CHAPTER 26: How We Are: By Desire Pt2 ✨

Toby POV:

"I know I'm extremely overprotective of you, it's because I have a reason sunshine, your precious and too sweet for your own good. Others might take advantage of that. So at the end of the day I'm always going to be protect you. And I'm telling you now, he doesn't see you as just a friend". I froze for a second that can be true. "Well how do you even know that, you barely know him Xavi". I backed up out of his embrace. " I know this because he gives you this look. Like he wants you to be he's, a look of hunger, greed, want, and temptation, it's something I..." I looked at him wanting him to continue he's sentence but he never did. I put my head down. "Come on sunshine open your eyes, you can't tell
Me ur not picking up the signs he definitely is feeling you, and wants you to be his". I didn't want to admit it but there has been attestations before, but I guess I just chose to ignore it.

" I mean there has been a couple signs, but I always took that as him being silly and playful". I hate that right now everything is making sense now. I really look dumb right now, especially in front of Xavi."Ok look sunshine, Im not going to tell you what to do, you can go out with goofy. But promise you'll be safe and text me before and after y'all hang out, got it''. I Nodding my head, and grabbed Xavi hand again. "ok Xavi I will, love you, I gotta actually go now. Saying this because we practically spent half of the time of my free period talking about this. Plus I have to return this book back to the library before last period". As I was about to leave, I realized something, which prompt me to turn around. I walked back from the door and held my arms out stretched, doing the grabby hands motion. Titling my head to the side, I waiting for his warm embrace. In which he did, he pulled me into his arms, and his hands made his way to my back, and even further to cuff my legs with both hands. He lifted me up, in the air, I quickly placed my arms around his neck, snuggling in it more. "I love you to sunshine".  He whispered the words in my ears so softly, making a shiver go down my spine.

My stomach was doing flips, my mind was going into overdrive, and my heart was beating so fast. I closed my eyes as his words lingered in my mind. I slowly opened my eyes, finding him staring at me with fondness in his eyes. Xavier does what he always does me, he kisses my forehead, then moves down to my cheeks, my nose, and smiles at me showing me he's perfectly white teeth, and amazing smile.I put my head back down on his shoulder, and we stayed like that for a while. What exactly is going on with me, more specifically us. "Umm Xavi I really gotta go now, can you put me down" I was still in his arms, with my head on his chest. He gently put me down on the floor, I kissed his cheek, and made my way out the room. I closed the door quietly and leaned my head against the lockers, trying to grasp what is happening. I then checked the time, I had roughly around 15 min to bring this to the library which was in the east wing, on the other side of the building. I scurried over there, with the thought of Xavier on my mind.

Alex POV:

I could feel my face starting to blush and my ears turning red. He grabbed my hand and we made are way to his bed. Dre sat down and pulled me closer to him, and he patted his lap for me to sit. I straddled his lap and was now laying on his chest as he caress my back , and rubbed his hands up and Down on my sides. " Why you keep playing with me, and stringing on my feelings". He looked at my lips then my eyes, all while licking his lips. " And I know you want me to, but my question is why play in her face like that. I'm trying to get in that little pretty head of yours Alex" I was now twiddling with my fingers as he talked, I wanted to speak, but I just couldn't. With Dre it just seems right, but with Devin I could also see something happening. I'm so confused on what I want right now, I'm being pulled by an thread on both ends. His hand caresed my check again, bringing me out of my thoughts.

" You like her don't you".

"Do you even like her" My eyes widened I wasn't expecting him to be so blunt about it. I was stunned for a bit. I can't keep staying silent. "I.....i think so, I mean I can see something there with her, but I feel this thing between us that I can't shake, and honestly I don't want to, I want it. I'm just a mess right now". Dre looked away for a sec, then placed his hands back on my face. "See what I mean I ask you that question and suddenly your a stuttering mess. Now let me ask you again, do you really like her, or are you just bored Alex". He took in a deep breath, and I remained quite. You know what I think, I think that attention you weren't getting from me you had to get it elsewhere, and you latched on to Devin cuz she's was right in front of you.  And trust me Alex I don't want come off as being an asshole, but I'mma still voice my opinion. And if I'm wrong, and you do possess true feelings for her to, I want you to know this. Alex I like you a lot, and I'm not about to be competing and being led on, Imma need you to choose, you can't be on me one minute, and the next you on her. Shit not sitting well with me".
