Another High School Cliche

CHAPTER 18 (POV:VED)

Just 3 more days for the big fest.

Rather than being excited im sad 

This fun is soon going to get over

It's heartbreaking but I'm still happy cause I met really good people in the process

I love them all and I hope we stay the same after everything.

During the last few days I was too busy since I was the captain and had no time to be with them I was with Anaya the whole time working

I know that pissed Tania a lot but I had no other option than to do that.

And maybe it will help her get over me

So I let it be.

Recess time

I was too tired to walk to them 

So I just sat at the stairs beside the auditorium.

Being a captain was sure very cool and fun but at the same time it was hard

Work like puppets and have no appreciation 

It only affects my studies

But it is something I always wanted so I will work hard for my school.

"Cookies?" Tania asked as she handed me a box full of chocolate cookies.

"For me? I am not going to share it with anyone ok" I said expecting her to say no 

But she said yes 

She made it for me to cheer up it seems

"U looked too tired so I thought this will cheer u up a bit," she said 

I smiled like an idiot.

I looked around to see if anyone was beside us

But I chose an amazing spot- It was near the junior wing building.

I laid my head on her shoulder

She immediately jumped up flustered

I pulled her back to sit and placed my head on her shoulders again

"Ahh pls for a while I'm too tired," I said whining

She was shocked but sympathized with me 

"It's okay" she said

"What is?" I asked 

"Idk whatever you are frowning about it will be okay" she replied smiling.

This girl makes me crazy 

She is so dumb and I like it 

She is so ugly yet so beautiful at the same time.

I love her and hate her at the same time.

"U love me?" I asked her out of nowhere as I raised my head to look at her.

She was shocked at first but replied to me anyways

"Yes

 but I know u don't and I expect nothing from u

 it's just a crush

 and I will be over it soon 

So u don't have to be worried 

And don't u dare tease me 

U r not that special." 

She replied at a breath 

And tried running away 

I grabbed her hand immediately

"Why?" I asked 

She looked at me confusingly

"Why do u not expect anything in return?" I continued 

She was very much flustered

I had no idea what got into me at that moment 

It was like just some moments ago I wanted her to get over me but now I do not want to lose her both as a friend and a women

I like her ….. I like her a lot and now I don't want her to get over me.

"I like you too" 

I couldn't dare to look at her 

I'm pretty sure she was stunned too

"Could u pls leave my hand?" She asked politely 

How stupid!! Why was I holding her hand till now? 

"Ummm sorry," I said awkwardly as I loosened my grip 

She ran! 

No, she disappeared

She was that fast

Well I expected it 

Why did i freakin say that?? 

Ugh why am I behaving like Reyansh

Pov: Natania

I ran to Ruhi and sat beside her 

I was panting 

"U okay?" She asked me 

I was still panting 

Now everyone was staring at me for an answer 

I was so stunned I had no idea what was going on 

"Did u see a ghost?" Erica asked me

"I knew this school was haunted" Shaan said

"He likes me" 

" Who?" Ruhi asked confused 

"He told u right?" Reyansh asked me 

"You knew?" 

"Of course Tania, im his best friend"

By now everyone understood the situation 

"Why did u not tell me?" Ruhi said while hitting him lightly 

"Chill Tania Chill," Erica said rubbing my back.

"I never wanted this!"

"I can't be in a relationship!!"
