Kier held my wrist and said "you told me you will treat me, why not treat me today?" I was honestly taken aback from what he did. Why did he have to say it in front of everyone? I had my chance to sit in-front of Christian! "Uh, yea-yeah. You didn't have to say it in-front of  everyone though" i said, scratching my neck and laughing uncomfortably. "Lets go, pick whatever you want" I said as I give him a tray. "Hmm, I'm done. Lets sit there" kier said. "Bu-but everyone is sitting over there, why do we have to sit alone?" I said. I get Kier's action towards me, don't get me wrong Kier is a very nice guy but I don't want to use him just so I can get over Christian.

We ended up sitting at the table separately which made everyone confused. Dianne looked at me and mouthed "what is happening" and I replied with "help me!" I saw her whisper to Christian and it made me curious to what Dianne said to him as he immediately looked at us and said "Guys! I think it's to hot here, why don't we sit somewhere else?" He looked at monique and seemed to send a signal as his eyebrows were going up. "Ye-yeah! Oh look! There's kier and yve, let's sit there!" They all started to move to our table which made kier almost chocked on his drink. I was laughing at what the three did and didn't even notice that Christian was already sitting beside me. "You're welcome, Moon" he whispered to me. God! That sent shivers down my spine. "Well, well it seems like all he needs was a rival to act" jay said. Dianne gave him the side eye and he immediately shut up, oh! Dianne and jay are a couple.
