Just because I've reached 4.49k reads and 171 votes *insert over exaggerrated crying* here's ANOTHA CHAPTAH peeps!?
And just because I love you, char!😂 And everyone is like 'where's Grayson?' or 'why is he only talking to Ethan'.. Peeps he will arrive if I make him arrive, and he will arrive at the 'right place at the right time' or is it 'wrong place at the wrong time'? We'll see😉That's purely sarcasm^^you'll see what I mean😉
"Why do you keep on holding my hand?" I ask, irately.
"I might get lost." Ethan answered in a sing-song voice with a goofy smile, "Do you mind?" He asked, raising an eyebrow still with that smile and I roll my eyes. Of course I don't mind, I don't mind the heat coming from your hands and flowing into mine, I don't mind the thought of my hand that fits in yours like a puzzle piece and most of all I don't mind Taylor Swift --ehem, Sparks Fly.
Cheesy?
Well... that's how I want my pizza, cheesy and with lots of pineapple. Speaking of pineapples, do you know the new dance craze called 'pen pineapple apple pen', oh how fast the time change and more people become popular, so fast. Adjective that every day couldn't do, to fly by 'faster'. Why do people hate on mondays and wish for it to just not exist?, didn't they think that if Monday doesn't exist the day after Sunday will be tuesday, and then what.. they will hate on tuesday as well? why don't we just hate the whole weekdays all in all? By the way, Halloween is coming soon I'm thinking about dressing up as --
"Earth to Andrea, Earth to Andrea." I snapped out of my thoughts and focus on the grinning Ethan in front of me, "What're you thinking about? me?" I didn't even notice that we stopped walking and was now inside the gym.
"I was thinking about who I will dress up as, in Halloween. Any ideas?"
"My girlfriend." He answered chuckling.
"Yeah... that's pretty scary." I mumbled and he laughed. We turn our different ways into the lockers and changed into the red short and white tee. Yup, that's our gym attire.
Sooner than later the teacher announced that were gonna play the never ending, over-played, very cliché,
Drum roll please,
Dodge ball.
Don't you just love dodge ball? Aiming at people you hate? throwing balls at each other? dodging the flying balls? Taking down the bitches? running? laughing? excessive sweating? tiring?
Nah.
But I do love the idea of throwing balls to those who needs to grow some, like you can 'literally' throw the ball in their face in case they missed having even one.
Anyways, everyone must play. Equal number of boys and girls on each team, so it's not boys against girls because that totally sucked. Eventhough girls can do everything that guys can, guys can still wipe you out of the court if they want to so I'd rather team up with guys.
Since there's only thirty students in one class, and we are divided in two groups of fifteen. With Ethan standing casually beside me, the war started.
The gymnasium turned into a battlefield.
You think I'm kidding? I won't do such thing.
Students occupied the whole space, hiding behind the drums that littered around the gym and behind the tall one while holding balls. Hahahaha!😂 Balls.
Me?
Well, I'm hiding behind some tall blonde dude. When I say tall, I meant tall af. Based on my measurement, If we both stood straight I'll only reach half of his chest. So.. he's a good shield, now all I need is ammo.
A ball rolled to my foot and I picked it up, still hiding behind the blonde dude back to back. I threw the ball upwards, not caring where it will go and I resisted the urge to cover my ears acting as if the ball is a grenade.
Well I would like to think as if it's a nuclear bomb--
My head snapped to my right when a ball hit my knee and once again, I resisted the urge to fake an injury so I would be excused in this game.
"What?" I mouthed at Ethan who is standing a bit farther. He pointed at the ball so I picked it up and threw it back at him lamely. He rolled his eyes and picked up the ball throwing it back at me and made a motion of throwing.
"Oh..." I picked up the ball and look at the opposing team, picking a target. I pulled my right arm back and released the ball, hitting a lanky guy with glasses whose standing at the far corner.
I cheered on my spot ignoring his protest 'I'm already out'.
"YASSSSSS!" I threw both my fists up, I turned to Ethan who's grinning in amusement and asked loudly, "Did you see that?!" And he nodded, still with that smile. I turned to the tall blonde dude and tapped his shoulder, "Did you see that?" I asked enthusiastically.
"See what?" He asked me confused and I gaped at him. He. Did. Not. See. My. Winning. Shot.
"I hit an enemy." I said and he just looked at me bewildered.
"How many?"
I raised my chin proudly and answered, "One."
"I hit many."
"I didn't ask. I only ask if you saw what I did."
"Well, I didn't." He answered, standing on his full height in front of me. I do not feel threatened at all.
"And why not?"
"Because, while you are so busy aiming for one.. I'm busy taking down the rest." You. Arrogant. Piece. Of--
"What's this about?" I heard a loud voice ask. I just noticed the other students gathering around us and the teacher approached, "Miss Victoria, what is this about?"
All my school life, all I wanted is to avoid drama. And, I'm doing a good job on that, aye?
I opened and closed my mouth, contemplating on what to say. I can't just say 'he is so arrogant and won't appreciate my effort, my win, my sweat, my blood', yeah.. that isn't a great excuse. So instead, I threw my hands up acting as if I'm frustrated and backed up slowly, still with that scowl on my face.
"You know what.." I started, all eyes on me, Ethan who is standing in front looked at me with amusement, "..I'm hungry!" I exclaimed and walked out through the double doors of the gym, hearing the laughter of my fellow classmates.
That, ladies and gentleman, is how you do a dramatic exit.
So I went to the cafeteria still wearing my gym attire under Ethan's white Nike jacket that he lend me earlier. I'm just too lazy to walk back to the gym, open my locker, strip, wear my normal clothes, close my locker, exit the gym, and walk back to the cafeteria. See? that's a lot of work and I'm sooo not ready for that.
"Ready to go home?" Ethan asked, sitting beside me in the cafeteria.
"Home?"
"Yeah.. Weren't you listening to the announcement?" Nope, I wasn't.
"Oh the announcement.." I trailed off.
"Yeah, the announcement..." Ethan trailed off as well waiting for me to continue.
"What about it?"
"You didn't listen, did you?"
"I did!" I countered.
"Then what is the announcement about?" He mocked.
"I forgot." I shrugged and he laughed.
"C'mon. Let's go home so you can change." He said, his tone changing.
"This is comfortable."
"Well I'm not comfortable." He argued, grabbing my hand and dragged me out of the school along with the other students.
Filler chapter.
Peace✌✌
