The Crush

Chapter 2

SAMANTHA P.O.V.

Its been two weeks and still I haven't talked to Seb. He's ignoring me from two weeks and now it was enough. Can't he be a little mature and just talk to me? I'll make sure to talk to him today no matter what.

Stella was suffering from flu so she took a leave for a week. I hope she gets better soon. She is doing a lot better now. Whenever Seb was around her now  she doesn't flinch like she did earlier.

As I walked towards my class I looked at my watch and noticed that I was half an hour early. I guess I'll just be sitting there alone.

When I entered the class, I saw Seb standing near the door looking at his phone and typing furiously.
He's very scary when he's angry but I'm not afraid of him and I'll definitely grab this opportunity to talk to him.

"Sebastian I need to talk to you right now!! Why the hell have you been ignoring me for the past two weeks, you coward asshole!" I shouted at him.
He looked at me shocked probably thinking 'how the hell can she talk to me like that?' but who cares what he thinks.
I walked closer to him and slapped him hard.
"That's for hurting my best friend and breaking her heart" I again raised my hand to slap him but he was quick and grabbed my hands in his large hands looking angry at me.
"Don't." he warned me and slowly left my hand.
Who the hell does he think he is? I again slapped him on the another side of his cheek. My hand was throbbing as if I threw a punch on iron but it was worth it.
He closed his eyes for a moment and when he again opened them, his eyes seemed darker and his face red. I don't know if it was from the slap or from anger but now I was hella afraid.
I backed away from him but he was fast, he pulled me towards him and grabbed both my hands in his hand behind my back
"I warned you didn't I? Now what do you think I should do?" he asked me and closed the very little distance between us.
Being so close to my crush made my hormones go in rage. I couldn't say anything so he spoke again " Samantha you are my friend and I don't want to hurt you. You are the only one who slapped me twice and is getting away with it. Stella and my break up is none of your concern so stay the hell out of it before I do something."
"Obviously it is my damn business. U hurted Stella which means u hurted me. She's my best friend Seb, atleast tell me why you did it. You call me your friend but you can't tell me one damn reason? Why?"

"Please Sammy let's not talk about this. She told me Jay is mad and crazy that's why I broke up with her. Is it so hard to believe?" He asked me. His voice broke a little while speaking. It was like he was hurt himself but still trying to look perfect here.
I'm so damn confused now.

"Yes Seb, it is that hard to believe. You both were perfect together so what happened suddenly and don't give me that shitty reason because it's not the truth." I again tried to ask him.

He leaves my hand and immediately I kept my hand on his cheek gently.
"Seb I care for you and for Stella both. How can you expect me to be calm. What if any girl would broke Sean's heart for a silly reason. Wouldn't you do anything? Please don't lie to me. I can see you're hurting. Please." I told him calmly.
His eyes showed too many emotions but I was unable to read any of them.

I can't see him in so much pain. He was just always so cocky and full of attitude but now I could only see a broken man. It was hurting me to see him like that and I missed the times when he used to tease me.

I waited for him to say something but he just kept quiet looking deep into my eyes.
I sighed and decided to give him some space. I could clearly see him hurting so I'll not bother him anymore.
"Its ok Sebastian. You don't have to tell me now if you are not ready. I respect your space and I just want you to know that I'll always be here if you want to talk" I smiled at him.

He smiled back at me and hugged me tightly. I was shocked. We've never hugged each other before and now we were doing it in such circumstances.
I was happy to know that he felt that I understood him.
I could feel my body getting all sorts of electric shocks and if I didn't keep my distance away from him then I'll know my already developed feelings would develop more.
'Yes, I have keep to distance from him' I thought.

"Thank you Samantha for understanding me. Its time for the class to get started. Let's just forget what happened here" he thanked me while releasing me.

Children started to enter the class and take their seats and I took mine as Sebastian took his. Soon the teacher came and started the class.

After school I went to meet Stella to see how she was doing. She was alone at her house most of the time as her parents were always out for work.
I unlocked the door and went inside. We both had a duplicate key of each other's house.
She was eating soup while using her phone. When she heard the door close she looked up at me and smiled.
I smiled back and hugged her.
"Hey.How are you feeling? Do you need anything?" I asked her.
"Hey, take a break girl. I'm fine. I missed you."
"I missed you too. How was your day?"
"Boring as fuck. I'm tired of eating soup. I want some fries and burger" she whined.
I laughed at her childish behaviour.
"Anyways how was your day? Did something happen today or was it boring like everyday?" She questioned me.
Should I tell her about what happened between Sebastian and me? She'll be hurt if I told her that I confronted Seb even after ske told me not to.

"No! It was hella boring. Nothing happened today. Yale tried to make a conversation today but I just ignored him" I spoke to her feeling guilty for lying to her but the last part was true.
"Bitch move!" She grinned at me and then started talking about other things.

I knew lying to her would be the biggest mistake of my life and I already feel guilty for having a crush on Sebastian. I can't afford to loose her.
