The Betrayal Within

Chapter Six (Part Two)

Song of the Chapter: Anything Could Happen by Ellie Goulding

Recap (Francisco's POV):

Everyone was outside taking pictures and the first thing I saw was Jasmine with her dress. Damn, she's beautiful.

"I don't know what to say," I said.

"Help me."

"Admit that you like her."

I sighed. "Fine. I really like Jasmine. Now help me."

"Follow my lead."

Francisco’s POV

“Hey Hispanics,” Jasmine greeted to both Adam and I. When I saw Jasmine, I felt butterflies inside my stomach. I felt like I was getting sweaty by the minute when she smiled at me. I've never felt so nervous before in my whole life. Why does she have to be perfect to me?

Jasmine, you have to be mine.

"Hey guys," Paulene added, interrupting my thoughts about my crush.

"You guys look nice," Adam said, taking my line.

"Hey." I smiled directly to Jasmine, which makes her smile at me back. I felt heat coming from my cheeks. Am I blushing?

Paulene sees me smiling at her and shows a confused look to Adam.

"Anyway, can we take a picture with you guys?"

"Sure," Adam answered. Paulene's friend took Paulene's phone from her to take the picture from her. Noah, my weird yet funny friend from soccer was doing the same thing, grinning towards me.

In the outside, I was cool and calm. In the inside, I was happy as shit like a fangirl getting One Direction tickets.

I stood next to Jasmine just like I wanted. She leaned closer to me and I wanted to put my arm around her or at least touch her ass but I restrained myself, being reminded that I could get killed by her and Paulene.

That moment is over.

Noah gave me my phone back, as well as Paulene's friend, which I think his name is Isaac. Noah nudged me before he left with his other friends, possibly giving me a signal to make a damn move.

Isaac gave Paulene and Jasmine a big bear hug, which surprises me because I didn't know that Jasmine knows him and I'm kind lf jealous that she gives hugs to other guys that I didn't know. Stop being so possessive, she's not even yours.

Isaac left after the bear hug and it remains the four of us.

"Well, we have to go," Paulene informed.

"Yeah, we have to. I'll see you guys never."

I rolled my eyes and she walked towards Adam, giving him a hug first.

Fuck you, Adam.

Then, she turned to me and gave me a hug. You're so beautiful.

I wish I could hug her forever, yet I can't. She lets go of the hug and waved at Adam and I. Paulene did the same thing as well, surprising me because she hates me as a passion.
I don't know why Paulene hates me. Is it because I'm stealing her best friend from her?

Jasmine's POV

Oh. My. Tatum. I hugged my crush! I literally did that! What has gotten into me? Why do everytime when I see him or when I talk to him, I get butterflies like crazy? Ugh, why do I feel like this?

I try not to grin with Paulene here with me because she might think that something's up, even though she knows the issue.

We walked on the sidewalk, going towards the bus stop. People acknowledged me when I was walking because according to Paulene, I'm "popular".

"So," I said, starting the conversation.

"What?"

Jasmine, don't get perky. Don't get perky. "I don't know." A grin was placed on my face. Damn it. Paulene shakes her head, which means that she knows why I got so perky all of a sudden.

"What?" I questioned.

"Oh nothing," she said, smirking at me. We crossed the street and I saw the idiots standing at the other bus stop. Oh God no.

Paulene saw my sudden mood and looked towards my direction. She sighed.

"Why do we always have to see them when we don't want to?" Paulene complained.

I saw the bus coming and everyone was getting ready to get on the bus. The bus came and everyone came in packs. The back door opened and I didn't see Paulene at all. But I saw a person I didn't want to see.

A/N:
Jasmine: Hai readers! Short chapter right?

Paulene: ...

Jasmine: What? I want the readers to wait.

Paulene: ....

Jasmine: Words, Paulene. I don't understand your dots.

Paulene: Huh what?

Jasmine: Now that I have Paulene's attention, what do you, the readers, think what would happen next?

Paulene: Why interrupt my reading of the next chapter?

Jasmine: Paulene, who do you think I saw on the back of the bus?

Paulene: ....

Jasmine: See y'all in the next chapter!

Paulene: Meh.

Be random & meh to the world!
