I Love To Hate You|Bad Bunny

26

BENITO's POV

I was still on my phone but I was just staring on it, I was spaced out.

get over it, get over her.

She's never going to like you back.

I knew it was true. She hated me and I didn't blame her.

The front door opened, pulling me out of my thoughts.

Love came in, she had a weird look on her face.

She didn't look or say anything to me she just walked up to her room.

Something went bad on that date.

Part of me was happy her date went wrong and the other part wanted to go to her to see what had happened.

Don't go.

Don't go.

Don't fucking go.

I couldn't resist it any longer. Whatever it was I was feeling, overpowered me.

I got up and went upstairs.

I walked past Natalia's room, her door was open like usual. Thank god she was asleep in there.

I walked over to where Love was staying, her door was closed.

I knocked before I came in.

She looked over and gave me a weird look.

"What the hell are you doing here?"

"It's my house."

"Yeah well I'm staying here, I'm the guest, leave."

"How was your date?"

I wasn't even going to beat around the bush. I needed to know how she was feeling, what happened on the date.

She looked at me with a surprised expression.

"You're asking me about my date?"

She held back her laugh.

"What? I can't ask you now?"

She continued to look at me with that same surprised expression.

"You really want to know how it went?"

She placed her hand over her heart and looked at me in an enduring way, obviously being sarcastic.

I knew it was a mistake to come over here. Maybe I didn't like her after all, maybe I just had a fever and this was all a nightmare.

"awe, careful, Martinez, or I might just think you like me."

I rolled my eyes at her, "yeah, I'm leaving."

"Awe, no wait."

She finally let out a laugh.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Sit down, I'll tell you all about it."

She was now over exaggerating it.

I sat down on the bed next to her and awaited her reply.

"Well for starters, we went to the movies, I know he wants something with me so I decided to give it a try but... it was so boring and I feel bad."

She let out a sigh as she turned to look over at me, "so after the date was over, I politely told him that I wasn't really interested, he said it was okay but I know he was mad."

I attentively listened to her, trying to understand everything. I know I shouldn't be happy that her date went bad but I just couldn't help it.

"I just feel like I fucked everything up, anything good that ever tries to enter my life, I always fuck it up."

My expression softened as I heard her say that last part. I didn't like that she felt that way, I wanted to reach my hand out and grab hers but I knew I shouldn't, it took everything in me to resist.

"You don't fuck everything up, Love. You can't always be so hard on yourself, you and Raúl weren't meant to be and that's okay, you didn't fuck it up."

She looked at me in surprise, she obviously wasn't expecting me to say that to her considering the only time I talk to her is to insult her.

"That was... nice of you, thank you."

I was fully expecting her to say something smart back to me but she didn't. The energy in the room changed, there was something else going on between us and we both felt it.

We looked at each other, neither of us saying a word. I wanted to kiss her, I couldn't deny it any longer. I began to lean down, I almost brought my hand down to her cheek but I quickly stopped myself. I stood up and began walking to the door.

"I should probably go to sleep, I have football practice tomorrow. Have a good night, Love"

I walked out of her room and headed to mine.

What if I didn't stop the kiss? Would she have kissed me back? Fuck, I didn't know what was happening between us, whatever it was, it would most likely not end up good.
