ACT: A Complicated Tale

Chapter 4

Dead end

"That's stupid." Sarah pouted.
"Did he really say that?"

Lily nodded, giggling.

"I don't know why he's doing this..." I laced my hand through my hair.

"I think that maybe he's testing you." Lily added.

Sarah agreed "He probably is, like what if this is like that submissive test for the dominant kind of thing."
"BDSM you mean! Gosh Sarah this isn't fifty shades of Grey!" Lily gasped.

"Seems like it to me, that guy is pretty much likes to play mind games with Erika... I mean what guy does that!" Sarah shot back.

"Submissive..." I said silently.

No... He's not like that. I know he's not. Damn. I thought

My alarm ran on my phone to leave for the drama course.

"I have to go girls." I waved "Bye!"

• • •

I walked around. Just to find out I was lost!

"Stage performance area... Where the hell is it!" I shouted at myself.

"Erika? Erika! Is that you?" I noticed that voice.

"Eric Carter..." I said while I froze.

"I should've known a person like you would be here. "He said with sarcasm.

I hate you, go away. I thought while I rolled my eyes

Eric Carter was my one and only arch nemesis on stage. He had hazel like gold hair. Eyes to die for... a light green cream colour growing from the gold brown around his pupil .

A perfect body structure.
An attractive face. A confident smile.

It was only last year he was teasing me, calling me names, making my life a misery. All the girls wanted him. He was so good looking after all, he was way up in his sports and academics, and my question was what was he doing here?

"So you won't greet me." He frowned. "Your so ignorant Erika."

"Your so stubborn, Eric" I shot back.

"Oh, so its going to be like that." He grinned. "Oh you'll be punished soon."

You freak. I cringed as the idea came to me.

"Wow, like I'm scared of you!" I laughed.

Dierdrey suddenly stormed toward me.

"What are you doing Erika? drama course is by the stage."
She looked at the both of us.

"Keep up with this guy magnet thing and I'll put you out of the house."

Did she just say I was a guy magnet in front of Eric? She's making this worse already. I thought while I was in complete hesitation.

"I-I just got lost, so I -"

"-save it!" Dierdrey exclaimed to stop me from talking.
" What will Robert say about you Eric, be a gentleman for once. Escort her. Now!" Dierdrey ordered.

"What ever I'll just-"

"Just what huh, Eric, why are you being such a kid. " Robert walked in out of nowhere."Don't insult Dierdrey, we are not in highschool got it?"

Eric nodded infuriated.

He grabbed my arm. "Let's go."
He pulled me along while hurting my arm as he squeezed tighter.
"Would you mind, please take your hands off!" I shouted.

He let go. "Seems like you really hate it when I touch you."

"Yeah, what else, there's more!"

He grabbed my arm again while we walked into the theatre entrance. He walked faster forward to the stage.
"Stop it! Your hurting-"

We fell onto the floor as we tripped over the steps nearby the seating area of couched in seats. I was on top of him. His hands on my waste.

"Ouch." He smirked on the floor. "You know I saved you right, how are you this clumsy?"

"You tripped too!" I shouted

"Only because you tripped." He squirmed. "You really like to be on top don't you..."

My face went boiling red. "No, I hate you and I want you to stay away from me!"
I got off of him.

"Huh, I'll always come around"

I just hate him. But I didn't know why I blushed. Any body would understand. It's because he's just so sexy but besides that I still Hate him. I couldn't care less about his abs and his hair and his awesome smile.

"Stop playing around and get to work." Our professional director/drama teacher Mr Lawson ordered.

And let the games begin. I thought. Because there was Noway I would let Eric get in the way. Not this time.

"Our production will be based on highschool. So I will be giving scripts and all of you will audition." Mr Lawson looked at the two of us.

"Its compulsory."

No. Way. Now I have to relive it!
I can't do this. This is so stupid.

"Miss Helix." He looked at me sharply. " You will start first thing from tomorrow.

"Okay sir..." I answered nervously.
Oh lord give me strength. I thought while I read the script.

This was not right. It just seemed like everything was happening to me.
