Forbidden Love

Chapter 10

It had been a few days since I spoke to Nathaniel or saw him in school, he texted me midday yesterday cancelling the tutoring session for the day because he was busy. After I replied, he didn't message me back, which I admit did annoy me a little, but whatever?

 I also saw Matty, but he walked past me like I didn't exist, I was okay with that. Me and Cassie had met up in Regents park, which was outside of a school, so the park was filled with little children.

"Something weird happened to me the other day." I shrug. I still haven't told her about it.

"What's that?" Cassie asks taking a spoonful of her frozen yogurt, and placing it in her mouth

I bite my lips awkwardly, not knowing how to say it. "Well, Matty came and sat near me," I sigh, Cassie almost shrieks. "Ergh, he was horrible, he wanted me to come over to his house, his parents where home, and he wanted to 'bake my cookies'," I quote cringing.

She puts down her spoon, and frowns looking slightly confused. "Really? I always thought he respected girls" she shrugs. "Wow he really ruined his perfect image for me." She said in a disappointed tone. "He's disgusting." She spits, her facial expression was vivid, she almost didn't believe me. Who could blame her?

I shrug. "So are you going to see Jacob?" I ask, changing the subject.

"Yep at half four." She replies dumping the rest of her frozen yogurt in the garbage bin.

I laugh. "Babe it's 4:35". I say looking at my watch.

Her eyes turn wide. "What?! Sorry Asi, but I have to go." She cries as she picks up her bag and fast walks out the park.

A few seconds after Cassie disappeared through in turnings, A Voice whistled slightly near me. "Yo."

I don't look up, instead I walk the same way Cassie went.

"Aasia?" The voice yells out. I stop and turn around.

"What?" I reply. I recognised the boy from the football team, he was tall and built just like the rest of them, his ragged brown hair scattered everywhere.

He chuckles. "I assume you already know who I am? So I can skip the introducing part?" He smiles, but not a genuine smile or a smirk, a smile that sent shivers down my spine.

"No, I don't know who you are, and if you would excuse me, I need to get going." I reply harshly, looking away.

"What, no come on?" He reaches his hand out, trying to hold my arm, but I move my arm to my sides.

"I know this nice place, we can go, and we'll be alone. You'll have fun, trust me." He winks. I didn't know what to say. I didn't know what was happening, the second time this week? I felt like this was some type of joke.

"No one will know, no one will hear us from there." He smirks.

I laugh. I keep on laughing, but not in a humorous way, but a cold stiff laugh. "Leave me alone. Jerk." I spit, whist I walk away.

"Fine. You'd wish you have come to me, you'll regret this. Things would have been easier if you came to me." He replies back coldly but with a smile on his face.

I ignored him, I ignored is comment, but the words kept repeating in my mind, I don't know what kind of sick joke they were playing, but it wasn't nice. I felt weary, and slightly scared. I pick up my phone and text the only person who made me feel safe, other than my family but I didn't want to involve them

ME: "Nate you want to hang out?"

The message says it has been read, a few seconds after I messaged him. I wait for him to reply, a few minutes later he does.
