..Keeping My Bestfreind's Heart.. (Lucky Aces) Book 1: For The Love Of AC

Part 48: Hurt, Scheme and Lies!

AC's POV

I'm humming a song while walking fast heading to the exit..Lucky is waiting for me there..I look at my watch..Its already 5:45..I made my walk faster.

I am near when a group of student which if I'm not mistaken are grade 8 approaches me.

"Yeah?"

"Lucky asked us if we could tell you that you can find him at the rooftop"

"Is that so?" I was thinking if he's pulling me for another surprise.

"We'll go ahead AC"

"Yeah, thank you"

I walked my way to the rooftop. My Lucky is really full of surprises. I continue humming a sound going there with a tought in mind.

But when I get there...like the first time I saw them, I froze to where I'm standing, my body is involuntarily shaking...right before my eyes is the scene that ripping my heart out. I wish I didn't witness what I just saw now. Margareth is hugging Lucky tight, I'm expecting him to shove Margaret away like he always did, but instead he hug her tighter. That's the clue, I pushes my feet to went down stair.

Lucky seems not oblivious by my presence because I'm at his back and engrossed with Margareth. Before I could sob heavily, I run fast..I'm running to the exit.

I'm already out in the campus when I decided to walk slowly. My mind went blank, I couldn't think straight. My tears are like having a marathon, they keep on pushing out of my eyes. I wipe up my tears. Then a familiar car stops in front of me. I didn't hear any news about him lately, I guess after I sincerely talk to him.

Brace move out in the car.

"AC"

When I saw him, I couldn't contain my emotions anymore, I'm hurt...so hurt. I hug him and rested my face on his chest and cried.

"Shhh..it's okay I'm here"

I just cried my heart out for quite a moment. He then headed me to his car.

"I'm sure you didn't want to go home yet"

I nodded. I notice my phone keep ringing. I took it out in my bag and looked at the screen. After seeing his name in my phone screen, my tears are falling again. So I switched the power off. I can't talk to him with the state of mind I have right now.

I don't want to think about him even just for a moment. He said he wouldn't make me cry, but what he's doing right now is exactly opposite of what he promised.

Brace esqueez my hands "I'm here..you can count on me"

I just give him a weak smile.

He stop the car in a certain café parlor, I read that their specialty are homemade ice-cream.

"Someone told me that ice cream is the best remedy after crying"

"Brace thank you"

"Don't mention it, it's my pleasure, good thing I pass at your school, I'm about to fetched my sister but I just  texted her to ride a cab"

"You shouldn't have done it"

"Nah..your still the most important to me than anybody else"

"How could you still say that things after I hurt you? I know I did" I bow my head down, how can he still say those words after all?

"When you love, you will eventually get hurt, and when I learned to love you, I ready my self to get hurt too.

I don't know what to say, it's just too much for me to digest. Here's a man who also promise me love, but I choose the person I love. Yes, I love Lucky and I also told myself I should be ready to get hurt, but right now the pain seems unbearable. I love Lucky, to the point that I'm ready to forgive him whatever shortcomings he may commit. I dismiss my doubt when I saw Lucky and Margareth in the mall few days back.. they're like dating, and now they're hugging tight, it seems that they don't want to let go with each other, is it possible?? They're cheating behind my back? Does Lucky really Love me?? That question filled up my mind.
