Lucy's POV
"Hello? " Lucas deep husky voice greets me
" hey... Uhmn" I answer nervously
What in heaven am I doing? How could I ask him out on a date. Was it a date?
"... So a friend of mine invited me to this karaoke thing this weekend and-- "
" I'll pick you up at seven" a voice startles me from behind
Turning to see Lucas standing with a smile plaster across his face, his hair lightly blowing in his face. Removing my phone from my ears I hold my head down.
He moves his hand to my chin lifting my head to meet his eyes, he holds my chin as he looks into my eyes for moments.
"Smile" he whispers softly then pursing his lips. The side of his lips turn up as an unthinkable smile resigns on my face. He leans closer not loosing contact with my eyes.
For a moment there I thought he was going to kiss me. I feel like a child standing before her supposed crush. Lucas takes a step backward moving into his pocket for his phone.
He had done that a couple of times during our meetings.
"I'll see you at seven?" he asks after raising his eyes from his phone
I smile in agreement "Yea, seven it is"
Lucas walks towards the direction of the campus gates leaving me standing in the heavy breeze.
Walking the dry, smooth grass towards a palm tree to which I have become fund of, my thoughts are forced towards nathan. Based on what my mother had illustrated in my mine, Nathan is simply come one who despises me for reasons probably unknown to himself.
I had learned to live with that and with others not being fund of me but for some reasons nathan looks familiar. Like someone I've met before but I'm yet to come up with the place I've seen him.
A figure leans against the palm tree I had been walking to. The figure was pounding against the tree in rage, shouting as his eyes change colour.
Taking cautious steps closer toward the tree, Jake comes into view. Bloody hands from pounding on the tree and his face fuming with range.
"uhmn... " I begin searching for any means of escape
" Lucy" he stops as soon as his eyes meets mine
"you okay? " I ask feeling more concern now than scared
He continues to look at me rage leaving his eyes and sadness appearing. He slides his back down on till he sits with his back against the tree. I move closer to him and bend down beside him.
" No... I'm not" he whispers
I was never one to comfort someone in these instances. I would simply stare not knowing what to do.
"Want to take about it? "
He looks back up at me before speaking" They where there... kissing"
Puzzled I ask him "who was there kissing?"
"Natalie and nathan" he answers anger returning in his eyes
"Oh"
Why would he feel this way, it was clear that nathan and Natalie would be kissing At some point in time. He should have obviously learned to live with that.
"She should be mine, mine alone" he says more to himself than to me
Taking a moment to decide on the correct words to say to him
"Jake" I say In order to get him to be looking at me
"They are together and what your doing... "
" Is wrong" he finishes for me
Sadness in his eyes again
"Yeah" I say feeling his pain
"I love her" he confesses breaking my heart with his every word
"Yeah, I know" it was evident that he loves her. The way he looks at her with joy when she walks towards him or how sadness flashes through his eyes when she sits with nathan.
After moments of silence, allowing Jake to fully calm down. I break the silence "you better get cleaned up "
He looks at me then nods and stands to his feet. "karaoke tonight?" he asks me
Surprised I smile at him "Definitely"
After we reach back to the campus view he turns to be and holds his head down "thanks" he whispers
"I didn't really do anything"
"you where there" he says looking up at me
I smile at his kindness "Anytime" Atleast nathan still had a few good friend... Why do I keep mentioning that idiot.
"See you tonight" he says while walking out of sight.
Who knows maybe tonight won't be that bad after all.
Sorry for taking so long to update, I'll try doing it again soon☺☺
