Rumours can change people, sometimes their lives take 360° turn from how it was. Andres, a straight A student whose life was what everyone would say perfect, one night at a high school summer party changed it forever.
Nicoli, the bad boy is Andres'...
Song for the chapter: I keep texting you by Moira & Claire
Andres' POV:
Seb and me went back to my room and made so many random tiktoks, although they were too cute for my liking. We made a super cute one on If we ever broke up song, I wonder where'd he even found such songs xd.
After making tiktoks for 1 hour we thought about watching my favourite TV show, you guessed it right, Keeping Up With The Kardashians again.
We both watched another 2 episodes and while I was engrossed in the show, I felt the need to pee but my cousin Seb was already drowsy so I thought of going by myself quickly, I shook him to check if he was asleep and I was positive. I didn't had any major injuries so I could walk on my own but that was my lil secret, otherwise my fam won't let me stay at home.
When I was came back from the toilet, I closed the door a bit too hard due to which Seb woke up and stared at me with sleepy eyes.
"HEY, how can you walk on your own? " he asked shocked.
I quickly tried to act as if I was about to fall and whined in pain "Aah! Seb I can't walk on my own but you fell asleep and it was emergency, so I had to come in my own. Aah! " I replied whimpering.
"Bro I saw you walking properly with my own eyes. " He said in a flash.
"Bro I think you're dreaming, now please come and help me". Again I said whining.
"Yea yea I'm coming ." he came to help me get to the bed. Before he could interrogate me any further I told him I was feeling sleepy and slept.
We woke up kinda late in the morning, it was already 10:30 a.m. so my mom called us for breakfast, she made french toast for us, we both enjoyed our breakfast so much, but I could feel Seb's strong gaze on me. I felt kinda uncomfortable under his gaze. After breakfast and bathing, mum told us she was going out for a community meeting and will be back after lunch so we can order a takeout.
It was already 12 in the afternoon when I got a call from Edvin, the call rang but I didn't pick up.
"Why aren't you picking up his call?" Seb questioned.
The door bell rang and I asked him to peek through the window and see if Edvin was waiting outside. He unwillingly did it and nodded.
"Seb please go to the door and tell him to come later because I'm asleep." I pleaded.
"Why do I have to do this? And why do you not want to meet him? After all he's one of your best friends. What is going on Andres? Your behaviour is weird today, I can sense something fishy!" Seb questioned.
"NO Seb, nothing's fishy I promise, just please go and tell him. Please." I pleaded again.
"Okay I will tell him but I'm not that foolish to believe you, you first have to promise that you're gonna tell me what's going on." He stated.
"Okay okay I will tell you bro." I replied. He went to the door and told Edvin to come back later. I heaved a sigh of relief.
"So now are you gonna spill what's up with you? Why is your face as long as a fiddle?" Seb asked me again.
I exhaled a breath that I was holding and told him all about what happened at the party, the group chat, the fake accident and stuff. After telling him, I felt as if some weight was taken off my shoulders.
"OMG, what the heck Andres, so much happened with you and you didn't even bother to tell me? Do you not consider me close enough to tell all these to me?" He said morosely.
"No Seb, it isn't like that at all. I haven't told anyone about it." I replied.
"But I'm not just anyone, you can tell me anything you know that right." Seb said.
"Yea of course I know." I replied again.
He asked me something which made me flustered, "But do you seriously like Nicoli?"
I was at loss of words.
He asked again, "Andres, do you like him?"
I took a pause for a few seconds and timidly answered, "I don't know maybe yes."
"Um okay even if you do, Nicoli and others have no fucking right to do what they did to you! I'm not gonna leave this fucking Nicoli like this, I'm gonna beat the living shit out of him for doing all this." Seb said fuming in anger.
"Seb please calm down, there's no need to get angry about all this, it's my fault too that I couldn't stand up to them, I'm too faint hearted for this." I replied.
"But don't you have anyone on your coaching institute who is open minded and can support you, because it's only you who can stand up against them, it'll not make a great impact on them if I took a stand for you, it'll make you look more of a coward." Seb said.
" I know right, but I just need some time to muster up courage, and to answer your other question, there's someone who is open minded, kind and wants to support me." I said lowly.
"Who is he? tell me." Seb asked curiously.
"Actually it's a she, I mean there's a girl, her name is Audrey and she told me that I can talk to her if I'm comfortable. She said hit me up on Instagram." I replied meekly.
"Oh wow , you have someone on your side who's ready to stand up for you, so why don't you talk to her?" He asked.
"I don't wanna bother her by dragging her into my private matters. What if they'll shittalk about her too?" I replied.
"Andres trust me if she didn't want to be involved in all this, she would've never come to you in the first place. So I guess it's time for you to open up and do some friendships." He adviced.
After all this talk it was already lunch time so we had lunch, Seb hugged me bye and went back to his house because according to him it was time for me to "Introspect".
After lunch I played video games so that I could get my mind off from what he said but the problem is I wasn't able to do that, my mind continuosly thought about what he said about Audrey and I should try messaging her so ultimately followed my subconscious mind and found my phone on the nightstand.
I opened instagram and closed it , typing and deleting debating whether I should or not. Ultimately I did type a "hi".
A/n: In case y'all are wondering who Sebestian is: Edvin Ryding
