Wild Space

♥10♥

In my mind, I had only one thing, survive today without any drama.

But, like I said before, that is not the case with me; because Shaun stopped me and smiled at my defiance.

"I am going to be there with you from now on and you are going to act like this to your friend?"

"Shaun, hi..." and I turned again, went straight to my class. There was nowhere else to go. The gym was under preparation for the dance. What more should I do? Everyone was looking at him and then to me. The girls couldn't believe he stopped at the Emo sorry excuse of a human being.

As I got into the sanctuary to excuse myself from school public eyes, I was wrong. The class was unevenly filled with students. Damn! Even my class was decorated in pink puke. Every chair was decorated with a pink heart shape. I stripped mine and sat with my legs up on the table. Everyone looked at me with a glare since I stripped their hard work. Like I care!

Only one thing controlled me. What will happen when I turn eighteen?

The seat occupied next to me belonged to Ryder's, school basketball team captain and kickboxing champion. So, you get the picture; tall, rugged, handsome and a complete womanizer. So, yeah, he was the one who sat next to me. At least, the seat was reserved for him. Since he was never inside the classroom; always, running through the school for this and that, never attending classes but for every exam, he got an A. I, sometimes envy him. Whenever I bunk class, my father or uncle knows about it. In short, when the place got a butt, I curiously turned around to look if I was actually blessed to see Ryder's face next to me before the term ends. But, no such luck and I groaned in frustration.

Shaun occupied the seat and smiled at me cheekily.

"What is your problem?" I bellowed at him.

"What is your problem? I will never mind him following me." Britney, a student in my class exclaimed with her high pitched voice. Ugh!

"And that is why you never get a decent one. You are always floundering your ass." I snapped at her.

"You bit*h..." her piercing voice shook my brain, it seems. I rolled my eyes. Luckily, she backed off with just my stare. I am in no mood to hit a girl now. Shaun winked at her to which she melted. Fuc*ing brat!

"Lily, this is not going to work if you are not going to help me. I need to take care of you. You are my project. Did you forget what happened last night?" somehow when he said project he squirmed and tried to cover up what he just said. Project!? I can't believe it.

"Your project...? What did you just say?" I already angry at my fate that made me live a lie with too many secrets and cryptic messages. And now, with this project thing; I am done!

"Yes, Tom asked me to take care of you. And that is the reason why I am sitting right here with you, now." His voice was silky smooth but I didn't find it attractive like I did when I saw him for the first time. I guess my period was to blame then. I am not sure. I don't know what is happening to me and I don't fuc*ing know what is going to happen to me when I turn eighteen and I am so angry about it all.

"Shaun, you better take your sorry ass of an excuse from me now. I am sure you know what will happen when I turn eighteen. But, you are not telling me so there... is the door."

"Lilly, listen to me; if I could, I will but..."

I literally didn't have any energy left in me. I can't take the heat. I am really drawn out. What will happen to me when I turn eighteen is eating my brain, heart, and soul. When I turned to look out the window, Shaun took my hand in his and squeezed. I do not like touching acts and somehow this angered me so much that I punched him in the face. I think he didn't see it coming. He took my punch and released my hands instantly. But, didn't say anything; his scowl said it all.
