CHAPTER II : SCANDALOUS ATTEMPT
Beth's POV
Two days before the Graduation.
"Brandon, can you please change the music? I'm begging you, It's killing me! " Kesh sarcastically smiled at him. Irritation became much more visible on her face. She was pouting her lips like her usual im-angry-can't-you-see gesture. When Brandon didn't respond, she raised her eyebrow and angrily stared at him.
"Fine. fine. You girls really dont know how to shake that butt off" Brandon yelled at the back of the music.
"If your music isn't lame as it is tonight Brandon, I assure you that my butt.." Kesh paused and gestured her back and then continued, " would be nudging itself to Mr. Hain's twerking dance routine"
Reya and I smiled at her with an approval and she giggled.
Brandon instantly changed the music into Calvin Hariss' song "Summer".
As the music transitionally shifted into a beat, I went back to my table and watched them dance their hearts out. They seem to enjoy the music very much, well thanks to Kesh I guess. Her demanding personality really beat Brandon's coldless boring music. Even Karin and Reya couldn't do anything about it at all. Well atleast i have bestfriends like them. And it makes me happy.
I sat back and relaxed for a couple of minutes. When suddenly,
"Heyyy!! Guess who? " someone covered my eyes which makes me jump on my sit.
"Garfield?" I answered while trying to pull his hands off my eyes. But my weak hands couldn't remove his warm strong hands.
"Do I sound like a talking big fat cat to you now?" He defended though a little annoyed.
"Well .. I dont know. Maybe? " I tried to remove his hands again but then i failed.
"I prefer dogs compare to cats you know. But nice try." He said and laughed.
I dont know why but i find myself on a comfort of someone else's hands. The touch that seems to last, lingers the warmth that fills each and every nerve of my face down to my toes.
"Is this a kidnap or something similar? B'coz i volunteer to come. " I calmly said.
"If it is, why is that so?" He asked.
"Curious are we?" I sharply responded.
"If you dont mind. " He said.
"Well that's because im getting murdered by boredom"
When his contented with my answer, he softly laughed and removed his hands on my face which i hope he didn't. It feels like i already misses his warmth and his soft hands. It takes a minute of silence between us. Until it became two. and three. and four.
Why Isn't he talking? Is he shy now?
Impossible.
After that stunt ? Come on!
Speak up.
Impatient as I am, I turned back and found myself with no one. With NO ONE but air. Well that's new. Im not crazy right?
"Hey there loner" I instantly looked back and found Karin with her sweaty wet hair and big smile.
"Hey .." i forcely smiled and continued, "Can i ask you something? " Her smile immediately fade out and concern polished her face.
