I'm Falling.. For Him

1

"Ugh, Loser Class again." I visibly rolled my eyes. Honestly, I felt like my team could do a little better, if I were to be honest. But Courtney just had to throw the challenge because of that sneaky, handsome.. err— totally ignorant jerkface— Alejandro. He's trying to get under my teams skin, and since Courtney and Duncan are over, that jerk Alejandro decided it was a good chance to try and swoon Courtney. And what-do-you-know, it worked. And if I want to win, I have to really step up my game. If I am not careful, I could fall for him, too. But unlike his other victims, I am actually smart. Smart enough to know that Alejandro is bad news.

I glanced over to see Courtney looking dreamingly at Alejandro. I quickly scrunched my face up in disgust. I wanted to smack that dirty little smirk right off his face so badly. But I managed to maintain my distance.

I glanced over at Alejandro, which he saw, making that an opportunity for him to wink at me. I then glared at him, and quickly turned my head in the opposite direction. From the corner of my eye, I could see him smirking. I felt my face heat up.

That's.. not good. I hoped that I wasn't blushing. Well, it was pretty hot in here, so.. maybe that was it. It had to be. Yeah, that was definitely it.

"Oh, Alejandro.." Courtney swooned, being gently held by Alejandro. I rolled my eyes. Please, she should have something better to do than.. swoon over Jerk-jandro!

"Yes, mi hermosa?" Alejandro said, softly. I silently stared into his mesmerizing, green eyes. I quickly snapped out of my sudden daze. Ugh, what the hell is wrong with me?! I cannot be serious.

"I'm going to go use the bathroom now, if you don't mind." Courtney said, as he released his grip on her.

"Of course." Alejandro excused her, watching her as she went into the bathroom.

I stared him down, trying to figure out what he was up to.

Suddenly, my eyes widened as he made his way over to where I was sitting. I quickly looked up at him.

"Uhm, what are you doing over here?!" I tried to get away from him, but he sat next to me, making me unable to get away from him. Ugh, that jerk.. why was he even over here, anyways? Shouldn't Courtney be out of the bathroom soon, or whatever?

"I am simply just admiring your gorgeous, grey eyes, mi amor." He then followed it up with, "They are as radiant as the moon as it shines in the night sky." My face flushed. I quickly looked the other way to avoid seeing him and his.. ugly smirk!

"..S-Shut it!" I scowled. Then I realized how utterly vulnerable I just sounded, and I mentally punched myself. I tried to cover it up, "Ugh, whatever.. just leave me alone!"

Then he just nodded, and silently got up and walked away. Just in time for Courtney to step back out and meet up with him again. Too bad she doesn't know that she's getting played. Again.

I ran to the confessional, and quickly shut the door behind me.

I pressed my hand to my cheek. My cheek was.. warm. But it couldn't just be because it was hot in here, it can't. But if it wasn't that, then the only possible option were to be that..

That I'm falling in love.
