Masked Feelings

Chapter 62: Help

I watched as his eyes widened and his posture tensed at my words. Why did I say that? I was caught in the moment. I wanted to tell him how I felt. I knew that I was in love with the man who was standing in front of me. Whether he loves me or not, didn't not matter in that moment. I was somehow relieved. I felt more at peace with myself. I just needed him to know. Damian seemed conflicted and surprised by my words. Why was he so surprised? I inhaled then smiled.

"Don't worry. I'm not asking you to say it back. I'm not asking you to say anything about it, to be honest" I told him. I could not decipher the emotion that was present in his eyes. At times, he was so hard to understand. Just as he was about to talk, I heard someone calling my name. I turned towards the shore to see Isaac and Rose. My best friend was motioning us to get out of the water. I unwrapped myself from Damian and swam towards them. I stopped for a minute to look at Damian and i noticed that he was still standing there. "Are you coming or not?" I asked. Damian nodded once before I started swimming again. 

"I told you to look for him. Not to get in the water and have sex" I groaned at Rose's words, then pulled a towel from her hands.

"There's a difference between talking and having sex, Rose" I mumbled. Then I shut up when I noticed Damian standing beside me. Rose handed him a towel as well. Then we all started walking. I was walking behind Rose and Isaac and Damian was walking behind me. I noticed that Isaac slowed his steps so that he could walk beside me.

"I'm going to need your help tonight" I heard Isaac said. I frowned before turning my head to look at him. This got my attention for sure.

"And what is it?" I asked.

"Rose said that we were planning to go to a club tonight" Isaac explained.

"We were?" I asked. I knew that Rose was listening to our conversation.

"Yeah, I even called Alena and she's going to join us at the club" Rose explained, bringing a smile on my face. "Dean doesn't know, so its gonna be a surprise" she continued.

"What if he refuse to come?" I asked, knowing Dean, we had to think about the possibility of him not coming.

"Then we'll have to find some way to force him" Rose said as if it was the easiest task ever.

"So what help did you need?" I turned my attention back to Isaac. He gave me a sheepish smile. I knew it was going to be something damn annoying.

"It's really childish but I need to do that" Isaac said.

"Tell me" I urged.

"So when I was in high school, there was the most popular girl who dated me" Isaac said. "She dated me only for me to do the homeworks" He said and i nodded in understanding.

"She was using you?" I guessed.

"I let her used me" Isaac explained.

"Why?" 

"For the simple fact that I could tell my friend that I was dating the most popular girl in the school?" Isaac said as if I was stupid. I rolled my eyes then playfully punched his arm.

"So tell me already" I said.

"She's going to be at the club" Isaac said with a smirk. "I want to show her  what she missed and I now can get a better girl than her" He told us with pride. I heard a scoff from behind me.  I turned to look at Damian who was glaring at Isaac. "And you, my little friend, you're going to be that better girl" As soon as the words were heard, Damian's glares intensified and Rose burst out laughing.

"I'm supposed to be your fake girlfriend?" I asked in disbelief. He nodded.

"You can be a real girlfriend, if you want" He said, making me punch his arm again. "Fake girlfriend is good too" He quickly added, making Rose and I laugh. "So yes?" He said with hope. What's wrong with helping him getting back to a Queen bitch?

"Yeah, I'll help you" I told him, making a smile spread on his face. I could hear a sharp intake of breath from behind us. I turned to look at Damian again and he was glaring at me this time. Soon we reached the car where Dean was waiting. "We're going to the club tonight"  I announced happily and watched as his face morphed from happiness to exhaustion.

"We're not" He said.

"We are" Rose said.

"You are. I'm not" Dean explained.

"You are coming too" I said in a way in which he wouldn't be able to argue. He stared at me for a few minutes before clenching his jaws and got in the car. He knew that he wouldn't be able to argue. We all got in the car. Damian was driving and Dean was in the passenger seat while Isaac, Rose and I were in the backseat. Isaac was sitting between Rose and I. I could notice Damian looking at me in the rear view mirror at times.

"Do I really have to go?" Dean asked as Damian started driving. Rose huffed then glared at the back of his head.

"Yes Dean, you can have to go there willingly Or I can drag you there by holding on to your hair?" Rose said, making all of us turn to look at her by how threatening she sounded. "What?" she asked innocently. "He's such a pain in the ass at times" She said, making Dean roll his eyes. I nodded in agreement to what Rose said and it seems like Dean noticed as the next thing I knew, there was a paper ball flying towards my head. For the next ten minutes ride, the car was a real mess.
