Falling For The One I Hate, My Mate

Chapter 9

*Skylar's POV*

"Seth!!!", someone called out.

We both turned around and saw two guys grinning at Seth and me. They looked similar, they both had pale skin and all like some twins but...

One was a brunette while the other was blonde. The brunette guy had caremel coloured eyes while the blonde had pale blue eyes, like Seth. But both had the same lips, and a bit crooked nose but it looked good on them for some reason I dint understand and they even had the same shape of eyebrows.

Maybe they are un identical twins?

"Hey Eric, hey Ed", Seth greeted them with their rough, manly hugs.

They both looked at me and offered me their hands and said together "Hello beautiful..".

I chuckled when I realised that I had to choose between whose hand to shake first.

The brunette pushed the blonde guys hand away and came closer and took my hand and said, "Hi, I'm Ericsson Clarke, you can call me Eric," he said with a wink, "and this dumb guy is my twin Edward Clarke", he said with a disgusting look on his face and I chuckled.

Edward looked at his brother in anger and suddenly he pushed him away and there they were fighting like 5 year old kids, hitting eachother really hard. But they dint seem to get hurt.

Seth and I laughed and walked off from there going to the group of tall guys. Edward and Ericsson came jogging behind us, laughing at some joke that they shared after their stupid fight.

The group of 4 guys with dark hair and one girl with pure black hair with purple streaks coming through them in the centre turned around and whistled and started checking me out and then laughed playfully and the girl smiled sweetly at me and I returned her one.

Seth said, "Hey guys, this is Skylar, my best friend who's back from London. And Sky, this is Tanner, Steve, Nathan, Riley, and Nikolina."

I looked at all and smiled sweetly. I was not really interested in knowing them. I was just thinking about how many notes I had prepared and stuff. I was acting a bit nerdy here.

I was not an open person. I was just close to Aliana in London and here it was Seth. I was not fond of knowing more people, unless I find them sweet and different.

We all sat in one of the round tables in the garden area. Each table had a big shade above it. I wondered off in other thoughts as the rest of them talked and laughed at jokes.

I dint pay attention to what they were saying. I took out my small art book and started drawing graffiti stuff in it.

Seth got two chicken sandwiches for me and himself. I quitely ate and continued drawing. After I filled up the whole page all of them suddenly became quite and I looked up.

They were all looking at the art work I had made with in 10 minutes. The girl who had purple eyes and purple streaks in her black hair, tied in a high pony, stared at the drawing.

Yeah, her name's Nikolina, long name.. I remembered.

She looked up at me and grabbed the small book from me and all the guys came around her and started seeing through the drawings and kept smiling and talking about the different sketching and grafitti work I had done.

"Wow Skylar you're amazing! I so love this! You're just amazing! I love artists! We should hang out some day, when these dumb guys are not around us.. it'd be fun!", she said moving her head vigorously and moving her perfectly straight hair all around. I just smiled at her and nodded.

She seemed to be nice and a very jolly kinda person. She was funny, she kept shaking her head, hitting the people beside her with the pointy ends of her hair.

They returned the book and continued talking about stuff. And I wondered off.

When it was time, I returned back to the classroom. Seth said that he'd join me as soon as he'd complete some urgent work that he had got. I dint bother to ask him about it and just nodded.

I sat on my seat. Two blonde girls in front of me turned around together and smiled at me.

"Hey I'm Pamelia! And this is Natalie.. Are you new to this place or are you from here it self?", the girl with wavy blond hair tied in a low pony said with a big smile on her face.

She had hazel coloured eyes and bright pink fat lips. She looked cute and jolly. And she had a really different accent.

"Hi I'm Skylar.", I said with a sweet smile amused by the blonde. Uh, I mean Pamelia, she sounds sweet, I thought and continued,  "No, I'm not from here. I've come from London."

"Oooh.. nice to meet you! We've come from Greece........", she stopped and studied me for a minute and I just looked at her weirdly. Then she said, "Is the hot guy beside you your boyfriend?"

"Uhh noooo.. he's just my best buddy.", I said with a chuckle. I realised she had a crush on him by the big smile and look she gave at her friend, Natalie.

"Don't mind her please, she's just crazy at times.", Natalie said with a smile and I just chuckled and smiled back.

Natalie looked very calm and composed. She had very light brown eyes with a little tint of yellow inside. She had long blonde hair, till her hip like me, which she had left open.

Then Natalie asked me about the notes she had noticed me writing in the morning and I handed over my book to her.

She looked at it and asked me if she could keep it with her for a while to copy down some important points from it, which I agreed without hesitation.

Mom will be happy if she finds out that there are studious people around me at school... like Natalie, I thought.

The rest of the day passed by quickly and we reached home by 4:30 pm. We reached half an hour later because of the traffic we got on the way back.

Seth and me were tired and decided to just rest.

After dinner I went upstairs to my room. It was 8:30 pm. I checked my phone and saw a message in it.

From: Ryland (I had saved his number)

HEY BABY BOO. HOPE YOU GOT THE LATEST GOSSIP. I'M SURE THE DUMB BLONDE HAS TOLD YOU ABOUT ME ASKING HER OUT AND SHIT. HA! I'LL LEAVE HER NOW SINCE I'VE GOT WHATEVER I WANTED.

LOVE :* ;)

I kept staring at the message. I couldn't believe it. He cannot do that to my best friend.

What dint he want from her? What had he got now that he would leave her? . . omg . . did he sleep with her and leave her ?

I AM GOING TO KILL THAT BASTARD if he had plans to break her heart.

I thought he loves me and what he has done.. Why does a part of me still want him. I want to know what he has got. That's it.

I messaged him,

To: Ryland

WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER? AND WHAT DID YOU GET FROM HER THAT YOU WANNA LEAVE HER NOW?

I got an instant reply from him,

From: Ryland

AWW BOO DON'T WORRY SHE'LL GET OVER ME SOON. YOU KNOW I'VE ALWAYS WANTED YOU, SO YOU CAN GUESS WHAT INFO I HAVE GOT FROM HER RIGHT ? ;)

WILL BE COMING FOR YOU AS SOON AS I HAVE COMPLETED MY WORK HERE.

LOVE YOU, GOOD NIGHT :* ;)

I hate that guy. Gosh, his guts! He still loved me.. I still love him but I hate him at the same time. But I know he has changed.. but I am scared to give him another chance. And I really don't feel like giving him another chance because of his plans to hurt Ali now.

I fell asleep thinking about it all. I dint know what to tell Aliana. I dint know if I should even tell her anything. He's going to hurt her, I'll call her tomorrow morning and tell her everything before he breaks her heart.
