Twisted Love

Chapter 12

I groan as I exit my car, my bag in hand, and start off for the entrance of the building in front of me. Of course, paradise is not forever- the weekend would eventually come to an end and I would have to come back to school. As I enter I see Asia and she runs up to me and hugs me. I hug her back before she speaks.

"You haven't read my messages!" She complains.

Oops!

"Oh, siento! I was busy!" I apologize.

"Busy doing what?" She probes.

My face heats up as she asks that question.

I open my mouth to speak, not sure of what to say. "I-um-"

"I follow Cristiano on instagram. Everyone does," she says, a smirk playing on her lips.

"I-"

"Are you guys dating?" She asks excitedly.

I am about to clarify that Cris and I are nothing but friends, until I remember that we aren't anymore. We're more than that now, and just thinking about it makes my heart flutter.

"Yeah, actually," I declare and smile proudly.

She almost trips over her own feet. "Really! Omg! I swear I'm so jealous right now! But I can only pray you'll be able to handle all the jealous bitches that will come your way."

"What do you mean?" I look at her confused.

"Well, let's just say Cristiano hasn't dated a single girl since he's come here. You're the first- the only. That has got to mean something," she states.

Wow. Could Cristiano make me feel any more special?

I blush, "Wow. I don't know what to say."

"Just take a breather, " she smiles and pats me on the back as we head to our accounts class together.

As I am entering the classroom, I spot Cristiano a few meters away, talking to his friends; the only one I recognise being Marcelo.

I place my bag on my seat beside Asia and tell her to watch it, that I'll be back. I head out the door and hide behind a small cluster of people and watch Cristiano. I am not being a creepy stalker, I just want to admire him from afar- he is very attractive.

Okay, maybe I am being a little creep....little.

He seems to be saying goodbye to his friends as he smiles his eye crinkling smile- probably from a joke- followed by a handshake with each of his friends. He then begins walking off in the opposite direction of me.

I run and jump up onto his back, shouting his name whilst wrapping my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck. I laugh hysterically from my actions, he otherwise is caught a little off guard and almost falls.

"Luna!!" He begins laughing his amazing laugh when regaining his balance.

I giggle and plaster a kiss onto his right cheek, "Hey Cris."

"Would you stand up now so I can admire your beautiful face?" He says and from my view, I think he pouts.

I laugh lightly as I hop off his back and he quickly turns around to englulf me in a surprise hug. He picks me up and spins me around, not caring that my legs are hitting people. I could care less in this moment.

I cannot help but to laugh uncontrollably as I plead for him to put me down. After a few more spins, he places me on my feet, a firm arm on my shoulder to keep me steady. His slightly deep, raspy laughter rumbles throughout the hallway over everyone else's chatter.
