Charlotte and I was chilling in a cafe nearby school. She was on her phone since this morning. It was peculiar to watched her doing something she barely does. It's like she's hiding something from me. Whenever I asked her what's she doing she would get all panicky and defensive. We had been dating for 4 months. We would go counting stars every night,and eat ice cream after school though, even if I had plans after school. I love talking to her more than anything. She can talk about herself for hours and I still didn't mind. It was quite an exquisite sight, really.
The bell on the front door of the cafe rung when a customer came in.But,this time, once the bell rung, Charlotte's head snapped up to look at who's entering. I swear she almost broke her neck due to the fastness of her head moving.It was a guy. She shook her head and returned her gaze to her phone. All of a suddenshe gave the guy a second glance.
I don't know why, but it kind of hurt my feelings. Nothing hurts more than seeing your lover giving someone else a second look. I know I sounded like an overprotective boyfriend, 'm always afraid of Charlotte leaving me because I know, I'm not the good looking one around, or the romantic one, or the best smile.I'm afraid that eventually, she'll find someone else. Or get tired of my insecurities,mood swings and all.
What happened next makes my blood boil and my heart ounds iin my chest faster. The guy turned his gaze to Charlotte and smiles upon seeing her. Apparently, they were in an intense gaze and smiling like fools without me noticing. I literally can her my heart crashing. I looked around, maybe the other people who was sitting nearby can hear it too? But that'snot important. The thing I'm actually hoping is I hoped it shattered loud enough for the girl who's sitting infront of me to noticed it.
