Luke's POV :
It's Thurday, and a magnificent opportunity to burn Rosie up again. I entered the class at 7.30 and saw Rosie already present there, reading a book.
I couldn't do anything else than to chuckle at that moment."Right on time today!" I said looking at her with an amused face and what i got in return was an eye roll. I giggled slightly and took a seat two benches away from her. She looked stressed and upset but her face lightened up as soon as she saw Alicia, May and Ammy. Maybe she was missing her swarm of friends.
Our Math class started and as usual I was the one giving most of the answers while she was the one who embroiled everybody with her confusing questions. Gosh, she was pathetic at Math. After our Math class it was the PE lesson. Time to act Luke.
I reached the ground with all other boys before her and convinced the coach and everybody else to play football. As she entered the ground she saw everybody playing football and got curious to join us.
She said something to the coach to which he pointed at me and exclaimed my name."Luke, come here and help Rosie adjust in your team. From now she will play in your team whenever football will be played."
A good shot it was.
"Okay. She can be the goal keeper." I conveyed giving Rosie a sarcastic smile. I knew this was not what she wanted because she wanted play instead of standing infront of the net and waiting for the ball to come. She immediately opposed to it"But Sir this is-" I cut her off "That's all i can do for a beginner."
The coach nodded his head in agreement.Burned. Rosie Stuart burned again. I felt bad for her sometimes but i couldn't do anything about it because i tried to be nice to her but she herself seemed to call my dark side.
She proceeded towards the net and stood there. It looked like she had zero interest in playing as a goal keeper and that was clear from the way she let the other team hit all their goals and for the first time my team lost the match.
She will pay for that now! I continued to never let her play in the team as a player and made her stand as goalkeeper. She could never practice football in PE lesson because eventually, i began kicking her out if the game completely.
I continued doing the same tricks to satirise her for the entire two years. Kicking her out of the football team, mentioning her name in the students who bothered me the most in class, complaining about her to Mr Blake for the being the most talkative girl in class when Alicia deserved this title and doing every single thing which would burn her up was a part of my usual routine. She hated me. And i knew that.
I never even cared about what she thought about me for those two years. In her third year in our school, means when she was 14 and i was 15, all I did was talk to Alicia to make her jealous. I wanted her to feel what she has missed. But it looked like she was effect less. She just kept on hating me more and more everyday.
Time passed and it was the last month of the last year of our middle school. It felt like it was yestarday when I joined Fortitude and was given the title of a Headboy.
Rosie, May, Alicia and Amy were planning to join some other high school in the main city. Far away from where we were now. Alicia told this to me. I didn't know why i was sad. Was i going to miss being with Alicia or impersonating tricks on Rosie? There is not even a slightest chance that I will miss Rosie. No matter bothering her was fun but her presence meant nothing to me. But i didn't want her to hold grudges inside her heart while she moved on in life. I don't want her to tell people that she met a Luke who bothered her a lot till her middle school ended. Well, what else could i expect her to think. But i thought maybe the things could be settled. I decided to talk to her about it, at least once. I proceeded towards her usual bench under the tree where she was reading her book. Why does she never stop looking cute.
"Rosie?"Rosies's POV :
The last year and last month of the middle school. I was way too much excited to join high school next year. Next year was going to be really good, i would turn 15, i would join high school and i would get rid of that Luke Bryan. He antagonised me the entire middle school.I was sitting under the same tree on the bench where i sat on my first day in that school. What a day it was, i spent my whole break with my books. And now i was about to leave that place but i was taking three precious gifts with me, my best friends.
I was lost in imagining things i would do with Alicia, May and Ammy next year when suddenly i heard someone calling my name from the back. What did he need now?
So Luke doesn't want Rosie to hold grudges against him but wasn't he the one exasperating her for her attitude towards him. Wasn't Rosie should be the one apologising for everything.
