Countdown

chapter 5

It's been three weeks since Isaac last showed up and I was still trying to get used to the school and even made a few more friends after being forced to by Blair
Things were going so good I almost forgot about Isaac, but I kinda wished he'd show up

I was on my balcony smoking, it became a tradition at this point.
Even though I liked the school, it was still boring to me, but at least there was Blair, who would talk my ear off every day. I still haven't really forgiven Bridget about rejecting blair but I was starting to understand her reasoning

I suddenly heard a ruffle outside, it was dark so i couldn't really see much, except a dark figure standing under a tree
Was that Isaac?
He started moving towards the building and begun climbing it? What was going on? Did my classmate snuck out and came back or something?
I realized the dark figure was climbing towards my balcony and moments later there he was standing in front of me, Isaac.
"Hope you didn't miss me too much" he said
"Don't worry i didn't"
"Too bad"
"Isaac, what are you doing here?"
"Came to see you, of course"
"Why?"
"I missed you" that was honestly unexpected
"Again, why?"
"That honestly hurts my feelings, i thought we had a thing going"
"You mean you sucking my neck and the next day making out with me? No we don't"
"That hurts my feelings even more"
"Good"
He sat down on the chair beside me
"Aaron"
"What"
"I honestly really like you, not as in like be my boyfriend, but as a person"
"Um" I paused before saying "you're honestly the first person who said they liked me"
He smiled and I could see that it was a genuine one
"Yeah, you're an asshole most of the time, but that's why I like you though, you're not afraid to speak up and you're honest about your feelings towards people and don't give them false hope, I admire that"
"um thanks" I didn't know what to say "it's kinda weird that those words are coming from a villain, who's a cold blooded murder and who doesn't care about anyone's life"
"You know me so well" he chuckled and i couldn't help but smile a little
"Where were you for 3 weeks straight?"
"Oh so know you wanna know?"
"Im just curious, i thought you got bored or something"
"I was on a mission and it stretched for more than i thought" he looked away "why did you think I got bored"
I shrugged "by that means, I'm assuming you still wanna get me in bed with you"
"Well, I mean yes but also no"
"Good cause it's not happening" I looked at him "what do you mean by 'yes but also no'?"
"I mean that, I feel like we should get to know each other first"
"Um, it's still a no, and we can't"
"Why cause I'm a villain?"
"Yeah"
"Are you afraid of me or the people who'll talk?"
I didn't expect that question "huh?"
"Are you afraid of me or the people who'll talk" he repeated his question
"None"
"How about this, give me four months to make you like me, if you still don't like me by then I'll leave you alone"
"And if I do we still can't date moron"
"We can, in secret"
"Its still a risk, if someone finds out we'll both be fucked"
"So you're worried about your reputation?" And then it hit me, what Bridget said, she was afraid to date Blair cause she was a girl and her reputation, and i was afraid to date Isaac cause he's a villain and my reputation as a hero would be ruined. Even though our situations were different they were still very similar. I would obviously lose more than Bridget.
"You get three months"
He smiled and put his hand out "deal"
I shook it "deal"
I had a feeling I was gonna regret this, but you'll never no
"Starting tomorrow" he said as he jumped on the balcony railing "until then try to not miss me so much"
"I don't need to try" he smiled and jumped off the balcony

Was i fucked? What would happen if i actually fell for him? What if someone find out? My head was already flooded with 'what ifs', but that was for my future self to worry about. So I just went to bed and slowly started to fall asleep.

"-ron, Aaron!" I woke up to Blair screaming in my ear for me to wake up
"What the fuck"
"She has a boyfriend" I barely had my eyes open
"Who?"
"Bridget!"
"What do you want me to do?"
She sighed "I don't know"
"Look Blair, it's time to move on"
"Ugh, it's just driving me crazy cause I don't know why she rejected me"
I patted her back "I'm sure she had a reason"
"What reason?, am I not good enough? Am i ugly? Am i stupid? Do i talk to much?"
"No, no and yes, but that probably isn't the reason"
She looked at me "I know that you know the reason"
"Blair I don't know the reason"
"Yes you do"
"Blair-"
"I know you do, so please just tell me"
"..." I didn't know if i should've told her or not, it was Bridget who was supposed to so i didn't "no, if you want to know just call bridget and make her tell you or something"
She fell back on my bed "I don't want to face her after you know"
"You can't hide from her forever, you're gonna have to face her someday, you might as well get it over with"
She sighed"yeah you're probably right"
"I know I am, now get out"
"We have school remember?"
"Oh, just wait for me outside, I'll be out in a minute"
"Ok" and with that she left the room
I got up and took way longer than one minute, obviously, then I noticed a note on my nightstand that i didn't recognize. I picked it up to see what was son it
