Art Class Bets Part 2- S.S

I would be lying if I say that I was not excited a little more than I usually am to go to my art class today. I have definitely developed a crush on Sebastian and it was terrifying me because every time I liked someone they always never liked me and I was too afraid to really be more forward. But, with Sebastian I have never been as confident as I was.

I smile as I walk into class and I notice Diana there saving me a seat. I rush over to her and grin. "What's up with you? You said you had something to say to me about something from the last week." She asked. "Well, I do. I like someone." I say. "Right!" She scoffs. I still keep looking at her. "You're serious?" She asks. "Yeah. I am deadly serious. I even kissed him." I whispered the last part. "YOU WHAT?" she exclaims. Everyone looks at us. "You kissed him?" She whispers. "Yeah. It was magical alright. He told me what kind of girl I am. Which was accurate to the fault and then he just says, I also know you want to kiss me. So me being me, I just say goodnight and walk off. But, as I am about open the door to my house he pulls me back and it happens. The most magical moment of my life. The most gorgeous person in the world stands there and proves to me he is a fictional book boyfriend who is just for me to have the perfect enemies to lovers relationship with." "Wow. You finally like someone." "Tell me about it." I say smiling. "You can't stop smiling. And you haven't even started dating him." she says. "Well, actually..." "I will kill you if have already began dating him." She says. "No. Well I made a bet with him cause he was acting all cocky and I also agreed to a bet to possibly continue the conversation and I lost." "How can you lose?" she asks. "It was depressing alright but anyways, I went ahead and tried to escape the date but, he caught up with me and he took me on the date. He literally drives a motorcycle." "He what?" She asks dumbfounded. "Drives a motorcycle, wears a leather jacket, has the perfect colour eyes and his hair is styled beautifully, it is also longer than the other guys." "NO way. Now I don't believe you." She says. "I am not. Besides if you look behind you Duke is walking into class." She spins around so fast I think she might have gotten a whiplash and then quickly turns back.

"Why don't you ask him out?" I ask. "Because." "Because what? He likes you. Our whole group knows it." "But, he is like that with everyone." She whines. "Suit yourself. One day you will regret not asking him out." I say. Class begins and I don't see Sebastian. But, I constantly hear loud giggles from the back of the classroom. I am so annoyed with that sound. "Why can't they stop?" I ask Diana annoyed. "Maybe because the most gorgeous, good looking, harry styles beauty challenger is cracking jokes." "What?" I ask as I turn around. My heart drops at the sight. Sebastian is sitting at the back with a group of girls and holding Noelle's hand. The most pretty girl in class as stated by everyone. She leans in and laughs by resting her head on Sebastian's hand. He looks down and smiles at her. When he looks up he meets my eye. I look away and focus on my work as much as I can.

"Who is that?" Diana asks. "Sebastian." I whisper out. "Wait what?" She asks clearly shocked and worried. "That guy is horrible." she says and I think it is only to perk me up. "It sucks alright. Let's just not talk about it or him, or how he seemed so interested in me turns out to be a playboy play." 

The next two weeks Sebastian still flirts with Noelle. Diana keeps trying to distract me from the whole scene of him hanging out around the guys but it hurts. He seemed so perfect and interested and now he is just. "The cutest, good looking guy who could totally ask me out and I'll say yes." Every single girl in class he has talked to except for Diana and I. 

I come in for class and Diana has a grin on her face. I frown a little cause it seems suspicious. I sit down next to her. I look around the class room and see Sebastian hanging out with Noelle yet again. I roll my eyes. I can't lie but, I am jealous. "There is my best friend."  Diana says. "What's up?" I ask as I raise an eyebrow at her. "Can't I call you my best friend?" "You can but not with that tone and smile. It's creepy." I say. "Today we have a group project." She says. "Cool. I will asks sir to put us on the same team if that's what you want." I say. "The teams were selected last class." She says. "Okay. Cool. Are we on the same team?" I ask. "Yes. We are but, it's just that someone else is also on our team." She says gulping a little. "Who Duke? Is that why you are acting weird?" She asks. "Yes. And also someone else." "Is it Zuri?" I ask. "Hi there Diana." I hear an all too familiar voice and see Sebastian sit down on the other side of Diana with a smile on his face and an arm around her shoulder. I look at every thing all at once. I don't what to feel. Shocked, angry, confused. "Sebastian?" I ask her. "Yes. He is on our team yay! Plus you know how good he is class." "Yeah the second best after me." I say. "Agree to disagree." "Agree to shut the hell up Sebastian." I glare at him before looking at Diana. 

"I walked in ten minutes ago. You had ten minutes to tell me my nemesis was going to be sitting with us in our team." I say. "I am sorry. I know you hate him so I was trying to ease into it." Diana says. "You don't ease into it. You say Allora, Sebastian is on our team. And I go to the teacher and suggest someone better than him." I say. "I am sorry. You can still go do that?" She suggests. "I will!" I walk up to the sir and ask him to change Sebastian and all I get is can't be done. AS I am walking back to my seat he says, "No change of group partners will happen. The ones you choose will be your partner today too." He says. I glare at her. "Were you the group leader?" "Yes?" "And you had the option to choose and you chose him?" I ask gritting my teeth as I glare at Sebastian. "Yeah. I was the first one she chose." I look at her completely betrayed. She just avoids my eyes. I clench my jaw as I stare ahead. 

"You guys have to create a character based on the element fire." The sir instructed out team. We began discussing and aside my hatred for Sebastian to do well on the project. "For the eyes can I draw yours Diana?" Sebastian asked with a smile, "If you could pose it would be wonderful." I rolled my eyes. That also hasn't stopped. Sebastian's constant flirting with Diana. And in all honesty I am annoyed and Duke? Oh he is fuming. He has been holding his pencil so tightly his knuckles are white and there is smoke coming out of his ears.
"We can draw normal eyes." Duke said. "Why don't you think her eyes are beautiful?" Sebastian asks. "It doesn't matter you are wasting precious time we can use to think." He grits out. "Well I want our character to look as perfect and beautiful as Diana so sorry for trying to do better here." He says. "We can create the most perfect and beautiful face from our imagination too." Duke argues. "Okay whatever." Sebastian says. Duke shut him up. Oh my God. I have never appreciated Duke as much as I do now. Usually I just dislike him for playing with Diana's emotion.
We finish our drawing early thanks to my quick ability to sketch and Diana's quick colouring.

"So Diana what are you doing after class?" Sebastian starts again. "Nothing why?" She asks looking at me for her help. I am angry at her so I am pouting and frowning and not helping her. "Just you know to hang out after. Maybe like a date?" My head turns so fast I think I may have gotten whiplash. Duke is clenching his jaw and looks like he wants to deck Sebastian.
"I mean I think I have always thought you looked the best in our class." Sebastian says and he glances at me smirking. I narrow my eyes are him.
"I... I... Uhmmm.. I don't know." Diana answers. Duke gets up suddenly and walks out of the classroom. "Go after him." I tell her. "What?" She asks. "He is angry and upset about something that clearly has something to do with you so go!" "Are you sure?"she asks me. "Diana I will punch you and break up or friendship if you don't go." I stare at her unblinking to prove I am being serious. She walks off in the direction Duke went.

"I bet you, Duke will confirm he was jealous of me and end up confessing. What do you say? Wanna take that bet?" Sebastian leans in and whispers. He is now sitting right next to me. I simply glared at him. "I am never going to make a bet with you. All bets between you and I are over." I say as I get up and walk in the same direction Duke and Diana walked. I hide behind a wall as I see then talking.
"Are you okay Duke? What happened back there?" Diana asked him.
"What happened back there? Oh I don't know the girl I liked told a total douchebag that she doesn't know if she wants to go out on a date with him! You want to know how I feel. I am angry, upset, fucking jealous and pissed because I thought you like me back too!" "I do." Diana says.
"What?" Duke asks "I do like you. I thought you don't like me. So I never made a move even though I know Allora told me multiple times to do that. I like you." Diana says confidently. I smile proudly.
Duke is so overjoyed he pulls her in for a kiss. We were outside near the staircase so it was fine.

"Called it." I hear Sebastian velvety voice whisper in my ear as he stands right behind me. I turn around and roll me eyes at him. "Good for you. Too bad I didn't make a bet so that you can be asshole." I tell him.
I look back at Diana and Duke. Diana is blushing like crazy. Oh I am so going to tease her.

"Duke can I tell you a secret?" Diana asks. "Yeah?" "Don't tell anyone though." "Okay." "Sebastian helped me make you jealous. So I was fooling and playing along." "Why?" " Because he wants to prove to Allora that he likes her." I stand still and frozen in the spot. "Why would he do that?" " Because he believes that it would have not only made you jealous for me but her jealous for him." "That is crazy." "Hey guys we have to get into the classroom." Some other student weeks out to tell us.
I avoid Sebastian's stare at I walk past him to class. I completely ignore him for the rest of the class. As soon as it is over I tell Diana I am leaving and run out.

I can't find a cab today either so I decide to walk a little further down the road so that I don't have stand at the gate and meet Sebastian again. Before I even can walk my elbow is held in place and I hear, "After all that you heard, you are just going to walk away?"
