Promises (One Shot)

Chapter 3

I was walking to the parking area. One week had past since my first day on my new school. 

I manage to survive with the annoying bug who always try to make conversations with me. He always fails though. I always ignore him.

I didn't want to be close with him, or with anyone now. He might just leave me, alone. No one's going to stay forever. Even the people you think wouldn't leave you, just like him and my dad. They left me, without even saying goodbye, I wasn't ready. They died.

Tears fell again from my eyes before i got in to my car. I wasn't able to control them. God, I missed them so much. And I hate them for leaving me. I feel so alone. I start sobbing.

Then, before I knew it, someone's hugging me. I can't be wrong, it's him, Vann. I wasn't able to push him away, maybe because i needed that hug too. 

"I hate them! They left me... Alone. I wasn't ready..."

"Shhhh, stop crying now. You're not alone now, please stop crying Autumn." I didn't know why but his hug felt so nice. He made me face him and said, "Stop thinking that you're alone, because you're not, and please stop pushing me away. I want to be close to you because I really like you, and I'm dead serious. I know you hate me, but please give me a chance, at least to be you're friend. I can't promise to be with you all the time or forever. But I promise I will, as long as I can."

Slowly, I stopped crying, and just nodded. I can't find words to say, then he pulled me to another hug.

He offered me a ride to school, and I didn't say no. I know I can't drive rigt now.

"Tissue? May tumutulo na sipon mo oh." I just gave him a dirty look and took the tissue. I looked to the mirror, baka totoo nga. He chuckled when he saw what I did.

We got to our school fast. He opened the door on my side before I could.

"No need to be gentleman" I said in a cold tone.

He just smiled and held my hand. I took my hand away from his and said "Who told you, you could do that?!" 

"Tss. Ang sungit talaga." he said. Then he took my bag.

"Hep, let me do this okay? Wag ka na umgangal. Tara na, baka malate pa tayo" he said before I could protest. Fine, I'll let him do that.

We were walking to the corridor and i could notice several eyes looking at us, mostly girls, some even glared at me.

"Vann, why are they looking like that?" I asked Vann. 

"OMG! She called her Vann." "And he just let her" stupid girls, I could her them, duh! weirdos.

"Because you are with their crush." this guy is too conceited.

"Yeah right, even boys like you huh?" i  answered him.

Well, I can't really blame those girls, this guy really had the looks, and I heard he's quite popular, maybe because he's also one of the basketball players of the university.

He's 6'' tall, his hair is dark brown, as well as his eyes, his nose and his lips are perfect. He really looks hot even with that uniform he's wearing.

"Like what you see? You're staring, and don't try to deny it." i just rolled my eyes, i felt my cheeks blushed. What the hell am I doing?

I walked passed by him and took my seat. I heard him chuckled as he sat beside me. 

 I don't know if this is a good thing, but I want to trust him.
